Brief Summary

Despite advances in early detection and treatment strategy, about 25 to 40% of patients treated for breast cancer develop metastasis. Some patients are in a therapeutic impasse situation. It is therefore necessary to consider all possible options. The Estramustine showed encouraging results in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Given the clinical data, the answer rate of Estramustine and its impact on progression free survival deserve to be studied in earlier clinical situation. This Phase II study evaluated the efficacy of Estramustine in women with breast cancer and metastates, already treated with aromatase inhibitors and for whom this treatment has failed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free survival after a 6- month monotherapy with Estramustine in patients with HER2-/RH+ breast cancer progressing

    proportion of patients in progression-free survival (PFS) after a 6-month treatment is defined as the duration of objective response or stabilisation of the disease according to the Recist criteria. The following events shall be considered as progressive : * Relapse * Treatment intolerance leading to stop the treatment * Death

    up to 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Risks of thrombosis

    up to 6 months

  • Clinical benefit of estramustine

    1 year

  • Correlation between the answer rate and biomarkers

    1 year

  • Tolerance of estramustine treatment

    1 year

  • Tolerance of tamoxifen treatments

    1 year

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

  • Concurrent treatment with protocol-defined prohibited medications
  • Malabsorption syndrome , significant digestive dysfunction, gastrectomy, jejunectomy, hemorrhagic recto colon
  • Concurrent disease or condition that may interfere with study participation, or any serious medical disorder that would interfere with the subject's safety (for example, active or uncontrolled infection or any psychiatric condition prohibiting understanding or rendering of informed consent)
  • Any pathology, including severe psychiatric or psychologic disease that may harm patient's safety or participation in the study
  • Serious or not cured or unstable toxicity due to the administration of another drug being involved in clinical trials
  • Uncontrolled cardiovascular pathologies
  • Active uncontrolled infection
  • Existence of an increased risk of thromboembolic event, apart from the metastatic cancer condition, such as:
