  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject must meet all of the following applicable inclusion criteria to participate in this study:
  • Able to understand and willing to provide written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information. NOTE: HIPAA authorization may be included in the informed consent or obtained separately.
  • Male or female and age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent.
  • ECOG Performance Status of 0, 1 or 2 (Stage 1), or 0-1 (Stage 2) within 14 days prior to day 1 of treatment.
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed hormone receptor negative tumor (estrogen and progesterone) on pathology immunohistochemistry (IHC) assessment defined as <10% staining and HER2-negative, non-overexpressing defined by an IHC 0 or 1+ or fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) HER2:CEP17 ratio < 2.0 with an average HER2 gene copy number of <4 signals/nucleus, and:
  • Stage 1 (metastatic):
Show all 73Show fewer
  • Measurable (by RECIST v1.1) or evaluable lesions
  • Stage 2 (non-metastatic, treatment naïve, with no prior excisional biopsy/lumpectomy/LND staging):
  • Primary tumor size ≥ 2 cm by at least one radiographic or clinical measurement. NOTE: this requirement does not apply to subjects with inflammatory TNBC.
  • Clinical stage at presentation: cT1c-cT4, cN0-cN3
  • Tumor tissue:
  • Stage 1:
  • Willing to provide tumor tissue for research purposes. Fresh biopsy of metastatic lesion prior to day 1 of treatment preferred if feasible. If fresh biopsy of metastatic lesion is not feasible, fresh biopsy can be obtained from the primary tumor site (i.e. breast). Tumor tissue from bone metastases is not acceptable. If fresh biopsy from metastatic tumor or primary tumor site is not possible, archival tumor tissue (formalin-fixed paraffin embedded [FFPE] or tumor block) may be used as long as it is from within 12 months of study entry. NOTE: If tissue is not available within required timeframe (i.e., either fresh or archival) subject will still be eligible for trial.
  • Stage 2:
  • Willing to undergo fresh biopsy of the primary tumor prior to day 1 of treatment for research purposes (breast is preferred; lymph node is acceptable). If not clinically feasible, then provide archived tumor tissue (FFPE or tumor block) of the primary tumor within 12 months of study entry. If archived tissue will be submitted rather than fresh biopsy, the archived tissue must be assessed and documented by pathology to ensure adequate tumor is present for correlative analysis. NOTE: For subjects who do not have archival tumor tissue available within required timeframe or if archival tissue insufficient, a pre-treatment core biopsy of the primary breast tumor must be obtained. If subjects have inflammatory breast cancer and a core biopsy is not possible, consideration can be given to obtain a skin punch biopsy.
  • Demonstrate adequate organ function as defined in the table below; all screening labs to be obtained within 14 days prior to day 1 of treatment.
  • Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC): greater than or equal to 1,000/µL
  • Platelet Count greater than or equal to 100,000/µL without platelet transfusion within 4 weeks of day 1 of treatment
  • Hemoglobin (Hgb): greater than or equal to 9 g/dL without red blood cell transfusion within 4 weeks of day 1 of treatment
  • Serum creatinine (SCr): less than or equal to 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • For subjects anticipated to receive anthracyclines, adequate cardiac function as defined by ≥50% Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) by ECHO or MUGA within 28 days prior to day 1 of treatment.
  • Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to day 1 of treatment and documented. NOTE: Females are considered of childbearing potential unless they are surgically sterile (have undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) or are postmenopausal (>45 years of age and at least 12 consecutive months with no menses without an alternative medical cause).
  • FCBP must be willing to use a highly effective contraceptive method (i.e., highly effective achieves a failure rate of <1% per year when used consistently and correctly) or a combination method from the time of informed consent until 30 days after treatment discontinuation. Contraceptive methods with low user dependency are preferable but not required.
  • Acceptable methods of contraception (highly effective) are:
  • Single method (one of the following is acceptable):
  • Non-hormonal Intrauterine device (IUD)
  • Vasectomy of a female subject's partner
  • Sexual abstinence is considered a highly effective method only if defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with the study treatments.
  • Combination method (requires use of two of the following):
  • Diaphragm with spermicide (Cannot be used in conjunction with cervical cap/spermicide)
  • Cervical cap with spermicide (nulliparous women only)
  • Contraceptive sponge with spermicide (nulliparous women only)
  • Male condom or female condom (cannot be used together) with spermicide
  • Male subjects with female partners who are of child-bearing potential, should use a highly effective method of contraception during niraparib therapy and for 90 days after receiving the last dose of niraparib.
  • Subjects must agree to not donate blood for 90 days after receiving the last dose of niraparib.
  • Female subjects must agree to not breastfeed during the study or for 30 days after the last dose of study treatment and male subjects must not donate sperm during niraparib therapy and for 90 days after receiving the last dose of niraparib.
  • As determined by the enrolling physician, ability of the subject to understand and comply with study procedures for the entire length of the study.
  • Ability to swallow oral medications.
  • Stage 1 Exclusion Criteria
  • Subjects meeting any of the criteria below may not participate in Stage 1 of the study:
  • Subject has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Note: Subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate if there is no evidence of disease progression for at least 4 weeks after CNS-directed treatment as ascertained by clinical examination and brain imaging (MRI or CT) during the screening period, are asymptomatic, have no requirement for steroids, no requirement for anticonvulsants, and stable CNS radiographic study showing no significant vasogenic edema ≥ 4 weeks since completion of radiation and ≥ 1 week since discontinuation of steroids.

About this study

Official title: LCI-BRE-MTN-NIR-001: A Phase I Study of Niraparib in Combination With Standard Chemotherapy in Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

This is an open-label, two-stage, multi-arm Phase 1 study designed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of combining niraparib with four standard chemotherapy regimens used to treat TNBC.

Read the detailed description

Niraparib is an oral, selective poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP)-1 and PARP-2 inhibitor. A strategy of combining a PARP inhibitor, as a chemopotentiator, with chemotherapy is a promising approach in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer. This study will evaluate the combination of niraparib with several standard chemotherapy regimens used to treat breast cancer to determine a recommended Stage 2 dose (RS2D) of chemotherapy regimens with niraparib. Stage 1 will be conducted in subjects with metastatic TNBC and will include 4 chemotherapy treatment arms in escalating dose levels (Arm 1: doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide (AC) every 14 days with pegfilgrastim (or biosimilar) for 4 cycles followed by AC every 21 days; Arm 2: AC every 21 days; Arm 3: weekly paclitaxel; Arm 4: weekly paclitaxel + carboplatin every 21 days), each combined with oral daily niraparib. Treatment will continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or subject withdrawal.Stage 2 will be conducted in subjects with non-metastatic TNBC. Subjects will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy with either AC every 14 days (Arm 1A) or every 21 days (Arm 2A) at the RS2D of chemotherapy combined with oral daily niraparib from Stage 1. Treatment will continue for 4 cycles.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Niraparib, Doxorubicin and Cyclophosphamide in people with Breast Cancer, run by Wake Forest University Health Sciences.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 73 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Stage 1 - Evaluate dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) separately for Arms 1, 2, 3, and 4 and establish recommended Stage 2 dose of chemotherapy in combination with niraparib (time frame: up to 28 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Apr 2022.
