- Platelets > 100,000/uL;
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN) ;
- AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) ≤3 X institutional ULN without liver metastases, or ≤ 5X institutional ULN with liver metastases;
- Creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min.
- Left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 50%, as determined by RVG (MUGA) or echocardiogram within 60 days prior to initiation of protocol therapy.
- Prior therapy (see specifics by each cohort below):
- Prior trastuzumab is allowed for all cohorts;
- Prior capecitabine is NOT allowed for participants enrolled to Cohorts 3A/3B ONLY;
- Prior lapatinib is allowed for Cohorts 1, 2, and 3B, but NOT Cohort 3A;
- Prior T-DM1 is NOT allowed for Cohorts 4A and 4B but is required for Cohort 4C. Dose reductions on prior T-DM1 for Cohort 4C do not preclude enrollment on Cohort 4C. Patients on 4C may have progressed on prior T-DM1 in the CNS or non-CNS sites and had to have tolerated therapy without significant toxicity that would preclude retreatment;
- No prior therapy with neratinib is allowed on any cohort;
- There is no limit to the number of previous lines of therapy (including chemotherapy, trastuzumab, and endocrine therapies). At least 2 weeks washout period post chemotherapy, any prior protocol therapy, lapatinib, other targeted or biologic or immunotherapy, or radiation therapy is required prior to study entry;
- No washout is required for hormonal therapy, but concurrent hormonal therapy is not allowed for patients on study. The only exception to this is longstanding ovarian suppression in pre-menopausal patients, if this has been started ≥ 6 months prior to study enrollment. Other hormonal therapies are not allowed while patients are on study.
- The effects of neratinib, capecitabine, and T-DM1 on the developing human fetus are not known. For this reason, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
- HIV-positive individuals on combination antiretroviral therapy are eligible for enrollment and will be monitored closely for potential pharmacokinetic interactions with neratinib.
- Concomitant medications listed in Appendix J should be avoided (when possible) while on study.
- Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
- For Cohorts 1, 3A/3B, 4B and 4C patients must have new or progressive measurable CNS lesions, as assessed by the patient’s treating physician. This includes patients who have progressed after at least one line of standard local treatment for CNS disease (WBRT, SRS, or surgical resection as below).
- In Cohort 2, eligible patients will include those who have CNS disease that is amenable for surgery (typically < 3 brain metastases and with planned resection by neurosurgery). These patients may include those who have received or not received previous treatment(s) for their CNS.
- Further eligibility details for patients with progressive disease (Cohorts 1, 3A/3B, 4A, 4B, 4C):
- Patients must have measurable CNS disease, defined as at least one parenchymal brain lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension with longest dimension ≥10 mm by local radiology review. Note: measurable non-CNS disease is NOT required for study participation;
- It is anticipated that some patients may have multiple progressive CNS lesions, one or several of which are treated with SRS or surgery with residual untreated lesions remaining. Such patients are eligible for enrollment on this study providing that at least one residual (i.e., non-SRS-treated or non-resected) lesion is measurable (≥10 mm). The location of the measurable lesion should be documented in the patient chart and case report form;
- Patients who have had prior cranial surgery are eligible, provided that there is evidence of measurable residual or progressive lesions, and at least 2 weeks have passed since surgery. If a patient has surgical resection followed by WBRT, then there must be evidence of progressive CNS disease after the completion of WBRT;
- Except for those in Cohort 4A where prior local CNS therapy is not allowed, patients who have had prior WBRT and/or SRS and then whose prior treated lesions have progressed thereafter are also eligible for all other cohorts. In this case, lesions which have been treated with SRS may be considered as target lesions if there is unequivocal evidence, in the opinion of the treating physician, of progression.
- Further eligibility details for patients with operable disease (Cohort 2):
- It is anticipated that that patients who have intracranial disease amenable to surgery will have measurable CNS disease prior to study entry and to resection. However, this is not an eligibility requirement. Measurable disease is also not required to continue on protocol subsequent to surgical resection;
- For patients who undergo surgery, postoperative whole brain radiation therapy will not be allowed while patients are on study (concurrent neratinib and radiation therapy has not been studied and toxicity of this is unknown). Patients will require discontinuation of neratinib if WBRT will be administered. However, if the treated provider feels that targeted radiosurgery (SRS, gamma knife, etc.) would be of benefit postoperatively, patients may proceed with this and then begin neratinib AFTER radiation completes.
- Further eligibility details for patients on Cohort 4A: All patients on Cohort 4A will not have received prior radiation or surgery to their brain. Prior systemic therapy aimed to treat disease in the brain is allowed (i.e., prior systemic standard therapy or protocol systemic therapy for brain mets).
- Note: Laboratory tests required for eligibility must be completed within 4 weeks prior to study entry. Baseline measurements in the CNS must be documented from tests up to 21 days prior to planned start of protocol therapy unless not covered by insurance. If insurance coverage is an issue, a case by case approval of testing beyond this window may be approved by the overall study PI. Other non-laboratory tests must be performed as indicated.
- Participants who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy (including investigational agents) within 2 weeks prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered adequately from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier (excluding alopecia). Washout from trastuzumab or hormonal therapy is not required.
- Participants who are currently receiving any other investigational agents.
- History of severe allergic reactions or intolerability attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to neratinib (all cohorts), capecitabine for Cohorts 3A/3B, and T-DM1 for Cohorts 4A-4C.
- Concurrent use of enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs (EIAEDs), including phenytoin, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, fosphenytoin, phenobarbital, pentobarbital, or primidone.
- Patients who are receiving any cancer-directed concurrent therapy, such as concurrent chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or hormonal therapy while on study. Concurrent treatment with bisphosphonates and denosumab is allowed for bony metastases but should be started before the first dose of neratinib.
- Any prior treatment with capecitabine for patients enrolled to Cohorts 3A/3B, prior lapatinib for participants on Cohort 3A, and T-DM1 for Cohorts 4A-4B.
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- For Cohorts 4A, 4B, and 4C: Patients with myocardial infarction or cardiomyopathy onset within the last 6 months are excluded.
- Active hepatitis B or hepatitis C with abnormal liver function tests (Cohorts 4A-4C):
- Positive Hepatitis B (Hepatitis B surface antigen and antibody) and/or Hepatitis C (Hepatitis C antibody test) as indicated by serologies conducted ≤ 3 months prior to registration if liver function tests are outside of the normal institutional range.
- Note: Patients with positive Hepatitis B or C serologies without known active disease are eligible if they meet all laboratory requirements. Patients with laboratory evidence of vaccination to Hepatitis B (e.g., positive antibodies) are also eligible.
- Active liver disease from autoimmune disorders or sclerosing cholangitis.
- Lung disease from etiology other than metastatic breast cancer resulting in dyspnea at rest (4A-4C).
- More than two seizures over the last 4 weeks prior to study entry.
- Patients with known contraindication to MRI, such as cardiac pacemaker, shrapnel, or ocular foreign body. However, Head CT with contrast is allowed in place of MRI at baseline and throughout the study if MRI is contraindicated and a participant’s CNS lesions are clearly measurable on the head CT.
- Those with leptomeningeal metastases as the only site of CNS disease.
- Significant malabsorption syndrome or inability to tolerate oral medications.
- Any predisposing chronic condition resulting in baseline grade 2 or higher diarrhea.
- Inability to comply with study and/or follow-up procedures.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because neratinib (and other agents on study) is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk of adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with neratinib, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with neratinib. Negative urine pregnancy test is required for women of childbearing potential within 4 weeks of planned treatment start.
- Individuals with a history of a different active malignancy are ineligible.

Phase 1 Dose Escalation and Expansion Cohort Trial of Carboplatin and Gemcitabine with or without M6620 (VX-970) in First or Second Recurrence Platinum-Sensitive Epithelial Ovarian, Peritoneal, and Fallopian Tube Cancer
Carboplatin and Gemcitabine Hydrochloride With or Without VX-970 in Treating Patients With Recurrent and Metastatic Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer
- Histologically confirmed high grade serous or endometrioid ovarian, peritoneal or fallopian tube malignancy that is metastatic and for which curative measures do not exist. The histology can be confirmed from tissue that was taken at the time of diagnosis. A biopsy at the time of recurrence prior to enrollment on study is not required.
- Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as ≥ 20 mm (≥ 2 cm) with conventional techniques or as ≥ 10 mm (≥ 1 cm) with spiral CT scan, MRI, or calipers by clinical exam.
- Patients enrolled in the phase 2 portion of the study will be required to have archival tumor tissue available for analysis and be willing to have a tumor biopsy at baseline (after registration and prior to starting study treatment) and at Cycle 1 Day 2.
- Patients must have platinum sensitive disease and be in their first or second platinum sensitive recurrence. Platinum sensitive disease is defined as recurrence that occurred greater than six months after completion of their last line of platinum based therapy. No non-platinum regimens allowed. Prior therapy with PARP inhibitors as well as bevacizumab is allowed.
- No more than two prior platinum based regimens. One regimen is defined as the interval of treatment from start of platinum based doublet to finish of that treatment course for the initial therapy or for the recurrent disease episode. If the nonplatinum agent is altered due to any reason other than disease progression, it counts as one regimen. For example, if a patient started on carboplatin and paclitaxel but developed a taxol reaction and was switched to carboplatin and Abraxane, this counts as one prior regimen.
- Age ≥18 years.
- Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of M6620 (VX-970) in combination with carboplatin and gemcitabine in patients <18 years of age, children are excluded from this study, but will be eligible for future pediatric trials.
- ECOG performance status ≤ 2 (Karnofsky ≥ 60%, see Appendix A).
- Life expectancy of greater than 6 months.
- Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
- Leukocytes ≥3,000/mcL
- Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥1,500/mcL
- Platelets ≥100,000/mcL
- Total Bilirubin Within normal institutional limits
- AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) ≤ 2 × institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Creatinine Within normal institutional limits OR
- Creatinine Clearance ≥ 50 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal.
- Negative serum pregnancy test result for females of child bearing potential
- Note: The effects of M6620 (VX-970) on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because DNA-damage response (DDR) inhibitors as well as other therapeutic agents used in this trial may have teratogenic potential, women of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and 6 months after completion of M6620 (VX-970) administration. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consentdocument.
- Of note, if appropriate per the FDA approved indications, patients may receive PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy after the primary endpoint has been reached, if desired. This therapy is not a part of the clinical trial and should be discussed and performed at the discretion of the patient and treating physician.
- Patients with platinum resistant disease or platinum sensitive disease that is past the first or second recurrence.
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier, excluding alopecia. Patients with treatment related effects, such as peripheral neuropathy, that are grade 1 or less are eligible.
- Prior exposure to gemcitabine.
- Patients who are concurrently receiving any other investigational agents.
- Patients with known brain metastases should be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to M6620 (VX-970), carboplatin, gemcitabine or to these specific compounds.
- M6620 (VX-970) is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4; therefore, concomitant administration with strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 should be avoided. Because the lists of these agents are constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a frequently- updated medical reference for a list of drugs to avoid or minimize use of. Appendix B (Patient Drug Information Handout and Wallet Card) should be provided to patients. As part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the patient will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product.
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with studyrequirements.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because M6620 (VX-970) as a DNA-damage response (DDR) inhibitor may have the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with M6620 (VX-970), breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with M6620 (VX-970). These potential risks also apply to the other agents used in this study, such as carboplatin and gemcitabine.
- Patients with Li Fraumeni syndrome are excluded from the study as M6620 (VX-970) is a DDR inhibitor.
- Addition of bevacizumab to the treatment in this study is not allowed. If the treating physician feels that the addition of bevacizumab is in the best interest of the patient, the patient should be treated with the FDA approved carboplatin/gemcitabine/bevacizumab regimen outside of the present study.
