Breast Cancer Female
Conditions
Brief summary
Primary Objective: \- to assess the pathological Complete Response (pCR) rate in the breast of patients treated in following combinations: SAR240550 twice-weekly + weekly paclitaxel, SAR240550 weekly+ weekly paclitaxel, and weekly paclitaxel single agent as calibrator. Secondary objectives are: * pCR rate in the breast and axilla, * Radiological/clinical objective response rate (ORR), breast conservation rate, disease free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS), in each treatment arm, * Safety profiles of study combinations and of the single agent reference treatment, * Molecular characteristics of the tumor tissue and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and any correlation between the biological activity of the study treatment and the disease outcome. Based on data generated by BiPar/Sanofi, it is concluded that iniparib does not possess characteristics typical of the PARP inhibitor class. The exact mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated, however based on experiments on tumor cells performed in the laboratory, iniparib is a novel investigational anti-cancer agent that induces gamma-H2AX (a marker of DNA damage) in tumor cell lines, induces cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase in tumor cell lines, and potentiates the cell cycle effects of DNA damaging modalities in tumor cell lines. Investigations into potential targets of iniparib and its metabolites are ongoing.
Detailed description
Active study treatment will be given either as twice weekly administration (Day 1 and Day 4) or as weekly administration (Day 1) for a maximum of 24 infusions for Arm A and for a maximum of 12 infusions for Arm B. In all study arms, treatment will be given until definitive surgery, the first sign of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of patient consent. Definitive surgery will be performed within 2 to 4 weeks after the last dose of study treatment. Patients who complete all the study treatment or who withdraw consent or experience intolerable toxicity will undergo surgery according to local practices. The cut-off date for the primary analyses will be 30 days after the last study treatment administration or the date of the definitive surgery, whichever comes last. The maximum follow up for each individual patient will be until death or 5 years after the definitive surgery date whatever happens first.

Inclusion criteria
* Histologically confirmed Stage II-IIIA invasive breast cancer eligible for definitive surgery and Estrogen Receptor (ER)-negative, Progesterone receptor (PgR)-negative and Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) non-overexpressing by Immunohistochemistry (IHC) (0+, 1+) or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH negative, ratio \<1.8) or IHC (2+, 3+) /FISH-negative. * The primary tumor must be \> 2cm in diameter measured by physical examination and mammography (mandatory) plus either echography or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1 * Adequate bone marrow reserve * Adequate liver and renal function. * Age \> or = 18 years
Exclusion criteria
* Any prior treatment for primary breast cancer. * Bilateral or multicentric breast cancer. * Other primary tumors within the previous 5 years, except for adequately controlled limited basal cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix. * Pre-existing peripheral neuropathy grade \> or = 2 as per National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Event (NCI CTCAE) at randomization. * Any history of medical (e.g., cardiovascular, uncontrolled pulmonary, renal, or hepatic dysfunction, uncontrolled infection) or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that, in the opinion of the investigator, may increase the risks associated with the study participation or administration of the investigational products, or that may interfere with the interpretation of the results * Pregnancy or breastfeeding women. * Women of childbearing potential (\<2 years after the last menstruation) not using effective, non-hormonal means of contraception during the study and for a period of 6 months following the last administration of study drug. * Requirement for radiation therapy concurrent with study anticancer treatment. Patients who require breast or chest wall radiation therapy after surgery are eligible. * Known hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or excipients The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
