SCCA Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Expanded Access Protocol of Iniparib in Combination with Gemcitabine/Carboplatin (20100374) (UW100009)
An Open-Label, Expanded Access Protocol of Iniparib in Combination with Gemcitabine (Gemzar)/Carboplatin (Paraplatin) in Patients with ER-,PR-, and HER2-Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer
Status Conditions Phase Study ID
Closed Metastatic Breast Cancer Expanded Access 20100374
NCT01130259
Summary

Purpose:  The following trial is designed to offer pre-approval drug access to iniparib (a PARP inhibitor) in combination with gemcitabine and carboplatin in order to provide potential clinical benefit to patients with ER-, PR-, and HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. This follows an ongoing Phase 3, multi-center, open-label, randomized study of gemcitabine/carboplatin, with or without iniparib, in patients with ER-, PR-, and HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (protocol 20090301).

What is Expanded Access? Expanded access is a means by which manufacturers make investigational new drugs available, under certain circumstances, to treat a patient(s) with a serious disease or condition who cannot participate in a controlled clinical trial. Read more about expanded access.
