About this study

Official title: The TEEL Study: A Phase I Trial of Tamoxifen With Ribociclib (LEE011) in Adult Patients With Advanced ER+ (HER2 Negative) Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug Ribociclib (LEE011), when taken with standard treatment (Tamoxifen +/- Goserelin) is safe and has beneficial effects in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women and men who have a type of breast cancer known as hormone receptor positive/HER2- breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

Phase I Dose Escalation:

The phase I portion of the study is a dose escalation to confirm the safety of the combination and to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) for ribociclib with Tamoxifen.

Phase I will be conducted in all participants with Hormone Receptor Positive (HR+)/Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 Negative (HER2-) locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with any prior endocrine therapy and up to three prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens administered in the metastatic or locally advanced setting.

Phase Ib Dose Expansion:

Phase I trials are increasingly including dose-expansion cohorts (Ib) after the maximum-tolerated dose has been reached to better characterize the toxicity profile and identify early signs of efficacy within this specific disease population. The investigators' goal is to assess the anti-tumor activity Ribociclib + Tamoxifen and to further evaluate their safety in adult patients with HR+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Patients in the phase 1b expansion will have the same exclusion and inclusion criteria except that they will only be allowed to have up to two lines of cytotoxic chemotherapy in the metastatic setting.

What participants receive

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

  • TamoxifenDrug

    Tamoxifen will be taken orally once daily on a continuous daily schedule (e.g., days 1-28 of each 28 day cycle).

  • RibociclibDrug

    Also called LEE011, Cyclin-Dependent Kinase (CDK) Inhibitor

    Ribociclib (LEE011) will be taken orally once daily on days 1-21 of each 28 day cycle. Days 22-28 will be a "rest" period from dosing with Ribociclib. In the continuous cohort, 400 mg ribociclib will be given daily (QD).

  • GoserelinDrug

    Also called Zoladex, Goserelin acetate

    Goserelin will be given as an injectable subcutaneous implant on day 1 of every 28 day cycle. This will be given in pre-menopausal and peri-menopausal women.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)

    400-600 mg of Ribociclib, when taken with Tamoxifen 20 mg. The Phase I portion of the study is a dose escalation to confirm the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and the RP2D for ribociclib with Tamoxifen. DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value assessed as having a reasonable possibility related to the study medication, unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications that occurs within the first 28 days of treatment (cycle 1) with LEE011 and Tamoxifen. National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.03 will be used for all grading. In this study, a DLT will occur if CTCAE grade 4 neutropenia lasts more than 4 consecutive days, if CTCAE grade 3 thrombocytopenia is associated with clinically significant bleeding or if there is grade 4 thrombocytopenia.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) at Six Months

    Occurrence of Progression Survival at 6 months. PFS: On study date to date of progression or the same as overall survival time if not progressed. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Overall Survival (OS) at Six Months

    Occurrence of Overall Survival at 6 months. OS: On study date to expired date or last visit date if not deceased.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tamoxifen, Ribociclib and Goserelin in people with Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer - Female, run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 22 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 21 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 3 Jun 2019). 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?

Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) (time frame: Up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 21 Jan 2022.
