Immunotherapy, Hormone Therapy, and AKT Inhibitor for Premenopausal ER Positive MBC

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2025-12-31
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

This is an open-label randomized phase II study in estrogen receptor positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients. The main inclusion population are either luminal subtype B by PAM50 analysis or failed less than 2 lines of hormonal therapy for locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. The subjects have to be premenopausal or perimenopausal and are not allowed to receive any systemic chemotherapy for their locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Eligible subjects will be randomized into goserelin/ fulvestrant (Arm 1, control), goserelin/ fulvestrant/ capivasertib (Arm 2), goserelin/ fulvestrant/ capivasertib/ durvalumab (Arm 3), or goserelin/ fulvestrant/ durvalumab (Arm 4) at a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) of the whole other three arm compared to goserelin/ fulvestrant control arm. The major secondary endpoint will be progression-free survival or ORR compared among different treatment arms.

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

Active infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history, physical examination and radiographic findings, and TB testing in line with local practice), hepatitis B (known positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) result), hepatitis C. Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the presence of hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are eligible. Patients positive for hepatitis C (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV RNA.
