In plain English

This study is testing a new drug called ECI830, either on its own or together with other treatment, in adults with advanced breast cancer that is HR positive and HER2 negative, and in people with other advanced solid tumours, including a type of lung cancer and tumours with a specific gene change called CCNE1 amplification. It is run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals.

Who can take part

  • Adults aged 18 or over.
  • For Phase I: advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer that got worse during or after hormone-based treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor plus at least one more type of treatment for disease that had spread.
  • For Phase I: advanced or spread cancer confirmed by tests, with a CCNE1 gene amplification (for the dose expansion part: no more than 3 previous treatments for advanced or spread disease).
  • For Phase I: extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that got worse during or after standard treatment (for dose expansion: no more than 2 previous treatments).
  • For Phase II: advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer that got worse while on an aromatase inhibitor or tamoxifen with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, with no more than 2 previous hormone therapies.
  • Disease that can be measured on scans (for breast cancer only: if not measurable, at least one bone lesion suitable for repeated checks).

Who may not be able to

  • Any previous treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor.
  • Blood test or organ function results that are not within the needed range.
  • Significant uncontrolled heart disease or heart rhythm problems, including heart attack, bypass surgery, long QT syndrome, or risk factors for a serious rhythm problem called TdP.
  • Brain or spinal cord secondaries (CNS metastases) that cause symptoms or need local treatment or increasing steroid doses within 2 weeks before joining.
  • For the combination treatment: cancer symptoms in organs that would make hormone-based treatment unsuitable.
  • For the combination treatment: people who previously could not tolerate the drug ribociclib at the prescribed dose.
  • For breast cancer patients: currently using hormone replacement therapy.
  • People who could become pregnant and are unwilling to use highly effective contraception, and those who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

What taking part involves

  • • Taking ECI830 on its own or in combination with other treatment (the combination includes ribociclib).
  • • Regular scans and checks to measure the disease and how the treatment is working.
  • • Repeated laboratory (blood) tests during the study.

Time commitment: Not stated — ask the trial team about how many visits are needed, how long the study lasts, and what taking part would involve.

About This Trial

Phase I: Characterize safety and tolerability of ECI830 as a single agent and in combination with ribociclib and fulvestrant. Identify dose range for optimization/recommended dose for future studies. Phase II: Assess the anti-tumor activity of ECI830 in combination with ribociclib and fulvestrant in patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) advanced breast cancer.

More detail

This is a first-in-human, open-label, phase I/II, multi-center study consisting of an ECI830 single agent treatment arm in patients with advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer or other advanced solid tumors harboring CCNE1 amplification or extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), and a combination treatment arm of ECI830 with ribociclib and fulvestrant in patients with advanced breast cancer. Single agent escalation may be followed by an expansion part stratified by disease indication. The escalation of the combination arm may continue into a randomized, open label, Phase II with optional dose optimization in advanced breast cancer patients.

Inclusion Criteria: Age ≥ 18 years old. Patients with one of the following indications: Phase I: HR+/HER2- aBC with disease progression on or following at least one line of hormone-based therapy in combination with a CDK4/6i and at least one additional line of systemic therapy for metastatic disease. Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced or metastatic cancer with a CCNE1 amplification. For dose expansion only: no more than 3 prior lines of therapy for advanced or metastatic disease. Patients with ES-SCLC and disease progression on or after standard of care (SoC). For dose expansion only: no more than 2 prior lines of therapy for advanced or metastatic disease are allowed. Phase II: HR+/HER2- aBC with disease progression on an aromatase inhibitor or tamoxifen in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor for unresectable/metastatic disease with no more than 2 lines of endocrine therapy. Measurable disease as determined by RECIST v1.1. BC only: If no measurable disease is present, then at least one predominantly lytic bone lesion must be present that can be accurately assessed at baseline and is suitable for repeated assessment. Exclusion Criteria: Previous treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor at any time. Patients with inadequate bone marrow and/or organ functions with out-of-range laboratory values. Clinically significant, uncontrolled heart disease and/or cardiac repolarization abnormality including MI, CABG, long QT syndrome, or risk factors for TdP. Presence of symptomatic CNS metastases or CNS metastases that require local therapy or increasing doses of corticosteroids within 2 weeks prior to study entry. For the combination treatment: Patients with symptomatic visceral disease or any disease burden that makes the patient ineligible for endocrine-based therapy. Patients who could not tolerate the prescribed dose of ribociclib during a previous course of treatment, requiring dose reduction or permanent discontinuation due to adverse events. For patients with BC: Patient is concurrently using hormone replacement therapy. WOCBP who are unwilling to use highly effective contraception methods, pregnant or nursing women. Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
