Beamion BCGC-1: A Phase Ib Dose Escalation and Phase II Dose Optimization, Randomized, Open-label, Multicenter Trial of Oral Zongertinib (BI 1810631) Alone or in Combination With Other Agents for the Treatment of Patients With Advanced HER2+ Metastatic Breast Cancer (mBC), Metastatic Gastric, Gastroesophageal Junction, or Esophageal Adenocarcinoma (mGEAC), or Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC)
This study is open to adults aged 18 years and older with different types of HER2+ cancer that has spread and cannot be removed by surgery. People can take part in this study if their tumours show HER2 aberrations and previous treatment was not successful. The purpose of this study is to find a suitable dose of zongertinib that people with different types of HER2+ cancer that has spread can tolerate best when taken together with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), with trastuzumab and capecitabine, with zanidatamab, or with mFOLFOX6 (with or without trastuzumab). Another purpose is to check whether zongertinib alone and in combination with other treatments can make tumours shrink. Zongertinib inhibits HER2. HER2 causes cancer cells to grow. In this study, participants receive treatment in cycles. Study participants are treated with zongertinib alone or in combination with other treatments. This study has 2 parts. In Part 1, participants in different groups receive increasing doses of zongertinib. In Part 2, participants are put into different groups by chance. Each group receives a different dose of zongertinib. Every participant has an equal chance of being in each group. During the study, the participants visit the study site regularly. In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of zongertinib that participants can tolerate when taken together with other treatments. To find this out, researchers look at certain severe health problems that a number of participants have. The doctors regularly check the size of the tumour with imaging methods (CT/MRI) during the study. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
• Patients ≥18 years of age or over the legal age of consent in countries where that is greater than 18 years at the time of signature of the informed consent form (ICF)
• Cohorts A to K and Cohort O: Documented Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 overexpressing and/or amplified (HER2+), metastatic breast cancer (mBC) or metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma, gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, or esophageal adenocarcinoma (mGEAC).
• Cohorts L (L-ext), M, and N (metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC)): Documented Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression/amplification according to American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists (ASCO/CAP) gastric cancer guidelines and according to the result of local testing.
• For dose optimization and justification (Phase II): Patient must provide tumor tissue from locations not radiated prior to biopsy, if possible, collected through archival tissue
• History of prior treatment lines in palliative setting:
‣ For cohorts A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, I-ext, J, J-ext, K and O documented investigator assessed progression after HER2-directed treatment for unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease (For Cohorts D, H, I (I-ext), J (J-ext) - patients must have been pretreated with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) and have progressed or have been intolerant to previous T-DXd).
⁃ For cohorts L, L-ext, M and N documented progression or recurrence of disease during or following their latest line of therapy. Patients must have had at least one prior line of therapy for locally advanced unresectable disease or metastatic disease (adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy excluded) and documented disease progression or recurrence of disease during or following their latest line of therapy. In the opinion of the Investigator, patients must be unlikely to tolerate or derive clinically meaningful benefit from further standard of care therapy known to prolong survival.
• Presence of at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0 or 1
• Adequate organ function based on laboratory values Further inclusion criteria apply.
