Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced/metastatic breast cancer who have a BRCA mutation when treated with niraparib as compared to those treated with physician's choice

Detailed Description

This is a phase III, randomized, open label, multicenter, controlled trial of niraparib versus physician's choice in previously-treated, HER2 negative, germline BRCA mutation-positive breast cancer patients. Niraparib is an orally active PARP inhibitor. Niraparib (in a 2:1 ratio) will be administered once daily continuously during a 21-day cycle. Physician's choice will be administered on a 21-day cycle. Health-related quality of life will be measured. The safety and tolerability will be assessed by clinical review of adverse events (AEs), physical examinations, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and safety laboratory values.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) - Central Review Assessment [From the date of randomization to the date of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier, up to 4 years]

      The primary objective of this study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by blinded central review, of patients with advanced/metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative gBRCAmut breast cancer when treated with niraparib as compared to those treated with physician's choice single agent chemotherapy standards (eribulin, vinorelbine, gemcitabine or capecitabine). PFS is defined as the date of randomization to the date of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier as per Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 as determined by central review assessment.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall Survival [From treatment randomization to date of death of any cause, up to 4 years]

      To compare overall survival of patients with advanced/metastatic HER2-negative gBRCAmut breast cancer who have a gBRCAmut when treated with niraparib as compared to those treated with physician's choice. Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to the date of death of any causes.

    2. Determine Concordance Between gBRCAmut Tests for the Purpose of Developing a Commercial Companion Diagnostic Test [End of study]

      To establish germline BRCA (gBRCA) mutation status of screened patients using a centrally provided, validated test as well as future tests, and determine concordance between tests for the purpose of developing a commercial companion diagnostic test. The concordance of the candidate companion diagnostic test with the centralized gBRCA mutation test with respect to identifying gBRCA mutated patients will be evaluated using a separate blood sample. The sensitivity and specificity of the companion diagnostic test to the centralized validated test with respect to gBRCA status will be determined along with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

    3. Safety and Tolerability [End of Study]

      To evaluate safety and tolerability as measured by all adverse events (AEs). Safety and tolerability will be described using frequency of AEs and AEs of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade >=3. Safety analyses will include all patients who have received at least one dose of study drug and will be evaluated descriptively.

    4. Progression Free Survival (PFS) - Investigator Assessment [Assessed up to 4 years]

      PFS is defined as the date of randomization to the date of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier as per RECIST version 1.1 as determined by Investigator assessment.

    5. Time to Treatment Failure [Date of randomization to discontinuation of treatment for any reason, up to 4 years]

      To evaluate time to treatment failure (discontinuation of treatment for any reason). Time to treatment failure is defined from the date of randomization to progression or discontinuation of treatment for any reason, including but not restricted to disease progression, treatment toxicity, and death. If progressive disease occurred earlier than treatment discontinuation, the date of progressive disease was considered the date of treatment failure. At the time of analysis, patients who were continuing to receive treatment were censored on the date of last contact.

    6. Response Rate and Duration of Response [End of Study]

      To compare response rate and duration of response. The best response (complete response [CR], partial response [PR], stable disease [SD] or disease progression [PD]) for each patient will be summarized by treatment arm. The overall response rate (ORR) (ORR = CR+PR) will be summarized by treatment arm along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval. A chi-square test will be used to compare ORR between the treatment arms. Duration of response will be summarized for the subgroup of patients that obtained objective response (CR or PR) using the Kaplan-Meier method and be displayed graphically where appropriate. The median duration and 2-sided 95% confidence interval for the median will be provided for each treatment arm.

    7. To Compare Time to Deterioration of Health-related Quality of Life: QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L [13 months]

      To compare time to deterioration of health-related quality of life (HRQoL): European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) and EuroQol 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L). Patient reported outcomes were collected via questionnaires (EORTC QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L). These had to be completed within 4 weeks prior to randomization and subsequent questionnaires were filled in every 2 cycles (ie. 6 weeks) while on-treatment and every 3 months while in follow- up. Collection of HRQoL data was limited to the first 12 months after randomization. The primary HRQoL endpoint considered relevant for this study is time to HRQoL deterioration (TTQ). TTQ is defined as the time from randomization to death, progression or clinical relevant deterioration in pre-specified QLQ-C30 scales. Patients who had not experienced an event at the time of analysis were censored at the time of the last completed HRQoL assessment.

    8. Subsequent Therapies and Potential Relationships With Outcomes [End of Study]

      To describe subsequent therapies and potential relationships with outcomes

    9. Assess Genetic and Non-genetic Biomarkers [End of Study]

      To assess genetic and non-genetic biomarkers relating to treatment efficacy. Germline and tumor mutations may be explored including somatic BRCA1 and 2 mutations, reversion mutations, loss of heterozygosity as well as genome landscape and transcriptional or functional measures of homologous recombination (HR) deficiency.

    10. Assess Outcomes by Germline Mutation BRCA1 vs BRCA2 [End of Study]

      To assess outcomes by germline mutation BRCA1 vs BRCA2

    11. Post-treatment Data [End of Study]

      Descriptive summary statistics will be used to summarize post- treatment data (.i.e subsequent anticancer therapies and any new malignancy)

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details Previously treated, HER2 negative, germline BRCA mutation positive breast cancer patients were enrolled. The study was designed to randomize 306 patients, however enrollment was ended prematurely due to futility. Results are presented based on the primary analysis (data assessed from enrollment to end of follow-up, up to a maximum of 4 years).
    Pre-assignment Detail Of the 215 patients enrolled, 9 patients enrolled based on a local Breast Cancer gene (BRCA) test results were later determined to be BRCA wild type by central testing. Therefore, only 206 of the 215 patients enrolled were included in the analysis, and were considered in centrally confirmed intent-to-treat (ITT) population.

    Title Time to Treatment Failure
    Description To evaluate time to treatment failure (discontinuation of treatment for any reason). Time to treatment failure is defined from the date of randomization to progression or discontinuation of treatment for any reason, including but not restricted to disease progression, treatment toxicity, and death. If progressive disease occurred earlier than treatment discontinuation, the date of progressive disease was considered the date of treatment failure. At the time of analysis, patients who were continuing to receive treatment were censored on the date of last contact.
    Time Frame Date of randomization to discontinuation of treatment for any reason, up to 4 years

    Title Response Rate and Duration of Response
    Description To compare response rate and duration of response. The best response (complete response [CR], partial response [PR], stable disease [SD] or disease progression [PD]) for each patient will be summarized by treatment arm. The overall response rate (ORR) (ORR = CR+PR) will be summarized by treatment arm along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval. A chi-square test will be used to compare ORR between the treatment arms. Duration of response will be summarized for the subgroup of patients that obtained objective response (CR or PR) using the Kaplan-Meier method and be displayed graphically where appropriate. The median duration and 2-sided 95% confidence interval for the median will be provided for each treatment arm.

    Title To Compare Time to Deterioration of Health-related Quality of Life: QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L
    Description To compare time to deterioration of health-related quality of life (HRQoL): European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) and EuroQol 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L). Patient reported outcomes were collected via questionnaires (EORTC QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L). These had to be completed within 4 weeks prior to randomization and subsequent questionnaires were filled in every 2 cycles (ie. 6 weeks) while on-treatment and every 3 months while in follow- up. Collection of HRQoL data was limited to the first 12 months after randomization. The primary HRQoL endpoint considered relevant for this study is time to HRQoL deterioration (TTQ). TTQ is defined as the time from randomization to death, progression or clinical relevant deterioration in pre-specified QLQ-C30 scales. Patients who had not experienced an event at the time of analysis were censored at the time of the last completed HRQoL assessment.

    Limitations/Caveats

    IDMC interim analysis concluded that concerns with the quantity and quality of data in the control arm precluded meaningful comparative analyses and generation of a clinically useful endpoint, therefore enrollment was ended prematurely.
