Hyperthermia and Olaparib in Treating Breast Cancer Patients With Chest Wall Recurrences

• Status: Active, not recruiting
• Trial end date: 2023-10-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of olaparib when given with hyperthermia in treating patients with breast cancer that has come back in the chest wall. Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hyperthermia treatment may kill or damage tumor cells by heating them to several degrees above normal body temperature. Giving olaparib and hyperthermia treatment may work better in treating patients with breast cancer that has come back in the chest well compared to standard of care.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: Thomas Jefferson University
• Collaborator: AstraZeneca

• Body mass index (BMI): 15 to 50 at the time of consent

• Postmenopausal or evidence of non-childbearing status for women of childbearing potential: negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 28 days of initiating study treatment and confirmed prior to treatment on day 1 and willingness to use effective contraception during study treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose of study drug. Postmenopausal is defined as:

• Amenorrhea for 1 year or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal treatments

• Luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the post menopausal range for women under 50

• Radiation-induced oophorectomy with last menses > 1 year ago

• Chemotherapy-induced menopause with > 1 year interval since last menses

• Surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy)

Exclusion Criteria:

• As judged by the investigator, any evidence of non-compliance which in the investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the trial

• Patients with rapidly progressing disease

• Metastatic disease should not be progressing so as to require systemic treatment within 4 weeks of enrollment based on clinical assessment by the investigator

• Metastatic disease should not be progressing so as to require palliative treatment within 4 weeks of enrollment based on clinical assessment by the investigator

• Other malignancy unless curatively treated with no evidence of disease for >= 5 years except: adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in situ cancer of the cervix, ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), stage 1, grade 1 endometrial carcinoma

• Resting electrocardiogram (EKG) indicating uncontrolled, potentially reversible cardiac conditions, as judged by the investigator (e.g. unstable ischemia, uncontrolled symptomatic arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, corrected QT interval by Fridericia [QTcF] prolongation > 500 ms, electrolyte disturbances, etc.), or patients with congenital long QT syndrome

• Persistent toxicities caused by previous cancer therapy >= grade 2, excluding alopecia and neuropathy

• Patients with current or previous diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia or with features suggestive of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

• Patients with symptomatic uncontrolled brain metastases or spinal cord metastases. A scan to confirm the absence of brain metastases is not required. The patient can receive a stable dose of corticosteroids before and during the study as long as these were started at least 4 weeks prior to treatment. Patients with spinal cord compression unless considered to have received definitive treatment for this and evidence of clinically stable disease for 28 days

• Patients considered a poor medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical disorder, non-malignant systemic disease or active, uncontrolled infection. Examples include, but are not limited to, uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 3 months) myocardial infarction, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, unstable spinal cord compression, superior vena cava syndrome, extensive interstitial bilateral lung disease on high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan or any psychiatric disorder that prohibits obtaining informed consent

• Patients unable to swallow orally administered medication and patients with gastrointestinal disorders likely to interfere with absorption of the study medication

• Immunocompromised patients, e.g., patients who are known to be serologically positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

• Any previous treatment with PARP inhibitor, including olaparib

• Subjects with a known hypersensitivity to olaparib or any of the excipients of the product

• Patients with a known hypersensitivity to hyperthermia

• Patients receiving any systemic chemotherapy or radiotherapy (except for palliative reasons) within 3 weeks prior to study treatment

• Concomitant use of known strong CYP3A inhibitors (e.g. itraconazole, telithromycin, clarithromycin, protease inhibitors boosted with ritonavir or cobicistat, indinavir, saquinavir, nelfinavir, boceprevir, telaprevir) or moderate CYP3A inhibitors (e.g. ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, diltiazem, fluconazole, verapamil).
