Enalapril Maleate and Doxorubicin Hydrochloride in Treating Women With Breast Cancer
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by National Cancer Institute (NCI), April 2009
First Received: May 7, 2009   No Changes Posted
Sponsor: Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota
Collaborator: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00895414
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Enalapril maleate may help protect heart cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether giving enalapril maleate before or after doxorubicin hydrochloride is more effective in treating women with breast cancer.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying giving enalapril maleate together with doxorubicin hydrochloride to see how well it works in treating women with breast cancer.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Increase or decrease in doxorubicin hydrochloride exposure [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Baseline and serial change in b-type natriuretic peptide, cardiac troponins, and urine microalbumin after infusion with doxorubicin hydrochloride [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Effect of enalapril maleate on the formation of the doxorubicin hydrochloride metabolite, doxorubicinol [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Effect of doxorubicin hydrochloride on intracellular leukocytes and platelets, in the presence and absence of enalapril maleate [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 17
Study Start Date: April 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Arm I: Experimental
Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV over 5-10 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 14 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 1 week before course 2, patients also receive oral enalapril maleate once daily until day 8 of course 2.
Drug: doxorubicin hydrochloride
Given IV
Drug: enalapril maleate
Given orally
Arm II: Experimental
Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 14 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 1 week before course 1, patients receive oral enalapril maleate once daily until day 8 of course 1.
Drug: doxorubicin hydrochloride
Given IV
Drug: enalapril maleate
Given orally

Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine if doxorubicin hydrochloride exposure is increased or decreased with concurrent treatment with doxorubicin hydrochloride and enalapril maleate in women with breast cancer.

Secondary

  • To evaluate the baseline and serial changes in the levels of b-type natriuretic peptide, cardiac troponins, and urine microalbumin after infusion with doxorubicin hydrochloride.
  • To evaluate the effect of enalapril maleate on the formation of the doxorubicin hydrochloride metabolite, doxorubicinol.
  • To evaluate the effect of doxorubicin hydrochloride on intracellular leukocytes and platelets, in the presence and absence of enalapril maleate.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV over 5-10 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 14 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 1 week before course 2, patients also receive oral enalapril maleate once daily until day 8 of course 2.
  • Arm II: Patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV over 5-10 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 14 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 1 week before course 1, patients receive oral enalapril maleate once daily until day 8 of course 1.

Blood and urine samples are collected periodically for pharmacokinetic studies by HPLC with fluorescence detection.
