Published online by Cambridge University Press:  04 December 2006

Abstract

This section provides current contact details and a summary of recent or ongoing clinical trials being coordinated by Gruppo Oncologico Nord Ovest – Mammella Intergruppo (GONO MIG). Clinical trials include:

  1. Standard CEF versus accelerated CEF as adjuvant chemotherapy in node-positive or high-risk node-negative (T > 2 cm, age <35 years, G3, negative hormone receptors or high TL1 or S-phase) breast cancer. A phase III randomized trial. MIG-1

  2. Epirubicin plus paclitaxel versus cyclophosphamide, epirubicin and 5-fluorouracil as adjuvant chemotherapy in node-positive breast cancer patients. A phase III randomized study. MIG-5

  3. A phase III randomized study of sequential epidoxorubicin plus cyclophosp-amide followed by docetaxel (EC D) versus a combination of 5-fluorouracil, epidoxorubicin and cyclophosp-amide (FEC) as adjuvant treatment of node-negative early breast cancer patients.

  4. A phase III randomized study of EC followed by paclitaxel versus FEC followed by paclitaxel, all given either every 3 or 2 weeks supported by pegfilgrastim, for node-positive breast cancer patients.

  5. Prevention of chemotherapy-induced menopause by temporary ovarian suppression with triptorelin versus control in young breast cancer patients. A randomized phase III multicenter study.

  6. Letrozole adjuvant therapy duration (lead) study: standard versus long treatment. A phase III trial in post-menopausal women with early breast cancer.
