Trial Outcomes & Findings for Palbociclib / Letrozole or Fulvestrant in African American Women With HR+ HER2- Breast Cancer (NCT NCT02692755)

NCT ID: NCT02692755

Last Updated: 2021-09-28

Results Overview

For study purpose febrile neutropenia will be defined according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0: "ANC less than 1000/mm3 with a single temperature of \>38.3 degrees Celsius (101 degrees Fahrenheit) or a sustained temperature of 38 degrees Celsius (100.4 degrees Fahrenheit) for more than one hour." Planned oncology therapy is defined as completion of one year of therapy for advanced breast cancer in the absence of disease progression or cessation of study drug due to progressive disease or non-hematological toxicity.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 weeks

Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR), for those with evaluable disease, defined as the percentage of patients who achieved complete response, partial response and stable disease. RECIST 1.1 was used as the standard way to measure response to treatment. The mean (SD) of specific metabolites were calculated at each time point and graphically assess these measures over time with clinical response and hematological toxicity. The mean change in these variables from baseline to each follow-up point was be calculated. Generalized linear model was utilized for the correlative analysis of clinical response and hematologic events.
