Phase 3 randomized study of adjuvant anastrozole (A), exemestane (E), or letrozole (L) with or without tamoxifen (T) in postmenopausal women with hor…

2017

515 Background: Uncertainty still exists regarding the optimal schedule of adjuvant treatment of breast cancer with aromatase inhibitors (AI) and no trial has ever compared all the three AI. Methods: FATA-GIM3 is a multicenter, open label, 2x3 factorial phase 3 randomized study of adjuvant A, E and L upfront (UP - for 5 years) or sequentially (SEQ - for 3 years after 2 years of T) in postmenopausal HR breast cancer pts. Two comparisons were planned: UP vs SEQ and A vs E vs L. DFS (including local or distant relapse, second breast or non-breast cancer, DCIS and death, whichever came first) was the primary end-point; 2% at 5 yrs (corresponding to a HR of 0.79) was defined as the minimum diff…

Metronomic chemotherapy (mCHT) in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients: results of the VICTOR-6 study

2021

Abstract Purpose Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents a subtype of breast cancer which lacks the expression of oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2): TNBC accounts for approximately 20% of newly diagnosed breast cancers and is associated with younger age at diagnosis, greater recurrence risk and shorter survival time. Therapeutic options are very scarce. Aim of the present analysis is to provide further insights into the clinical activity of metronomic chemotherapy (mCHT), in a real-life setting. Methods We used data included in the VICTOR-6 study for the present analysis. VICTOR-6 is an Italian multicentre retrosp…

Metronomic chemotherapy for advanced breast cancer patients in the real world practice: Final results of the VICTOR-6 study

2019

Abstract Metronomic chemotherapy (mCHT) refers to the minimum biologically effective dose of a chemotherapy agent given as a continuous dosing regimen, with no prolonged drug-free breaks, that leads to antitumor activity. Aim of the present study is to describe the use of mCHT in a retrospective cohort of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients in order to collect data regarding the different types and regimens of drugs employed, their efficacy and safety. Between January 2011 and December 2016, data of 584 metastatic breast cancer patients treated with mCHT were collected. The use of VRL-based regimens increased during the time of observation (2011: 16.8% - 2016: 29.8%), as well as CTX-bas…
