Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) With or Without Pertuzumab Versus Taxane, Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab in HER2-positive Metastatic Breast Cancer (DESTINY-Breast09)

Phase 3
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Breast Cancer; HER2-positive; Metastatic
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04784715
Lead Sponsor
AstraZeneca
Brief Summary

The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan (also known as T-DXd, DS-8201a), either alone or in combination with pertuzumab, in treating patients with Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer as a first line of treatment in the metastatic setting.

Detailed Description

Eligible participants will be those diagnosed with HER2-positive (IHC 3+ or ISH+), metastatic breast cancer, who have received no prior chemotherapy or HER2-targeted therapy for advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

The study aims to evaluate the efficacy, and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan, alone or with pertuzumab, compared with the standard of care treatment (taxane \[docetaxel or paclitaxel\], trastuzumab and pertuzumab). This study aims to see if trastuzumab deruxtecan allows patients to live longer without the cancer getting worse, or simply to live longer, compared to patients receiving standard of care chemotherapy. This study is also looking to see how the treatment and the cancer affects patients' quality of life.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Patients must be ≥18 years of age

  • Pathologically documented breast cancer that:

    1. is advanced or metastatic
    2. is locally assessed and prospectively centrally confirmed as HER2-positive (IHC3+ or ISH+)
    3. is documented by local testing as hormone receptor (HR)-positive or HR-negative disease in the metastatic setting
  • No prior chemotherapy or HER2-targeted therapy for advanced or metastatic breast cancer or only 1 previous line of endocrine therapy in the metastatic setting. Participants who have received chemotherapy or HER2-targeted therapy in the neo-adjuvant or adjuvant setting are eligible if > 6 months from treatment to metastatic diagnosis.

  • Has protocol-defined adequate organ and bone marrow function

  • ECOG performance status 0 or 1

Exclusion Criteria
  • Ineligible for any of the agents on the study.
  • Any substance abuse or other medical conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with subject's participation or study results
  • Patients with spinal cord compression or clinically active central nervous system metastases. Participants with clinically inactive brain metastases or treated brain metastases that are no longer symptomatic may be included in the study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression Free Survival (PFS) by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) assessmentUntil progression or death, assessed up to approximately 60 months

Defined as time from date of randomisation until the date of objective radiological disease progression according to Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) using RECIST 1.1 or death by any cause.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety and tolerability of trastuzumab deruxtecan, alone or with pertuzumabAssessed up to approximately 60 months

Number of AEs according to NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0 per each treatment arm

Progression Free Survival (PFS) by Investigator assessmentUntil progression or death, assessed up to approximately 60 months

Defined as time from date of randomisation until the date of objective radiological disease progression according to Investigator using RECIST 1.1 or death by any cause.

Overall Survival (OS)Until death, assessed up to approximately 104 months

OS is defined as the time from randomisation until the date of death due to any cause.

Objective Response Rate (ORR) by BICR and Investigator assessmentUntil progression or death (in the absence of progression), assessed up to approximately 60 months

ORR is defined as The proportion of participants who have a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on BICR and investigator assessment using RECIST 1.1.

Duration of Response (DoR) by BICR and Investigator AssessmentUntil progression or death (in the absence of progression), assessed up to approximately 60 months

DoR is defined as the time from date of first detection of objective response until the date of objective radiological disease progression according to BICR and investigator assessment using RECIST 1.1 or death in the absence of progression.

Time to second progression or death (PFS2) by Investigator assessmentAssessed up to approximately 104 months

PFS2 is defined as the time from randomisation until the date of tumor progression on next-line treatment (the earliest of the progression event subsequent to first subsequent anticancer therapy after the first progression) or death from any cause; second progression will be defined according to local standard clinical practice.

To assess the effect of T-DXd ± pertuzumab relative to THP in terms of patient-reported pain in participants with HER2 positive, first-line mBC'.Assessed up to approximately 60 months

Pain progression: Time to sustained deterioration of European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30 Pain Scale. Scores range from 0-100 based on 2 items with responses ranging from 1-4. A lower score would mean better outcome.

To assess patient-reported treatment tolerabilityAssessed up to approximately 60 months

The proportion of participants with maintained or improved physical function while on treatment, based on the EORTC QLQ-C30 Physical Functioning scale. Scores range from 0-100, based on 5 items with responses ranging from 1-4. A higher score would mean a better outcome.

Serum concentration of trastuzumab deruxtecan and pertuzumabUp to Cycle 6, approximately Week 18; each cycle is 21 days

Determination of trastuzumab deruxtecan and pertuzumab concentrations in serum.

Immunogenicity of trastuzumab deruxtecan.Up to follow-up period, approximately 60 months

Number and percentage of participants who develop anti-drug antibody (ADA) for trastuzumab deruxtecan.
