Studio in pazienti affetti da tumore mammario avanzato

Data source: BASEC (Imported from 29.03.2024), WHO (Imported from 29.03.2024)

Disease category: Breast Cancer

Brief description of trial (Data source: BASEC)

La partecipazione allo studio è aperta a qualsiasi paziente di sesso femminile o maschile di età superiore a 18 anni cui è stato diagnosticato un tumore mammario avanzato HER2-positivo non operabile, che non ha risposto in misura sufficiente ai trattamenti precedenti o il cui ultimo trattamento non è stato tollerato. Parteciperanno allo studio circa 600 pazienti in circa 200 ospedali in vari Paesi del mondo. I pazienti saranno randomizzati secondo un rapporto di 2:1 a ricevere tucatinib e i trattamenti approvati (capecitabina e trastuzumab) o il placebo e i trattamenti standard sopramenzionati. Randomizzazione significa che l’assegnazione avviene aleatoriamente, come nel lancio di una monetina. La possibilità di essere assegnati a tucatinib è pari al 66,7%. Il periodo di trattamento può avere una durata variabile e dipende dalla sicurezza e dall’efficacia dei trattamenti antitumorali. I pazienti potranno partecipare allo studio finché tollerano i test, le procedure e i trattamenti della ricerca, e la malattia è stabile o in miglioramento. Prima della fase di trattamento verranno eseguite diverse valutazioni, ad es. valutazioni radiologiche, esami del sangue, storia medica, segni vitali, ECG, ecc. Dopo l’inizio del trattamento, le visite presso l’ospedale avranno luogo in cicli della durata di 21 giorni ciascuno. Per i primi 2 cicli il paziente dovrà recarsi in ospedale anche il Giorno 12. Infine, si recherà in ospedale dopo 30 giorni dal completamento o dall’interruzione del trattamento, e a cadenza trimestrale avranno luogo ulteriori contatti

Health conditions investigated(Data source: BASEC)

Pazienti con diagnosi di tumore mammario avanzato non operabile e già pretrattato, in cui il test sul tessuto tumorale ha evidenziato la presenza della proteina HER2 nelle cellule tumorali. Tucatinib è un nuovo medicamento sperimentale in fase di studio come trattamento aggiuntivo alla terapia di routine con capecitabina e trastuzumab (due trattamenti approvati) per questo tipo di tumore. Lo scopo di questo studio è valutare l’efficacia e la sicurezza del trattamento sperimentale in studio con tucatinib (altresì noto come ONT-380) in aggiunta al trattamento con le terapie antitumorali usate di routine (capecitabina e trastuzumab), rispetto al trattamento con capecitabina e trastuzumab più il placebo. Il placebo viene aggiunto ai trattamenti usati di routine per mantenere lo studio in cieco. In questo né il paziente né il medico sono a conoscenza di quale trattamento viene somministrato e nessuno è influenzato in modo positivo o negativo al momento dell’analisi dell’efficacia e della sicurezza dei due gruppi di trattamento. Un altro scopo di questo studio di ricerca è confrontare il tempo impiegato per la crescita delle cellule tumorali, in base alle valutazioni radiologiche, nei pazienti trattati con tucatinib in aggiunta ai trattamenti standard o solamente con i trattamenti standard. Tutti i pazienti riceveranno capecitabina e trastuzumab. I ricercatori sperano che l’aggiunta di tucatinib ai trattamenti standard aiuti a distruggere più efficacemente le cellule tumorali o ad arrestarne la crescita e la diffusione

Intervention investigated (e.g. drug, therapy or campaign) (Data source: BASEC)

La ragione per la quale viene condotto questo studio è confrontare la sicurezza e l’efficacia del medicamento sperimentale tucatinib, altresì noto come ONT-380, in associazione a due medicamenti approvati (capecitabina e trastuzumab) in pazienti affetti da tumore mammario avanzato HER2+, con la sicurezza e l’efficacia del placebo somministrato insieme ai due medicamenti approvati capecitabina e trastuzumab.
Il tumore mammario è la forma tumorale più comune tra le donne di tutto il mondo. In circa il 20% dei casi di tumore mammario si riscontra la sovraespressione del recettore 2 per il fattore di crescita epidermico umano (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, HER2). Nel caso dei tumori HER2+, le cellule tumorali presentano un numero anormalmente alto di recettori HER2. Inoltre, questo tipo di tumore tende a crescere e diffondersi più velocemente rispetto ai tumori negativi all’HER2. Il medicamento sperimentale tucatinib agisce sulle cellule con sovraespressione dell’HER2.

Poiché lo sviluppo di nuove terapie per il tumore mammario metastatico contenente la proteina HER2 ha portato a un prolungamento significativo della sopravvivenza media di questi pazienti, si intende testare questo medicamento sperimentale in aggiunta ai trattamenti antitumorali approvati contro le cellule del tumore mammario HER2+. L’effetto di questo trattamento aggiunto potrebbe costituire un nuovo approccio per combattere il tumore.
