Using SHR-A1811 for HER2-positive advanced breast cancer with brain metastases

A Prospective, Open-label Explorative Study of SHR-A1811 in HER2-expression Advanced Breast Cancer With Brain Metastases

Phase 2 Interventional Henan Cancer Hospital · NCT05769010

This study is testing a new treatment called SHR-A1811 for women with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread to the brain to see if it helps them better than current options.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of SHR-A1811 in treating women with HER2-positive or HER2-low advanced breast cancer that has spread to the brain. Participants must have at least one measurable brain lesion and have not received prior local treatment. The study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of SHR-A1811 in this specific patient population, alongside other treatments like Pyrotinib and Bevacizumab.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are females aged 18 and older with confirmed HER2-positive or HER2-low advanced breast cancer and measurable brain lesions.

Not a fit: Patients with leptomeningeal involvement or those requiring emergency neurosurgical intervention will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced breast cancer that has metastasized to the brain.

How similar studies have performed: While there is ongoing research in this area, the specific use of SHR-A1811 for this indication is novel and has not been extensively tested in previous studies.

2. Pathologically confirmed HER2-positive or HER2-low advanced breast cancer;
3. At least one measurable intracranial lesion according to RANO-BM criteria, which had not received local treatment;
4. Without prior cranial radiation and had no indication for immediate local treatment or refuse to local treatment;
5. More than 2 weeks from last systemic treatment; patients with new brain lesions after craniocerebral surgery were admitted if no radiotherapy was performed. Patients with HER2-Low disease must not have systemic treatment for brain metastases.
6. Prior HER2-target treatment, endocrine therapy and chemotherapy was allowed;
7. Life expectancy is not less than 6 months.
8. Adequate function of major organs.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Leptomeningeal involvement;
2. CNS complications requiring emergency neurosurgical intervention (e.g. excision, shunt tube placement);or uncontrolled symptomatic brain metastases;
3. Previous treatment with trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201a) or any other antibody drug conjugate (ADC) which consists of an exatecan derivative that is a topoisomerase 1 inhibitor;
4. Patients who had progressed on previous HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy were excluded from Arm 2, and those who had progressed on previous bevacizumab therapy were excluded from Arm 3 and Arm 5 ,and Arm 6 excludes patients who have progressed on prior PD-1 or PD-L1 therapy;
5. No concurrent antitumor therapy for metastatic cancer other than the study treatment;
6. Antitumor radiotherapy, chemotherapy, surgery, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy within 2 weeks or endocrine therapy within 1 week prior to enrolment;
7. Participated in other drug clinical trials within 4 weeks before admission;
8. History of clinically significant lung disease;
9. Other malignant tumors, excluding cured cervical carcinoma in situ, skin basal cell carcinoma or skin squamous cell carcinoma, have been diagnosed in the past five years.
10. According to the judgement of the researchers, there are concomitant diseases that seriously endanger the safety of patients or affect the completion of research (including, but not limited to, severe hypertension, severe diabetes, active infections, etc.).
11. Any other conditions that researchers believe that patients are unsuitable for this study.
