  • Finding the Optimal Regimen for Mycobacterium Abscessus Treatment

    Mycobacterium abscessus (MABS) are a group of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) found in water and soil habitats that exhibit high levels of intrinsic multi-drug resistance. They are recognised opportunistic human pathogens capable of causing chronic pulmonary disease (MABS-PD), predominantly in individuals with underlying inflammatory lung diseases. Finding the Optimal Regimen for Mycobacterium abscessus Treatment (FORMaT) is an iterative, standing, platform trial with innovative and adaptive properties that evaluate and develop the optimal combinations of therapies for children and adults with MABS-PD to clear MABS infection with acceptable tolerance. We will use these opportunities afforded by the clinical trial platform to establish discovery studies to: (i) understand the effects of disease and treatment on health-related quality of life, (ii) determine cost effectiveness of interventions, (iii) optimise pharmacokinetic drug dosing, (iv) understand susceptibility to MABs-PD, (v) develop biomarkers of clinical disease, (vi) investigate genomics of MABs strains causing MABs-PD and development of antimicrobial resistance. FORMaT provides a pragmatic design to address challenges to develop an evidence base for the first time for MABS-PD. Initially, the trial has been designed to test therapies that are currently the basis for treatment guidelines for MABS-PD. The trial has the capacity to add new treatments and to eliminate therapies because of futility as they either lack efficacy or cause unacceptable toxicity. Novel therapeutic approaches are then tested against the previously determined optimal approaches, thus leading in an iterative fashion to improve microbiological clearance, and health outcomes associated with MABS-PD. The trial is designed as a series of trials within the main trial to enable investigation of the different phases of treatment; intensive (intravenous treatment phase) and consolidation (oral and or inhaled treatment phase) based on clinical guidelines. The primary outcome for each trial is microbiological clearance with clinical tolerance (Grade 1 or 2) based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 5). This enables subjects to continue in the trial even if tolerance is poor or they change treatments in a specific phase of the trial as those events contribute to the primary outcome determination.

  • PreOperative Endocrine Therapy for Individualised Care With Abemaciclib

    In women with hormone sensitive early breast cancer, taking a hormone therapy (also known as endocrine therapy) for at least five years after surgery is very effective at reducing the risk of the cancer returning. However, for some women their cancer may eventually become resistant to these drugs. POETIC-A Registration part will identify those who have a higher risk of developing resistance to standard endocrine therapy (ET). At least 8000 women diagnosed with early stage breast cancer will enter the Registration stage from 80 centres. Study doctors will use aromatase inhibitors (AIs), a type of ET, to treat the cancer for between 2 weeks and 6 months before surgery. A sample will be taken from the cancer during surgery and the study laboratory will measure a biological marker called Ki67. If the level of Ki67 does not drop after 2 weeks of AI treatment, the patient is likely to be less sensitive to endocrine therapy, and the study doctor will explore additional treatments after surgery in the POETIC-A Treatment part. Everyone who agrees to join the Treatment stage (2032 patients) will be randomly put into one of the 2 treatment groups; Group1: ET only; or Group2: ET plus a new drug called abemaciclib. The first aim of the Treatment stage is to confirm whether abemaciclib given in combination with ET is more effective than giving ET alone in preventing the cancer coming back. The study laboratory will perform a second test on the cancer sample, called an AIR-CIS test. This test aims to find out if particular groups of patients based on their tumour biology are more suitable for treatment with abemaciclib. Patients in Group 2 will receive ET plus abemaciclib for 2 years. Patients in both groups will have regular study visits during this period.
