Abstract
This phase I/II dose-escalation study investigated the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of the pan-class I phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor pilaralisib in combination with trastuzumab (Arm 1) or trastuzumab plus paclitaxel (Arm 2) in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. Patients had progressed on prior trastuzumab (Arms 1 and 2) and received prior taxane (Arm 2). The MTD of pilaralisib was determined using a 3 + 3 dose-escalation design (starting dose 200 mg once daily). Forty-two patients were enrolled (21 in each arm). Five patients had a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT; three in Arm 1 and two in Arm 2). Dose-limiting toxicities were rash (three patients) and neutropenia (two patients). The MTD of pilaralisib was determined at 400 mg once daily in both arms. The most frequently reported treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were diarrhea (23.8 % in Arm 1 vs. 66.7 % in Arm 2), fatigue (14.3 vs. 42.9 %), and rash (33.3 vs. 38.1 %). The most frequently reported treatment-related grade ≥3 AEs were erythematous rash (9.5 %) in Arm 1 and diarrhea, peripheral neuropathy, and neutropenia (14.3 % each) in Arm 2. Steady-state pilaralisib exposure was similar to previous studies with pilaralisib monotherapy. No responses occurred in Arm 1; four of 20 evaluable patients (20 %) in Arm 2 had a partial response. Observed PIK3CA mutations in cell-free circulating DNA did not correlate with response. Pilaralisib in combination with trastuzumab with or without paclitaxel had an acceptable safety profile in metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, with clinical activity in the paclitaxel arm.
