Tesetaxel Plus 3 Different PD-(L)1 Inhibitors in Patients With Triple-Negative MBC and Tesetaxel Monotherapy in Patients With HER2-Negative MBC

NCT03952325

Description:

CONTESSA TRIO is a multi-cohort, multicenter, Phase 2 study of tesetaxel, an investigational, orally administered taxane, in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). In Cohort 1, approximately 200 patients with triple-negative MBC who have not received prior chemotherapy for advanced disease will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive tesetaxel plus either: (1) nivolumab; (2) pembrolizumab; or (3) atezolizumab. The primary efficacy endpoints for Cohort 1 are objective response rate (ORR) and progression free survival (PFS) in patients with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) positive status. In Cohort 2, approximately 60 elderly patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative MBC who have not received prior chemotherapy for advanced disease will receive tesetaxel monotherapy. The primary efficacy endpoints for Cohort 2 are ORR and PFS in patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative disease. In Cohort 3, approximately 60 non-elderly adult patients with HER2-negative MBC who have not received prior chemotherapy for advanced disease will receive tesetaxel monotherapy. The primary efficacy endpoints for Cohort 3 are ORR and PFS in patients with HR positive, HER2-negative disease.

Detailed Description

      CONTESSA TRIO is a multi-cohort, multicenter, Phase 2 study of tesetaxel, an investigational,
      orally administered taxane, in patients with MBC.

      Cohort 1:

      Approximately 200 patients with triple-negative MBC who have not received prior chemotherapy
      for advanced disease will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive tesetaxel dosed orally at 27 mg/m2
      once every three weeks (Q3W) plus either:

        -  Nivolumab at 360 mg by intravenous infusion Q3W;

        -  Pembrolizumab at 200 mg by intravenous infusion Q3W; or

        -  Atezolizumab at 1,200 mg by intravenous infusion Q3W.

      Nivolumab and pembrolizumab (programmed cell death protein 1 [PD-1] inhibitors) and
      atezolizumab (a programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1] inhibitor) are immuno-oncology (IO) agents
      approved for the treatment of multiple types of cancer. Two of these agents, atezolizumab and
      pembrolizumab, have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a
      first-line treatment for patients with triple-negative MBC. The primary efficacy endpoints
      for Cohort 1 are ORR and PFS in patients with PD-L1 positive status. The secondary efficacy
      endpoints are ORR and PFS in all patients, duration of response (DoR) and overall survival
      (OS).

      Cohort 2:

      Approximately 60 elderly patients with HER2-negative MBC who have not received prior
      chemotherapy for advanced disease will receive tesetaxel monotherapy dosed orally at 27 mg/m2
      Q3W. The primary efficacy endpoints for Cohort 2 are ORR and PFS in patients with
      HR-positive, HER2-negative disease. The secondary efficacy endpoints are ORR and PFS in
      patients with triple-negative disease, DoR and OS.

      Cohort 3:

      Approximately 60 non-elderly adult patients with HER2-negative MBC who have not received
      prior chemotherapy for advanced disease will receive tesetaxel monotherapy dosed orally at 27
      mg/m2 Q3W. The primary efficacy endpoints for Cohort 3 are ORR and PFS in patients with HR
      positive, HER2-negative disease. The secondary efficacy endpoints are ORR and PFS in patients
      with triple negative disease, DoR and OS.
