A Phase I/II Trial of Temsirolimus Plus Neratinib for Patients With Metastatic HER2-Amplified or Triple Negative Breast Cancer
This is an open-label, single arm, multi-center, multi-national, adaptive design,
dose-escalation Phase 1/2 study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of temsirolimus
with daily neratinib, and to determine the safety and efficacy of this combination when given
to patients with advanced breast carcinoma, specifically trastuzumab-refractory
HER2-amplified disease or triple-negative disease.
dose-escalation Phase 1/2 study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of temsirolimus
with daily neratinib, and to determine the safety and efficacy of this combination when given
to patients with advanced breast carcinoma, specifically trastuzumab-refractory
HER2-amplified disease or triple-negative disease.
Phase I Design A standard, 3+3, dose escalation schedule to determine the MTD of temsirolimus
in combination with neratinib with no intrapatient dose escalation and a starting dose of
temsirolimus 8 mg administered intravenously (IV) weekly (dose level 1) and three patients
enrolled in each cohort.
Phase II Design The phase II portion of this trial is comprised of three cohorts. Two of the
cohorts utilized a Simon two-stage design to determine the sample size to assess the efficacy
of temsirolimus when administered in combination with neratinib: HER2-amplified and triple
negative breast cancer. The third cohort was a single stage design with HER2-amplified
patients and dose escalation.

setting with evidence of progression. Washout period for trastuzumab of 14 days.

stage disease. No restriction for prior hormonal therapy. No concurrent use of
endocrine therapy is permitted.
Inclusion Criteria for all subjects (HER2-Amplified and Triple-negative)
- Patients with a diagnosis of invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast confirmed by
histology or cytology at MSKCC.
- Metastatic disease that is or has been pathologically documented.
- At least one measurable metastatic lesion according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Ascites,
pleural effusions, and bone metastases are not considered measurable. Minimum
indicator lesion size ≥ 10 mm by helical CT or ≥ 20 mm by conventional techniques.
- Pathological nodes must be ≥ 15 mm by the short axis to be considered measurable.
- Age ≥ 18, as no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of
neratinib or temsirolimus in patients <18 years of age, children are excluded from
this study.
- Patients must be willing to discontinue sex hormonal therapy, e.g., birth control
pills, hormonal replacement therapy, prior to enrollment. Women of childbearing
potential must consent to effective contraception while on treatment and for a period
thereafter.
