Summary
Prospective, randomized, open label, two arms,, phase 0 clinical trial. HER2-negative breast
cancer patients recently diagnosed will be screened for trial participation.
A biopsy will be scheduled the week prior to or the same day as the FDG PET.
Paraffin-embedded tumor samples will be used to evaluate the stainings of Ki67, cleaved
caspase-3 and microvessels, and frozen tumor samples will be used to evaluate SDH staining.
The FDG-PET will be followed by the bevacizumab dose (15 mg/kg IV, single dose). After one
week, the PET will be repeated in order to detect the patients that have experienced FDG
uptake decay.
Right after, treatment with ME-344 (arm 1) or no treatment (arm 2) will start. ME-344 will be
administered at 10 mg/kg on day 8, 15 and 22. Surgery will be performed on day 28 (thus, 4
weeks after the bevacizumab dose, which is considered a safe window for antiangiogenics).
Fragments of the surgical specimen will be collected. Paraffin-embedded tumor sample will be
used to repeat (and compare) the stainings of Ki67, cleaved caspase-3 and microvessels, and
frozen tumor sample will be used to repeat (and compare) SDH staining.
Patients will come off trial in case of consent withdrawal, unequivocal disease progression
is observed, unacceptable toxicity occurs, or in case of intercurrent disease or any other
condition deemed incompatible with continuation in the clinical trial by the investigator.
