Study summary

The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (C/P) compared to placebo plus C/P in participants with a Breast Cancer Gene 1 or 2 (BRCA1; BRCA2) mutation in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) through the end of Week 24, objective response rate (ORR) and PFS on subsequent therapy (PFS2) in participants treated with veliparib in combination with C/P versus placebo in combination with C/P.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, multinational, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of veliparib in combination with C/P compared to placebo in combination with C/P in participants with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, as documented by the Sponsor core laboratory, with HER2-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer who received no more than 2 prior lines of cytotoxic therapy for metastatic disease. For the purposes of eligibility, HER2-negative status was based on the most recent tumor biopsy. Participants were randomized in a 2:1 ratio, with a total of approximately 500 participants planned to be randomized. Veliparib 120 mg/placebo twice a day (BID) was dosed Days -2 through 5 with carboplatin target area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) 6 administered on Day 1 and paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 administered weekly on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 21-day cycle.

Safety and efficacy data through the prespecified primary analysis cutoff date of 05 April 2019 are included in the interim analysis.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time to PFS is defined as the number of days from the date the participant was randomized to the date the participant experiences radiographic disease progression (as determined by the investigators), or to the date of death (all causes of mortality) if disease progression is not reached. All events of disease progression occurring on or before the Primary Analysis Cutoff date of 05 April 2019 were to be included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking study drug or had previously discontinued study drug. PFS was estimated for each treatment group using Kaplan-Meier methodology.

    Time frame: From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 05 April 2019; the median duration of follow-up was 35.5 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time to death (overall survival) is defined as the number of days from the date the participant was randomized to the date of the participant's death. All events of death which occur up to the analysis cutoff date are to be included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking study drug or after the participant discontinued study drug. If a participant has not died, the data for the participant is to be censored at the date last known to be alive or at the analysis cutoff date if that is earlier. The final analysis of OS will occur when the pre-specified number of events has occurred in the ITT population.

    Time frame: Up to 84.5 and 81.8 months for Placebo and Veliparib, respectively.

  2. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)

    The clinical benefit rate (CBR) is defined as the progression-free rate at 24 weeks (168 days), estimated using Kaplan Meier methodology. All events of disease progression in the primary progression free survival analysis database were to be included, regardless of whether the event occurred while the participant was still taking, or had previously discontinued, study drug. If the participant had not yet progressed then their data was to be censored at the date of the last evaluable disease progression assessment. Participants without post-baseline assessments were to be censored at the date of randomization.

    Time frame: Through the end of Week 24

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The objective response rate (ORR) is calculated as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) based on assessment by the investigators per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria version 1.1. All participants who had at least one measurable lesion at baseline were to be included in the ORR calculation. The final analysis of ORR will occur when the pre-specified number of Overall Survival events have occurred in the ITT population, per the fixed sequence testing procedure.

    Time frame: Approximately 8 years from randomization

  4. Progression-Free Survival on Subsequent Therapy (PFS2)

    PFS2 is defined as the number of days from the date of randomization to the time of disease progression on subsequent therapy or death from any cause. The distribution of PFS2 was to be estimated for each treatment group using Kaplan-Meier methodology. The final analysis of PFS2 will occur when the pre-specified number of Overall Survival events have occurred in the ITT population, per the fixed sequence testing procedure.

    Time frame: Approximately 8 years from randomization

Participant flow

A total of 513 subjects enrolled in the study (N=174 to the placebo + C/P arm, and N=339 to the veliparib + C/P arm). Two subjects form each arm (N= 4) were determined not to have a suspected deleterious or deleterious mutation in BRCA1/2 and were excluded from the ITT population \[ITT Population (N=509); Placebo + C/P arm (N=172), and Veliparib + C/P arm (N=337)\]. Of the 4 subjects, 3 subjects received treatment and later discontinued due to disease progression.
