Trial of RAD001 in Triple Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

The hypothesis of this clinical research study is to discover if the study drug RAD001 can shrink or slow the growth of Estrogen Receptor/Progesterone Receptor (ER/PR) negative or Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 (Her2 Neu) negative breast cancer. The safety of RAD001 will also be studied. Patients physical state, symptoms, changes in the size of the tumor, and laboratory findings obtained while on-study will help the research team decide if RAD001 is safe and effective.

Clinical Trial Description

RAD001 is an orally administered cell cycle inhibitor with antitumor activity. RAD001, like Rapamycin, binds with high affinity to an intracellular immunophilin, FKBP12 and this complex specifically interacts with the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) protein kinase, inhibiting downstream events such as the initiation of mRNA translation. RAD001 inhibits the growth of a wide range of histologically diverse tumor cells. RAD001 is being developed as a cytostatic agent to delay the time to tumor recurrence/progression or to increase survival in patients with various malignancies. The compound has good tolerability, a partially discovered mechanism of action. RAD001 has the ability to arrest cells in the G1 phase, and the ability to induce apoptosis. RAD001 is being investigated as an anticancer agent based on its potential to act directly on the tumor cells by inhibiting tumor cell growth and proliferation through possible inhibition of the PI3/AKT/MTOR pathway.

RAD001 was shown to have activity in human tumor cell lines originating from lung, breast, prostate, colon, kidney, melanoma and glioblastoma. RAD001 was also shown to have activity in human pancreatic neuroendocrine cells, where induction of apoptosis was reported, as well as in acute myeloid leukemia cells, adult T-cell leukemia cells, diffuse large B cell lymphoma cells, pancreatic tumor cells, ovarian cancer cells, and hepatocellular carcinoma cells. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
