Study Summary

This trial is testing the possible anti-cancer effect of pelareorep in combination with chemotherapy and avelumab in treating HR+/HER2- breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 with advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer that has worsened after hormone therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Participants must have good performance status, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use contraception if of childbearing potential, and cannot have other active cancers or certain health conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The BRACELET-1 study tests the effectiveness of pelareorep combined with paclitaxel chemotherapy and avelumab immunotherapy against breast cancer compared to paclitaxel alone or with pelareorep. It aims to see if this combination can better control the spread of cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical reactions from chemotherapy like nausea, fatigue, hair loss; immune-related issues such as inflammation from avelumab; and flu-like symptoms possibly caused by pelareorep.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are there any openings available for participants in this experiment?

"The clinicaltrials.gov website states that this specific trial, which was initially posted on June 10th 2020 and last updated September 1st 2022, is not recruiting anymore. Fortunately, there are still over 3200 trials actively accepting patients at the present moment."

Answered by AI

Have there been any other investigations examining the effects of Pelareorep?

"Pelareorep first emerged as a viable medical treatment in 1997 when it was studied at City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center. Since then, 1192 completed trials have taken place and 935 are currently recruiting patients from across the United States; Miami has notably become a hub for these trial sites."

Answered by AI

What is the extent of implementation for this trial?

"Currently, 19 medical centres are participating in this clinical trial. A few of the more well-known sites include University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in Miami, Carle Cancer Center in Urbana and Ochsner Clinic Foundation in New Orleans. The other 16 locations can be found on clinicialtrials.gov"

Answered by AI

What is the density of participants in this trial?

"Unfortunately, no new patients are being recruited for this trial at the moment. The study was initially posted on 10th June 2020 and its last update was on 1st September 2022. However, there is a wealth of other research studies looking to recruit breast cancer patients (2290) as well as those with Pelareorep (935)."

Answered by AI

For what therapeutic purposes is Pelareorep regularly prescribed?

"Pelareorep is usually employed to battle esophageal neoplasms malignant. Additionally, it has been demonstrated to effectively address conditions such as malignant peritoneal neoplasm, non-small cell lung carcinoma (nsclc), and metastatic neoplasia."

Answered by AI

What potential risks should be considered prior to administering Pelareorep?

"As it is only at Phase 2, there is some data to suggest the safety of Pelareorep but not efficacy. Our team ranks this as a score of two on our scale."
