Drug: gabapentin Procedure: quality-of-life assessment |
| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Supportive Care |
| Official Title: | Control of Vasomotor Symptoms in Women Treated for Breast Cancer |
| Study Start Date: | July 2001 |
| Primary Completion Date: | June 2005 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to participating center and duration of hot flash symptoms (less than 9 months vs 9 or more months). Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.
Treatment on all arms continues for 8 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity. After week 8, patients may receive open-label gabapentin at the discretion of their physicians.
Hot flashes are assessed at baseline and then during weeks 3 and 7 of the study.
Quality of life, anxiety, and depression are assessed at baseline and then at weeks 4 and 8.
Patients are followed at week 12.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 408 patients (136 per arm) will be accrued for this study within 18 months.
