Phase 1b/2, Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Expansion Modular Study To Explore the Safety, Tolerability, and Anti-tumor Activity of HER3- DXd Monotherapy and Combinations in Patients With Inoperable Advanced Breast Cancer (ABC) After Progression on T-DXd
ICARUS-BREAST02 is an open-label, multicenter, phase 1b/2, platform study that aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of HER3-DXd monotherapy and in combination with other anti-cancer agents in patients with ABC. The first 2 modules will evaluate: i. safety and efficacy of HER3-DXd with olaparib in patients with HER2-low and HER2-positive ABC progressed on T-DXd (Module 1) and HER3-DXd monotherapy in patients with HER2-low ABC progressed on T-DXd (Module 0). The main objective of Part 1 is to assess the safety and tolerability of HER3-DXd monotherapy and combination and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the combination containing HER3-DXd. The main objective of Part 2 is to assess the efficacy of study therapies in each module based on investigator assessment as evaluated by the objective response rate (ORR) at 6 months.
• Patients must have received prior treatment with T-DXd and presented disease progression while on T-DXd treatment or within 2 months from T-DXd interruption/discontinuation for any reason, without requiring to be the last line of treatment. Patients who have received other lines of treatment after T-DXd and before study entry is capped at 10 patients for each cohort.
• Patients with HER2-positive tumors must have received prior treatment with trastuzumab and taxanes. They may have received prior treatment with T-DM1 and pertuzumab.
• Patients with HER2-low tumors must have been treated with taxanes. Patients with HR-positive tumors must have received ET and CDK4/6 inhibitors (patients may have received prior treatment with sacituzumab govitecan) If a patient has a tumor that was previously HER2-pos and became HER2-low, she/he will be included in cohort 2 and meet the inclusion criteria for HER2-low tumors.
• If a patient has a tumor that was previously HR-pos and became HR-neg, prior therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitors is not mandatory.
• Patients with germline pathogenic BRCA1/2 mutations and HER2-positive or HER2-low breast cancer are eligible to the study but must have received a prior treatment with PARP inhibitor (olaparib or talazoparib)
• Female or male patient aged ≥18 years on the day of the ICF signature
• Patient who has histologically confirmed diagnosis of breast cancer with unresectable loco regional or metastatic disease
• Patient must have an ECOG PS ≤1 at the time of screening
• Patients must have HER2-pos (IHC 3+ or IHC2+/ISH positive) or HER-2 low (IHC2+/ISH negative or IHC 1+) tumors with any HR status, any time before T-DXd exposure
• Patient must have at least one radiologically measurable lesion (different from the biopsy site) according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) V1.1 criteria. At least one predominantly lytic or mixed lytic-blastic bone lesion with identifiable soft tissue component that can be evaluated by Computerized Tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) must be present in patients with only bone metastasis
⁃ Patient must have a tumor site easily accessible to biopsy, avoiding bone biopsy when possible. Patients must have accepted to perform pre-treatment, on-treatment, and end-of-treatment biopsies
⁃ Patient must have adequate bone marrow reserve and organ function, based on local laboratory data within 14 days prior to Cycle 1, Day 1, defined per the protocol
⁃ Female patients of reproductive/childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening (serum test within 24 hours before C1D1 or urine test within 72 hours of C1D1) and must and must agree to use a highly effective form of contraception or avoid intercourse during and till the end of treatment and for at least 8 months after the last dose of study drug. The following contraception methods are considered highly effective:
∙ Intrauterine device (IUD)
‣ Bilateral tubal occlusion
‣ Vasectomized partner
‣ Complete sexual abstinence defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during and till the end of treatment and for at least 8 months for females after the last dose of study drug. Periodic abstinence not an acceptable method of contraception
⁃ Female patients must not donate, or retrieve for their own use, ova from the time of screening and throughout the study treatment period, and for at least 8 months after the final study drug administration
⁃ Male patients must be surgically sterile or must withhold heterosexual intercourse, or must be willing to use a highly effective birth control upon enrollment, during the treatment period, and for at least 5 months following the last dose of study drug
⁃ Male patients must not freeze or donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study period, and for at least 5 months after the final study drug administration.
⁃ Patient must understand, sign and date the written informed consent form (ICF) prior to any protocol-specific procedures performed. Patient should be able and willing to comply with study visits and procedure as per protocol
⁃ Patient must be affiliated to a social security system or beneficiary of the same
