Study summary

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with a single arm run-in period is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sodium thiosulfate (BYON5667) eye drops to reduce ocular toxicity in cancer patients treated with the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) SYD985

Read the detailed description

This multicenter trial has a single arm run-in period followed by a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind comparative part. In the single arm part of the trial, patients with HER2-expressing locally advanced or metastatic solid tumours will be enrolled and treated with the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) SYD985 once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. All patients will receive concomitant BYON5667 eye drops. When the primary safety and efficacy analysis of the BYON5667 eye drops at Day 63 is favorable, the trial may continue to the comparative part in which patients with locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer will be treated with SYD985. Patients will be randomly assigned (1:1) to receive BYON5667 or placebo eye drops.

  1. Male or female, age ≥18 years at the time of signing first ;
  2. Patient with -confirmed, unresectable locally advanced or cancer with the following restriction:

    Single arm part: patient with solid tumours of any origin (excluding gastric tumours and adenocarcinomas of the gastroesophageal junction) who has progressed on standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy exists; Randomized part: patient with breast cancer who had either progression during or after at least two human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 ()-targeting treatment regimens for locally advanced or metastatic disease, or progression during or after [ado-]trastuzumab emtansine treatment for locally advanced or metastatic disease;

  3. HER2 tumour status as determined by a local laboratory using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or in situ hybridization (ISH):

    Single arm part: at least IHC 1+; Randomized part: IHC 3+ and/or ISH positive;

  4. (ECOG) performance status ≤ 1;
  5. Patient should refrain from wearing any kind of contact lenses during trial treatment;
  6. Adequate organ function

Main Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Current or previous use of prohibited medication as listed in the protocol
  2. History of infusion-related reactions and/or to trastuzumab containing treatment or of the trial treatments which led to permanent discontinuation of the treatment;
  3. History or presence of keratitis;
  4. (LVEF) \< 50%, or a history of decrease in LVEF during previous trastuzumab containing treatment leading to permanent discontinuation of treatment;
  5. History or presence of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organizing pneumonia (e.g. bronchiolitis obliterans), drug-induced or idiopathic pneumonitis, or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest CT scan;
  6. History or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular disease;
  7. Severe, uncontrolled systemic disease;
  8. Symptomatic , brain metastases requiring to manage symptoms, or treatment for brain metastases within 8 weeks.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(11)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

HER2

HER2 is a protein, made from the ERBB2 gene, that drives the growth of some cancers. A study may look for a level of the protein, extra copies of the gene, or a particular change in it.

In breast cancer, protein tests are read as HER2-positive, HER2-low or HER2-negative; other cancers use their own rules. Check which test result the study requires.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Brain metastases

Cancer deposits in the brain from a cancer that started elsewhere in the body (CNS metastases include the spinal cord).

Studies differ: some leave out any brain metastases, some accept ones treated and stable for some weeks. Check what this study allows.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
