ABSTRACT
Background:
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone required for stabilization of client proteins over-activated in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Over-expression of HSP90 client proteins has been implicated in paclitaxel resistance. Onalespib (AT13387) is a potent inhibitor of HSP90 that could improve paclitaxel efficacy when administered in combination.Design:
This phase Ib trial administered onalespib with paclitaxel in patients with advanced TNBC to assess safety and establish a recommended phase II dose (RP2D).Objectives:
The primary objectives were determining the dose-limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated dose of combination therapy. Secondary objectives included pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis and determination of overall response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), and progression-free survival (PFS).Methods:
Patients with advanced TNBC were treated with standard dose intravenous paclitaxel in combination with intravenous onalespib at doses ranging from 120 to 260 mg/m2 administered on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle using a standard 3 + 3 design. A total of 15 patients were enrolled to dose expansion cohort at RP2D to confirm safety profile.Results:
Thirty-one patients were enrolled in the study, of which over 90% had received prior taxane therapy. Paclitaxel was given for metastatic disease in 23% of patients. Adverse events (AEs) included anemia (grade 3 20%), lymphopenia (grade 3 17%), and neutropenia (grade 3 33%, grade 4 4%). The most frequent grade ⩾3 non-hematologic AE was diarrhea (7%). The established RP2D was 260 mg/m2 onalespib when given with paclitaxel at 80 mg/m2. PK analysis revealed a modest drug interaction profile for onalespib in the combination regimen. ORR was 20%. Three patients achieved complete responses, all of whom had received prior taxane therapy. Median DOR was 5.6 months; median PFS was 2.9 months.Conclusion:
Combination treatment with onalespib and paclitaxel had an acceptable toxicity profile and RP2D was determined to be 260 mg/m2 of onalespib. Combination therapy showed antitumor activity in patients with advanced TNBC.

Phase 1b study of HSP90 inhibitor called onalespib in combination with paclitaxel in patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer This Phase 1b study demonstrated that treatment with a combination of onalespib and paclitaxel was reasonably well tolerated by most patients. Onalespib at 260 mg/m2 given intravenously on days 1, 8 and 15 on 28-day cycles in combination with standard dose and schedule of paclitaxel was established as the recommended phase 2 dose for further clinical development. Despite minor drug-drug interactions between these 2 agents, onalespib did not alter paclitaxel exposure and paclitaxel did not affect exposure to onalespib. While onalespib with paclitaxel combination therapy did not yield durable objective responses or prolonged progression-free survival, there were several patients with long-lasting benefit from this combination including patients who previously experienced progression on taxane therapy.
