Study summary

Phase I: Characterize safety and tolerability of GVV858 as a single agent and in combination with fulvestrant or letrozole. Identify dose range for optimization/recommended dose for further clinical evaluation.

Phase II: Further characterize the safety and tolerability of GVV858 in combination with fulvestrant in patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) advanced breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a first-in-human, open-label, phase I/II, multi-center study consisting of a GVV858 single agent treatment arm in patients with advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer, other advanced solid tumors harboring CCNE1 amplification, and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and a combination treatment arm of GVV858 with fulvestrant or letrozole in patients with advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer. Single agent escalation may be followed by an expansion part stratified by disease indication. The escalation of the fulvestrant combination arm may continue into a randomized, open label, Phase II with optional dose optimization in advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer patients.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Phase I: Incidence and severity of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    Number of participants with DLTs. A DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 3 or higher, unless clearly and inconvertibly assessed as due to disease progression, inter-current illness/injury, concomitant medications, or extraneous causes, that occurs within the first 28 days of treatment in the Phase 1 part. Other clinically significant toxicities may be considered to be DLTs, even if not CTCAE grade 3 or higher.

    Time frame: 28 days

  2. Phase I and phase II: Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Number of participants with AEs and SAEs, including changes in vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs) and laboratory values qualifying and reported as AEs.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years

  3. Phase I and phase II: Frequency of dose interruptions, reductions and discontinuations

    Number of participants with dose adjustments (reductions, interruption, or permanent discontinuation) as a measure of tolerability.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years

  4. Phase I and phase II: Dose intensity

    The dose intensity of each study drug is computed as the ratio of actual cumulative dose received and actual duration of exposure.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years

Secondary outcomes

PFS per RECIST 1.1 is defined as the time from the date of start of study treatment (phase I) or the date of randomization (Phase II) to the date of the first documented progression or death due to any cause.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years
