Phase II Trial of Simple Oral Therapy (Continuous Oral Cyclophosphamide and Capecitabine) in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the response rate (complete and partial, confirmed and unconfirmed) in women
with stage IV breast cancer treated with oral cyclophosphamide and oral capecitabine.

- Determine the progression-free survival and overall survival of patients treated with
this regimen.

- Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

- Determine the quality of life of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral cyclophosphamide once daily on days 1-14 and oral capecitabine twice
daily on days 8-21. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 8 courses in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Quality of life is assessed at baseline and then at weeks 7, 13, 19, and 25.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for up to 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 96 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years.

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Response Rate (Complete and Partial, Confirmed and Unconfirmed)

Outcome Description:

Complete Response (CR) is complete disappearance of all measurable and non-measurable disease. No new lesions, no disease related symptoms. Normalization of markers and other abnormal lab values. Partial Response (PR) is greater than or equal to 30% decrease under baseline of the sum of longest diameters of all target measurable lesions. No unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease. No new lesions. Confirmation of CR or PR means a repeat scan at least 4 weeks apart documented before progression or symptomatic deterioration. Progression is 20% increase in sum of longest diameters of target measurable lesions over smallest sum observed and/or unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease and/or appearance of new lesion/site or death due to disease without prior documentation of progression and without symptomatic deterioration. Symptomatic deterioration is global deterioration of health status requiring discontinuation of treatment without objective evidence of progression.

Outcome Time Frame:

Patients assessed at least every six weeks while on protocol treatment

Safety Issue:

No
