Phase 1b clinical trial of ado-trastuzumab emtansine and ribociclib for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Patients with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer are often treated with a multitude of therapies in the metastatic setting, and additional strategies to prolong responses to anti-HER2 therapies are needed. Preclinical evidence suggests synergy between cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK 4/6) inhibitors and anti-HER2 therapies. We conducted a phase 1b study of ribociclib and ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in patients with advanced/metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer previously treated with trastuzumab and a taxane in any setting, with four or fewer prior lines of therapy in the metastatic setting. A standard 3 + 3 dose-escalation design was used to evaluate various doses of ribociclib in combination with T-DM1, starting at 300 mg. The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolera
