Status

not recruiting iconNOT RECRUITING

Purpose

The purpose of this open-label, 2:1 randomized phase III trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of talazoparib (also known as BMN 673) versus protocol-specific physician's choice in patients who have locally advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer with germline BRCA mutations.

Official Title

A PHASE 3, OPEN-LABEL, RANDOMIZED PARALLEL,2-ARM,MULTI-CENTER STUDY OF TALAZOPARIB(BMN 673) VERSUS PHYSICIAN'S CHOICE IN GERMLINE BRCA MUTATION SUBJECTS WITH LOCALLY ADVANCED AND/OR METASTATIC BREAST CANCER, WHO HAVE RECEIVED PRIOR CHEMOTHERAPY REGIMENS FOR METASTATIC DISEASE

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study: Older than 18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study: All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No
Inclusion Criteria:
  1. - Histologically or cytologically confirmed carcinoma of the breast - Locally advanced breast cancer that is not amenable to curative radiation or surgical cure and/or metastatic disease appropriate for systemic single cytotoxic chemotherapy - Documentation of a deleterious, suspected deleterious, or pathogenic germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation from Myriad Genetics or other laboratory approved by the Sponsor - No more than 3 prior chemotherapy-inclusive regimens for locally advanced and/or metastatic disease (no limit on prior hormonal therapies or targeted anticancer therapies such as mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) or CDK4/6 inhibitors, immune-oncology agents, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, or monoclonal antibodies against CTL4 or VEGF) - Prior treatment with a taxane and/or anthracycline in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant, locally advanced, or metastatic setting unless medically contraindicated - Have measurable or non-measurable, evaluable disease by the revised response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) v.1.1 - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2
Exclusion Criteria:
  1. - First-line locally advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer with no prior adjuvant chemotherapy unless the Investigator determines that one of the 4 cytotoxic chemotherapy agents in the control arm would otherwise be offered to the subject - Prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor (not including iniparib) - Not a candidate for treatment with at least 1 of the treatments of protocol-specific physician's choice (ie, capecitabine, eribulin, gemcitabine, vinorelbine) - Subjects who had objective disease progression while receiving platinum chemotherapy administered for locally advanced or metastatic disease; subjects who received low-dose platinum therapy administered in combination with radiation therapy are not excluded - Subjects who have received platinum in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting are eligible; however, subjects may not have relapsed within 6 months of the last dose of prior platinum therapy - Cytotoxic chemotherapy within 14 days before randomization - Radiation or anti-hormonal therapy or other targeted anticancer therapy within 14 days before randomization - HER2 positive breast cancer - Active inflammatory breast cancer - CNS metastases - Exception: Adequately treated brain metastases documented by baseline CT or MRI scan that has not progressed since previous scans and that does not require corticosteroids (except prednisone ≤ 5 mg/day or equivalent) for management of CNS symptoms. A repeat CT or MRI following the identification of CNS metastases (obtained at least 2 weeks after definitive therapy) must document adequately treated brain metastases. - Subjects with leptomeningeal carcinomatosis are not permitted - Prior malignancy except for any of the following: - Prior BRCA-associated cancer as long as there is no current evidence of the cancer - Carcinoma in situ or non-melanoma skin cancer - A cancer diagnosed and definitively treated ≥ 5 years before randomization with no subsequent evidence of recurrence - Known to be human immunodeficiency virus positive - Known active hepatitis C virus, or known active hepatitis B virus - Known hypersensitivity to any of the components of talazoparib
