Metastatic Breast Cancer | Drug: Trastuzumab deruxtecan Drug: Durvalumab Drug: Paclitaxel Drug: Capivasertib Drug: Anastrozole Drug: Fulvestrant Drug: Capecitabine | Phase 1 |
This study is modular in design allowing assessment of the safety, tolerability, PK and preliminary anti-tumour activity of T-DXd in combination with other therapies. Combination-treatment modules will have 2 parts: a dose-finding phase (Part 1), and a dose expansion phase (Part 2); the Part 2 dose-expansion phase will use the RP2D determined in Part 1.
The target population of interest in this study is patients with HER2-low (IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH -) (as per ASCO/CAP 2018 guidelines) advanced/MBC. Part 1 of each module will enroll patients with locally confirmed HER2-low advanced/MBC in second-line or later (≥ 2L) settings
Part 2 of each module will enroll patients with HER2-low MBC who have either not received prior treatment, or received only 1 prior treatment (depending on the module-specific exclusion criteria) for advanced/metastatic disease
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Actual Enrollment : | 139 participants |
Allocation: | Non-Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Parallel Assignment |
Intervention Model Description: | The study will initially consist of 5 treatment modules, each of which includes T-DXd in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Each module will have 2 parts: a dose-finding phase (Part 1) and a dose-expansion phase (Part 2). The Part 2 dose-expansion phase will use the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the combination, either as determined in Part 1 or from another clinical study if appropriate. For each module, patients will be centrally assigned to one of the open modules, as per the module specific criteria. In addition to safety and tolerability, this study will also assess ORR, PFS, DoR, and OS for each treatment combination. |
