Paclitaxel Polymeric Micelles for Injection Versus TPC on the Treatment of HER2-negative Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC).

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2025-07-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This multicenter, randomized, open, parallel positive control study compares the clinical efficacy and safety of paclitaxel polymeric micelles for injection with TPC in HER2- MBC subjects who have failed ≥2 to≤4 previous chemotherapy regimens.

Treatment Protocol: Subjects are randomized into paclitaxel polymeric micelles for injection group and the Physician's Choice (TPC) group by the proportion of 1:1. Randomization is stratified according to three factors: number of lines of previous treatment for metastatic disease (2 or 3/4 lines), receptor status (triple-negative, non-triple-negative), and visceral metastasis (yes/no).

Progression-free survival (PFS) is the main efficacy indicator in this study. Treatment Group: Subjects are given paclitaxel polymeric micelles for injection, three weeks constitutes one cycle of treatment.

Control Group: Physician's Choice Group, subjects are given Eribulin Mesilate injection; or capecitabine tablets; or gemcitabine hydrochloride for injection; or vinorelbine tartrate injection; or paclitaxel (albumin-bound). Three or four weeks constitutes one cycle of treatment.

If subject does not develop disease progression after 6 cycles of dosing, the subject continues treatment until disease progression (RECIST 1.1) or develops an intolerable toxicity, initiation of a new anti-cancer drug, withdrawal from the study, death, or loss of follow-up.

Superiority design is used in this study, progression-free survival (PFS) is the main efficacy indicator. Assuming α = 0.0249(unilateral, adjusted test level), power=80%, the median PFS of the treatment group is 6.0 months, the median PFS of the control group is 3.7 months, the enrollment period is 12 months, and the study period is 24 months. Using PASS (version 11.0) for calculation, a total of 152 subjects (76 in each group) are required to meet the statistical significance between the treatment group and the control group. In consideration of case expulsion, enlarged by 10%, a total of 168 subjects (84 in each group) are required.

6. Subjects who are refractory or relapsed after ≥2 and ≤4 prior systemic chemotherapy regimens or antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) for MBC are eligible(Subjects were eligible for inclusion if their previous chemotherapy regimen included taxanes or not; Subjects using taxanes for adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy more than 6 months after the treatment, and Subjects using taxanes for advanced-stage treatment more than 3 months after the treatment, with recurrence or metastasis are eligible.) Adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy for early-stage disease can be considered as one of the required prior chemotherapy regimens if unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic disease develops within 12 months after completion of the regimen.( Note: Therapies for bone metastases (e.g., bisphosphonates, denosumab, etc.) are not considered prior systemic chemotherapy for advanced disease.)；
