Study Summary

"This trial is testing two different treatments for patients with HER2 positive solid tumors - one with neratinib alone and another with a combination of neratinib and palbociclib. These medications

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with HER2 positive solid tumors, excluding breast cancer. Participants can have up to five prior treatments and treated brain metastases if stable for 3+ months without steroids. They must not have leptomeningeal disease or RB1 loss/mutation, agree to a biopsy (or provide recent tissue), and show measurable disease.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares the effectiveness of neratinib alone versus its combination with palbociclib in treating HER2 positive solid tumors. These kinase inhibitors block proteins that cause cancer cells to multiply, potentially shrinking or stabilizing the tumor.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Neratinib and palbociclib may cause diarrhea, liver issues, rash, nausea, fatigue, low blood cell counts increasing infection risk; heart problems are possible due to their action on specific proteins involved in tumor growth.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm II (neratinib maleate, palbociclib)Experimental Treatment8 Interventions
Patients receive neratinib maleate PO QD on days 1-14 of cycle 0 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive neratinib maleate PO QD on days 1-28 and palbociclib PO QD on days 1-21 of each subsequent cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo ECHO or MUGA during screening and on study, and CT or MRI and collection of blood samples throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo tumor biopsy during screening and on study.
Group II: Arm I (neratinib maleate)Active Control7 Interventions
Patients receive neratinib maleate PO QD on days 1-14 of cycle 0 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive neratinib maleate PO QD on days 1-28 of each subsequent cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who experience progression may crossover to Arm II. Patients undergo ECHO or MUGA during screening and on study, and CT or MRI and collection of blood samples throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo tumor biopsy during screening and on study.
