Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Dose-finding Study of BP-C1 in Patients With Stage IV Breast Cancer

Study Description

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to estimate the cumulative Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Minimum Efficient Dose (MED) of BP-C1 in the short-term treatment of metastatic breast cancer patients.

Detailed Description: BP-C1, solution for injection 0.05%, is currently being developed for treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer with palliative intent. Active substance of the product, which is a novel platinum-containing anticancer agent developed for intramuscular administration, is a cis-diammineplatinum(II) complexed with a polymer containing benzene polycarboxylic acids derived from lignin. The amphiphilic characteristics of the polymer have resulted in a product with clear and significantly altered and improved properties compared to other platinum analogues, e.g. cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin. BP-C1 preserves antitumour activity of its predecessors (e.g. cisplatin and carboplatin), additionally offering the following advantages that ensure favourable outcome of treatment of metastatic breast cancer patients: * injectable solution (intramuscular) does not cause injection site reactions; * can be administered at home by a nurse or a patient; * has an improved pharmacokinetic profile; * demonstrates efficacy comparable to cisplatin and much higher than carboplatin (in-vitro; in-vivo data); * exerts an additional immunomodulatory activity. In this study BP-C1 will be administered as supportive care to patients with metastatic breast cancer (stage IV), who had undergone at least three lines of chemotherapy. This study will be open-label, multi-centre with a sequential safety design based on 3-level between-patient Response Surface Pathway (RSP) algorithm. The eligible patients will be allocated to five independent sequences, with three patients in each sequence. The BP-C1 treatment period will be 32 days, the follow-up period will be 28 days after the last BP-C1 dose.
