About this study

Official title: A Phase 3 Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Carboplatin and Paclitaxel With or Without the PARP Inhibitor Veliparib (ABT-888) in HER2-Negative Metastatic or Locally Advanced Unresectable BRCA-Associated Breast Cancer

The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (C/P) compared to placebo plus C/P in participants with a Breast Cancer Gene 1 or 2 (BRCA1; BRCA2) mutation in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) through the end of Week 24, objective response rate (ORR) and PFS on subsequent therapy (PFS2) in participants treated with veliparib in combination with C/P versus placebo in combination with C/P.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, multinational, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of veliparib in combination with C/P compared to placebo in combination with C/P in participants with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, as documented by the Sponsor core laboratory, with HER2-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer who received no more than 2 prior lines of cytotoxic therapy for metastatic disease. For the purposes of eligibility, HER2-negative status was based on the most recent tumor biopsy. Participants were randomized in a 2:1 ratio, with a total of approximately 500 participants planned to be randomized. Veliparib 120 mg/placebo twice a day (BID) was dosed Days -2 through 5 with carboplatin target area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) 6 administered on Day 1 and paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 administered weekly on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 21-day cycle.

Safety and efficacy data through the prespecified primary analysis cutoff date of 05 April 2019 are included in the interim analysis.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Veliparib PlaceboDrug

    Supplied as 40 mg, 50 mg, or 100 mg capsules for oral administration twice daily (BID) on Days -2 through 5 of a 21-day cycle.

  • CarboplatinDrug

    Administered intravenously over approximately 15 to 30 minutes at an area under the curve (AUC) of 6 mg/mL/min immediately following paclitaxel infusion on Day 1 of every cycle. The duration of carboplatin infusion may be lengthened according to institutional guidelines.

  • PaclitaxelDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time to PFS is defined as the number of days from the date the participant was randomized to the date the participant experiences radiographic disease progression (as determined by the investigators), or to the date of death (all causes of mortality) if disease progression is not reached. All events of disease progression occurring on or before the Primary Analysis Cutoff date of 05 April 2019 were to be included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking study drug or had previously discontinued study drug. PFS was estimated for each treatment group using Kaplan-Meier methodology.

    Measured: From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 05 April 2019; the median duration of follow-up was 35.5 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time to death (overall survival) is defined as the number of days from the date the participant was randomized to the date of the participant's death. All events of death which occur up to the analysis cutoff date are to be included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking study drug or after the participant discontinued study drug. If a participant has not died, the data for the participant is to be censored at the date last known to be alive or at the analysis cutoff date if that is earlier.

    The final analysis of OS will occur when the pre-specified number of events has occurred in the ITT population.

    Measured: Up to 84.5 and 81.8 months for Placebo and Veliparib, respectively.

  2. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)

    The clinical benefit rate (CBR) is defined as the progression-free rate at 24 weeks (168 days), estimated using Kaplan Meier methodology. All events of disease progression in the primary progression free survival analysis database were to be included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking, or had previously discontinued, study drug. If the participant had not yet progressed then their data was to be censored at the date of the last evaluable disease progression assessment. Participants without post-baseline assessments were to be censored at the date of randomization.

    Measured: Through the end of Week 24

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The objective response rate (ORR) is calculated as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) based on assessment by the investigators per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria version 1.1. All participants who had at least one measurable lesion at baseline were to be included in the ORR calculation.

    The final analysis of ORR will occur when the pre-specified number of Overall Survival events have occurred in the ITT population, per the fixed sequence testing procedure.

    Measured: Approximately 8 years from randomization

  4. Progression-Free Survival on Subsequent Therapy (PFS2)

    PFS2 is defined as the number of days from the date of randomization to the time of disease progression on subsequent therapy or death from any cause. The distribution of PFS2 was to be estimated for each treatment group using Kaplan-Meier methodology.

    The final analysis of PFS2 will occur when the pre-specified number of Overall Survival events have occurred in the ITT population, per the fixed sequence testing procedure.

    Measured: Approximately 8 years from randomization

A Phase 3 study testing Veliparib, Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in people with Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by AbbVie at 219 sites in 37 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 219 sites in United States, Russia, South Africa, Australia, Israel and 32 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Apr 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 05 April 2019; the median duration of follow-up was 35.5 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02163694, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Feb 2025.
