Clinical Trial Summary

This is an open-label, randomized, parallel group Phase 2A/2B study to evaluate the clinical activity of ASLAN001 in combination with capecitabine compared with lapatinib in combination with capecitabine in patients with HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer that has failed on prior trastuzumab therapy.

Description:

Phase 2A Design:

The Phase 2A part is an open-label, randomized, parallel group study using tumor size as its primary efficacy endpoint. Approximately 44 eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either ASLAN001 400 mg orally twice daily (BID) or lapatinib 1250 mg orally once daily (QD), both on a background of capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally BID for Days 1-14 of a 21-day cycle. Radiological imaging to assess disease status will be performed at baseline and every 6 weeks until disease progression (as assessed by the Investigator). Patients who have not experienced disease progression after 12 weeks may continue to receive randomized therapy and will continue to have radiological scans every 6 weeks until disease progression.

Criteria to Proceed to Phase 2B:

In the absence of any safety or tolerability concerns, continuation to the Phase 2B part of the study will be primarily based on the statistical comparison of the percentage change in tumor size from baseline to Week 12 and a one-sided p-value <0.1 in favor of the ASLAN001-containing treatment arm would be supportive of continuation to Phase 2B.

Phase 2B Design:

The Phase 2B part of the study will continue to recruit if the pre-specified efficacy criteria are met in the Phase 2A part and if the tolerability of ASLAN001 in combination with capecitabine is considered acceptable.

The Phase 2B part is an open-label, randomized, parallel group study. In this part, approximately 160 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either ASLAN001 400 mg BID or lapatinib 1250 mg QD, both in combination with capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 BID for Days 1-14 of a 21-day cycle.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients with documented histological confirmation of breast cancer with HER 2 overexpression or gene amplification prior to study entry.

• Patients with HER 2-positive metastatic breast cancer that have failed on prior first line treatment with trastuzumab or who have progressed within 1 year of treatment with trastuzumab in adjuvant setting.

• Presence of at least one radiographically measurable disease (bone metastases and ascites are not considered measurable lesions).

• Patients of the respective country's legal age or older at the time of written informed consent.

• Patients with acceptable organ and hematological function

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with radiation treatment or major surgical procedures within 21 days prior to study entry.

• Patients with malabsorption syndrome, diseases significantly affecting gastrointestinal function, resection of the stomach or small bowel, or difficulty in swallowing and retaining oral medications.

• Patients with an uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, diabetes, hypertension, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.

• Patients with any history of other malignancy unless in remission for more than 1 year. (Nonmelanoma skin carcinoma and carcinoma-in-situ of uterine cervix treated with curative intent is not exclusionary).

• Patients with symptomatic central nervous system metastasis and/or on systemic steroids or anticonvulsants within 3 months before the first dose of randomized therapy.

• Patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding.

• Patients who were previously treated with ASLAN001 and/or with lapatinib.

• Patients who have received more than 2 lines of any therapies in metastatic stage.

• Patients who have received any investigational drug (or have used an investigational device) within 21 days or received any antineoplastic monoclonal antibodies within a period of 5 half-lives before receiving the first dose of randomized therapy.

• Patients with unresolved or unstable serious toxicity from prior administration of another investigational drug and/or prior cancer treatment.
