Trial Outcomes & Findings for Paclitaxel, Trastuzumab, and Pertuzumab in the Treatment of Metastatic HER2-Positive Breast Cancer (NCT NCT01276041)

NCT ID: NCT01276041

Last Updated: 2020-08-03

Results Overview

Patients who are considered progression-free at 6 months are deemed successes. Failures are those patients who progressed before the 6 month mark. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions

Interval 75.0 to 93.0

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: every 4th cycle CT of chest and abdomen +/- pelvis up to 24 months

Extent of disease evaluation will consist of a CT of chest and abdomen +/- pelvis. Bone scan and PET are optional. Every 4th cycle, this can be done within +/- 2 weeks. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.",

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline and every 4th cycle of treatment up to 24 months

We will also assess the LVEF at baseline and after every 4th cycle of treatment with an ECHO with a strain imaging analysis. When an ECHO cannot be done, a MUGA scan may be done.Patients who have surpassed the 6 month period may complete ECHO with strain imaging analysis or MUGA every 6 months +/- 1 month starting from the most recent ECHO scan date. This study will use the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) AE version 4.0 for toxicity.
