Abstract
Background:
Pre-clinical data and results from early phase clinical trials point to synergistic antitumor activity and potential efficacy of palbociclib when given in combination with anti-HER2 therapy (tx). The aim of PATINA is to determine the effect of adding palbociclib to anti-HER2 and ET maintenance after induction tx in the 1st line setting for HR+/HER2+ MBC.
Trial Design:
The PATINA trial (AFT-38/NCT02947685) is a pivotal, open-label, international, phase III study. Following 6-8 cycles of chemotherapy (taxane or vinorelbine) with anti-HER2 tx for MBC participants will be randomized 1:1 to standard anti-HER2 tx (trastuzumab +/- pertuzumab) in combination with ET with or without palbociclib until disease progression. ET options are either an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant. Premenopausal patients (pts) must receive ovarian suppression. The trial is open to men or women with histologically confirmed HR+/HER2+ MBC provided they are without evidence of disease progression by local assessment after induction tx. Total planned accrual is 496 pts. Primary objective is to demonstrate that the combination of palbociclib with anti-HER2 tx plus ET is superior to anti-HER2 tx plus ET alone in prolonging progression-free survival (PFS). Key secondary objectives are measures of tumor control, overall survival, safety and Quality of Life. The main translational science objective is to compare PFS estimates according to PIK3CA mutation status. The study has a 90% power to detect a hazard ratio of 0.667 in favor of the palbociclib arm. All pts approached to participate in PATINA will be asked to share remaining biospecimens and clinical data with the Mastering Breast Cancer Initiative. This initiative was created in order to understand the natural history of MBC and how it envolves over time with the aim to develop new treatments for this patient population. Recruitment has started in 07/2017 and is planned for approximately 22 months in 140 sites in Australia, Germany, Italy, France, New Zealand, Spain, and the US. 69 pts have been recruited so far.
The study is sponsored by Alliance Foundation Trials (AFT) and financially supported by Pfizer
