Study Summary

This trial is testing the side effects and best dose of two drugs, DS-8201a and olaparib, in treating patients with HER2-expressing cancers. Olaparib is a drug that blocks an enzyme involved in many cell functions, including the repair of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage. DS-8201a is an antibody-drug conjugate. This agent has two components: an antibody component and a chemotherapy component. The antibody component is attached to the chemotherapy molecules. Upon administration of DS-8201a, the antibody targets and binds to tumor cells that have abundant HER2 (

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with HER2-expressing cancers that are advanced or can't be surgically removed, and specifically includes those with endometrial cancer. Participants must have tried at least one chemotherapy before, have a good performance status, and meet certain health criteria like normal organ function tests. Pregnant women, patients with recent heart attacks or uncontrolled infections, and those on certain drugs are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of DS-8201a (an antibody-drug conjugate targeting HER2-positive tumor cells) and olaparib (a drug blocking enzymes involved in DNA repair), to see if they can shrink or stabilize these cancers. It's a phase I study to determine side effects and optimal dosages.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to the immune system attacking normal organs due to the antibody component of DS-8201a; damage from blocked DNA repair mechanisms caused by olaparib; fatigue; blood disorders; increased risk of infection; as well as specific risks associated with each drug.

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (trastuzumab deruxtecan, olaparib)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions
Patients receive trastuzumab deruxtecan IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1 and olaparib PO BID on days 1-21 or days 8-14 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients taking olaparib BID on days 1-21 undergo collection of blood samples at the following times: baseline, days 1, 2, 8, and 15 of cycle 1, day 1 of cycle 2, days 1, 8, and 15 of cycle 3, day 1 of cycle 4, day 1 of every fourth cycle after cycle 4 and then at treatment end. Patients taking olaparib BID on days 8-14 undergo collection of blood samples at the following times: baseline, days 1, 2, 8, 9, and 15 of cycle 1, days 1 and 8 of cycle 2, days 1, 8, and 15 of cycle 3, day 1 of cycle 4, day 1 of every fourth cycle after that, and at treatment end. Patients undergo biopsy at baseline, and then on day 3 or day 10 of cycle 1. Patients also undergo echocardiography and CT throughout the trial.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What end-goals are researchers hoping to achieve with this clinical investigation?

"This clinical trial will assess the occurrence of adverse events over a span of 42 days as its primary outcome. Secondary outcomes include evaluating Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) using RESIST 1.1 criteria, examining Plasma Pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles through descriptive statistics and analysis of variance, and measuring Markers of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) damage response with multiplex Immunofluorescence in tumour samples during treatment for the dose expansion cohort to correlate these markers with responses."

Answered by AI

To what maximum capacity is the current clinical trial being conducted?

"To get the most out of this trial, 55 compliant participants are needed to join. Patients can flock to 2 specified sites in Minnesota and Florida - Mayo Clinic Rochester or Mayo Clinic Jacksonville respectively."

Answered by AI

Is this research pioneering in its field?

"Since first being trialled in 2005, sponsored by AstraZeneca and involving 98 participants, Trastuzumab Deruxtecan has been analyzed more extensively. This resulted in the drug receiving Phase 1 approval following its initial study. Nowadays, there are 222 active trials of this medication across 1679 cities and 61 nations worldwide."

Answered by AI

Does this investigation still have openings for participants?

"Affirmative. According to clinicaltrials.gov, this trial was initially posted on the 4th of January 2021 and has been actively recruiting 55 participants across four sites since its last update in October 26 2022"

Answered by AI

How is Trastuzumab Deruxtecan typically utilized to treat patients?

"The usual course of pharmacotherapy for this condition involves treatment with Trastuzumab Deruxtecan, which can also be effective when managing breast cancer, primary peritoneal cancer and a range of somatic hallucinations."

Answered by AI

What additional research has been conducted regarding the efficacy of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan?

"Trastuzumab Deruxtecan was initially studied in 2005 at a Research Site. Since then, 113 clinical studies have been completed and 222 trials are presently enrolling patients with many of them being conducted out of Rochester, Minnesota."

Answered by AI

Has the federal regulator approved Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for public use?

"Due to the limited data available on Trastuzumab Deruxtecan, there is only a tentative score of 1 when considering its safety profile. This figure reflects that this drug is still in Phase 1 trials, indicating insufficient evidence for efficacy and safety."

Answered by AI

What number of medical facilities are administering this clinical trial?

"Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Mayo Clinic in Florida located in Jacksonville, and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute situated in Boston are among the 4 available clinical trial sites. There is also a selection of other locations where patients can take part."
