Inclusion and exclusion lines below are quoted from ClinicalTrials.gov. No match score is shown, because a score needs a person's age, biomarkers, and treatment dates. Confirm the record with the study team.
This study aims to evaluate the safety of avasopasem in combination with CDK 4/6 inhibitor and hormonal therapy in women with metastatic hormone receptor positive breast cancer, and to see if the addition of avasopasem improves the effectiveness of a CDK 4/6 inhibitor and hormonal therapy.
Inclusion
- Histologically confirmed diagnosis of HR+, HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer.
- Estrogen receptor (ER) and/or progesterone receptor (PR) expression positivity is defined as at least 10% of tumor cells nuclei positive by immunohistochemistry in the sample on testing.
- HER2 negative: defined as IHC staining of 0 or 1+. If HER2 overexpression is equivocal by IHC, defined as 2+, the tumor must be non-gene amplified by FISH (ratio \<2 and HER2 copy number \<4).
- Progression on treatment with a CDK 4/6 inhibitor and hormonal therapy in the metastatic setting
- The CDK 4/6 inhibitor must be ribociclib or abemaciclib. Patients on palbociclib are not eligible.
- Patient may have been on palbociclib previously but must have been stable on ribociclib or abemaciclib for at least three months prior to enrolling. In this case, the switch from palbociclib to either ribociclib or abemaciclib must have been of toxicity management and not progression of disease.
Exclusion
- Patients who have any systemic therapy in the metastatic setting except hormonal therapy in combination with a CDK 4/6 inhibitor. Previously palliative targeted radiation therapy is allowed. Bone targeting agents such as bisphosphonates and rank ligand inhibitors for metastatic breast cancer to the bone is also allowed prior and during this trial.
- Patients with untreated new or progressive brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease
- Use of concomitant nitrates and PDE5 inhibitors.
- Use of potent CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers and not able to discontinue two weeks prior to enrolling onto the trial.
- Any other illness or condition that the treating investigator feels would interfere with study compliance or would compromise the patient's safety or study endpoints. Note: Patients with HIV or infectious hepatitis must exhibit well controlled disease with stable treatment regimen (where applicable) that in the opinion of the treating physician should not preclude them from participating in the study.
- Patients who are currently pregnant or breast feeding.
