Summary
This is an open label investigator initiated Phase II study of single agent pembrolizumab (Keytruda) in metastatic HER2-receptive negative breast cancer patients with germline deletion in the cytosine deaminase (APOBEC3B) gene. Approximately 44 subjects from Malaysia and Singapore will be enrolled in this study to examine the efficacy of pembrolizumab when given 200 mg intravenously (IV) every 3 weeks (Q3W) for up to 35 administrations (2 years). This study will be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. Specific procedures to be performed during the trial, as well as their prescribed times and associated visit windows, are outlined in the Trial Flow Chart.
Description
This is an open label investigator initiated Phase II study of single agent pembrolizumab (Keytruda) in metastatic HER2-receptive negative breast cancer patients with germline deletion in the cytosine deaminase (APOBEC3B) gene. Approximately 44 subjects will be enrolled in this study to examine the efficacy of pembrolizumab when given 200 mg intravenously (IV) every 3 weeks (Q3W) for up to 35 administrations (2 years). ER+ patients need to have failed at least one line of prior hormonal treatment. All patients need to have failed at least one line, but no more than 3 lines, of prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting.
Disease status will be followed by imaging studies at 9 weekly interval ( 7 days) during the first year, independent of any treatment delays, and every 12 weeks (7 days) after the first year, until disease progression, start of non-study treatment, withdrawal of consent to study participation, death or end of the study. RECIST 1.1 will be used as the primary efficacy endpoint of response rate. Safety will be monitored according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.0.
Study treatment will continue until any of the following occurs:
- Disease progression, as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumour (RECIST version 1.1) (when progressive disease [PD] is confirmed, subject may be further followed up using consensus guideline of modified RECIST 1.1 [iRECIST] criteria);
- Unacceptable toxicity;
- Intercurrent illness that necessitates discontinuation of study treatment;
- Investigator's decision to withdraw the subject,
- Pregnancy;
- Non-compliance with study treatment or procedure requirements;
- Withdrawal of consent to treatment;
- Death;
- End of the study;
- Other administrative reasons requiring cessation of study treatment.
This study will be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices.
Specific procedures to be performed during the trial, as well as their prescribed times and associated visit windows, are outlined in the Trial Flow Chart - Section 6.0. Details of each procedure are provided in Section 7.0 - Trial Procedures.
Subject will be given a pre-screening inform consent form to participate in the genetic testing to determine their APOBEC3B germline mutation status.
Subject with confirmed APOBEC3B germline mutation will be given another inform consent form to participate in the main study.
The primary objective of the trial is to determine the efficacy of pembrolizumab in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer subjects with APOBEC3B germline deletion polymorphism. Secondary objectives include progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and response duration in this subject populations. The relationships of the germline variation, the associated molecular signatures, as well as other potential prognostic biomarkers with the study treatment will be explored as the exploratory objectives.
