Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of Cabazitaxel in patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer and brain metastases. This study is designed to assess the feasibility of Cabazitaxel use in breast cancer with brain metastases. Primary outcome: Overall survival from randomisation.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Consent was obtained prior to each patient participating in the trial, after a full explanation had been given of the treatment options, including the conventional and generally accepted methods of treatment. All risks and potential benefits were explained to the patients, and all patients were provided with Patient Information Sheets prior to consent. Patients were given the right to refuse their consent to participate in the trial, and to withdraw at any time. Haematology/biochemistry tests and physical examinations will be performed regularly throughout each patient's participation and follow-up. Patients were checked and asked about any adverse events they may have experienced regularly while on treatment, and during follow-up. Treatment was delayed or withdrawn for any patient unfit to receive Cabazitaxel. Patients were also given emergency contact details for the research team. Patients were exposed to ionising radiation via CT/MRI scans (MRI/CT scans of the brain were performed 6 weekly following randomisation until cycle 6, then 8 weekly until end of treatment. CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis were performed 12 weeks after randomisation, and then 6 weekly until cycle 6, then 12 weekly until end of treatment. Scans were only performed in follow-up if they were carried out as standard care. This imaging schedule was chosen to ensure that significant disease progression was detected, and also to prevent unnecessary imaging.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    CiPHER was opened to recruitment on 10/10/2014 and the first patient was recruited on 06/01/2015. A total of 19 were randomised (13 to receive Cabazitaxel, 6 to receive standard care. The trial was closed to recruitment on recommendation of the TSC in November 2017. The last patient was randomised on 27/10/2017. The end of study date is 25/07/2018.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    19 of the 97 patients screened for the CiPHER trial were recruited. Patients with HER2-negative breast cancer and brain metastases provided consent and were screened to determine eligibility. Patients who met all the eligibility criteria were randomised to either Cabazitaxel or standard care (physician's choice/radiotherapy).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    09 Oct 2013
    Protocol Version 2 - Standard care arm added in addition to treatment arm Study duration extended to incorporate increase in sample size as a result of the additional treatment arm Primary outcome changed as patients may continue to receive treatment beyond cycle 6 CTCAE v4.03 to be used instead of v4.0 Acute toxicity measured until end of treatment instead of 18 weeks Time to radiotherapy removed Time to neurological deterioration removed as this will be captured in the QoL FACT-Br form QoL FACT-Br form added Treatments allocated 2:1 Cabazitaxel:standard treatment Blood sample at end of treatment removed as deemed unecessary
    29 Apr 2014
    Protocol Version 3 - Cabazitaxel will not be distributed directly from Sanofi to NHS sites - details added regarding this. Cabazitaxel crosses the blood brain barrier and should be particularly effective against CNS disease. Progression-free survival (PFS) includes all causes of death and combines them with progressive CNS disease. Time to progression (TTP) only combines CNS disease progression and death due to CNS disease and should therefore be an outcome more sensitive to the advantage of Cabazitaxel. References to SmPC replaced with IB
    21 Nov 2014
    Protocol Version 4 - Inclusion criteria updated to make clear that "previously treated brain metastases with or without surgery +/- radiotherapy does not exclude the patient from this trial". References to sample collection made consistent throughout. Baseline CT and MRI scans and screening assessments to be performed within 28 days prior to randomisation. Anti-emetics table updated
    09 Sep 2015
    Protocol Version 5 - Bone scan - amended to clarify that bone scan should be performed at baseline and only repeated if clinically indicated. Extra cranial imagining scan updated from 8 weekly to 12 weekly to bring in line with standard practices at sites. Full blood count - previously stated that full blood count should be done within 24 hours of day 1 of each cycle, updated to 'taken according to local practice'
    14 Mar 2016
    Protocol Version 6 - ACE-21 form added to baseline procedures Schedule of assessments added for radiotherapy Drug ordering - initial order changed from 18 to 6 vials Inclusion criteria - hormone therapy removed as it is covered in exclusion criteria as 'anti-cancer treatment' Exclusion criteria - GFR updated to state that creatinine clearance can be calculated using CKD-EPI Information added on which events do not need to be reported as SAEs
    17 Oct 2016
    Protocol Version 7 - Inclusion criteria updated so that patients with resectable brain metastases are eligible for the trial. Inclusion criteria updated so that measurable target lesion needs to be 5mm or above (previously 10mm). Exclusion criteria updated so that patients would still be eligible for the trial if they have had up to 2 lines of chemotherapy for extracranial disease since diagnosis of brain metastases. Exclusion criteria updated to allow patients to be on steroids to control CNS symptoms, PI discretion to be used to assess eligibility. Exclusion criteria relating to liver function tests updated in line with the summary of product characteristics. Information regarding dose reduction for patients with hepatic impairment updated. Secondary objective updated to specify which objectives are to be evaluated for RECIST-evaluable patients only (due to change in target lesion size for eligibility). Sentence added to statistical methods section to state that sample size calculation is based on 12 sites.
    07 Mar 2017
    Protocol Version 8 - Reference Safety Information section added to the protocol to explain which RSI is used for the trial and where it is taken from. List of expected adverse events for patients receiving brain radiotherapy added. Contact details of trial coordinator updated.
    18 Oct 2017
    Protocol Version 9 - Information added to dose modifications for clarity regarding patients with hepatic impairment. All references to 'pegfilgrastim' changed to 'neulasta' for consistency (these are the same drug). Pharmacovigilance section updated to reflect that SAE reporting was done with paper SAE forms (rather than an online LCTU pharmacovigilance system).

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Due to the low recruitment rate, the study did not have the statistical power to identify significant differences between the treatment arms. However, treatment was well tolerated in the investigational arm with acceptable toxicity profile.
