Brief Summary

Improvements in outcomes with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) have been observed in the last 30 years, however, overall prognosis remains poor with median survival of 2 to 3 years. Long term complete responses are observed only for a minority of MBC patients (2-5%) and MBC remains an incurable disease for most patients. Eribulin is a chemotherapy approved by the US FDA in November of 2010 to treat patients with MBC who have received at least two prior chemotherapy regimens. In this research study, the investigators are looking to see how well eribulin helps participants with MBC in an earlier-line setting. Eribulin works by interfering with cancer cell division, growth and spread.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR was defined as the percentage of participants achieving complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on RECIST 1.1 criteria on treatment. Per RECIST 1.1 for target lesions: CR is complete disappearance of all target lesions and PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference baseline sum LD. PR or better overall response assumes at a minimum incomplete response/stable disease (SD) for the evaluation of non-target lesions and absence of new lesions.

    Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and every 9 weeks on treatment; Maximum treatment duration was 38 cycles/26 months (Cohort 1) and 17 cycles/12 months (Cohort 2)

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and every 9 weeks on and off treatment; Median (maximum) PFS follow-up was 12.6 (27.1) months in Cohort 1 and 12.4 (14.3) months in Cohort 2.

  • Time to First Response (TTR)

    Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and every 9 weeks on treatment; Maximum treatment duration was 38 cycles/26 months (Cohort 1) and 17 cycles/12 months (Cohort 2).

  • Duration of Overall Response (DOR)

    Disease was evaluated radiologically at baseline and every 9 weeks on and off treatment; Median (maximum) DOR follow-up was 12.6 (27.1) months in Cohort 1 and 12.4 (14.3) months in Cohort 2.

  • Percentage of Participants With Grade 1-3 Treatment-Related Peripheral Sensory Neuropathy

    Adverse events were assessed every cycle throughout treatment. Maximum treatment duration was 38 cycles/26 months (Cohort 1) and 17 cycles/12 months (Cohort 2)

  • Percentage of Participants With Grade 1-3 Treatment-Related Peripheral Motor Neuropathy

    Adverse events were assessed every cycle throughout treatment. Maximum treatment duration was 38 cycles/26 months (Cohort 1) and 17 cycles/12 months (Cohort 2)

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
