NCT00820924

Brief Summary

The underlying biology of the various patterns of metastasis observed in different tumour types remains unclear. The detection and characterization of circulating tumour cells in cancer patients has provided important new information about the progression of metastatic events. This information has important implications for cancer prognosis and therapy. This multicenter open-label study is designed as a two-stage three-outcome phase II trial. The aim is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily dose of Lapatinib in advanced breast cancer patients with HER-2 non-amplified primary tumours and HER-2 or EGFR positive circulating tumour cells. Evaluation of HER-2 and EGFR status on circulating tumour cells will be performed by the means of the CellSearch equipment (Immunicon, Huntingdon Valley, PA, USA) and FISH method (PathVysion Kit -Abbott Laboratories).

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Female patients at least 18 years old with HER-2 negative breast cancer.
  • Patients must have evidence of HER-2 or EGFR positive circulating tumour cells in a peripheral blood sample taken at screening visit.
  • Patients must have measurable, metastatic disease and no brain metastasis requiring local therapy.
  • Other criteria include ECOG score 0 to 2, life expectancy \> 12 weeks, baseline organ function at screening visit,
  • Previous treatment with anthracyclines and/or taxanes in the neo-adjuvant, adjuvant or advanced setting, and at least one line of treatment for metastatic disease.

You may not qualify if:

  • Unstable medical conditions, pregnant or lactating women.
  • Inability to provide informed consent.
  • Lack of physical integrity of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
  • Co-existing malignancy or malignancies within the last 5 years with the exception of basal cell carcinoma or in-situ carcinoma, concurrent anti-cancer therapies (chemo or hormonal therapy) or investigational drugs other than study drug.
  • Concurrent radiotherapy to the only target lesion or concurrent bisphosphonates if bone metastases are the only target lesions.
  • Previous treatment with anti HER-2 or anti-EGFR therapies.
  • Protocol specified treatment regimens that would be inappropriate for the management of the subject.
