简要总结
This clinical trial evaluates the benefits of a portable scalp cooling system (PSCS) for improving chemotherapy-induced hair loss in patients with breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and are undergoing taxane-based chemotherapy. The PSCS is a new system designed to reduce chemotherapy induced hair loss. The PSCS is designed as a portable unit, allowing patients to leave the infusion center after chemotherapy is completed and finish scalp cooling at home. PSCS may help improve chemotherapy-induced hair loss in patients with metastatic breast cancer receiving chemotherapy.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Measure efficacy of scalp cooling for patients undergoing taxane based chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Assess safety of PSCS in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer. II. Assess burden on nurses and infusion center team of patients using the PSCS.
III. Assess tolerability of PSCS. IV. Assess hair loss and recovery as assessed by the patient. V. Assess patient quality of life and satisfaction with treatment.

- •Any cutaneous scalp metastases
- •Clinically significant liver dysfunction considered significant as determined by treating physician that would limit the patient's ability to administer the scalp cooling device
- •Clinically significant renal dysfunction considered significant as determined by treating physician that would limit the patient's ability to administer the scalp cooling device

结局指标
主要结局
Success in hair preservation
时间窗: At 4 weeks after completion of the 6th chemotherapy cycle
Hair loss will be measured by the patient according to the Dean Score. (Grade 0: no hair loss, grade 1: \> 0 - 25%; grade 2: \> 25 - 50%; grade 3: \> 50 - 75%; grade 4: \> 75%). Hair preservation was defined as hair loss no more than grade 2.
次要结局
- Tolerability of PSCS(Up to 1 year)
- Burden on nurses and infusion center team(Up to 1 year)
- Patients quality of life(Up to 30 days after the last dose of treatment)
- Hair loss recovery(Up to 1 year)
- Incidence of adverse events of PSCS(At 4 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months following the conclusion of 6 cycles of chemotherapy)
