Official Title: Phase III Trial of Neoadjuvant Durvalumab (NSC 778709) plus Chemotherapy versus Chemotherapy Alone for Adults with MammaPrint Ultrahigh (MP2) Hormone Receptor (HR) Positive / Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER2) Negative Stage II-III Breast Cancer.
A Study On:
Breast

Study Description

This phase III trial compares the addition of an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) to usual chemotherapy versus usual chemotherapy alone in treating patients with MammaPrint Ultrahigh (MP2) stage II-III hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. There is some evidence from previous clinical trials that people who have a MammaPrint Ultrahigh Risk result may be more likely to respond to chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Adding durvalumab to usual chemotherapy may be able to prevent the cancer from returning for patients with MP2 stage II-III hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer.

Eligibility

Please note this may not be a complete list of eligibility criteria. We have included a few examples of study criteria to help you better understand how your eligibility in the study will be determined; your study team will go through the study eligibility criteria with you to verify if you qualify for participation in this study.

Inclusion Requirements

You can participate in this study if you:

  • Participants must have histologically confirmed estrogen receptor (ER) positive and/or progesterone receptor (PR) positive (hormone receptor positive) and HER2 negative breast cancer, as per American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) College of American Pathologists (CAP) guidelines
  • Participants must have clinical stage II or III breast cancer
  • Participants must not have metastatic disease (i.e., must be clinically M0 or Mx) Systemic staging studies with imaging should follow routine practice as per National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and ASCO guidelines
  • Participants must not have locally recurrent breast cancer
  • Participants with multifocal disease or synchronous primary tumors are eligible, however, all tumors must be hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative per ASCO CAP guidelines. It is sufficient to have MP2 status on at least one of the lesions
  • Participants must have either adequate tissue available to submit on-study or a prior known MammaPrint Index Score that is MP2 status
  • Participants must not have received any prior treatment for their current breast cancer, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic or hormonal therapy, and must be candidates for doxorubicin, paclitaxel, and durvalumab therapy
  • Participants must be >= 18 years old at the time of registration
  • Participants must have a complete medical history and physical exam within 28 days prior to Step 1 Registration
  • Participants must have body weight > 30 kg
  • Participants must have Zubrod Performance Status of 0-2
  • Participants with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen are eligible for this trial
  • Participant must not have medical contraindications to receiving immunotherapy, including history of non-infectious pneumonitis that required steroids or active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment with disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs in the past two years. Replacement therapy (e.g. thyroxine for pre-existing hypothyroidism, insulin for type I diabetes mellitus, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. Intra-articular steroid injections are allowed
  • Participants must have met all eligibility criteria for Step 1 Registration
  • Participants must have MP2 MammaPrint result
  • Participants must not have received live vaccines within 28 days prior to study Step 2: Randomization. Examples of live vaccines include, but are not limited to, the following: measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox, shingles, yellow fever, rabies, Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), and typhoid (oral) vaccine. Seasonal influenza vaccines and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines are allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g. Flu-Mist) are live attenuated vaccines, and are not allowed
  • Participants must not be planning to receive any concurrent non-protocol directed chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment while receiving treatment on this study
  • Participant must have Zubrod Performance Status of 0-2
  • Participants must not have a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or evidence of active pneumonitis within two years prior to Step 2: Randomization
