Temsirolimus Plus Neratinib for Patients With Metastatic HER2-Amplified or Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Completed · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: Breast Cancer

In brief

This is an open-label, single arm, multi-center, multi-national, adaptive design, dose-escalation Phase 1/2 study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of temsirolimus with daily neratinib, and to determine the safety and efficacy of this combination when given to patients with advanced breast carcinoma, specifically trastuzumab-refractory HER2-amplified disease or triple-negative disease.

You may qualify if…

• Phase I HER2-amplified Cohort
• HER2 overexpression and/or amplification as determined by immunohistochemistry (3+) or fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) (≥2.0)
• Previously received trastuzumab as part of a regimen in the adjuvant or metastatic setting with evidence of progression. Washout period for trastuzumab of 14 days.
• May have previously received lapatinib as part of a regimen in the adjuvant or metastatic setting with evidence of progression of disease. Washout period for lapatinib of 14 days.
• Radiographic progression of disease while on treatment with trastuzumab or lapatinib as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria.
• No restriction on prior chemotherapy regimens for advanced stage disease. No restriction for prior hormonal therapy. No concurrent use of endocrine therapy is permitted.
• Phase II HER2-amplified Cohort
• HER2 overexpression and/or amplification as determined by immunohistochemistry (3+) or FISH (≥2.0).
• Previously received trastuzumab as part of a regimen in the adjuvant or metastatic setting with evidence of progression. Washout period for trastuzumab of 14 days.
• May have previously received lapatinib as part of a regimen in the adjuvant or metastatic setting with evidence of progression of disease. Washout period for lapatinib of 14 days.
• Radiographic progression of disease while on treatment with trastuzumab as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria.
• Prior therapy inclusion: no more than four prior chemotherapy regimens allowed for advanced stage disease. No restriction for prior hormonal therapy. No concurrent use of endocrine therapy is permitted.
• Phase II Triple-negative Cohort - As of 2/10/12, this cohort is closed to accrual
• Invasive adenocarcinoma negative for estrogen receptor (<5%) and progesterone receptor (<5%) expression and a lack of HER2 overexpression and/or amplification as determined by immunohistochemistry (<3+) or FISH (<2.0).
• Prior therapy inclusion: no more than four prior chemotherapy regimens allowed for advanced stage disease. No restriction for prior hormonal therapy. No concurrent use of endocrine therapy is permitted.
• Phase II HER2-Positive Cohort with dose escalation
• HER2 overexpression and/or amplification as determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) (3+) or FISH (≥2.0).
• Previously received trastuzumab as part of a regimen in the adjuvant or metastatic setting with evidence of progression. Washout period for trastuzumab of 14 days.
• May have previously received lapatinib as part of a regimen in the adjuvant or metastatic setting with evidence of progression of disease. Washout period for lapatinib of 14 days.
• Radiographic progression of disease while on treatment with trastuzumab as defined by RECIST v 1.1.
• Prior therapy inclusion: no restriction on prior chemotherapy regimens for advanced stage disease. No restriction for prior hormonal therapy. No concurrent use of endocrine therapy is permitted.
• Inclusion Criteria for all subjects (HER2-Amplified and Triple-negative)
• Patients with a diagnosis of invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast confirmed by histology or cytology at MSKCC.
• Metastatic disease that is or has been pathologically documented.
• At least one measurable metastatic lesion according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Ascites, pleural effusions, and bone metastases are not considered measurable. Minimum indicator lesion size ≥ 10 mm by helical CT or ≥ 20 mm by conventional techniques.

You may not qualify if…

• Potential subjects will be excluded from enrollment into this study if they meet any of the following criteria:
• Patients receiving any concurrent anticancer therapy or investigational agents with the intention of treating breast cancer.
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to neratinib or temsirolimus.
• Unable to consent to biopsy of metastatic disease or for whom a biopsy would be medically unsafe.
• Women who are pregnant or breast feeding.
• Life expectancy <3 months.
• Completion of previous chemotherapy regimen <3 weeks prior to the start of study treatment. Prior hormonal therapy must be discontinued prior to treatment start. Biologic therapy with bevacizumab for the treatment of metastatic disease must be discontinued ≥3 weeks from the start of protocol treatment.
• Concurrent radiotherapy is not permitted for disease progression on treatment on protocol, but might be allowed for pre-existing non-target lesions with approval from the principal investigator of the trial.
• Concurrent medical conditions which may increase the risk of toxicity, including ongoing or active infection, history of significant bleeding disorder unrelated to cancer (congenital bleeding disorders, acquired bleeding disorders within one year), HIV-positive or active hepatitis.
• History of clinically significant or uncontrolled cardiac disease, including congestive heart failure, angina, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, and left ventricular ejection fraction less than 50% measured by a multigated blood pool imaging of the heart (MUGA scan) or an echocardiogram (ECHO).
• QT corrected interval > 0.47 seconds.
• Patients with GI tract disease resulting in an inability to take oral medication, malabsorption syndrome, a requirement for IV alimentation, prior surgical procedures affecting absorption, or uncontrolled inflammatory GI disease.
• History of an invasive second primary malignancy diagnosed within the previous 3 years, except for stage I endometrial or cervical carcinoma or prostate carcinoma treated surgically, and non-melanoma skin cancer.
• History of uncontrolled seizures, central nervous system disorders or psychiatric disability judged by the investigator to be clinically significant, precluding informed consent, or interfering with compliance of oral drug intake.
• Unwillingness to give written informed consent, unwillingness to participate, or inability to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study. Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests and other study procedures are necessary to participation in this clinical trial.
