Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that the administration of Toripalimab (anti-PD-1 antibody, JS001) combined to metronomic Vinorelbine may be an interesting therapeutic option for female patients with HER2- metastatic breast cancer. The approach suggested here is to deplete and active the immune response of these patients. The combination of Toripalimab and Vinorelbine would provide a higher gain in anti-tumor response in these patients than in those with chemotherapy alone.

The investigators proposal is to conduct a multicentric, single arm, Phase II trial in HER2- patients with metastatic breast cancer, aiming to evaluate the clinical activity of the combination therapy Toripalimab + metronomic Vinorelbine. Patients will receive Vinorelbine (40 mg/day, tiw, per os) and Toripalimab (240 mg every 3 weeks, intravenously [IV]). The adverse events of the two drugs are well known.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [6 weeks of treatment]

      CBR, defined as the percentage of Complete Response (CR), (Partial Response) PR or Stable Disease (SD) . Response will be evaluated by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) V1.1.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    2. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [15 months]

      Measured from the date of study drugs start to the date of the first objective disease progression or death.

    3. Overall Survival (OS) [15 months]
