Carboplatin and Combination Chemotherapy With or Without Veliparib in Treating Patients With Stage IIB-IIIC Breast Cancer
Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]
Purpose | This randomized phase II trial studies how well carboplatin and combination chemotherapy with or without veliparib works in treating patients with stage IIB-IIIC breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving carboplatin and combination chemotherapy are more effective with or without veliparib is more effective in treating breast cancer. |

Current Primary Outcome Measures | Pathologic complete response (PCR) [Time Frame: At the time of surgery] [Designated as safety issue: No]PCR is defined as the absence of any residual invasive cancer on hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) evaluation of the resected breast specimen and all sampled ipsilateral lymph nodes. The posterior distribution of the odds ratio will be used to assess whether carboplatin and/or carboplatin +veliparib in combination with paclitaxel has a higher PCR compared to each other and simulations will be used to compare to paclitaxel alone. A 95% credible region will be calculated for the odds ratio comparing the two combination treatments, the odds ratio comparing each treatment to paclitaxel alone, the PCR for each treatment regimen, for the difference in the PCR between each combination regimen, and the difference of each combination regimen to paclitaxel alone. |

Detailed Description | PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: 1) To compare the pathologic complete response (path CR) in patients with stage IIB or stage III triple negative breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant paclitaxel and carboplatin to the path CR of patients treated with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and veliparib. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: 1. Relapse free survival (follow-up period of 36 months). 2. Overall clinical response to neoadjuvant therapy. 3. To determine whether expression of 5 biomarkers (cytokeratin [CK]5, endothelial growth factor receptor [EGFR], excision repair cross complementing 1 [ERCC1], Ki67, poly[adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosyl]transferase [Parp1]) correlate with a higher pCR in response to a particular treatment combination. 4) To determine whether tumors with biomarker signatures that are most like breast cancer (BRCA)-mutated tumors (high expression of CK5 and high expression of EGFR), will correlate with a higher likelihood of pCR with treatment with a PARP inhibitor in combination with chemotherapy. 5) To determine whether tumors with high expression of the markers ERCC1, Ki67, and Parp1 will correlate with a higher rate of pCR with platinum agents in combination with paclitaxel or a PARP inhibitor. 6) To correlate response of tumor on imaging (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], ultrasound [US], and positron emission tomography [PET]/computed tomography [CT]) with path CR. 7) To correlate levels of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with pathologic CR. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: 1. To evaluate additional exploratory biomarkers based on evidence of possible prognostic or predictive value: BRCA1/BRCA2 complete mutational and rearrangement test. CK14, CK17, cyclin B1, cluster of differentiation (CD)44, CD24, cyclin D1, vimentin, thymidine phosphorylase, inhibitor of differentiation (ID)4, p53, p63, p73, differentiated embryo-chondrocyte expressed gene (Dec)1, phospho-HistoneH3, thymidylate synthase, p16, gammaH2AX, geminin, RAD51. 2. To determine which arms are best tolerated by patients with co-morbid conditions, such as hypertension and diabetes. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. ARM I: Patients receive paclitaxel intravenously (IV) and carboplatin IV on day 1 (course 1 only) or day 2 (courses 2-12). Treatment repeats every 7 days for 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 21 days after the last course, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ARM II: Patients receive veliparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-5. Patients also receive paclitaxel IV and carboplatin IV on day 3 (course 1 only) or day 4 (courses 2-12). Treatment repeats every 7 days for 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 21 days after the last course, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 36 months. |
