Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Progression Free Survival (PFS): Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population By Interactive Web Recognition System (IWRS)
PFS was defined as the time in months from randomization to the first documentation of progression of disease (PD) or death on study due to any cause, whichever occurred first. PD according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) was defined as greater than or equal to (\>=) 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of the target lesions taking as a reference the smallest sum recorded since the start of treatment or unequivocal progression in non-target lesions or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions. The analysis of PFS was based on investigator assessment of disease progression. Participants who were not known to have had a PFS event at the analysis date were censored at last tumor assessment date prior to data cutoff or date of new treatment initiation, whichever occurred first.
From randomization until PD, last tumor assessment without PD before new antitumor treatment initiation or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to 3 years)
Progression Free Survival (PFS): Diagnostic Positive (DX+) Population By Interactive Web Recognition System (IWRS)
PFS was defined as the time in months from randomization to the first documentation of PD or death on study due to any cause, whichever occurred first. PD according to RECIST 1.1, was defined as \>= 20% increase in the sum of diameters of the target lesions taking as a reference the smallest sum recorded since the start of treatment or unequivocal progression in non-target lesions or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions. The analysis of PFS was based on investigator assessment of disease progression. Participants who were not known to have had a PFS event at the analysis date were censored at last tumor assessment date prior to data cutoff or date of new treatment initiation, whichever occurred first.
From randomization until PD, last tumor assessment without PD before new antitumor treatment initiation or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to 3 years)
Secondary Outcomes (9)
Clinical Benefit Rate-24 (CBR-24)
From randomization up to 3 years
Best Objective Response Rate
From randomization until CR or PR, whichever occurred first (up to 3 years)
Duration of Objective Response
From first documentation of CR or PR until PD, or last tumor assessment without PD before new antitumor treatment initiation or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to 3 years)
Time to Response
From randomization until first documentation of CR or PR, or last tumor assessment without PD or death prior to new antitumor treatment initiation, whichever occurred first (up to 3 years)
Time to Progression
From randomization until PD or last tumor assessment without PD before new antitumor treatment initiation, whichever occurred first (up to 3 years)

Study Arms (2)
Enzalutamide & exemestane
EXPERIMENTALEnzalutamide 160 mg/day administered as four 40mg soft gelatin capsules by mouth once daily with or without food and exemestane 50mg (two 25mg tablets overencapsulated as a single capsule during the blinded portion of the study and two 25mg tablets after unblinding) once daily after food.
Placebo & exemestane
ACTIVE COMPARATORPlacebo and exemestane 25mg (overencapsulated to match 50mg dose during the blinded portion of the study and one 25mg tablet without placebo after unblinding) once daily after food.
Interventions
160 mg/day administered as four 40mg soft gelatin capsules by mouth once daily with or without food.
25mg (overencapsulated to match 50mg dose during the blinded portion of the study and one 25mg tablet after unblinding) by mouth once daily after food.
Sugar pill manufactured to mimic enzalutamide administered as four soft gelatin capsules by mouth once daily with or without food.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Willing and able to provide informed consent;
- Postmenopausal;
- Advanced histologically confirmed breast cancer that is ER+, PgR+, or both, and HER-2 normal;
- Up to one prior hormone therapy and up to one prior chemotherapy in the advanced setting is allowed;
- Availability of a representative, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor specimen that enabled the diagnosis of breast cancer with viable tumor cells in a tissue block or unstained serial slides accompanied bay an associated pathology report;
- Measurable disease. Patients with non-measurable bone or skin disease as their only manifestation of advanced breast cancer are also eligible;
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status of 0 or 1;
You may not qualify if:
- Any severe concurrent disease, infection, or comorbid condition that renders the patient inappropriate for enrollment in the opinion of the investigator;
- Any condition or reason that interferes with the patient's ability to participate in the trial, that may cause undue risk, or complicates the interpretation of safety data, in the opinion of the investigator;
- Current or previously treated brain metastasis or leptomeningeal disease;
- Prior therapy (\> 28 days) with exemestane in the metastatic setting (Patients receiving exemestane in the adjuvant setting and having disease recurrence more than 1 year after treatment discontinuation are eligible);
- Requires treatment for tuberculosis or HIV infection;
- Radiation therapy within 7 days before randomization;
- History of another invasive cancer within 5 years before randomization;
- History of seizure or any condition that may predispose to seizure;
- Clinically significant cardiovascular disease;
- Active gastrointestinal disorder;
- Major surgery within 28 days prior to randomization;
- Treatment with any oral anticancer or with any non-hormonal anticancer agent within 14 days before randomization;
- Treatment with any approved or investigational agent that blocks androgen synthesis or targets the androgen receptor;
- Treatments with any of the following medications within 14 days before randomization: Estrogens, Androgens, or Systemic radionuclides;
- Hypersensitivity reaction to exemestane.
