Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this research study is to find the lowest dose of the cancer drug parsaclisib that has an effect on the type of breast cancer a participant has. Researchers are looking at how Parsaclisib affects the immune system. They want to learn whether and how it helps the immune system to find cancer cells to fight them. Parsaclisib is an oral drug that limits the effects of a protein called phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase δ (PI3K). By limiting P13K, parsaclisib can block certain cells that prevent the immune cells from working. As a result, it may help the body's immune system to fight tumors. Parsaclisib is being studied in several clinical trials to treat different types of cancers. Parsaclisib has not yet been approved by FDA for the treatment of cancer. Studies have shown that a good way to find out how cancer acts when exposed to anti-cancer drugs is through a pre-operative window study. In this type of study, tissue and blood are collected before treatment. Then subjects receive a study drug for a few weeks before surgery. Blood is drawn during the course of treatment, and leftover tissue is collected during surgery. Comparing the tissue and blood before and after treatment shows the effects the study drug may have had on the tumor. Research shows that cancers differ when you look at the DNA and RNA (genetic codes) that are inside a cancer cell. DNA and RNA carry genetic information that can determine traits in humans (such as eye color, height, reaction to treatment, etc.), as well as the traits of cancer cells. Depending on the genetic profile (particularly DNA and RNA) of the cancer, it may respond differently to parsaclisib. In this study, the investigators will look at the genetic profile of a participant's tumor by studying tissue and blood samples collected before and after receiving treatment.

- Minimum effective dose of parsaclisib
- timeFrame
- At time of surgery (2 weeks after start of parsaclisib)
- description
- To determine the minimum dose of parsaclisib, administered once daily for 14 consecutive days, needed in subjects with triple-negative or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer to result in either a 50% increase in the intratumoral cluster of differentiation 8 (CD8+) Thymus (T) cells/regulatory T cell ratio or a 50% decrease in the percentage of intratumoral regulatory T cells as measured using single cell transcriptomics and/or flow cytometry.

Inclusion Criteria: * Is able to understand and give written informed consent for removal of at least 2 cores of tissue via a pre-treatment research biopsy. Is able to understand and give written informed consent for either collection of leftover tissue at time of surgery and via an end of treatment (EOT) research biopsy). * Is ≥ 18 years of age. * Has histologically confirmed newly diagnosed Stage I-IIIC invasive breast cancer that is triple negative (ER/PR \<1%, HER2 negative) or HER2-positive, and meets the criteria listed below: a. HER 2 positive or overexpressed HER2 confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and florescence in situ hybridization (ISH) according to the 2018 ASCO-CAP guideline: i. IHC score of 3+ without ISH HER2/CEP17 OR ii. ISH HER2/CEP17 amplified with ratio higher than 2.0 OR if reported average HER2 copy number ≥ 6 signals/cell b. Scheduled for lumpectomy, mastectomy or neoadjuvant chemotherapy as first treatment for cancer c. No prior or current therapy for breast cancer d. Amenable to a baseline research breast biopsy e. Amenable to a post-therapy research biopsy (for patients going on to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and not straight to surgery). For patients going directly to surgery, post-therapy biopsy will be obtained at the time of surgery. * Must have sufficient time to receive at least 7 consecutive days of parsaclisib therapy prior to definitive surgery or initiation of chemotherapy.. * Has an ECOG performance status ≤ 1. * Is able to swallow and retain oral medication. * Demonstrates adequate organ function as defined below; all screening labs to be obtained within 72 hr of initiating study treatment. 1. Hemoglobin (Hgb) - ≥ 10.0 g/dL 2. Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) - ≥ 1.5 × 109/L 3. Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC) - \>500 cells/μL 4. Platelets - ≥ 100 × 109/L 5. Creatinine - ≤1.5 × ULN OR Calculated creatinine clearance - ≥ 60 mL/min for subject with creatinine levels \> 1.5 × ULN (creatinine should be calculated per institutional standard) 6. Bilirubin - ≤ 1.5 × ULN or direct bilirubin ≤ ULN for subject with total bilirubin \>1.5 × ULN 7. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) - ≤ 2.5 × ULN 8. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) - ≤ 2.5 × ULN 9.
