Summary

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, Phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of margetuximab plus chemotherapy compared with trastuzumab plus chemotherapy in Chinese patients (Mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan) with advanced HER2+ breast cancer who have received at least 2 prior lines of anti-HER2 directed therapy in the metastatic setting (mandatory including trastuzumab).

The primary endpoint of this study is PFS evaluated by BICR. The secondary endpoints are OS, PFS evaluated by investigator, ORR, DoR, CBR, safety and tolerability, the impact of ADA, and the popPK profile

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: Zai Lab (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
• Treatments: Antibodies, Monoclonal; Capecitabine; Gemcitabine; Margetuximab; Trastuzumab; Vinorelbine

• Prior radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormonal therapies are allowed

• Endocrine therapies will not be considered as previous lines of therapy in the metastatic setting.

• Prior neo-adjuvant or adjuvant therapy that resulted in relapse within 6 months of the completion of therapy will be considered a line of treatment for metastatic disease.

• Dose interruptions, delays, pauses during previous therapy, or changes in therapy to manage toxicity will not constitute a new line of therapy provided disease progression did not occur

7. Subject has at least one measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1.

• Cardiac color Doppler LVEF ≥ 50%

11. Subject has a negative test result of pregnancy test at randomization. Women with childbearing potential are promised to take adequate and effective contraceptive measures or abstinence within six months from the start of the study to the end of the study and after the last medication are admitted. Or the women in the study were women with no potential fertility, defined as:

• Women underwent surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral ovariectomy or bilateral salpingectomy), or

• Women ≥ 60 years of age, or

• Women are in the ages ≥ 40 years old and <60 years old, and have been amenorrhoeic for 12 months with the results of follicle stimulating hormone examination were in the postmenopausal reference range per testing hospital.

12. Subject with good compliance and willing to have the follow-up visits

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subject has symptomatic, uncontrolled brain or pia mater metastasis. If subject has known and treated brain metastasis, baseline CT or MRI data within 4 weeks prior to randomization are mandatory to be obtained. Subject should have received brain metastasis treatment for at least four weeks before randomization. If subject needs to use steroids for treatment after randomization, the dosage of steroids (<10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) should be stable before randomization for at least four weeks without relevant neurological symptoms

2. Subject has third interstitial effusion (e.g. massive pleural and ascites) that cannot be controlled by drainage or other means.

3. Subject has local or systemic anti-tumor treatment within 2 weeks prior to randomization, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, surgical resection (major surgery for breast cancer), or target therapy, and endocrine therapy for anti-tumor within 7 days prior to randomization.

4. Subject has any investigational treatment within 4 weeks prior to randomization (including margetuximab)

5. Subject has history of major surgery with unrecovered surgical effect within 4 weeks prior to randomization.

6. Subject has other malignant tumor (complete cured in situ cervical cancer, cutaneous basal cell carcinoma or cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma are not included) within 5 years prior to randomization.

7. Subject has severe and uncontrolled disease, including but not limited to

• Uncontrollable nausea and vomiting, and any other severe gastrointestinal disorders
