Mifepristone and Eribulin in Patients With Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer or Other Specified Solid Tumors

January 12, 2018 updated by: Corcept Therapeutics

Phase 1 Study of Mifepristone in Combination With Eribulin in Patients With Locally Advanced/Metastatic Breast or Other Specified Solid Tumors, With a Dose Expansion Cohort in Patients With Triple Negative Breast Cancer.

This is a study to assess the safety of the combination of mifepristone and eribulin in patients with metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast or other specified solid tumors, and determine preliminary efficacy of the combination of mifepristone and eribulin in patients with metastatic or locally advanced unresectable Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). The structure for the study is a single arm, non-randomized, open-label, multicenter trial with no control group. The study will be conducted at up to 11 sites, with up to 40 evaluable patients

Study Overview

Detailed Description

There will be two parts to the study: Part 1, a dose escalation phase, in which the MTD and RP2D will be determined in up to 20 patients with metastatic breast or other specified solid tumors, regardless of receptor status; and Part 2, a dose expansion phase in which a preliminary estimate of efficacy will be made in an expansion group of up to 20 patients with glucocorticoid receptor-positive metastatic TNBC at the RP2D.

Treatment will be administered in 21-day cycles, with the exception of the first cycle, which will be of 28 days duration with a lead-in of 7 days dosing of mifepristone.

Cycle 1 (28-day cycle): Mifepristone administered orally (PO) with food once daily for 28 days. Eribulin will be administered intravenously (IV) over 2 to 5 minutes on days 8 and 15.

Cycle 2 and beyond (21-day cycle): Mifepristone administered orally (PO) with food once daily for 21 days. Eribulin will be administered intravenously (IV) over 2 to 5 minutes on days 1 and 8.

Enrollment in Part 2 of the study (dose expansion) will occur once the RP2D has been determined. Patients in the dose expansion study must have TNBC disease that is glucocorticoid receptor-positive (by immunohistochemistry [IHC]). Patients will be treated in repeated 21-day cycles until progression or another withdrawal criterion is met.

Part 1 of the study is complete. Part 2 of the study is ongoing.

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Informed consent given prior to study-specific screening procedures
  2. ≥ 18 years old

Part 2, dose expansion:

  1. Diagnosis of TNBC: < 1% cells positive for ER/progesterone receptor, and HER2 IHC score of 0 or 1, or FISH HER2+ ratio of less than 1.8; patients with low ER IHC (> 1% but < 10% cells positive), but negative by genomic assay are eligible
  2. Inoperable metastatic or locally advanced unresectable disease
  3. Patients should have received a minimum of one, and up to five prior chemotherapy regimens
  4. Must have submitted a diagnostic FFPE tumor tissue sample to confirm tumor GR positivity. Tumor tissue may be from primary or metastatic lesion. In the absence of sufficient tissue to complete IHC, a tumor biopsy will be required.
  5. Tumor must be glucocorticoid receptor positive TNBC (≥10% positive cells by IHC of tumor biopsy)
  6. Must have measurable disease (RECIST v1.1) in at least one lesion not previously irradiated unless documented evidence of progression
  7. Patients with treated, stable brain metastases eligible providing treatment was ≥4 weeks prior to initiation of study drug, and baseline CT or MRI negative for new brain metastases. Must not require therapy with corticosteroids.
  8. ECOG performance status 0 or 1
  9. Must have adequate bone marrow and renal/hepatic function at the screening visit (≤7 days preceding the lab assessment):

    i. ANC ≥ 1,500/mm3, without G-CSF

    ii. Platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3, without transfusion
