NCT00903656

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential of a Lapatinib plus Caelyx combination therapy as an effective and safe therapeutic regimen with a favourable cardiotoxicity profile, in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer following failure of prior trastuzumab.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficacy of a Lapatinib plus Caelyx combination regimen in the treatment of advanced metastatic breast cancer, in terms of overall response rates (complete or partial response)determined by RECIST

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Safety profile

  • Occurrence of clinically apparent brain metastases

  • Overall survival, progression free survival, clinical benefit (CR, PR or stable disease for at least 24 weeks)

  • Quality of Life

Study Arms (1)

Caelyx/Lapatinib

EXPERIMENTAL
Drug: doxorubicinhydrochloride, Lapatinib

Interventions

Lapatinib 1250mg/d p.o. Caelyx 40 mg/m² i.v. q4w for a maximum of 6 cycles

Caelyx/Lapatinib

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Female patients, age ≥ 18 years
  • Advanced or metastatic breast cancer, histologically confirmed
  • Documented HER2 overexpression (IHC 3+ and/or FISH positive)
  • At least one measurable lesion according to RECIST criteria. Patients with bone-only lesions are not eligible for study entry
  • Documented disease progression
  • Patients may have no more than 1 line of palliative treatment, however prior therapies must include trastuzumab in adjuvant or metastatic setting
  • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
  • Performance status 0-1
  • Cardiac ejection fraction \>= 50% as measured by echocardiogram or MUGA scan
  • Adequate hematology, liver and renal function

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant or lactating women
  • Serious medical or psychiatric disorders that would interfere with the patient's safety or informed consent
  • Severe cardiac disease (uncontrolled angina, arrhythmia, chronic heart failure (CHF) or cardiac disease requiring a device)
  • Ejection fraction below the institutional normal limit
  • Maximum cumulative dose of 360 mg/m2 for doxorubicin and 720 mg/m2 for epirubicin
  • Active bacterial, viral or fungal infection
  • Patients with clinically apparent brain metastases
  • Positivity for HIV, Hepatitis B or C
  • History of other malignancy; patients who have been disease-free for 5 years
  • Concurrent cancer therapy (chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy) or concurrent treatment with an investigational drug or participation in another clinical trial
  • Known hypersensitivity to the study drugs Lapatinib and Caelyx or their excipients
