About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Radiosurgery With Concurrent Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 4/6 Inhibitors in the Treatment of Brain Metastases

This phase I trial studies the side effects of stereotactic radiosurgery with abemaciclib, ribociclib, or palbociclib in treating patients with hormone receptor positive breast cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metasteses). Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Abemaciclib, ribociclib, and palbociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving abemaciclib, ribociclib, or palbociclib concurrently with stereotactic radiosurgery may reduce the side effects and/or increase the response to each of the therapies.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. Prospectively evaluate safety and toxicity of the combination of radiosurgery (SRS) and concurrent CDK 4/6 inhibitors (CDKi) for hormone receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate late toxicity (after 3 months) following SRS and concurrent CDKi. II. Evaluate local control efficacy with combination therapy of SRS and concurrent CDKi.

III. Assess quality of life and neurologic functional outcomes following treatment using standardized questionnaire (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Brain [FACT-Br]).

IV. Analyze overall survival.

OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 3 groups.

GROUP I: Beginning within 2 weeks prior to stereotactic radiosurgery, patients receive abemaciclib orally (PO) twice daily (BID). Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

GROUP II: Beginning within 2 weeks prior to stereotactic radiosurgery, patients receive ribociclib PO once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

GROUP III: Beginning within 2 weeks prior to stereotactic radiosurgery, patients receive palbociclib PO QD on days 1-21. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, 4-6 weeks post stereotactic radiosurgery, and then every 3 months for up to 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of grade 3+ radiation therapy oncology central nervous system toxicity

    Rate and frequency of grade 3+ toxicity will be reported. A 95% exact confidence interval will be estimated using the Clopper-Pearson method.

    Measured: At 3 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Symptomatic radiation necrosis (late toxicity)

    Will be defined as radiographic (typically on magnetic resonance imaging) changes consistent with radiation induced necrosis and the patient presenting with increased neurological symptoms. Rate and frequency of late toxicity will be reported, and a 95% exact confidence interval will be estimated. Symptomatic radiation necrosis similarly will be summarized. The rate of radiation necrosis will be compared with that of our institutional historical control.

    Measured: At 6 and 12 months

  2. Intracranial failure within treated lesion

    Will be defined by progressive lesion either biopsy-proven or with imaging interpretation concordance by both radiation oncologist and neuroradiologist on serial imaging. The cumulative incidence approach will be used to estimate the failure rates for intracranial failure of treated lesion and distant intracranial failures.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  3. Distant intracranial failure

    New lesions will be defined by new contrast-enhancing brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging. The cumulative incidence approach will be used to estimate the failure rates for intracranial failure of treated lesion and distant intracranial failures.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  4. Overall survival

    The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate the overall survival rates.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  5. Quality of life (QoL)

    Will be assessed by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Brain (FACT-Br) at pre- and post-radiosurgery. Will be summarized using frequencies and percentages for categorical variables, and mean, standard deviation, median, and range for continuous variables. Paired tests such as paired t-tests and McNemar's tests will be considered for comparing QoL outcomes pre- versus post-radiosurgery.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Abemaciclib, Palbociclib and Quality-of-Life Assessment in people with Anatomic Stage IV Breast Cancer American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) v8 and Metastatic Breast Carcinoma, run by Emory University.

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 18 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 18 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

Incidence of grade 3+ radiation therapy oncology central nervous system toxicity (time frame: At 3 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 18 Oct 2021.
