Phase II Trial of Ixabepilone Plus Carboplatin in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer: The ECLIPSE Study
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Ixabepilone and Carboplatin for Metastatic Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 103 participants across 59 sites.
Detailed Summary
Ixabepilone adds significantly to the antitumor effectiveness of capecitabine in both ER+ and triple negative breast cancer. Ixabepilone has substantial antitumor activity in taxane-refractory patients and novel combinations are needed in this poor prognosis population. Carboplatin in combination with gemcitabine or paclitaxel has activity in metastatic breast cancer (MBC); there is also demonstrated activity of the gemcitabine/carboplatin combination in the ER+ versus triple negative subsets. A Phase I study of ixabepilone plus carboplatin in solid tumor patients demonstrated the safety of this combination at the doses and schedule proposed for this Phase II trial (BMS data on file).
