s 81694 plus paclitaxel in metastatic breast cancer

Conditions: Metastatic Breast Cancer; Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Summary: the purpose of this study is to determine the safety profile, the maximum tolerated dose (mtd) and the associated dose-limiting toxicities (dlts) of s 81694 in combination with paclitaxel in metastatic breast cancer (mbc) patients, and to investigate the antitumour activity of the combination in metastatic triple negative breast cancer (mtnbc) patients.


Eligibility criteria:
inclusion criteria: for phase i : * histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic breast cancer, refractory to any standard therapy or for which the standard therapy is considered unsuitable; * patient must have at least one evaluable or measurable metastatic lesion (lesions as defined by revised response evaluation criteria in solid tumors). for phase ii : * histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced inoperable triple negative breast cancer with no prior anticancer therapy regimen in metastatic setting; * patient with a minimum washout period of 12 months following previous taxane based adjuvant therapy; * patient must have at least one measurable metastatic lesion. ascites, pleural effusion, and bone metastases are not considered measurable; * acceptance of pre-treatment metastatic biopsies for all patients and on-treatment metastatic biopsies in selected centres. for the whole study: * male or female subjects aged ≥ 18 years old, or legal age of the majority in the country; * eastern cooperative oncology group (ecog) performance status of 0 or 1; * estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months; * adequate haematological function based on the last assessment performed within 7 days prior to the first imp (investigational medicinal product) administration; * adequate renal function based on the last assessment performed within 7 days prior to the first imp administration; * adequate hepatic function based on the last assessment performed within 7 days prior to the first imp administration; * female participant of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum) within 7 days prior to the first day of test drug administration. effective contraception both for female patients of childbearing potential and male patients with parteners of childbearing potential. exclusion criteria: * other active malignancy within the last 3 years (except for basal cell carcinoma or a non-invasive/in situ cervical cancer or intra-mucosal gastro-intestinal cancers that were treated curatively); * presence of grade ≥ 2 toxic effects (excluding alopecia) due to prior cancer therapy; * known hypersensitivity to the imp (s 81694 and paclitaxel) or their excipients; * evidence of peripheral neuropathy of grade 2 or higher; * participant previously received paclitaxel and discontinued due to toxicity related to paclitaxel; * participant known as refractory to taxanes; * any prior cancer therapy within 4 weeks or 5 half-life (whichever is the shorter) before the first imp administration; * participant with current, serious, uncontrolled infections; * participant with brain metastasis or leptomeningeal metastasis (except patients with brain metastasis that have been stable post-radiation therapy and who are off steroids for \> 2 months); * history of cardiac disease; * uncontrolled arterial hypertension; * presence of risk factors for torsades de pointes (e.g. heart failure, hypokalaemia, family history of long qt syndrome); * any clinically significant medical condition (e.g. organ dysfunction) or laboratory abnormality likely to jeopardize the patient's safety or to interfere with the conduct of the study, in the investigator's opinion.
