About this study

Official title: A Two-stage Simon Design Phase II Study for NOn-BRCA Metastatic BReast Cancer (MBC) Patients With Homologous Recombination Deficiency Treated With OLAparib Single Agent

This is an international, multi-centre, non-controlled, open-label, single arm, two-stage Simon Design phase II study for non-BRCA metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with homologous recombination deficiency treated with Olaparib single agent.

The main objective is to assess the efficacy of olaparib single agent as determined by Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

Read more

In the first stage Triple negative (TN) non-BRCA, metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients whose tumours exhibited any characteristic related to homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). In the second stage, luminal patients (RH positive HER2 negative) will be allowed in the same conditions that TN.

Patients whose tumours are identified as Homologous Recombination Deficient by deleterious HRR gene mutations (according to Foundation Medicine's Foundation One assay) will receive olaparib 300 mg (two tablets of 150mg) orally twice daily (bid) on days 1-28 each 28 days.

Study commitment is 39 patients: 17 patients will be enrolled at first stage and 22 at the second stage.

The total duration of the study period is 34 months.

Read the detailed description

This is an international, multi-centre, non-controlled, open-label, single arm, two-stage Simon Design phase II study for non-BRCA metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with homologous recombination deficiency treated with Olaparib single agent.

The main objective is to assess the efficacy of olaparib single agent as determined by Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).

Triple negative non-BRCA metastatic breast cancer women (for the first stage) age ≥ 18 years that had previously received at least one (and no more than three) line for their metastatic disease. Patients must have previously received taxanes either in the early or in the metastatic scenario. To be included in the trial, tumours must be considered homologous recombination deficient (HRD) according to Foundation Medicine's Foundation One assay. Evidence of measurable metastatic disease is required.

In the second stage, luminal patients (RH positive HER2 negative) will be allowed to participate in the same conditions that TN patients.

Patients whose tumours are identified as Homologous Recombination Deficient by deleterious HRR gene mutations (according to Foundation Medicine's Foundation One assay) will receive olaparib 300 mg (two tablets of 150mg) orally twice daily (bid) on days 1-28 each 28 days.

Study commitment is 39 patients: 17 patients will be enrolled at first stage and 22 at the second stage.

During the period between the end of the first stage and the beginning of the second, an interim analysis will be conducted to assess the viability of the second part of the trial.

The total duration of the study period is 34 months.

Stage I:

  • Recruitment period: 10 months
  • Follow-up period: Up to 6 months after last patient included in the study

Stage II:

  • Recruitment period: 12 months
  • Follow-up period: up to 6 months after last patient included in the study

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the efficacy of olaparib single agent in non-BRCA MBC patients whose tumours exhibit an homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) signature, as determined by Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) using RECIST 1.1 criteria

    The CBR as best response, defined as the percentage of patients who experience a complete response, partial response or stable disease for at least 24 weeks and assessed by modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) criteria

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. To assess the accuracy of Foundation One's HRR assay in predicting the proportion of patients with response to olaparib.

    The positive predictive value (PPV) of the signature to predict patients that achieved objective response and clinical benefit.

    Measured: Baseline up to 34 months

  2. To assess incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety profile) of olaparib in this population

    This study will consider the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.03 criteria) grade 3 and 4 events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs) in order to assess the safety and tolerability objectives.

    Measured: Baseline up to 34 months

  3. To investigate the prevalence of HRD signature within triple negative and luminal non-BRCA patients' cohorts

    The percentage of patients with HRD according to the Foundation Medicine's Foundation One assay within triple negative and luminal (in the second stage) non-BRCA patients' cohorts

    Measured: Baseline up to 34 months

  4. To explore the efficacy of olaparib in terms of Progression-free survival (PFS)

    The PFS defined as the time from the first dose of study drugs until objective tumour progression or death, as assessed by the investigator per RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: Baseline up to 34 months

  5. To explore the efficacy of olaparib in terms of objective response rate (ORR)

    The ORR defined as the proportion of patients with best objective response of confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST criteria guidelines (version 1.1).

    Measured: Baseline up to 34 months

  6. To explore the efficacy of olaparib in terms of overall survival (OS)

    The OS defined as the time from the first dose of study drugs until death from any cause or the last date the patient was known to be alive.

    Measured: Baseline up to 34 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Olaparib in people with Breast Cancer, run by MedSIR at 5 sites in Spain.

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 18 inclusion and 29 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Spain. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Very slow recruitment due to subject profile). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

To assess the efficacy of olaparib single agent in non-BRCA MBC patients whose tumours exhibit an homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) signature, as determined by Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) using RECIST 1.1 criteria (time frame: Baseline up to 24 weeks). 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 NCT03367689, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Feb 2023.
