Capecitabine, Tucatinib, and Intrathecal Trastuzumab for Breast Cancer Patients With Leptomeningeal Disease

Study Purpose

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of tucatinib and capecitabine in combination with intrathecal trastuzumab on overall survival rate at 12 months in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with proven leptomeningeal evolution and requiring intrathecal therapy.

Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Adequate hematological function within 14 days before inclusion: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 x 10⁹/L; platelets count ≥100 x 10⁹/L; and hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL; 11. Adequate liver function within 14 days before inclusion: total bilirubin ≤1.5 ULN (unless documented Gilbert's syndrome); AST and ALT ≤2.5 ULN (≤5 ULN in the presence of liver metastases); 12. Normal renal function within 14 days before inclusion: estimated creatinine clearance ≥60 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula; 13. Adequate cardiac function:
  • - 12 Lead electrocardiograms (ECG) with normal tracing or non-clinically significant changes that do not require medical intervention.
  • - QT/QTc interval ≤470 msec for woman and ≤450 msec for men (mean of replicate values, correction per institutional standard) on the ECG at the screening visit and a normal kaliemia.
  • - Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥55% - No history of Torsades de Pointes or other symptomatic QTc abnormality.
14. Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior anti-cancer therapy or surgical procedures to National cancer institute-Common terminology criteria for adverse events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0 grade 1 or 0 to baseline (except alopecia or other toxicities not considered a safety risk for the patient at investigator's discretion); 15. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (blood or urine test) within 14 days prior to inclusion; 16. Woman of childbearing potential and male patients must agree to use adequate contraception for the duration of trial participation and up to 7 months after completing treatment/therapy. Hormonal contraceptives such as birth control pills, patches, implants, or injections are not allowed in patients who are hormone receptor positive; 17. Patients affiliated to the social security system (or equivalent); 18. Patient must be willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the trial including scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and examinations including follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Used of a strong cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C8 inhibitor within 5 half-lives of the inhibitor, or use of a strong CYP3A4 or CYP2C8 inducer within 5 days prior to first dose of study treatment. Use of sensitive CYP3A substrates should be avoided one week before enrollment and during study treatment; 2. Previous treatment with Tucatinib or Capecitabine; 3. Severe leukopenia, neutropenia, or thrombocytopena, severe hepatic impairment, severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance below 30mL/min) 4. Recent or concomitant treatment with brivudine ; 5. Any antiplatelet or curative anticoagulant treatment for blood coagulation disorders; 6.

Known prior severe hypersensitivity to capecitabine or to any of the excipients or fluorouracil; 17. Known complete dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency (if applicable); 18. Inability to swallow tablets or significant gastrointestinal disease which would preclude the adequate oral absorption of medications; 19. Prior history of other malignancies other than study disease (except for basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix) unless the patient has been free of the disease for at least 5 years; 20. Person deprived of their liberty or under protective custody or guardianship; 21. Participation in another therapeutic trial within the 30 days prior to treatment initiation; 22.

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05800275
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
