About this trial

This phase II trial tests how well ARX788 works in treating patients diagnosed with HER2-low, locally advanced unresectable or metastatic breast cancer. ARX788 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that is given by infusion (diluted and injected slowly into veins). Antibodies are proteins which are naturally produced by the body's immune system to help fight infections. ARX788 consists of antibodies that have been attached to a toxin that has the potential to kill cancer cells. ARX788 sticks to a protein called human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2), which is found on some breast cancer cells. Giving ARX788 may be safe and effective in treating patients with HER2-low locally advanced unresectable metastatic breast cancer.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Objective response rate (ORR)

Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of participants who experience complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. The ORR and corresponding two-sided exact 90% confidence intervals will be reported.

Time frame
Up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes

1

Duration of response (DOR)

Duration of response (DOR) is defined as the time between the date of first response and the date of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first, will be computed for participants with a BOR of CR or PR. Medians and corresponding two-sided 95% confidence intervals will be reported.

Time frame
Up to 1 year
2

Overall Best Response (BOR)

Best overall response (BOR) is defined as the best response recorded from the start of the treatment until disease progression (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started).

Time frame
Up to 1 year
3

Disease Control Rate (DCR)

The Disease control rate (DCR) is defined as the sum of PR, CR and stable disease (SD) divided by the number of response evaluable participants All-Subjects-as-Treated(AsaT).

Time frame
Up to 1 year
4

Median Progression Free Survival (PFS)

Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time between date of first dose of study therapy and date of progression or death, whichever occurs first, will be computed for response evaluable participants (AsaT). Medians and corresponding two-sided 95% confidence intervals will be reported.

Time frame
Up to 2 years
