Phase II Study to Assess the Efficacy of ASLAN001 Plus Capecitabine in CNS Metastases for HER2+ Breast Cancer
- Conditions
- HER2-positive Breast Cancer
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT07166367
- Lead Sponsor
- National Cancer Centre, Singapore
- Brief Summary
This study is designed to study the efficacy of ASLAN 001 plus capecitabine for previously irradiated, progressing CNS metastases for HER2+ breast cancer patients.
- Detailed Description
Brain metastasis in breast cancer (BMBC) has very poor prognosis. The focus for this group of patients is on palliation as well as therapeutics that offer meaningful clinical benefits. Treatment options generally involve local control using either whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) or neurosurgery/radiosurgery or combination of both. Subsequent to local treatment, systemic control can be re-initiated via systemic chemotherapy/targeted therapies or trial participation.
This is a single arm, single center, phase 2 study. A total of 29 eligible HER2 positive breast cancer patients with irradiated, progressing brain metastasis will be enrolled to receive ASLAN001 400 mg orally BID with capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally BID for days 1-14 of a 21-day cycle. Treatment will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Baseline brain imaging using either magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scans will be performed; non-brain imaging will also be performed in the same settings. Radiological imaging to assess disease status will be performed at baseline and every 2 cycles until disease progression.

-
Patients with HER-2-positive breast cancer with brain metastasis (BMBC) who received either radiosurgery and/or WBRT and progressing in CNS.
-
Presence of more than one radiographically measurable brain metastasis.
-
Patients must complete radiation treatment with either whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) and/or radiosurgery at least 30 days 30 days prior to study entry. (No washout period for other antineoplastic treatment)

- Patients with non-measurable disease alone (i.e. leptomeningeal disease)
- Patients who need continuous treatment with proton pump inhibitors during the study period.
