Sacituzumab Govitecan Combined With Head Radiotherapy for Her2-negative Breast Cancer Brain Metastases

June 12, 2024 updated by: Zhenyu Pan, Guangzhou Medical University

A Phase II Clinical Study of Sacituzumab Govitecan Combined With Head Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Brain Metastases From Her2-negative Breast Cancer

The incidence of brain metastasis of Her2-negative breast cancer is high, which seriously affects the prognosis of patients.The treatment of brain metastasis of Her2-negative breast cancer is still tricky. The local efficacy of head radiotherapy for breast cancer brain metastases is remarkable, and systemic tumor progression in patients with brain metastases is the main reason for treatment failure. Sacituzumab Govitecan is the only Trop-2 antibody-coupled drug (ADC) approved for the treatment of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic Her2-negative breast cancer. However, the objective remission rate of Sacituzumab Govitecan for intracranial metastatic lesions has not been satisfactory. This study is an open, uncontrolled phase II clinical study to observe the efficacy and safety of Sacituzumab Govitecan combined with intracranial radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with brain metastases from Her2-negative breast cancer, in order to find a more effective treatment method.

Detailed Description

This study is a single-arm open phase II clinical trial. It aims to observe the effectiveness and safety of Sacituzumab Govitecan combined with head radiotherapy in the treatment of Her2-negative breast cancer brain metastases, and to search for a more effective treatment option for Her2-negative breast cancer brain metastases. Patients were treated with Sacituzumab Govitecan 10mg/kg every 21 days as a treatment cycle, which was infused intravenously on day 1 and day 8, and the treatment was continued until the disease progressed or unacceptable toxicity occurred. Radiotherapy was administered after the second infusion of Sacituzumab Govitecan, on day 9 after the start of this regimen. The radiotherapy regimen was: brain metastases at a dose of 60 Gy/20 doses. For lesions located adjacent to the brainstem and optic nerve, 54 Gy/20 doses were given. For patients with ≥5 lesions, whole-brain radiotherapy at 40 Gy/20 doses was synchronized with radiotherapy to localized brain metastases.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
1-year CNS progression-free survival (NPFS)
Time Frame: From the time patients receive this treatment until the next 1 year
Proportion of patients free of CNS progression at 1 year from the time the patient receives this treatment. Neurological progression was assessed according to the Response Assessment of Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases (RANO-BM) criteria.
From the time patients receive this treatment until the next 1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Intracranial objective remission rate (IORR)
Time Frame: Assessed at 2 months after the end of treatment or at the time of patient death
The proportion of patients whose brain metastases shrink in volume to achieve complete remission/partial remission from the time the patient receives this treatment. Complete remission/partial remission is assessed according to the Response Assessment of Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases (RANO-BM) criteria
Assessed at 2 months after the end of treatment or at the time of patient death
Rate of new intracranial lesions
Time Frame: Assessed 2 months after the end of treatment or at the time of patient's death
The proportion of patients presenting with new brain metastases from the time the patient received treatment. New brain metastases are assessed according to the Response Assessment of Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases (RANO-BM) criteria.
Assessed 2 months after the end of treatment or at the time of patient's death
Overall progression-free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: All patients received at least 6 months of follow-up, and NPFS was assessed from the start of treatment to the date of the first documented progression of an extracranial lesion or the date of death from any cause, whichever came first.
The time from the time the patient receives this treatment to the time of disease progression or death. Assessment of extracranial lesions follows the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.1).
All patients received at least 6 months of follow-up, and NPFS was assessed from the start of treatment to the date of the first documented progression of an extracranial lesion or the date of death from any cause, whichever came first.
Overall survival
Time Frame: Assessments were performed at least 7 months after diagnosis of brain metastases or before death
Survival time was recorded from the date of patient enrollment. All patients were followed until death or the end of the study.
Assessments were performed at least 7 months after diagnosis of brain metastases or before death
Incidence of Treatment-Related Adverse Events
Time Frame: Assessments were performed 2 months after the end of treatment or at the time of the patient's death
The incidence of treatment-related adverse events was measured to determine tolerability and safety. Adverse events (AEs) were assessed according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, version 4.03).Grade 3-5 events were defined as moderate and severe adverse events.
Assessments were performed 2 months after the end of treatment or at the time of the patient's death
