Abstract 1421
Background
Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) represents approximately 15% of all breast cancer. It confers a poorer prognosis relative to the other breast cancer subtypes, with an increased likelihood of recurrence and death within 5 years of diagnosis. There is no standard of care specifically for patients presenting with TNBC. Altered amino acid metabolism have been shown to play a role in TNBC. Eryaspase, asparaginase (ASNase) encapsulated in red blood cells (RBCs) is an investigational product under development. Following infusion, asparagine and glutamine are actively transported into RBCs where they are hydrolyzed by the encapsulated ASNase. In a recent randomized phase 2b study, eryaspase has demonstrated evidence of improved overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) and acceptable safety when combinedwith gemcitabine or FOLFOX therapyinpatients with advanced pancreatic cancer whose disease progressed following first-line treatment (NCT02195180). The demonstration of ASNase activity of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy including DNA-damaging agents in both preclinical and clinical settings provide a rationale to further test combination in TNBC.
Trial design
TRYbeCA-2 is an international, randomized, open-label phase 2/3 trial (N = 64 for phase 2) of eryaspase combined with chemotherapy in patients with locally recurrent or metastatic TNBC who have not received prior systemic therapy for locally recurrent or metastatic disease. Patients are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive gemcitabine/carboplatin with or without eryaspase, administered as IV infusion on Day 1 and Day 8 of each 3-week cycle. Key eligibility criteria include measurable lesion(s), performance status 0 or 1, and adequate organ function. The primary endpoint is the objective response rate (ORR) as determined by an independent radiological review. Key secondary endpoints include ORR as determined by the investigator’s assessment, clinical benefit rate, overall survival, progression-free survival, safety, biomarker research, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
