Overview

A Study to Determine Best Tumor Response With Trastuzumab Emtansine in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) Overexpressing Solid Tumors

Status:
Completed
Trial end date:
2018-04-10
Target enrollment:
0
Participant gender:
All
Summary
This multicenter, non-randomized, Phase II study will assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of trastuzumab emtansine in participants with HER2 overexpressing locally advanced (unresectable and not treatable with curative intent) or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (UBC), locally advanced (unresectable and not treatable with curative intent) or metastatic pancreatic cancer/cholangiocarcinoma with advanced disease where cure is no longer possible and where no other treatment options are available anymore. Participants will receive intravenous (IV) infusion of trastuzumab emtansine as Regimen A (2.4 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg], weekly [qw]) or Regimen B (3.6 mg/kg, every 3 weeks [q3w]) until unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, disease progression (PD), or death, whichever occurs first. Based on tolerability and safety aspects, steering committee and Independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) will decide on expansion of the study to include more participants with other carcinoma types.

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Histologically centrally confirmed HER2-positive (immunohistochemistry [IHC]3+ in
greater than or equal to [>/=] 30 percent [%] of tumor cells): locally advanced
(unresectable and not treatable with curative intent), or metastatic UBC or locally
advanced (unresectable and not treatable with curative intent) or metastatic
pancreatic cancer/cholangiocarcinoma

- There must be no standard treatment options available for participants with the above
HER2 overexpressing tumors and they must have undergone at least one prior
platinum-based treatment for locally advanced (unresectable and not treatable with
curative intent) or metastatic tumor (Note: for pancreatic cancer/cholangiocarcinoma,
prior treatments are not required to be platinum-based.)

- Participant's lesion should be measurable according to RECIST V1.1 on diagnostic
computed tomography (CT) scan/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); Target lesion(s)
should not have been previously irradiated

- At least one formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) biopsy of the primary tumor
and/or from a metastatic site is required

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 0-2

- No significant cardiac history and a current left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)
>/=50%

- Adequate organ function

- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria:

- Participants with previous exposure to HER2-targeted therapies in any setting

- Participants showing histologically confirmed focal HER2-expression, that is, less
than (<) 30% of positively stained tumor cells

- Participants with brain metastasis as the sole site of metastatic disease and/or are
symptomatic or require therapy to control symptoms

- Current uncontrolled hypertension (systolic greater than [>] 150 millimeters of
mercury [mmHg] and/or diastolic >100 mmHg)

- Current unstable angina pectoris

- History of symptomatic congestive heart failure (CHF) of any New York Heart
Association (NYHA) criteria or ventricular arrhythmia that requires treatment

- History of myocardial infarction within the last 6 months

- Peripheral neuropathy, Grade >/=3

- Current dyspnea at rest due to complications of advanced malignancy, or other diseases
that require continuous oxygen therapy

- Current severe, uncontrolled systemic disease

- History of other malignancy within the last 5 years

- Concurrent, serious, uncontrolled infections or current known infection with human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV), active hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C

- Known prior severe hypersensitivity to trastuzumab and trastuzumab emtansine or the
excipients of the investigational medicinal product (IMP)

- Clinically significant bleeding within 30 days before enrollment

- Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to
randomization or anticipation of the need for major surgery during the course of study
treatment

- Concurrent participation in any other therapeutic clinical trial
