Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical response rate to sorafenib when added to existing endocrine therapy in patients with advanced breast cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A pilot Phase II study adding sorafenib to endocrine therapy in 11 patients with metastatic estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer was conducted. Primary end point was response by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) after 3 months of sorafenib. Secondary end points included safety, time to progression and biomarker modulation. The study closed early owing to slow accrual.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All subjects must be female.
* Age ≥ 18 years old.
* Histologically proven carcinoma of the breast.
* Estrogen receptor and/or Progesterone positive disease.
* Metastatic or locally advanced disease.
* Patients on a preexisting endocrine agent for at least 3 months before enrollment.
* Have residual measurable disease after

1. maximal response to endocrine therapy or
2. no response to endocrine therapy or
3. progressive non-visceral disease on endocrine therapy.
* Must be able to provide a tumor block from either the primary or metastatic site, if available.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0-2.

* Prior use of anti-angiogenic agents.
* As judged by the investigator, uncontrolled intercurrent illness.
* Known brain metastasis. Patients with neurological symptoms must undergo a CT scan/MRI of the brain to exclude brain metastasis.
* Treatment with a non-approved or investigational drug within 30 days before Day 1 of study treatment.
