About this study
Official title: A Phase I/II Study of Palbociclib, Letrozole and T-DM1 in Trastuzumab Refractory Estrogen Receptor Positive (ER+) and HER2 Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer
This study will determine the recommend dose of palbociclib in combination with letrozole and another medication, Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1). Additionally, researchers will determine how well this recommended dose will improve outcomes in this type of advanced breast cancer.
The study will include a safety lead-in with escalating dosing of palbociclib to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of palbociclib in this combination and an expanded phase II of palbociclib at the RP2D in combination with letrozole and Ado- trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1).
Read more
The starting dose of palbociclib will be 75 milligrams (mg) by mouth (PO) daily for each 21 day cycle. If 0 of 3 patients at the 75mg dose level experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT), the next 3 patients will be enrolled at the next higher dosing cohort of 100mg PO daily for each 21 day cycle. If 0 of 3 patients at the 100mg dose level experience a DLT, the next 3 patients will be enrolled at the next higher dosing cohort of 125mg PO daily for each 21 day cycle. If 0 of 3 patients at the 125mg dose level experience a DLT, 125mg PO daily of palbociclib will be the phase II recommended dose used in the phase II expanded cohort. Patients receiving the phase II recommended dose in phase I will be enrolled in phase II of the study.
During safety lead-in and expanded phase II, Letrozole 2.5mg PO will be administered daily for each 21 day cycle and T-DM1 3.6 milligrams per kilograms intravenously (IV) will be administered on Day 1 of each 21 day cycle.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This study will determine the recommend dose of palbociclib in combination with letrozole and another medication, Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1). Additionally, researchers will determine how well this recommended dose will improve outcomes in this type of advanced breast cancer.
The study will include a safety lead-in with escalating dosing of palbociclib to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of palbociclib in this combination and an expanded phase II of palbociclib at the RP2D in combination with letrozole and Ado- trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1).
The starting dose of palbociclib will be 75 milligrams (mg) by mouth (PO) daily for each 21 day cycle. If 0 of 3 patients at the 75mg dose level experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT), the next 3 patients will be enrolled at the next higher dosing cohort of 100mg PO daily for each 21 day cycle. If 0 of 3 patients at the 100mg dose level experience a DLT, the next 3 patients will be enrolled at the next higher dosing cohort of 125mg PO daily for each 21 day cycle. If 0 of 3 patients at the 125mg dose level experience a DLT, 125mg PO daily of palbociclib will be the phase II recommended dose used in the phase II expanded cohort. Patients receiving the phase II recommended dose in phase I will be enrolled in phase II of the study.
During safety lead-in and expanded phase II, Letrozole 2.5mg PO will be administered daily for each 21 day cycle and T-DM1 3.6 milligrams per kilograms intravenously (IV) will be administered on Day 1 of each 21 day cycle.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Palbociclib 75mg, Letrozole 2.5mg and T-DM1 in people with HER2-positive Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Metastatic, run by University of Kansas Medical Center at 5 sites 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 8 inclusion and 6 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 5 Mar 2024. 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 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 combined 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.
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: Low accrual). 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?
Rate of Overall Response (time frame: From the time of first documented complete response or appearance of one or more new lesions, until the first documented date of recurrent or progressive disease, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years). 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 5 Mar 2024.
