Study Summary

This trial is testing a new combination of drugs to treat metastatic breast cancer that is positive for the HER2 gene.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that has a specific mutation (PIK3CA). Participants must understand the study and be willing to follow its procedures. They should have an ECOG performance status of 0-1, indicating they are fully active or restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory. People with severe medical conditions, recent anti-cancer therapy, pregnancy, certain drug hypersensitivities, or inability to swallow pills cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of Alpelisib and Tucatinib with Fulvestrant in patients who have PIK3CA-Mutant HER2+ metastatic breast cancer. It's designed to see how safe this combo is and how well it works compared to standard treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Alpelisib may cause high blood sugar levels, rash, nausea, fatigue and diarrhea. Tucatinib can lead to diarrhea as well as liver issues and mouth sores. Fulvestrant might result in injection site pain, weakness or bone pain.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Ib Safety Cohort /II Expansion CohortExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
In phase Ib, the tolerability of tucatinib and alpelisib combination will be confirmed and maximum tolerated dose determined. Therapy will be administered in 28 day cycles of tucatinib 300 mg PO BID and alpelisib 250 mg PO daily (dose level 1). Treatment will continue until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, withdrawal of consent, or study closure. Fulvestrant will also be administered in patients with HR+/HER2+ metastatic breast cancer. Once RP2D is determined, the study will be continued to phase II, and new patients will enroll at RP2D. All patients in phase IB part, who are remaining on study at the time of initiation of phase II, will be rolled over to phase II. At that time, their study drug doses will be modified as follows: (1) if a patient is on the drug doses lower than RP2D, doses will not be increased; (2) if a patient is on a higher doses compared to RP2D, doses of study drugs will be changed to RP2D.

Answered by AI

What is the cap on participation for this research trial?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov hosts data that verify this medical investigation is actively enrolling participants, having been initially posted on August 25th 2022 and updated most recently on October 14th 2022. The study requires 40 patients between 2 trial locations to be recruited."

Answered by AI

What goals is this research endeavor striving to accomplish?

"According to Seagen Inc., the trial's sponsor, Phase Ib Safety and Tolerability of alpelisib and tucatinib combination—as evaluated by NCI-CTCAE v 5.0—will be measured over a 20 Month period as the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes will include tumor response evaluations (CR, PR or SD according to RECIST 1.1), overall response rate (ORR; CR & PR) and clinical benefit rate (CBR; CR, PR & SD). Duration of Response is also being monitored from enrolment into the trial until progression or mortality occurs first. Lastly, incidence and severity"
