About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Olaparib and Durvalumab in Patients With Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This pilot phase I trial studies whether it is feasible to conduct a detailed molecular profile of triple negative breast cancer as part of a treatment strategy that asks whether or not we can lower the chance of breast cancer growing or spreading, by treating with a combination of PARP inhibitor how well (olaparib) and immune therapy (durvalumab). Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving olaparib and durvalumab may work better in treating participants with metastatic triple negative breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To assess the feasibility of completing Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA) analytics on pre-treatment biopsy within a planned 4-week window for enrolled participants.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Assess safety and tolerability of the proposed therapy. II. Assess response to treatment. III. Determine the time to disease progression following study therapy. IV. Determine survival of participants enrolled on the study.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Examine response rates depending on tumor characteristics. II. Identify predictive biomarkers of sensitivity to therapy. III. Identify emerging mechanism of resistance to therapy tumor markers of emergence.

IV. Determine changes in tumor cells induced by PARP inhibitors. V. Identify tumor markers suggestive of combinatorial therapy that could r overcome resistance to therapy.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive olaparib orally (PO) twice a day (BID) for 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants then receive olaparib PO BID on days 1-28 and durvalumab intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants may continue on therapy beyond disease progression at the discretion of the investigator.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up every 6 months for 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of completion of Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA) analytics on pre-treatment biopsy before the planned for 4-week biopsy

    Using the feasibility analysis set, the proportion of the completed CLIA analytics within 4 weeks (i.e., from day 1, cycle 1 up to day 1 cycle 2 of on-study treatment regimen will be estimated relative to all screened participants who undergo a first biopsy with a 95% confidence interval.

    Measured: At day 28

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Incidence of >= grade 3 adverse events per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v) 4.03

    The incidence of having grade 3+ acute toxicity will be determined for participants with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that received at least one dose of olaparib and durvalumab in combination. The 95% confidence interval will be reported with the point estimate of toxicity rate.

    Measured: Up to 3 months post treatment

  2. Overall response rate (ORR) for olaparib in combination with durvalumab

    The probability of having ORR will be measured and reported (if available) with 95% exact confidence interval.

    Measured: Up to 6 months post treatment

  3. Clinical benefit rate (CBR) for olaparib in combination with durvalumab

    CBR is defined as the percentage of participants who have achieved complete response, partial response and stable disease (i.e., CR + Pr + SD) at 6 months post-treatment. The probability of having CBR will be measured and reported (if available) with 95% exact confidence interval.

    Measured: At 6 months post treatment

  4. Duration of response (DOR) for olaparib in combination with durvalumab

    The duration of overall response is measured from the time measurement criteria are met for CR or Pr (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started. The duration of overall CR is measured from the time measurement criteria are first met for CR until the first date that progressive disease is objectively documented. If a participant dies, irrespective of cause, without documentation of recurrent or progressive disease beforehand, then the date of death will be used to denote the response end date.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  5. Progression-free survival (PFS) for olaparib in combination with durvalumab

    PFS is defined as the time from first treatment with olaparib (i.e., cycle 1 day 1) to the first of either recurrence or relapse (anywhere in the body), or death at time of last follow-up at 12-months. The estimated distribution of the PFS will be plotted using Kaplan Meier curves and reported with median survival and 95% confidence intervals if available.

    Measured: Up to 1-year post treatment

  6. Overall survival (OS) olaparib in combination with durvalumab

    OS is defined as the time from first treatment with olaparib (i.e., Day 1) to the date of death or last follow-up at 12 months. The estimated distribution of the OS will be plotted using Kaplan Meier curves and reported with median survival and 95% confidence intervals if available.

    Measured: Up to 1-year post treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Durvalumab and Olaparib in people with Anatomic Stage IV Breast Cancer AJCC v8 and Estrogen Receptor Negative, run by OHSU Knight Cancer 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 40 inclusion and 27 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 20 Nov 2020. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Proportion of completion of Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA) analytics on pre-treatment biopsy before the planned for 4-week biopsy (time frame: At day 28). 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 NCT03544125, 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 20 Nov 2020.
