Multicenter Phase II Study of Lurbinectedin in BRCA-Mutated and Unselected Metastatic Advanced Breast Cancer and Biomarker Assessment Substudy
2018
Purpose This multicenter phase II trial evaluated lurbinectedin (PM01183), a selective inhibitor of active transcription of protein-coding genes, in patients with metastatic breast cancer. A unicenter translational substudy assessed potential mechanisms of lurbinectedin resistance. Patients and Methods Two arms were evaluated according to germline BRCA1/2 status: BRCA1/2 mutated (arm A; n = 54) and unselected ( BRCA1/2 wild-type or unknown status; arm B; n = 35). Lurbinectedin starting dose was a 7-mg flat dose and later, 3.5 mg/m2 in arm A. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). The translational substudy of resist…
Balixafortide (a CXCR4 antagonist) + eribulin in HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC): Survival outcomes of the phase I trial.
2019
2606 Background: Balixafortide (B) is a potent antagonist of the chemokine receptor CXCR4. Preclinical evidence suggests that disrupting CXCR4 dependent pathways prevents development of breast cancer metastases, enhances the cytotoxic effect of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, and counteracts tumor cell evasion of the immune system. Encouraging safety and efficacy data were published recently from the ongoing Phase 1 trial investigating B + eribulin (E) in patients with HER2 negative MBC (Pernas S. et al. Lancet Oncol. 2018; 19: 812−24). The objective response rate, median progression free survival and median overall survival (OS) for the expanded cohort (EC) and the overall efficacy popula…
Balixafortide (a CXCR4 antagonist) plus eribulin in HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer: Dose-response analysis of efficacy from phase I single-ar…

e15209 Background: Balixafortide (B) is a potent, selective antagonist of the chemokine receptor CXCR4. High CXCR4 levels correlate with aggressive metastatic phenotypes and poor prognosis in metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Efficacy and safety data were published recently from the Phase 1 trial investigating B + eribulin (E) in patients with HER2 negative MBC1. We report the final efficacy analyses from this trial, including assessment of dose-response. Methods: In this single-arm, dose escalation trial, patients (pts) received E + increasing doses of B using a 3+3 design in 3 parts: Part I (cohorts received low E doses); Part II (dose-escalation cohort for B [1−5.5mg/kg] + 1.4mg/m2 E); Ex…
