NCT02593175

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well panitumumab, carboplatin and paclitaxel work in treating patients with newly diagnosed triple negative breast cancer that is limited to the breast and possibly to the nearby lymph nodes (locally advanced). This treatment study is linked to NCI-2015-00191 protocol, which uses a baseline biopsy to determine the neoadjuvant therapy that matches the sub-type of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Immunotherapy with panitumumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving panitumumab, carboplatin and paclitaxel before surgery may be an effective treatment for breast cancer by making the tumor smaller and reducing the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Residual Disease

    Residual Disease at the time of surgery, which can help predict disease recurrence and survival across all breast cancer subtypes.

    At the time of surgery

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (panitumumab, paclitaxel, carboplatin)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive panitumumab IV over 30 minutes and paclitaxel IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15. Patients also receive carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must have an intact evaluable primary tumor or biopsy proven axillary node involvement with at least 1.0 centimeter (cm) smallest dimension based on imaging after neoadjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy and prior to initiation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy under this protocol; baseline measurements and evaluations must be obtained within 4 weeks of registration to the study; all areas of disease should be recorded in order to assess response and uniformity of response to therapy
  • Triple-negative breast cancer defined as estrogen receptor (ER) \< 10%; progesterone receptor (PR) \< 10% by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) 0-1 positive (+) by IHC or 2+, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) \< 2, gene copy number \< 4
  • Patients must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
  • Patients must have received at least one dose of an anthracycline based neoadjuvant regimen; patients are eligible if therapy was discontinued due to disease progression or therapy intolerance
  • Baseline multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) or echocardiogram showing left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \>= 50% within 6 weeks prior to initiation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy
  • Serum creatinine =\< 1.5 mg/dl
  • Creatinine clearance (CrCl) \>= 50 mL/min calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault method
