Purpose

The purpose of this study is to find out if radiation therapy followed by intrathecal trastuzumab and pertuzumab is safe and will result in improved survival in HER2 positive breast cancer which has metastasized to the leptomeninges.

Detailed Description

      The study is designed as a prospective, single-arm, nonrandomized, open-label, phase I/II
      trial of radiation therapy (RT) followed by intrathecal (IT) trastuzumab/pertuzumab in the
      management of HER2+ breast leptomeningeal disease (LMD). Treatment will be initiated with RT,
      whole brain RT (WBRT) and/or focal brain/spine RT followed by IT trastuzumab/pertuzumab.

Radiation Therapy followed by 10 mg Pertuzumab and 80 mg TrastuzumabExperimentalTreatment will be initiated with radiation therapy (RT), either whole brain radiation therapy or focal brain/spine radiation therapy. Participants will be treated at dose level 1 of 4 with 10 mg pertuzumab along with 80 mg trastuzumab via Ommaya reservoir over 2-5 minutes. Pertuzumab and trastuzumab will be administered sequentially. Participants will be observed 30 to 60 minutes before commencing the next agent.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Confirmation of HER2 positivity. All patients with HER2+ cancers will be allowed to
             enroll if they have leptomeningeal disease (LMD). Patients may be IHC 3+ and/or
             FISH-positive. IHC 2+ HER2 patients are eligible with reflex FISH-positive testing
             with the ratio ≥2.0

          -  Participants may have concomitant brain metastases

          -  Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling is required to document LMD if not documented by
             MRI. Participants are still eligible CSF is negative but LMD disease is documented on
             MRI

          -  Life expectancy greater than 8 weeks

          -  Consent to pretreatment tumor biopsy or retrieval of archival tissue

          -  Normal renal (creatinine <1.5 × upper limit of normal [ULN]), liver (bilirubin < 1.5 ×
             ULN, transaminases <3.0 × ULN, except in known hepatic disease, wherein may be <5 ×
             ULN) and blood counts (white blood cells ≥2.5, neutrophils ≥1000, platelets ≥75,000,
             hemoglobin ≥8)

          -  LVEF >50%

          -  KPS >/= 60

          -  Patients with surgery within 14 days should have recovered from all effects of the
             surgery and be cleared by their surgeon

          -  There is no limit on prior systemic or IT therapies

             reservoir placement

          -  Women of childbearing potential and sexually active males must commit to the use of
             effective contraception while on study. Contraception methods should start a minimum
             of 14 days before the first administration of study drug and continue for the duration

          -  Significant medical or psychiatric illness that would interfere with compliance and
             ability to tolerate treatment as outlined in the protocol

Healthy Volunteers:No

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Phase 1: Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Intrathecal (IT) pertuzumab in combination with IT trastuzumab
Time Frame:Up to 12 weeks per dosing cohort
Safety Issue:
Description:MTD will be determined by testing increasing doses or pertuzumab beginning at 10 mg increasing to 20 mg, 40 mg and 80 mg, along with a fixed dose of 80 mg Trastuzumab.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Response Rate
Time Frame:Up to 1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:All patients included in the study will be assessed for response to treatment. Each patient will be assigned one of the following categories: 1) Complete Response,2) Partial Response, 3) Stable Disease, 4) Progressive Disease, 5) Early death due to disease, 6) Early death due to toxicity 7)Early death due to unknown cause. Participants in categories 4 through 6 would be considered as failing to respond to treatment.
Measure:Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame:Up to 1 year
Safety Issue:
Description:PFS measured from the date of first treatment to the date of first observation of Progressive Disease (PD), nonreversible neurologic progression, or death due to any cause
