Brief Title: TAK-228 and TAK-117 Followed by Cisplatin and Nab Paclitaxel for Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Official Title: Phase II Clinical Trial of Treatment With TAK-228 and TAK-117 to Inhibit Homologous Recombination (HR) Followed by Cisplatin and Nab Paclitaxel in Patients With Chemotherapy-pretreated Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Study ID: NCT03193853
Brief Summary: This study evaluates efficacy of TAK- 228 and TAK- 117 followed by cisplatin and nab paclitaxel in patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer.
Detailed Description: Seventy to eighty percent of breast cancers have a gene expression profile which is characterized by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and high proliferation. HRD leads to errors in DNA pathway \[non -homologous end joining (NHEJ)\] that repair DNA-breaks, a process required for metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) survival. The hypothesis of this pilot trial is that administration of the oral combination of TAK-228 and TAK-117 (PIKTOR) will inhibit NHEJ in metastatic TNBC, leading at the time of disease progression to metastases that are HR-deficient and sensitive to cisplatin plus nab paclitaxel therapy.
