Summary:
About 10-20% of all individuals with breast cancer have a so-called triple-negative tumor
(TNBC). This type of breast cancer has a particularly unfavorable course and a higher
mortality rate compared to other forms of breast cancer. Research studies show that it is
important for individuals with TNBC to achieve a so-called pathologic complete response
(pCR) to treatment. In the phase II study SAKK 66/22, it is being investigated whether
the administration of the drug INT230-6 before surgery for breast cancer can increase the
rate of pCR in the tumor and affected lymph nodes. The tolerability of INT230-6 as well
as other factors such as response to treatment and the possibility of breast-conserving
surgery are also being examined.
Detailed description:
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) poses significant challenges due to its
aggressiveness, high relapse rates, and increased mortality. The Keynote-522 study
revealed a 19.6% incidence of event-free survival (EFS) events in early-stage TNBC
patients over 39 months. Achieving pathological complete response (pCR) and clearing
positive lymph nodes are crucial prognostic factors.
The IMP INT230-6 is a combination of the chemotherapeutic agents cisplatin and
vinblastine, along with a molecule that facilitates their distribution in tumor tissue.
INT230-6, currently in clinical trials, has demonstrated the ability to induce up to 95%
necrosis in T2 breast cancer tumors and it has been observed to stimulate systemic immune
activation during the period between diagnosis and surgery. Moreover, promising results
have been seen in seven refractory breast cancer patients, resulting in decreased Ki67
levels and a median overall survival of 12 months.
Completed and ongoing U.S. clinical trials including 91 patient a window-of-opportunity
trial demonstrate the safety and early activity of INT230-6, both alone and with
checkpoint inhibitors like pembrolizumab and ipilimumab, particularly in resistant cases.
Based on the positive outcomes, it will be assessed within this clinical trial the safety
and early clinical activity of INT230-6 in early TNBC patients, addressing the high unmet
medical need in this challenging subtype.
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Written informed consent according to country specific law and ICH GCP E6(R2)
regulations before registration and prior to any trial specific procedures.

is evaluable per RECIST v1.1, visible in ultrasound and injectable.

determined by echocardiography (ECHO)

determine that the anticoagulation can be stopped at least 24 hours prior to
injection.
- Women of childbearing potential must use highly effective contraception, are not
pregnant or lactating and agree not to become pregnant during trial treatment and
until 6 months after the last dose of INT230-6 or standard of care treatment. A
negative pregnancy test before inclusion into the trial is required for all women of
childbearing potential. (www.swissmedicinfo.ch).

carcinoma, secretory carcinoma, low-grade adenosquamous carcinoma, tall cell
carcinoma with reversed polarity, high-grade metaplastic
- History of invasive malignancy ≤3 years prior to signing informed consent (except
treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or in situ cervical cancer)
- Prior chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation therapy or anti-PD-L1 agent for
previous breast cancer or Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) on the same side.
