Stereotactic Radiosurgery With Abemaciclib, Ribociclib, or Palbociclib in Treating Patients With Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer With Brain Metastases

NCT04585724

Description:

This phase I trial studies the side effects of stereotactic radiosurgery with abemaciclib, ribociclib, or palbociclib in treating patients with hormone receptor positive breast cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metasteses). Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Abemaciclib, ribociclib, and palbociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving abemaciclib, ribociclib, or palbociclib concurrently with stereotactic radiosurgery may reduce the side effects and/or increase the response to each of the therapies.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

      I. Prospectively evaluate safety and toxicity of the combination of radiosurgery (SRS) and
      concurrent CDK 4/6 inhibitors (CDKi) for hormone receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer
      patients.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. Evaluate late toxicity (after 3 months) following SRS and concurrent CDKi. II. Evaluate
      local control efficacy with combination therapy of SRS and concurrent CDKi.

      III. Assess quality of life and neurologic functional outcomes following treatment using
      standardized questionnaire (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Brain [FACT-Br]).

      IV. Analyze overall survival.

      OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 3 groups.

      GROUP I: Beginning within 2 weeks prior to stereotactic radiosurgery, patients receive
      abemaciclib orally (PO) twice daily (BID). Treatment continues in the absence of disease
      progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      GROUP II: Beginning within 2 weeks prior to stereotactic radiosurgery, patients receive
      ribociclib PO once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Treatment continues in the absence of disease
      progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      GROUP III: Beginning within 2 weeks prior to stereotactic radiosurgery, patients receive
      palbociclib PO QD on days 1-21. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or
      unacceptable toxicity.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, 4-6 weeks post
      stereotactic radiosurgery, and then every 3 months for up to 1 year.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Incidence of grade 3+ radiation therapy oncology central nervous system toxicity
Time Frame:At 3 months
Safety Issue:
Description:Rate and frequency of grade 3+ toxicity will be reported. A 95% exact confidence interval will be estimated using the Clopper-Pearson method.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Symptomatic radiation necrosis (late toxicity)
Time Frame:At 6 and 12 months
Safety Issue:
Description:Will be defined as radiographic (typically on magnetic resonance imaging) changes consistent with radiation induced necrosis and the patient presenting with increased neurological symptoms. Rate and frequency of late toxicity will be reported, and a 95% exact confidence interval will be estimated. Symptomatic radiation necrosis similarly will be summarized. The rate of radiation necrosis will be compared with that of our institutional historical control.
Measure:Intracranial failure within treated lesion
Time Frame:Up to 1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:Will be defined by progressive lesion either biopsy-proven or with imaging interpretation concordance by both radiation oncologist and neuroradiologist on serial imaging. The cumulative incidence approach will be used to estimate the failure rates for intracranial failure of treated lesion and distant intracranial failures.
Measure:Distant intracranial failure
Time Frame:Up to 1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:New lesions will be defined by new contrast-enhancing brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging. The cumulative incidence approach will be used to estimate the failure rates for intracranial failure of treated lesion and distant intracranial failures.
Measure:Overall survival
Time Frame:Up to 1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate the overall survival rates.
Measure:Quality of life (QoL)
Time Frame:Up to 1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:Will be assessed by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Brain (FACT-Br) at pre- and post-radiosurgery. Will be summarized using frequencies and percentages for categorical variables, and mean, standard deviation, median, and range for continuous variables. Paired tests such as paired t-tests and McNemar's tests will be considered for comparing QoL outcomes pre- versus post-radiosurgery.
