Efficacy and Safety of Intrathecal Administration of Thiotepa in Combination With Methotrexate in Breast Cancer With Leptomeningeal Metastasis

Study Purpose

Evaluate the efficacy and safety of Intrathecal Administration of Thiotepa in Combination with Methotrexate via the Ommaya Reservoir in Breast Cancer with Leptomeningeal Metastasis

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Pregnant or lactating women (women of childbearing age must have had a negative pregnancy test within 14 days prior to the first dose; if positive, pregnancy must be ruled out by ultrasound). 7. Patients who are concurrently enrolled in other clinical studies

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06543992
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Leptomeningeal Metastasis of Breast Cancer
Additional Details

This was a II, single-arm, prospective, multicenter study designed to estimate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal administration of thiotepa in combination with methotrexate via the Ommaya Reservoir in breast cancer with leptomeningeal metastasis. The primary end point was iORR [complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)] according to RANO-LM. Scoring based on radiographic assessment in leptomeningeal metastases . A composite score (total score) is calculated and compared with the baseline total score. A 25% worsening in the current score relative to baseline defines radiographic progressive disease. A 50% improvement in the current score defines a radiographic partial response. Resolution of all baseline radiographic abnormalities defines a complete response. All other situations define stable disease. The secondary end points were changes in iPFS, iDoR, ORR, PFS, OS, DoR and exploratory analysis of the relationship between molecular markers and therapeutic efficacy. This study is planned to include 22 patients with leptomeningeal metastasis from breast cancer who meet the entry criteria.
