A Study of Tucatinib vs. Placebo in Combination With Ado-trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) for Patients With Advanced or Metastatic HER2+ Breast Cancer

NCT03975647

Description:

This study is being done to see if tucatinib with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) works better than T-DM1 alone to help patients who have a specific type of breast cancer called HER2 positive breast carcinoma. The breast cancer in this study is either metastatic (spread into other parts of the body) or cannot be removed completely with surgery. Patients in this study will be randomly assigned to get either tucatinib or placebo (a pill with no medicine). This is a blinded study, so neither patients nor their doctors will know whether a patient gets tucatinib or placebo. All patients in the study will get T-DM1, a drug that is often used to treat this cancer. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Patients will swallow tucatinib pills or placebo pills two times every day. Patients will get T-DM1 injections from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle.

Purpose

This study is being done to see if tucatinib with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) works better than T-DM1 alone to help patients who have a specific type of breast cancer called HER2 positive breast carcinoma. The breast cancer in this study is either metastatic (spread into other parts of the body) or cannot be removed completely with surgery. Patients in this study will be randomly assigned to get either tucatinib or placebo (a pill with no medicine). This is a blinded study, so neither patients nor their doctors will know whether a patient gets tucatinib or placebo. All patients in the study will get T-DM1, a drug that is often used to treat this cancer. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Patients will swallow tucatinib pills or placebo pills two times every day. Patients will get T-DM1 injections from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle.

Detailed Description

      This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tucatinib in combination with
      T-DM1 in subjects with unresectable locally-advanced or metastatic HER2+ breast cancer who
      have had prior treatment with a taxane and trastuzumab in any setting. Prior pertuzumab
      treatment is permitted, but not required. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 manner to
      receive 21-day cycles of either tucatinib or placebo in combination with T-DM1.

      While on study treatment, subjects will be assessed for progression every 6 weeks for the
      first 24 weeks, and every 9 weeks thereafter, irrespective of dose holds or interruptions.
      Study treatment will continue until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, withdrawal of
      consent, or study closure. After completion of study treatment and after occurrence of
      disease progression, subjects in both arms of the study will continue to be followed for
      survival until study closure or withdrawal of consent.

                    1. Brain metastases previously treated with local therapy may either be stable
                       since treatment or may have progressed since prior local CNS therapy,
                       provided that there is no clinical indication for immediate re-treatment
                       with local therapy
