Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a randomized, international, multicenter, Phase II study designed to explore the efficacy of olaparib or olaparib in combination with durvalumab in platinum-treated mTNBC. The primary objectives are to explore olaparib or olaparib in combination with durvalumab as maintenance therapy following clinical benefit with platinum-based therapy in subjects with mTNBC.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Subjects suitable for enrollment into this trial are adult subjects with histologically documented triple negative adenocarcinoma of the breast that is inoperable, locally advanced, or metastatic, and is not amenable to resection with curative intent, and who have received at least 4 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy in the 1st or 2nd line setting AND derived clinical benefit (CR / PR / SD) per RECIST 1.1 with platinum-based therapy as determined by the treating physician.

Eligible subjects will be randomized to either olaparib or olaparib in combination with durvalumab. Study treatment will continue until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, elective withdrawal from the study, or study completion or termination. Upon treatment discontinuation, subjects will be followed every 2 months for survival.

Although randomization will be used to allocate subjects to either the olaparib or olaparib in combination with durvalumab arm, no comparisons between treatment regimens are planned. The purpose of randomization was to reduce bias due to subject selection into either treatment arm.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Age ≥ 21 years of age
2. ECOG performance status 0-2
3. Inoperable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer not amenable to resection with curative intent and histologically confirmed to be estrogen receptor (ER) negative, progesterone receptor (PR) negative, and HER2 negative:

* ER negative status is defined as \< 1% tumor cells positive for ER by immunohistochemistry (IHC), irrespective of staining intensity
* PR negative status is defined as \< 1% tumor cells positive for PR by IHC, irrespective of staining intensity

NOTE: Enrollment is permitted for ER/PR low-expression subjects (defined as ≤ 10%) who are expected to benefit from this trial at the investigator's discretion.
* HER2 negative status is determined by:
* IHC 1+, as defined by incomplete membrane staining that is faint/barely perceptible and within \> 10% of invasive tumor cells, or
* IHC 0, as defined by no staining observed or membrane staining that is incomplete and is faint/barely perceptible and within ≤ 10% of the invasive tumor cells, or
* FISH negative based on:
* Single-probe average HER2 copy number \< 4.0 signals / cell, or
* Dual-probe HER2/CEP17 ratio \< 2.0 with an average HER2 copy number \< 4.0 signals / cell
4. Minimum six 1-weekly doses or three 3-weekly doses of platinum chemotherapy (monotherapy or combination therapy at investigator's discretion) with stable disease (SD), partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) to the platinum therapy as assessed by investigator.

8. Total bilirubin \<1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) with the following exception: subjects with known Gilbert's disease who have serum bilirubin \<3 x ULN may be enrolled.
9. Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) \<2.5 x ULN with the following exceptions: subjects with documented liver or bone metastases may have AST and ALT \<5 x ULN.
10. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) \<2 x ULN (\<5 x ULN in subjects with known liver involvement and \<7 ULN in subjects with known bone involvement).
11. Serum creatinine \<1.5 x ULN or creatinine clearance \>51 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula (Cockcroft and Gault 1976) or by 24-hour urine collection for determination of creatinine clearance.
12. For subjects of childbearing potential, agreement (by both subject and partner) to use two effective forms of contraception, including surgical sterilization, reliable barrier method, birth control pills, contraceptive hormone implants, or true abstinence and to continue its use for the duration of the study and for 3 months after last dose of study treatment.
13. Subjects of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test during their screening visit. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required.
14. Subjects willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examination.
