Brief Summary:
This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of nilotinib in preventing paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy in stage I-III breast cancer patients who are receiving paclitaxel therapy. Chemotherapy is the usual or standard treatment for breast cancer. It kills cancer cells and lowers the chance that the cancer will come back. Sometimes, this treatment can cause numbness and tingling, especially in the hands and feet. This is called chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. This study aims to test the safety and effectiveness, both good and bad, of taking nilotinib in preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of nilotinib hydrochloride monohydrate (nilotinib) in combination with paclitaxel.
II. To determine the toxicity profile (based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\] version \[v.\] 5.0) of nilotinib in combination with paclitaxel.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the effect of paclitaxel on pharmacokinetics (PK) of nilotinib in the study population.
II. To determine the effect of nilotinib on PK of paclitaxel in the study population.
OUTLINE: This is a phase Ib, dose-escalation study of nilotinib hydrochloride monohydrate.
PHASE Ib: Paclitaxel will be given weekly on days 1, 8, 15, of every 21 days, at a starting dose of 80mg/m2. Nilotinib will be given orally on cycle 1 Days 7, 14 once a day 24 hours prior to the paclitaxel infusion and again 30 minutes prior to the paclitaxel infusion on days 8, 15. During the cycle 1, PK will be obtained at baseline, during, and up to 24 hours after paclitaxel or nilotinib administration on the days 1, 7, 8. Patients will continue paclitaxel without nilotinib after cycle 1 as part of standard of care at the discretion of the treating investigator
