Defining the HER2 Positive (+) Breast Cancer Kinome Response to Trastuzumab, Pertuzumab, Combination Trastuzumab +Pertuzumab, or Combination Trastuzumab + Lapatinib

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2016-12-19
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

Kinases are a group of proteins that are important in how cancer cells grow. HER2 is a kind of kinase. This study looks at a new approach to identifying kinases, which may help target therapy more precisely.

LCCC1214 is a randomized, multiarm, multicenter, open-label window trial designed to explore the kinome response in Stage I-IV HER2 positive (HER2+) breast cancer patients scheduled to undergo definitive surgery (either lumpectomy, mastectomy or surgical resection of oligometastatic disease). Patients will initiate dosing with either a single HER2-directed agent or a combination of two HER2-directed agents, one week prior to surgery. Forty patients will be randomized to one of four study groups:

A) single dose trastuzumab; B) single dose pertuzumab; C) combination single dose trastuzumab plus single dose pertuzumab; or D) combination single dose trastuzumab plus lapatinib daily for 7 days.

Pre- and post- dosing tissue will be analyzed for kinome response and resistant signatures. The initiation of study drug will be defined by the surgical schedule; there will be no delays in standard treatment for the purposes of this study.

• Sufficient fresh or frozen tissue remaining from pre-treatment core biopsy/ incisional biopsy or willing to undergo biopsy (at UNC via LCCC9819) for research purposes only (approximately 10mg or one core's worth of tissue needed)

• Surgeon and medical oncologist agree one week window trial is appropriate/safe for the patient and that surgery appointment can accommodate treatment schedule as outlined in the study schema (section 4.1).

• UNC patients must co-enroll into LCCC9819 for collection of tissue samples

Exclusion Criteria:

• Pregnant or lactating female

• Prior radiation therapy to the target lesion

• Use of any investigational drug within 28 days or five half-lives, whichever is shorter, prior to the first dose of study medication; a minimum of 10 days between termination of the investigational drug and treatment with study medication is required

• Any major radiotherapy, tumor-directed systemic or immunotherapy within the last 4 weeks for any indication

• Candidate for therapeutic neoadjuvant treatment

• Active infection

• Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases (e.g., unstable or uncompensated respiratory, hepatic, renal, or cardiac disease)

• Known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to the study drugs

• Psychological, familial, sociological, or geographical conditions that do not permit compliance with the protocol

• Any other concurrent condition that in the investigator's opinion would jeopardize compliance with the protocol
