Testing the Use of Neratinib or the Combination of Neratinib and Palbociclib Targeted Treatment for HER2+ Solid Tumors (A ComboMATCH Treatment Trial)

What this study is about

This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial compares the effect of neratinib to the combination of neratinib and palbociclib in treating patients with HER2 positive solid tumors. Neratinib and palbociclib are in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply.

View original scientific description

This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial compares the effect of neratinib to the combination of neratinib and palbociclib in treating patients with HER2 positive solid tumors. Neratinib and palbociclib are in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells.

Primary outcome measures

Progression free survival

Time frame: From study entry to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first, or date of last contact if neither progression nor death has occurred, assessed up to 2 years

The stratified log-rank statistic will be used to draw inferences about the relative activity of the two regimens. Characterized by medians and Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient must have enrolled onto EAY191 and must have been given a treatment assignment to ComboMATCH to EAY191-N5 based on the presence of an actionable mutation as defined in EAY191
  • Patients must have a HER2 amplified solid tumor except breast cancer.
  • If IHC is 0 or 1+, patient (pt) is NOT ELIGIBLE regardless of in situ hybridization (ISH)/FISH or next generation sequencing (NGS) status
  • If IHC is 3+, pt IS ELIGIBLE regardless of ISH/FISH or NGS status
  • If IHC is 2+, ISH/FISH OR NGS must be positive for the patient to be ELIGIBLE. Otherwise, pt is NOT ELIGIBLE
  • If IHC is unknown and…
  • ISH/FISH is positive, independent of NGS results, the patient IS ELIGIBLE
  • ISH/FISH is negative and NGS positive with ≥ 7 copies, the patient IS ELIGIBLE
  • Patients must have recurrent or persistent disease
  • No known evidence of RB1 loss or deletion including copy number loss or deleterious mutation
  • Patients must have disease that can be safely biopsied and agree to a pre-treatment biopsy or, if disease cannot be safely biopsied, have archival tissue available from within 12 months prior to the date of registration on the ComboMATCH Registration Trial (EAY191)
  • Patients must have measurable disease based on RECIST 1.1. A second measurable lesion outside of the biopsiable lesion is required
  • Patients with treated brain metastases are eligible if follow up brain imaging after central nervous system (CNS) directed therapy shows no evidence of progression for 3 months or more and patient is not on steroids and is asymptomatic
  • No known leptomeningeal disease
  • Patients may have received up to 5 prior lines of systemic therapy
  • Prior therapy with trastuzumab or pertuzumab, either alone or in combination, antibody drug conjugates (ADC) such as DS8201a or T-DM1 is allowed
  • No prior therapy with HER2 targeting tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) such as neratinib or tucatinib
  • No prior therapy with CDK4/6 inhibition
  • No cancer directed therapy within 3 weeks prior to registration. For oral therapy, the washout can be reduced to greater than or equal to 5 half lives of the drug. No HER2 targeting ADCs within 30 days prior to registration
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of ≤ 2
  • Not pregnant and not nursing
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500 cells/mm\^3
  • Platelets ≥ 100,000 cells/mm\^3
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dl (Note: The use of transfusion or other intervention to achieve hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9 g/dl is acceptable)
  • Creatinine clearance (CrCL) of ≥ 30 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula
  • Total bilirubin level ≤ 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (patients with known Gilbert's disease who have bilirubin level ≤ 3 x institutional ULN may be enrolled)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 3 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Patients with known history or current symptoms of cardiac disease, or history of treatment with cardiotoxic agents, should have a clinical risk assessment of cardiac function using the New York Heart Association Functional Classification. To be eligible for this trial, patients should be class 2B or better
  • No active infection requiring parenteral antibiotics
  • No current evidence of intra-abdominal abscess, abdominal/pelvic fistula (not diverted), gastrointestinal perforation, gastrointestinal (GI) obstruction, and/or need for drainage nasogastric or gastrostomy tube
  • No current evidence of malabsorption or chronic diarrhea or any other significant gastro-intestinal disease (e.g gastrectomy, ileal bypass, Crohn's disease, gastroparesis), associated with moderate to severe diarrhea (grade 2 or more) or inability to tolerate oral therapy
  • No lung disease causing dyspnea at rest
  • No interstitial lung disease with ongoing signs and symptoms at the time of registration
  • No history of allergic reaction to the study agents, compound of similar chemical or biologic composition of the study agents or any of their excipients

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
