Trial Information

Phase III Trial of Intravenous Zoledronic Acid (Zometa) in the Prevention of Bone Loss in Localized Breast Cancer Patients With Chemotherapy-Induced Ovarian Failure


OBJECTIVES:

- Compare the bone mineral density in the lumbar spine after 12 and 36 months of therapy
with zoledronate, calcium, and cholecalciferol (vitamin D) in women with breast cancer
receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study. Patients are stratified
according to intent to treat with tamoxifen (yes vs no) and node status (negative vs
positive vs unknown [for patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy]). Patients are randomized
to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

- Arm I: Beginning on the first day of adjuvant chemotherapy (or within 3 months after
the first day), patients receive zoledronate IV over at least 15 minutes once every 3
months during months 1-24 and oral calcium and oral cholecalciferol (vitamin D) daily
during months 1-36.

- Arm II: Beginning on the first day of adjuvant chemotherapy (or within 3 months after
the first day), patients receive oral calcium and oral vitamin D daily during months
1-36 and zoledronate IV over at least 15 minutes once every 3 months during months
13-36.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 400 patients (200 per treatment arm) will be accrued for
this study within 24 months.
