RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of two regimens of irinotecan in treating patients who have refractory metastatic breast cancer.

Drug: irinotecan hydrochloride |
Phase II |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Treatment, Randomized |
Official Title: | Randomized Phase II Trial of Irinotecan (CPT-11) In Patients With Refractory Metastatic Breast Cancer |
Study Start Date: | August 1998 |
OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the antitumor activity and toxicity of two different schedules of irinotecan in the treatment of patients with refractory metastatic breast cancer who have received 1 or 2 previous chemotherapy regimens (up to one prior therapy for metastatic disease and one for adjuvant therapy). II. Compare the time to progression, survival, and quality of life of these patients on these 2 different schedules of irinotecan.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are stratified according to dominant disease (visceral vs nonvisceral), performance status (0-1 vs 2), and prior chemotherapy in metastatic setting (yes vs no). Patients assigned to arm I receive irinotecan intravenously over 90 minutes every week for 4 weeks followed by a 2 week rest period. Treatment is repeated every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients assigned to arm II receive irinotecan intravenously over 90 minutes every 3 weeks for 6 weeks. Treatment is repeated every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Quality of life is assessed before and during treatment. Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, then annually for 1 year.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 42-100 patients (21-50 patients per arm) will be accrued for this study within 3.5 years.
