Filter by:[Background]: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is defined by a lack of expression of both estrogen and progesterone receptor as well as human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2). TNBC is characterized by distinct molecular, histological and unfavorable clinical features despite the high rates of response to chemotherapy. Based on the above reasons, it is important to emergently develop novel therapies and/or treatment strategies to increase treatment efficacies and the survival rate of TNBC. [Rationale]: Overexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/ErbB1) and EGFR mutation have been reported in TNBC and may therefore be a valid target for anti-tumor therapy in TNBC. Afatinib (BIBW 2992) is an ErbB-family blocker that irreversibly inhibits signaling from all relevant ErbB-family dimers. Afatinib has demonstrated preclinical activity in triple-negative breast cancer cell lines and xenograft models of breast cancer, and clinical activity in phase I studies. Based on the assumption that uncontrolled ErbB-signaling is directly related to an increased oncogenic potential in TNBC, the studying afatinib in the neoadjuvant treatment of TNBC patients is important and provides a novel therapy. [Aims] The primary endpoint is to evaluate the pathologic complete response of the combination of afatinib and weekly paclitaxel in TNBC patients receiving neoadjuvant treatment. The secondary endpoints are to evaluate the clinical response and safety of afatinib with and without paclitaxel, and to explore the different afatinib-affecting downstream molecular pathways as well as potential biomarkers predicting the response of afatinib with and without paclitaxel. [Patients and methods]: Patients with TNBC (clinical T2-T3, N0-N1, M0; clinical T1-3, N1-2, M0; or any T4a tumor) and received neoadjuvant treatment will included in this open, label, multi-center phase II study. Our schema is as follows: (1) Afatinib 40 mg per day for 14 days, then evaluation, every subject will go into the following phase no matter whether she had response or not (2) the following phase (the combination with afatinib and paclitaxel): Afatinib 40 mg per day, day 1 to day 21, in combination with paclitaxel 80 mg/m² on days 1, 8, 15 in a 3-weekly course. In addition to the clinical assessment, we will evaluate the potential predictive biological markers of activity of Afatinib with and without paclitaxel and dynamic changes of molecular makers ([serum and tissue samples: before treatment, 2 weeks after treatment, and operation timing]; potential molecules, such as EGFR, EGFR-signaling, FGFR, FGFR-signaling, ERK, p53, NF-κB, and etc. were evaluated through the immunohistochemical stains, mutation analysis, mRNA [RT-PCR], single nucleotide polymorphism analysis, and FISH analysis). In addition, the genetic expression profiles will be compared between afatinib-responsive and afatinib-unresponsive samples. [Expected Results]: The promising clinical activity, tolerable toxicity, and potential biomarkers of afatinib with and without paclitaxel in TNBC patients receiving neoadjuvant setting will be demonstrated. The results from this study can be used to conduct a larger trial that would allow us to confirm or validate the hypotheses generated.
The most important consideration in the design of this clinical trial is to ensure the safe translation of the personalized synthetic long peptide vaccine strategy. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) dictates that initial studies of biologic therapies be performed in such a way that there is a balance between the potential risks and benefits in individual patients. Consistent with these recommendations, the investigators will target patients with triple-negative breast cancer who do not have a pathologic complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. These patients typically have no gross evidence of disease following standard of care therapy (neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery and radiation therapy) but are at extremely high-risk for disease recurrence. Targeting this patient population provides a window-of-opportunity to design and manufacture the personalized cancer vaccines, maximizes the potential benefit from the vaccine as the regulatory networks associated with metastatic disease are not present, and balances risk in this patient population with extremely high risk for disease recurrence but no other treatment options.
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) administered with nab-paclitaxel compared with placebo in combination with nab-paclitaxel in participants with locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have not received prior systemic therapy for metastatic breast cancer (mBC). The safety of single-agent nab-paclitaxel has been determined in previous studies of participants with mBC and the safety data to date suggest that atezolizumab can be safely combined with standard chemotherapy agents.
Evaluate if the two carboplatin containing chemotherapy regimens will reduce the growth of breast cancer cells in women with Stage I, II, or III triple negative breast cancer.
The purpose of this "first-in-human" study of PDR001 was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of PDR001 administered i.v. as a single agent to adult patients with solid tumors. By blocking the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, PDR001 inhibits the PD-1 immune checkpoint, resulting in activation of an antitumor immune response by activating effector T-cells and inhibiting regulatory T-cells.
The aim of this single-arm phase 2 clinical trial is to evaluate the anti-cancer activity of Talazoparib (also known as BMN 673) in patients with advanced breast cancer with specific genetic or tumor genomic alterations. Patients with either triple-negative or HER2-negative breast cancer are eligible.
Study combination use of cisplatin plus romidepsin and nivolumab in metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) or BRCA mutation-associated locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer
A first-in-human sttudy using PCA062 in patients with p-CAD positive solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to determine if GTx-024 is effective and safe in the treatment of patients with advanced, androgen receptor positive triple negative breast cancer (AR+ TNBC).
This is an open-label, Phase I, dose escalation study to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose, maximum tolerated dose, and evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of ABBV-221 in participants with advanced solid tumors likely to exhibit elevated levels of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR).
