Clinical Trials Search.org is a site dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer Clinical research trials and Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer health trials happen in many of localities throughout the U.S.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials typically measure the effectualness of new drugs. The function of the studies / projects is to resolve particular human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for mDs, government agencies, and private sector corporations to discover remedies for all varieties of circumstances, like Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer. Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to obtain healthcare treatment options before they are available to the masses. Some times the participants undergo professional assistance for free of charge, and occasionally they are paid for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer clinical trial. Human subjects often get the best healthcare available for their Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer condition. Dangers are a reality, however, and may include additional or frequent mD visits, healthcare dangers (potentially life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally governed with rigorous guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer



Phase III Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer

For Condition: Neoplasms, Hormone-Dependent,Breast Neoplasms
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): BioMedicines ,
Synopsis: The purpose of this study is to determine whether the first line combination hormonal therapy of an experimental drug, atamestane, plus an FDA-approved drug, toremifene (Fareston®), is more effective than another approved drug, letrozole (Femara®), in delaying the growth of breast cancer in postmenopausal patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, and whether the side effects of the combination are different from the side effects of letrozole.
Details: Breast cancer cells are often very dependent on estrogens to continue to grow. Atamestane blocks the formation of estrogens and androgenic precursors in the body. Toremifene blocks circulating and intracellular estrogens from stimulating estrogen receptors in breast cancer cells. The goal of therapy with atamestane, an aromatase inhibitor, in combination with the estrogen receptor antagonist, toremifene, is to achieve maximal suppression of estrogen stimulation of breast cancer cells. This study is designed to determine whether combination therapy will lengthen the time to disease progression and the rate of objective response compared to single agent aromatase inhibitor therapy with letrozole.
