Brief Summary:

This study is being done to see if tucatinib works better than placebo when given with other drugs to treat participants with HER2-positive breast cancer. A placebo is a pill that looks the same as tucatinib but has no medicine in it. This study will also test what side effects happen when participants take this combination of drugs. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating your disease.

Participants will have cancer that has spread in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic).

In this study, all participants will get either tucatinib or placebo. Participants will be assigned randomly to a group. This is a blinded study, so patients and their doctors will not know which group a participant is in.

All participants will also get trastuzumab and pertuzumab. These are 2 drugs used to treat this type of cancer.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
HER2 Positive Breast Cancer Drug: Tucatinib Drug: Trastuzumab Drug: Pertuzumab Drug: Combination product: Trastuzumab + Pertuzumab Drug: Placebo Phase 3

Detailed Description:

Control arm: Placebo given orally twice daily plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab every 21 days

Experimental arm: Tucatinib 300 mg given orally twice daily plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab every 21 days

Trastuzumab and pertuzumab will be administered as follows:

• Trastuzumab will be given intravenously (IV) at a dose of 6 mg/kg or subcutaneously (SC) at a fixed dose of 600 mg, once every 21 days.

AND

  • Pertuzumab will be given IV at 420 mg every 21 days. OR
  • Fixed dose combination of 600 mg pertuzumab, 600 mg trastuzumab, and 20,000 units hyaluronidase will be given SC, once every 21 days, in lieu of trastuzumab and pertuzumab individually.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) by investigator assessment per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 3 years ]
    The time from the date of randomization to the investigator assessment of disease progression according to RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 5 years ]
    The time from randomization to death from any cause.

  2. PFS by blinded independent central review (BICR) per RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 3 years ]
    The time from the date of randomization to the documented disease progression assessed by BICR according to RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause

  3. Time to deterioration of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 3 years ]
    Will be measured based on patient reported outcomes (PROs) according to the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ C30).

  4. Central nervous system (CNS) PFS [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 3 years ]
    The time from randomization to investigator assessed disease progression in brain (RECIST v1.1), or death from any cause

  5. Incidence of adverse events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Through 30 days after last study treatment, approximately 18 months ]
    Any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigational participant administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

  6. Incidence of laboratory abnormalities [ Time Frame: Through 30 days after last study treatment, approximately 18 months ]
    To be summarized using descriptive statistics.

  7. Incidence of tucatinib dose alterations [ Time Frame: Through 30 days after last study treatment, approximately 18 months ]
