Who may be able to join

  • A signed, written informed consent will be obtained from the subject prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including screening evaluations.

  • Women <50 years of age receiving luteinising hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist for ovarian suppression are also eligible for the study but must initiate LHRH agonist therapy at least 2 weeks prior to starting on study intervention.
  • Women ≥ 50 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments, had radiation-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, had chemotherapy-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, or underwent surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy).

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Neoadjuvant Clinical Trial of Combination Therapy With Abemaciclib, Durvalumab (MEDI4736), and an Aromatase Inhibitor in Locally Advanced Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a combination of immunotherapy and anticancer drugs presurgery in patients with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

The primary hypothesis is that a Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) immune checkpoint inhibitor combined with a Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor will be well tolerated in early stage, hormone receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET). The secondary hypothesis and biomarker based endpoint is that patients with HR positive locally advanced breast cancer with low to intermediate stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) will demonstrate an increase in stromal TILs following NET when combined with abemaciclib and durvalumab for 4 cycles (16 weeks).

Being tested
Abemaciclib, durvalumab and aromatase inhibitor

What participants receive

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

  • Abemaciclib, durvalumab and aromatase inhibitorDrug

    Subjects will receive standard therapy with an aromatase inhibitor (exemestane, anastrozole, or letrozole), combined with the experimental treatment of abemaciclib and durvalumab

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0

    The primary endpoints will be safety and tolerability of the study intervention

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pathologic response at surgery

    Pathologic response at surgery by Preoperative Endocrine Prognostic Index (PEPI) score

    Measured: At the time of definitive surgery

  2. Pathologic response at surgery

    Pathologic response at surgery by change in Ki-67% from pre and surgical biopsies

    Measured: At the time of definitive surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Abemaciclib, durvalumab and aromatase inhibitor in people with Breast Cancer Female and Locally Advanced Breast Cancer, run by Alison Stopeck 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 18 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 (time frame: Through study completion, up to 24 weeks). 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 16 Jul 2020.
