A Phase 1b/2 Open-Label Study of Samuraciclib in Combination with Elacestrant in Participants with Metastatic or Locally Advanced Hormone-Receptor-Positive and Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2-Negative Breast Cancer
This research study is about testing a new combination of two drugs, samuraciclib and elacestrant, for people with breast cancer that has spread or is locally advanced. This type of breast cancer is hormone-sensitive and does not have too much of a protein called HER2. The study has two main parts. The first part aims to find the safest and most effective dose for these two drugs when used together. The second part will then use this dose to further check how well the drugs work to shrink or control the cancer and how safe they are for patients. The overall goal is to find better treatment options for this specific type of breast cancer.
A colpo d'occhio
Di cosa tratta questo studio?
This study is looking into a new treatment approach for a specific type of breast cancer. This is breast cancer that is considered 'hormone-receptor-positive' (meaning its growth is fueled by hormones) and 'HER2-negative' (meaning it doesn't have a lot of a protein called HER2). This type of cancer has either spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or is advanced in the area where it started.
The researchers are testing a combination of two medicines: samuraciclib and elacestrant (which is also known by the brand name ORSERDU). They want to see if using these two drugs together is more effective than current treatments. The study is divided into two main stages. The first stage, called Phase 1b, is about finding the right dose for the combination of these two drugs. This involves carefully increasing the dose to see what is safe and well-tolerated by patients, and identifying any side effects.
Once the best dose is found, the study moves into Phase 2. In this stage, more people will receive the drug combination at the selected dose. The main goal of this second stage is to see how long patients live without their cancer getting worse (this is called 'progression-free survival'). They will also carefully watch for any side effects and see how the cancer responds to the treatment.
Punti chiave
- Tests a new combination of two drugs for a specific type of advanced breast cancer.
- Aims to find the safest and most effective dose.
- Will assess how long the treatment controls the cancer.
- Includes monitoring for side effects and how cancer responds.
- Open to adults aged 18 or older, both men and women.
- Might offer access to a new treatment approach.
Chi può essere idoneo?
To be able to take part in this study, you must be an adult aged 18 years or older. Both men and women can participate.
You would need to have been diagnosed with breast cancer that is hormone-receptor-positive and HER2-negative. This means your cancer is driven by hormones, but doesn't have high levels of the HER2 protein. The cancer also needs to be advanced, either having spread to other parts of your body (metastatic) or being locally advanced, meaning it has grown significantly in the area where it started.
There will be other specific health requirements and medical tests that you would need to meet to ensure the study is safe and appropriate for you. Your doctor will be able to discuss these in more detail.
Questo studio potrebbe fare al caso tuo?
Rispondi a queste domande rapide per vedere se potresti essere idoneo. Questo è solo una guida — il team di ricerca prende la decisione finale.
- Hai 18 anni o più?
- Do you have hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer?
- Has your breast cancer spread or is it locally advanced?
- Are you comfortable taking medication in tablet form?
- Are you willing to attend regular hospital visits for check-ups and tests?
Cosa comporta la partecipazione?
Taking part in this study would involve regular visits to the clinic for assessments. These visits would include check-ups, blood tests, and scans to monitor your health and how the treatment is working. You would be given the study medications, samuraciclib and elacestrant, which are film-coated tablets, to take as prescribed.
The initial part of the study (Phase 1b) focuses on finding the right dose, so your dose might be adjusted during this stage. In the second part (Phase 2), you would continue taking the medications at the chosen dose. The study will track how long it takes before your cancer shows signs of worsening or if new problems arise. Your health and any side effects will be closely monitored throughout your time in the study.
The total duration of your participation would depend on how long the treatment works for you and how you tolerate it. There will be follow-up appointments even after you stop taking the study medication to continue monitoring your health.
