  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Participants With Treatment-Emergent Toxicities With a Frequency >=20% at 3 Months Post Chemotherapy [Month 7]

      Toxicities are summarized using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) terms. Participants with treatment-emergent toxicities with a frequency of >=20% in any treatment arm, and participants with at least one toxicity are reported. Taxane subsets (ABI-007 subset and Taxol subset treatment arms) summarize participants with treatment-emergent toxicities defined as any AEs that begin or worsen in severity grade after the start of taxane treatment (cycle 5, week 9) through 30 days after the last dose of taxane (week 20) and were ongoing 3 months after chemotherapy (month 7). Entire regiments (AC --> ABI-007 and AC --> Taxol treatment arms) summarize participants with treatment-emergent toxicities defined as any AEs that begin or worsen in severity grade after the start of chemotherapy (cycle 1, week 1) through 30 days after the last dose of chemotherapy (week 20) and were ongoing 3 months after chemotherapy (month 7).

    2. Participants With Treatment-Emergent Toxicities With a Frequency >=20% at 6 Months Post Chemotherapy [Month 10]

      Toxicities are summarized using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) terms. Participants with treatment-emergent toxicities with a frequency of >=20% in any treatment arm, and participants with at least one toxicity are reported. Taxane subsets (ABI-007 subset and Taxol subset treatment arms) summarize participants with treatment-emergent toxicities defined as any AEs that begin or worsen in severity grade after the start of taxane treatment (cycle 5, week 9) through 30 days after the last dose of taxane (week 20) and were ongoing 6 months after chemotherapy (month 10). Entire regiments (AC --> ABI-007 and AC --> Taxol treatment arms) summarize participants with treatment-emergent toxicities defined as any AEs that begin or worsen in severity grade after the start of chemotherapy (cycle 1, week 1) through 30 days after the last dose of chemotherapy (week 20) and were ongoing 6 months after chemotherapy (month 10).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. The Cumulative Dose of Taxane Delivered During Study [approximately week 9-16]

      The cumulative dose of taxane (Taxol or ABI-007) taken during the study (cycles 4-8 which is approximately weeks 9-16).

    2. Mean Taxane Dose Intensity Per Week [approximately week 9-16]

      Cumulative taxane (ABI-007 or Taxol) dose divided by the number of weeks on taxane treatment.

    3. Percent of Protocol Taxane Dose [approximately week 9-16]

      Percent of the protocol-defined taxane (ABI-007 or Taxol) dose that was actually taken by study participants.

    4. Summary of Participant Treatment Exposure, Dose Interruptions, Dose Reductions, and Dose Delays [up to Week 46]

      Counts of participants who completed the protocol-defined treatment cycles, had a dose interruption had a dose reduction had a dose delay. A dose delay refers to the delay of all interventions in the cycle. Dose modifications are typically caused by clinically significant laboratory abnormalities and /or treatment emergent adverse events/toxicities. Use of pegfilgrastim is included in the summary.

    5. Myelosuppression During Taxane Dosing Cycles [Weeks 9-16]

      Myelosuppression represented by neutropenia (low absolute neutrophil counts (ANC)) with severity grades according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE). Grade 1 = <lower limit of normal (LLN)-1.5*10^9/L Grade 2 = <1.5 - 1.0*10^9/L Grade 3 = <1.0 - 0.5*10^9/L Grade 4 = <0.5*10^9/L Values are reported across all severity grades without assessment of relationship to taxane treatment, and also by relation to taxane treatment as reported by investigators.

    6. Change From Baseline in Percent Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (% LVEF) at the Final Evaluation [up to week 46]

      Decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is an indication of cardiotoxicity. Change from baseline measurements to the final evaluation are summarized.

    7. Summary of Participants' Most Severe Grade for Liver and Renal Function Laboratory Adverse Experiences During Study (All Treatment Cycles) [Week 1 up to week 50]

      Summary of the most severe grades using the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE) for the following liver and renal function tests. Grade 0 = within normal range for all measurements. Alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST): Grade 1 = > upper limit of normal (ULN) - 2.5*ULN Grade 2= >2.5-5.0*ULN Grade 3= >5.0-20.0*ULN Grade 4= >20.0*ULN Bilirubin: Grade 1= >ULN - 1.5*ULN Grade 3= >3.0 - 10.0*ULN Creatinine: - Grade 1= >ULN - 1.5*ULN

    Inclusion Criteria:

    A patient was eligible for inclusion in this study only if all of the following criteria were met:

    1. Female, age greater than or equal to 18 to less than or equal to 70 years old.

    2. Estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status have been determined.

This completion axillary dissection was optional if 1 out of 2 or more sentinel lymph nodes was positive for a micrometastasis. Therefore if 1 of 1 sentinel lymph node was positive for micrometastasis(0.2-2 mm), then a completion axillary dissection was required.

    T1b,c,N0M0 and ER or PR positive and grade 1 or 2 Tx tumors (regardless of nodal status) T4 disease [i.e., patients with fixed tumors, peau d'orange skin changes, skin ulcerations, or inflammatory changes

    • Note: Sentinel lymph node micrometastasis < 0.2 mm in considered N0 disease
    1. Negative surgical margins on lumpectomy or mastectomy specimen (no ink on invasive cancer and no ink on ductal carcinoma in situ [DCIS]).

    2. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1

    3. Normal electrocardiogram (ECG, as assessed by the investigator).

    4. No pre-existing peripheral neuropathy.

    1. All staging studies including physical exam, chest x-ray, and bone scan had to show no evidence of metastatic disease, including suspicious lymphadenopathy or skin nodules on physical exam. A chest x-ray and bone scan were mandatory; however, all other staging studies were at the treating physician's discretion. Any other staging test (eg, Computed Tomography [CT] scans, magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] studies, ultrasound of abdomen, Positron Emission Tomography [PET] scans must have been negative for metastatic disease. An abdominal CT scan or PET scan was mandatory for patients with liver function tests elevated above the upper limit of normal (ULN) to rule out metastatic disease. If the patient had a staging PET scan then a bone scan was not necessary, but a chest x-ray was required.
