Study Summary

This trialevaluates the effectiveness of a 3-drug combo in treating HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread and is not able to be surgically removed.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with HER2+ breast cancer that's advanced and can't be surgically removed. Participants must have had prior treatments including trastuzumab and a taxane, but not necessarily tucatinib. They should be in relatively good health otherwise, able to follow the study plan, and women of childbearing age must test negative for pregnancy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests how safe and effective the combination of tucatinib, trastuzumab, and eribulin is in treating patients who've already received certain other breast cancer treatments. The effectiveness will be measured by tumor response rate, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, liver issues indicated by abnormal function tests, heart problems like reduced ejection fraction or angina. There may also be gastrointestinal symptoms affecting absorption of oral medications.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Tucatinib/Eribulin/TrastuzumabExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
The initial dose of trastuzumab will be given as a loading dose of 8 mg/kg intravenously (IV), unless trastuzumab was administered within the prior 4 weeks, then the initial dose of trastuzumab will be administered at a dose of 6 mg/kg. Each trastuzumab dose is given once every 21 days, except in specific circumstances where it may be given weekly to compensate for modifications in treatment schedule Tucatinib 300 mg orally twice daily (PO BID) every day (Days 1-21) of each 21-day cycle using a modified schedule of events. Subcutaneous trastuzumab is given only once every three weeks as there is no allowance for weekly dosing. Eribulin will be given at a dose of 1.4 mg/M2 intravenously over a 2-5 minute period on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is there still an opportunity to join this clinical experiment?

"As per data on clinicaltrials.gov, this medical proof-of-concept is currently recruiting participants. Originally posted on November 17th 2022, the trial was last revised on January 5th 2023."

Answered by AI

How many individuals have been offered enrollment in this research protocol?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov displays that this experiment is presently searching for subjects, which was advertised on November 17th 2022 and updated most recently on January 5th 2023. This research necessitates the recruitment of 30 patients among 3 healthcare centres."

Answered by AI

Has the Food and Drug Administration sanctioned Tucatinib/Eribulin/Trastuzumab?

"Taking into account the fact that this study is only in its second phase, our team has assigned Tucatinib/Eribulin/Trastuzumab a score of 2 on safety. This signals there is some data available to support its security but none yet which demonstrates efficacy."

Answered by AI

What goals is this investigation attempting to achieve?

"The overall aim of this two year trial is to scrutinize the safety and acceptability of tucatinib when combined with eribulin and trastuzumab for treating unresectable or recurrent metastatic HER2+ breast cancer in those who have already had prior treatment with trastuzumab, plus trastuzumab deruxtecan. Secondary objectives include assessing efficacy against CNS disease according to Overall Survival and Progression Free Survival measures; evaluating effectiveness among patients who were previously given tucatinib per Overal Survival rate and PFS; as well as determining efficacy against HER2+ metastatic breast cancer through"
