SMP-656 for HER2-Positive Advanced Breast Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if single-agent SMP-656 works to treat patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have progressed after prior HER2-targeted topoisomerase inhibitor antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) treatment. It will also evaluate the safety of SMP-656 and identify the optimal dose for future trials. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the objective tumor response rate (DOR, PFS, DCR, OS) of two different dose regimens of intravenous SMP-656? What are the side effects and safety risks of these two SMP-656 dose regimens? Which dose level achieves the best balance of anti-cancer activity and tolerability? This is a randomized, open-label, dose-optimization Phase II clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive one of two fixed doses of SMP-656 given intravenously once every 3 weeks. Participants will: Complete screening tests within 28 days before the first SMP-656 infusion to confirm eligibility Receive study treatment every 3 weeks until cancer progression, intolerable side effects, withdrawal, or other stopping criteria Have regular tumor imaging scans, physical exams, vital sign checks, and blood tests to monitor tumor response and safety Attend a safety follow-up visit 30 days after the last dose of SMP-656 Complete longer-term survival follow-up after the 30-day safety check Provide optional blood and tumor tissue samples for additional research studies

Mechanisms of Response and Resistance to Innovative Treatments in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer

Ample evidence has highlighted the significant clinical benefit of novel therapies for many patients with advanced breast cancer (aBC). The use of CDK inhibitors, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), and PARP inhibitors as first-line or subsequent treatments has improved progression-free survival (PFS) rates compared to conventional therapies. In selected cases, these treatments have also increased overall survival (OS), reshaping the therapeutic landscape for advanced breast cancer. However, several key questions remain unanswered. For example, what should be the first-line treatment when multiple effective options are available? Determining the optimal sequence of drugs in successive lines of therapy is another major challenge. Furthermore, the development of resistance to treatment and the occurrence of severe adverse events that may lead to early discontinuation or fatal outcomes are pressing concerns. That said, identifying robust predictive biomarkers of response or resistance is crucial for ensuring that patients receive the most effective treatment while avoiding unnecessary exposure to therapies that could cause harm without benefit. Additionally, when multiple effective options exist, selecting the optimal treatment algorithm for each patient based on clinical, pathological, and molecular biomarkers is essential. We herein, aim at employing high throughput methodologies, such as Whole Exome Sequencing, circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) analysis, digital pathology and radiomics analyses, as well as real-world data obtained both from patients records for the training of a ML-based algorithm that can predict response or resistance to a specific treatment, based on the genetic make-up of the patient and the molecular profile of the tumour.

Beamion BCGC-1: A Study to Find a Suitable Dose of Zongertinib Used Alone and in Combination With Other Treatments to Test Whether it Helps People With Different Types of HER2+ Cancer That Has Spread

This study is open to adults aged 18 years and older with different types of HER2+ cancer that has spread and cannot be removed by surgery. People can take part in this study if their tumours show HER2 aberrations and previous treatment was not successful. The purpose of this study is to find a suitable dose of zongertinib that people with different types of HER2+ cancer that has spread can tolerate best when taken together with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), with trastuzumab and capecitabine, with zanidatamab, or with mFOLFOX6 (with or without trastuzumab). Another purpose is to check whether zongertinib alone and in combination with other treatments can make tumours shrink. Zongertinib inhibits HER2. HER2 causes cancer cells to grow. In this study, participants receive treatment in cycles. Study participants are treated with zongertinib alone or in combination with other treatments. This study has 2 parts. In Part 1, participants in different groups receive increasing doses of zongertinib. In Part 2, participants are put into different groups by chance. Each group receives a different dose of zongertinib. Every participant has an equal chance of being in each group. During the study, the participants visit the study site regularly. In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of zongertinib that participants can tolerate when taken together with other treatments. To find this out, researchers look at certain severe health problems that a number of participants have. The doctors regularly check the size of the tumour with imaging methods (CT/MRI) during the study. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

This is an umbrella study evaluating the efficacy and safety of multiple treatment combinations in participants with metastatic or inoperable locally advanced breast cancer. The study will be performed in two stages. During Stage 1, seven cohorts will be enrolled in parallel in this study: Cohort 1 will consist of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive participants who have received no prior systemic therapy for metastatic or inoperable locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) (first-line \[1L\] PD-L1+ cohort). Cohort 2 will consist of participants who had disease progression during or following 1L treatment with chemotherapy for metastatic or inoperable locally-advanced TNBC and have not received cancer immunotherapy (CIT) (second-line \[2L\] CIT-naïve cohort). Cohort 3, 5, 6 and 7 will consist of participants with locally advanced or metastatic hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative disease with one or more PIK3CA mutations. Cohort 4 will consist of participants with locally advanced or metastatic HER2+ /HER2-low disease with one or more PIK3CA mutations who had disease progression on standard-of-care therapies (HER2+ /HER2-low cohort). In each cohort, eligible participants will initially be assigned to one of several treatment arms (Stage 1). During Stage 2, participants in the 2L CIT-naïve cohort who experience disease progression, loss of clinical benefit, or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be eligible to continue treatment with a different treatment combination, provided Stage 2 is open for enrollment and all eligibility criteria are met.

The purpose of this study is to generate evidence on an alternative dosing strategy for CDK4/6 inhibitors to help more patients with Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) (age ≥ 60 years) tolerate side effects and stay on treatment longer, to derive the most clinical benefit from these drugs. The primary objective of the CDK Study is to compare time to treatment discontinuation (TTD) on the approved dosing for palbociclib (125 mg orally daily on days 1-21 of 28-day cycle) or ribociclib (600 mg orally daily on days 1-21 of 28-day cycle) vs. TTD using titrated dosing approach with the same schedule but starting at a lower dose of palbociclib (100 mg or 75 mg) or ribociclib (400 mg or 200 mg) and escalating the dose if well-tolerated in combination with provider/patient choice endocrine therapy (aromatase inhibitor (AI) or fulvestrant) in patients age 60 or older with HR+/HER2- MBC. The secondary and exploratory objectives will generate evidence needed to personalize treatment decisions by comparing patient-centric secondary outcomes and evaluating baseline factors. Together with their treating physician, participants will choose the CDK4/6 inhibitor (palbociclib or ribociclib) and which endocrine therapy (aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant) of their choice but will be randomized to either Arm 1 (indicated dosing) or Arm 2 (titrated dosing). Note: Telehealth visits are allowed at any time per institutional guidelines. In addition, the study allows for remote consenting per institutional guidelines.
