Scalp Cooling in MBC

Overview

This research is being done to compare rates of hair loss of people with metastatic breast who use scalp cooling versus those who do not use scalp cooling after receiving standard of care treatment with either sacituzumab govitecan, trastuzumab deruxtecan, or eribulin. The name of the study intervention involved in this study is: – Paxman Scalp Cooling System

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, controlled, pivotal clinical investigation to assess the efficacy of the Paxman Scalp Cooling System (PSCS) at preventing hair loss in people undergoing treatment for metastatic breast cancer with either Sacituzumab govitecan (IMMU-132 or Trodelvy™), trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201a or Enhertu®), or Eribulin (Halaven®). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the Paxman Scalp Cooling System as a treatment option for preventing hair loss while patients are undergoing chemotherapy. This system has however not been specifically studied to look at its ability to prevent hair loss in patients specifically receiving sacituzumab govitecan, trastuzumab deruxtecan, or eribulin. The research study procedures include: screening for eligibility, photographs, hair loss assessments, questionnaires and study treatment including evaluations and follow up visits. Participants will receive study treatment with scalp cooling with standard of care chemotherapy treatment and will be followed for 2-4 weeks after completion of treatment with chemotherapy. It is expected that about 120 people will take part in this research study. Paxman Coolers Limited is a medical device company and is supporting this research study by providing access to the investigational device, Paxman Scalp Cooling System.

  • Experimental: TRASTUZUMAB DERUXTECAN WITH PAXMAN SCALP COOLING SYSTEM (PSCS)
    • Participants will use Paxman Scalp Cooling System (PSCS) on days 1, 8 and 21 of each of their standard of care (SOC) treatment cycles with TRASTUZUMAB DERUXTECAN. Study cyle is 21 days with total number of cycles based on discretion of treating provider up to 2 years.
  • Active Comparator: TRASTUZUMAB DERUXTECAN WITHOUT PAXMAN SCALP COOLING SYSTEM
    • Participants will not use Paxman Scalp Cooling System (PSCS) during their standard of care (SOC) treatment with TRASTUZUMAB DERUXTECAN. Study cyle is 21 days with total number of cycles based on discretion of treating provider up to 2 years.

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Hair Loss Rate
    • Time Frame: Up to 2 years
    • Hair loss rate defined as CTCAE v5.0 alopecia grade 1 or higher compared in the scalp cooling group using the Paxman Hair Loss Prevention System (PSCS) and group not using scalp cooling.

Secondary Measures

  • Change in Patient Reported Quality of Life
    • Time Frame: Baseline, Day 1 of cycle 3, day 1 of cycle 5, and after completing therapy or at the time of disease progression whichever occurs first up to 2 years. Cycle is 21 days
    • The Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia Distress Scale (CADS) [25] will be used to assess patient reported positive quality of life changes using Paxman Hair Loss Prevention System (PSCS).
  • Change in Patient Reported Quality of Life
    • Time Frame: Baseline, Day 1 of cycle 3, day 1 of cycle 5, and after completing therapy or at the time of disease progression whichever occurs first up to 2 years. Cycle is 21 days.
    • Body image scale (BIS) will be used to assess patient reported positive quality of life changes using Paxman Hair Loss Prevention System (PSCS).

Participating in This Clinical Trial

Inclusion Criteria

  • Men and women with a diagnosis of metastatic invasive breast cancer with a ECOG PS≤2 – Participant is ≥ 18 years old. – Hair present at baseline. – One of the following full dose chemotherapy regimens must be planned for at least 4 cycles: – Sacituzumab govitecan (IMMU-132) 10 mg/kg administered intravenously on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle – Trastuzumab deruxtecan 5.4 mg/kg administered intravenously once every 3 weeks – Eribulin 1.4 mg/m2 administered intravenously on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle – The Paxman Scalp Cooling System must be initiated with the first dose of therapy in participants that elect to participate in the scalp cooling group. Exclusion Criteria:
