A Phase 1 Multi-Center Trial of Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab in Combination With Tocilizumab in Subjects With Metastatic HER2 Positive Breast Cancer Resistant to Trastuzumab

The goal in this Phase 1 dose-escalation trial of the anti-IL-6R monoclonal antibody
tocilizumab in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab in subjects with metastatic HER2
positive breast cancer is to determine the safety, tolerability and recommended Phase 2 dose
of tocilizumab given with trastuzumab and pertuzumab every 3 weeks.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Women or men with histologically confirmed breast cancer that overexpresses HER2
(defined by ASCO-CAP 2013 guidelines performed using FDA-approved tests by
laboratories with demonstrated proficiency) that is metastatic or unresectable

- Subjects must have received trastuzumab in the metastatic setting and experienced
disease progression on this drug.

- Any number of prior therapies is permitted. Prior therapy with other HER2 targeted
agents (TDM-1, pertuzumab, lapatinib) is allowed.

- The last dose of chemotherapy must have occurred ≥3 weeks prior to study registration.

- The last radiation therapy must have occurred ≥3 weeks prior to study registration.

- Age≥ 18 years

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of 0 or 1 (An attempt to
quantify cancer patients' general well-being and activities of daily life. The score
ranges from 0 to 5 where 0 is asymptomatic and 5 is death.)

- Measurable and/or non-measureable disease by RECIST criteria must be present.

- Adequate organ and bone marrow function

- Subjects with treated brain metastases are eligible provided the metastases are
clinically stable and greater than 8 weeks has elapsed from time of treatment and date
of initiation of study drug.

- Males and females of reproductive potential must use two forms of effective
contraception during the duration of the trial and for minimum of 7 months after last
dose of tocilizumab, trastuzumab, or pertuzumab.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Intolerance to previous trastuzumab or pertuzumab therapy

- Previous treatment with tocilizumab or other cytokine-targeted biologic disease
modifying antirheumatic drugs (including adalimumab, certolizumab, etanercept,
golimumab, infliximab, anakinra) within 3 months of enrollment

- Participation in other investigational studies concurrently if these therapies include
a therapeutic intervention

- Treatment with any investigational agent within 30 days (or 5 serum half-lives of the
investigational drug, whichever is longer) of enrollment

- Concurrent second malignancy or history of HER2 negative breast cancer within five
years

- Comorbidity or intercurrent illness

- Major surgery within 8 weeks or planned major surgery during study and up to 6 months
after discontinuation of study drug

- Left ventricular systolic dysfunction, defined as ejection fraction below
institutional normal by echocardiography or MUGA (multigated acquisition scan);
current or past clinical diagnosis of congestive heart failure; history of ejection
fraction decreased to below institutional normal or desease of greater than 15%
attributable to past trastuzumab or pertuzumab therapy

- Evidence of current serious uncontrolled concomitant cardiovascular, nervous system,
pulmonary (including obstructive pulmonary disease), renal, hepatic, endocrine
(include uncontrolled diabetes mellitus) or gastrointestinal disease.

- History of diverticulitis, diverticulosis requiring antibiotic treatment or chronic
ulcerative lower GI (gastrointestinal) disease such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative
colitis or other symptomatic lower GI conditions that might predispose to perforations

- Infections as detailed in the protocol

- Immunization with a live/attenuated vaccine within 30 days of enrollment

- Primary or secondary immunodeficiency (history of or currently active) unless related
to primary disease under investigation

- Pre-existing CNS (Central Nervous System) demyelination or seizure disorders

- Any medical or psychological condition that in the opinion of the principal
investigator would interfere with safe completion of the trial

- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
