Olaparib, Durvalumab, PARPi
Brief summary
This is a multicenter randomized phase ll clinical trial to evaluate the pathological complete response (pCR) in the tumour burden (primary and lymph nodes) with olaparib alone or in the olaparib and durvalumab arm in TNBC patients candidate for neoadjuvant strategy showing a t/gBRCAmut or BRCAness/HRD profile.
Detailed description
Eligible patients will be registered for central testing of BRCA mutatinal status and HRD/BRCAness profile with central review of ER, PgR, TILs and PD-L1. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to either olparib or olaparib and durvalumab (=neoadjuvant treatment) in a 1:1 ratio. The treatment duration in both arms will last 16 weeks and both treatments are considered as experimental treatments in this study. After completion of neoadjuvant systemic treatment, patients will undergo surgery and followed-up for 2 years after investigational drug discontinuation. After surgery, adjuvant treatment will be left at the investigator's decision.
Interventions
olaparib 300 mg per os BID
durvalumab 1500 mg IV Q4 weeks

Intervention model description
Eligible patients after central screening are randomized to olaparib vs olaparib and durvalumab
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
at registration: * Histologically confirmed, invasive TNBC, defined as: * ER and PR negative (not eligible for endocrine therapy) defined as immunohistochemistry (IHC) nuclear staining ≤ 10% AND * HER2 negative (not eligible for anti-HER2 therapy): * Early-stage disease, defined as cT1c-T2, N0-N1, M0 * Medically fit for a neoadjuvant strategy and for radical surgery as by the investigator's decision * No prior systemic therapy nor definitive surgery for BC * Age ≥18 years * Women and men can be included * ECOG performance status (PS) 0-1
Exclusion criteria
at registration: * Previous treatment with a PARPi * Previous treatment with an anti-PD-1/PD-L1, anti-PD-L2 or anti-CTLA-4 antibody * Evidence of macroscopic distant metastases, investigated according to local institutional guidelines * Patients who underwent sentinel node biopsy before neoadjuvant therapy * History of previous invasive BC * Bilateral and/or multifocal and/or multicentric BC * Malabsorption syndrome or other chronic condition that would significantly interfere with enteral absorption * History of allogenic transplantation of bone marrow or an organ. * History of another primary malignancy. * Myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukaemia or features suggestive of such. * Congenital long QT syndrome. * History of active primary immunodeficiency Inclusion criteria at randomization: * Deleterious germline or somatic mutation in BRCA 1 and/or BRCA 2 or homologue repair deficiency (HRD) status as determined by central testing. * Tumour tissue available from primary tumour (fine needle aspiration cytology or lymph node metastasis tissue are not acceptable). * Normal organ and bone marrow function measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment as defined below: * Haemoglobin ≥ 10.0 g/dL with no blood transfusion in the past 28 days * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L * Platelet count ≥ 100 x 109/L * AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN * Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (exception: higher bilirubin in patients with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome are allowed according to the investigator's decision) * Creatinine clearance estimated of ≥ 51 mL/min/1.73m2 using the MDRD equation * Body weight \>30 kg * Participation in translational research is mandatory * Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test in the screening period and confirmed prior to treatment on day 1. * Female patients of childbearing/reproductive potential must use adequate birth control measures, as defined by the investigator, during the study treatment period and for at least 3 months after the last dose of treatment. A highly effective method of birth control is defined as a method which results in a low failure rate (i.e., less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly. Such methods include: * Intrauterine device (IUD) * Intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS) * Bilateral tubal occlusion * Vasectomized partner * Sexual abstinence (the reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical trial and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient) * Male patients must use a condom during treatment and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment when having sexual intercourse with a pregnant woman or with a woman of childbearing potential. Female partners of male patients should also use a highly effective form of contraception (see above) if they are of childbearing potential. * Female subjects who are breast feeding must discontinue nursing prior to the first dose of study treatment and until 3 months after the last study treatment. * Registration to a National Health Care System
