Abstract
TPS663 Background: Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-pathway is frequently activated in HER2-positive breast cancer and may play a major role in resistance to trastuzumab. BKM120 is an oral pan-class I PI3K inhibitor with potent and selective activity against wild-type and mutant PI3K p110α. PIKHER2 study will evaluate safety and efficacy of oral, daily lapatinib-BKM120 combination in HER2-positive, trastuzumab-resistant advanced breast cancer (ABC) with activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Methods: This open label, single arm, multi-center study includes a phase Ib dose-escalation part and a phase II expansion part at the recommended dose (RP2D). Primary objectives include determination of the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of BKM120 in combination with lapatinib in trastumuzab-resistant HER2-positive ABC (phase Ib part) and evaluation of the activity of BKM120-lapatinib combination at RP2D as measured by objective response rate (ORR) in patients with activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, as defined by PTEN-negative by IHC and/or somatic mutations (exons 9 and 20) of PIK3CA and/or overexpression of phospho-AKT by IHC (phase II part). Secondary objectives include safety and tolerability of the combination, clinical benefit and progression-free survival, pharmacokinetic profiles, biological and pharmacodynamic correlates. Main eligibility criteria are PS ≤ 1, HER2-positive ABC resistant to trastuzumab, documented activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway (phase II part only). A modified CRM using an adaptive Bayesian model guides the dose escalation of both agents with a maximum of 24 patients planned to be enrolled in phase Ib part. Efficacy will be tested according to a standard 2-stage Simon design under the following unacceptable and desirable hypotheses: H0, ORR <= 10% (unacceptable rate) vs. H1, ORR >=30% (desirable rate). A maximum of 35 patients with activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is planned to be enrolled in phase II part with an interim look after 18 evaluable patients will have been recruited. Clinical trial information: NCT01589861.
