NCT03324932

Brief Summary

This multicenter, randomized, comparative study will evaluate the efficacy of denosumab to prevent the adjuvant therapy of aromatase inhibitors-induced loss of bone mineral density (BMD) in breast cancer patients with normal BMD. Investigators will compare the inhibitory effects of denosumab on bone loss between participants with normal BMD to whom Letrozole or Arimidex will be administered as postoperative endocrine therapy for stage I-IIIA postmenopausal hormone-sensitive breast cancer and controls.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • percentage change in the bone mineral density (BMD) for the lumbar vertebrae (L1-L4) on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)

    The change is a value obtained by subtracting 1 from the BMD after 12 months/baseline BMD is expressed as a percentage

    12 months after the start of this study

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • percentage change in the BMD for the lumbar vertebrae (L1-L4) on DXA

    after 2, 3, 4, and 5 years

  • percentage change in the BMD for the femoral neck

    after 12 months and 2/3/4/5 years

  • percentage change in the BMD for the radius (an ultrasonic bone densimeter is used)institutions in which ultrasonic bone densimeters are used)

    after 2 and 4 weeks, every 4 weeks thereafter (for 2 years after registration)(only

  • Changes in Ca and bone metabolism markers

    after 24 weeks

  • Appearance rate of morbid fracture in all participants

    up to 3 years

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

AI+denosumab VS only AI

OTHER

We compare AI intake+denosumab injection and AI intake only in patients with normal BMD to whom Letrozole or Arimidex will be administered as postoperative endocrine therapy, and we assess the efficacy of denosumab injection on bone loss by adjuvant endocrine therapy.

Drug: Denosumab Injection

Interventions

AI intake + denosumab injection per 6 months VS only AI intake

Also known as: pralia
AI+denosumab VS only AI

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must meet all of the following items at the time of case registration:
  • Patients with infiltrative breast cancer, aged ≥20 years, meeting the following definitions:
  • Those pathologically diagnosed with stage I, II, or IIIA breast cancer (Cancer Management Regulations, 11th version)
  • Those who underwent appropriate surgery, such as mastectomy and breast-preserving surgery
  • Estrogen receptor (ER)- or progesterone receptor (PgR)-positive patients on immunohistochemical (IHC) staining
  • Females meeting one of the following criteria for menopause:
  • Those, aged ≥55 years, without menstruation
  • Those, aged \<55 years, with amenorrhea for ≥12 months, or those diagnosed with menopause by attending physicians based on the FSH and estradiol levels
  • Those who underwent bilateral oophorectomy
  • Patients in whom the BMD for the lumbar vertebrae (L1-L4) on DXA before the start of this study is ≥-1.0SD of the mean value of young adult females (YAM), and the BMD for the femoral neck is ≥-1.0SD of YAM
  • Patients without lumbar vertebral or femoral fracture
  • Those with an ECOG PS of 0-2
  • Those with adequate organ functions (laboratory data within 4 weeks before case registration)
  • Leukocyte count, ≥3,000/mm3 or Neutrophil count, ≥1,500/mm3
  • AST, ALT, ≤1.5-fold of the upper limit of the institutional reference range
  • +4 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Whether each patient meets any of the following items must be checked on case registration:
  • Patients in whom distant metastasis was confirmed clinically or using imaging procedures at the time of case registration
  • Those with bilateral breast cancer
  • Those for whom postoperative hormonal therapy was started before consenting to study participation
  • Those who received endocrine therapy within 52 weeks before consenting to study participation
  • Those to whom bisphosphonate preparations were intravenously administered within 52 weeks before consenting to study participation
  • Those with the following diseases that may affect DXA
  • Severe scoliosis, immobility, hyperostosis or osteosclerosis of the lumbar vertebrae, calcification of the abdominal aorta, and vertebral disease
  • Those with a history of malignant tumors other than breast cancer within 260 weeks before consenting to study participation
  • Those with dental diseases, such as infectious diseases of the teeth or jaw and tooth trauma. Those for whom tooth or jaw surgery is scheduled within 6 weeks after consenting to study participation (tooth extraction, implantation)
  • Others who are considered to be ineligible by the chief investigator
