A Phase III Randomised Study to Evaluate Dato-DXd and Durvalumab for Neoadjuvant/Adjuvant Treatment of Triple-Negative or Hormone Receptor-low/HER2-negative Breast Cancer

This is a Phase III, 2-arm, randomised, open-label, multicentre, global study assessing the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Dato-DXd plus durvalumab followed by adjuvant durvalumab with or without chemotherapy compared with neoadjuvant pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated TNBC or hormone receptor-low/HER2-negative breast cancer.

About this study

The primary objectives of the study are to demonstrate superiority of neoadjuvant Dato-DXd plus durvalumab followed by adjuvant durvalumab with or without chemotherapy relative to neoadjuvant pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated TNBC or hormone receptor-low/HER2-negative breast cancer, by investigator assessment of EFS.

Primary outcomes

  1. Event-free survival (EFS) in the experimental vs control arms

    Time frame: Date of randomization to date of the EFS event, up to 93 months after the first subject randomized

    EFS is defined as the time from the date of randomisation until the date of the first occurrence of any of the following events: disease progression precluding surgery, disease recurrence (local, regional, distant, or contralateral), second primary invasive cancer (other than squamous or basal cell skin cancer), or relapse from prior malignancy, or death by any cause (in the absence of recurrence). Non-invasive breast cancers and positive margins in the surgical sample do not count as an event for EFS. EFS will be determined by the investigator based on all available clinical assessments.

    The analysis will include all randomised participants, as randomised, regardless of whether the participant withdraws from randomised therapy or receives another anticancer therapy.

    The measure of interest will be the Hazard Ratio of EFS.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) in the experimental vs control arms

    Time frame: At the time of definitive surgery

    pCR rate is defined as the proportion of participants who have no evidence by haematoxylin and eosin staining of residual invasive disease or lymphovascular invasion at the time of definitive surgery in the complete resected breast specimen and all sampled regional lymph nodes (ypT0/Tis ypN0) by blinded central evaluation.

    The analysis will include all randomised participants, as randomised, regardless of whether the participant withdraws from randomised therapy or receives another anticancer therapy.

    The measure of interest will be the difference between the pCR rates.

  2. Overall Survival (OS) in the experimental vs control arms

    Time frame: Date of randomization to date of death due to any cause, up to 108 months after the first subject randomized

    Key Secondary - OS is defined as the time from the date of randomisation until the date of death due to any cause.

    The analysis will include all randomised participants, as randomised, regardless of whether the participant withdraws from randomised therapy or receives another anticancer therapy.

    The measure of interest will be the Hazard Ratio of OS.

  3. Distant disease-free survival (DDFS) in the experimental vs control arms

    Time frame: Date of randomization to date of the DDFS event, up to 93 months after the first subject randomized

    DDFS is defined as the time from the date of randomisation until the date of the first occurrence of any of the following events: distant metastasis, occurrence of second primary invasive cancer (other than squamous or basal cell skin cancer), relapse from prior malignancy or death by any cause (in the absence of recurrence). DDFS will be determined by the investigator based on all available clinical assessments.

    The analysis will include all randomised participants, as randomised, regardless of whether the participant withdraws from randomised therapy or receives another anticancer therapy.

    The measure of interest will be the Hazard Ratio of DDFS.

  4. Participant-reported breast and arm symptoms in the experimental vs. control arms

    Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 of neoadjuvant treatment until pre-surgery safety FU visit (for approximately 24 weeks) or EOT - whichever occurs first.

    Breast and arm symptoms measured by the EORTC IL116. The analysis will include all randomised participants, as randomised, regardless of whether the participant withdraws from randomised therapy or receives another anticancer therapy.

    The measure of interest is the mean between-arm difference in breast and arm symptom scores.

  5. Participant-reported physical function in the experimental vs. control arms

    Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 of neoadjuvant treatment until pre-surgery safety FU visit (for approximately 24 weeks) or EOT - whichever occurs first, and then from Cycle 1 Day 1 of adjuvant treatment until EOT (for approximately 27 weeks).

    Physical function measured by the PROMIS Physical Function Short Form 8c. The analysis will include all dosed participants. The measure of interest is the mean between-arm difference in physical function scores.

  6. Participant-reported fatigue in the experimental vs. control arms

    Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 of neoadjuvant treatment until pre-surgery safety FU visit (for approximately 24 weeks) or EOT - whichever occurs first, and then from Cycle 1 Day 1 of adjuvant treatment until EOT (for approximately 27 weeks).

    Fatigue measured by the PROMIS Fatigue Short Form 7a. The analysis will include all dosed participants. The measure of interest will be the difference on the proportions of participants reporting different levels of fatigue and mean between-arm difference in the fatigue scores.

  7. Participant-reported Global health status/Quality of life (GHS/QoL)in the experimental vs. control arms

    Time frame: From Cycle 1 Day 1 of neoadjuvant treatment until pre-surgery safety FU visit (for approximately 24 weeks) or EOT - whichever occurs first, and then from Cycle 1 Day 1 of adjuvant treatment until EOT (for approximately 27 weeks).

    Global health status/Quality of life measured by EORTC IL172. The analysis will include all randomised participants, as randomised, regardless of whether the participant withdraws from randomised therapy or receives another anticancer therapy.

    The measure of interest is the mean between-arm difference in GHS/QoL scores.

    Time frame: Day 1 of cycles 1,2,4,8 (Each cycle is 21 days) and at pre-surgery safety follow up visit

  9. Pharmacokinetics of Dato-DXd (in combination with durvalumab)

  10. Pharmacokinetics of Dato-DXd (in combination with durvalumab)

    Time frame: Day 1 of cycles 1,2,4,8 (Each cycle is 21 days) and at pre-surgery safety follow up visit

    Plasma concentrations of DXd (MAAA-1181a) (ng/ml)

  11. Immunogenicity of Dato-DXd (in combination with durvalumab)

    Time frame: Day 1 of cycles 1,2,4,8 (Each cycle is 21 days) and at pre-surgery safety follow up visit

    Presence of antidrug antibodies (ADAs) for Dato-DXd (confirmatory results: positive or negative, titres).

  12. Safety of Dato-DXd (in combination with durvalumab)

    Time frame: Randomization to final safety follow-up visit, either 90 days after last dose of study intervention for those who complete planned study intervention or 90 days after date of discontinuation for those who discontinue study intervention prematurely

    Safety and tolerability will be evaluated in terms of AEs graded by CTCAE version 5.0
