TPS1127 Background: Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone which is necessary for proper folding and stabilization of proteins. Client proteins of HSP90 include many oncogenic proteins known to be over-activated in triple negative breast cancer such as AKT, EGFR, members of RAS/MAPK signaling pathway and androgen receptor. High expression of HSP90 in breast cancer has been associated with poor outcome. In addition, over-expression of HSP90 client proteins such as AKT and c-RAF has been implicated in paclitaxel resistance. Onalespib (AT13387) is a synthetic non-ansamycin small molecule that acts as an inhibitor of HSP90 by binding to the amino terminal of the protein and has dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.71 nM. Methods: Patients with inoperable or metastatic, triple negative or < 10% hormone receptor positive breast cancer are treated with onalespib and paclitaxel on days 1, 8, 15 every 28 days. Paclitaxel is given at a standard dose of 80 mg/m2 while the dose of onalespib is gradually increased using standard 3+3 design (see table). In order to assess the effect of each drug on pharmacokinetics of the other drug, onalespib is given on day -7 prior to cycle 1 and skipped on day 1 of cycle 1 during which paclitaxel is administered alone. The primary objective of the study is to determine recommended phase II dose and assess the toxicity profile of the combination. The secondary objectives include pharmacokinetic of each agent. Overall response rate, response duration and progression-free survival will also be assessed. The study is currently enrolling patients to dose level 2. Clinical trial information: NCT02474173.

BackgroundNeoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with taxanes is the standard of care in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Intratumoral prevalence of CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) is associated with an improvement in relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), while regulatory T-cells (Treg) and myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are associated with poor survival. Higher ratio of CTL/Treg is associated with higher probability of obtaining pathological complete response (pCR), a surrogate marker for RFS. Intratumoral production of CCL5, CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 is critical for local infiltration with CTLs, while CCL22 is responsible for Treg attraction. Previous studies have shown that CXCL9 expression in the pre-treatment breast tissue is associated with a three-fold higher rate of achieving pCR. Our preclinical data show that Chemokine modulating (CKM) regimen, combining rintatolimod (TLR3 agonist), interferon (IFN)-α2b, and celecoxib (COX-2 inhibitor) increases CTL-attracting, and decreases MDSC-, Treg-favoring chemokines, increasing CTL/Treg ratio in tumor microenvironment, with preferential tumor tissue activation than adjacent healthy tissues. We hypothesize that the combination of CKM with paclitaxel will result in infiltration of TNBC with CTLs, and along with doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC), result in higher pCR, translating into improved RFS and OS.MethodsIn this phase I study NCT04081389, eligibility includes age ≥18 years, confirmed resectable TNBC, radiographically measurable disease ≥1 cm, ECOG PS ≤ 2, adequate organ and marrow function. Patients with autoimmune disease, serious mood disorders, invasive carcinoma within 3 years, history of peptic ulcers or hypersensitivity to NSAIDs will be excluded. We plan to treat three patients with early stage TNBC with paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 IV weekly for 12 weeks, rintatolimod 200 mg IV, celecoxib 200 mg oral twice daily, and accelerated titration of IFN-α2b at doses 0, 5, or 10 million units (MU)/m2 [Dose Levels (DL) 1, 2 and 3 respectively] on days 1–3 (no intra-patient dose escalation) in weeks 1–3. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as grade 3 or higher toxicities within the first 3 weeks. Any DLT will mandate recruitment per the 3+3 model. If no DLT, three patients will be enrolled at DL 4 at 20 MU/m2 IFN- α2b. This will be followed by standard dose-dense AC, and then surgery. The primary endpoint is safety and tolerability of combination and to identify the appropriate DL of CKM and paclitaxel for extended efficacy study. The secondary endpoints include investigation of efficacy (pCR and breast MRI response), along with RFS and OS. Intratumoral biomarkers will be analyzed in an exploratory manner.ResultsN/AConclusionsN/ATrial RegistrationNCT04081389Ethics ApprovalThe study was approved by Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center Institution’s Ethics Board, approval number I-73718.
