A Trial of Preoperative MM-121 With Paclitaxel in HER2-negative Breast Cancer
- Conditions
- ER Positive, Her2 Negative Breast Cancer PatientsTriple Negative Breast Cancer Patients
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT01421472
- Lead Sponsor
- Merrimack Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
To demonstrate whether addition of MM-121 to paclitaxel is more effective than treatment with paclitaxel alone, when administered as part of the neoadjuvant treatment in Her2 negative locally advanced operable breast cancer patients.
- Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized, Phase II study of preoperative MM-121 with paclitaxel in HER2-negative breast cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive paclitaxel with or without MM-121 for 12 weeks followed by 4 cycles of doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide and subsequent surgery.

Group Intervention Description MM-121 (SAR256212) + paclitaxel MM-121 2 week run-in of MM-121 followed by MM-121 + dosing of paclitaxel IV, followed by standard dosing of doxorubicin IV plus cyclophosphamide IV, followed by surgery. MM-121 (SAR256212) + paclitaxel Paclitaxel 2 week run-in of MM-121 followed by MM-121 + dosing of paclitaxel IV, followed by standard dosing of doxorubicin IV plus cyclophosphamide IV, followed by surgery. Paclitaxel only Paclitaxel Standard dosing of paclitaxel IV, followed by standard dosing of doxorubicin IV plus cyclophosphamide IV, followed by surgery.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) (Rate of pCR) At time of surgery, an expected average of 24-26 weeks Pathologic Complete Response was defined as the absence of invasive cancer in the breast and lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy and reported according to the current AJCC staging system for neoadjuvant clinical studies. The endpoint was to determine the pathologic Complete Response (pCR) rates associated with weekly treatment of MM-121 plus paclitaxel followed by the combination treatment of doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide compared with weekly paclitaxel alone followed by the combination treatment of doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative primary breast cancer.
