NCT03423199

Brief Summary

This study is conducted to evaluate the benefit of adding palbociclib in hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients, regardless of menopausal status, treated with tamoxifen (with or without goserelin) versus tamoxifen alone (with or without goserelin).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free survival (PFS)

    The time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of objective progression of disease (PD), clinically diagnosed symptomatic deterioration, or death due to any cause in the absence of documented PD, whichever occurs first.

    Baseline up to 3.5 years

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    From the randomization of the last patient up to 3 years

  • Survival Probabilities at 1 year, 2 year, and 3 year

    From the randomization of the last patient up to 3 years

  • Objective Response (OR)

    Baseline up to 3.5 years

  • Duration of Response (DR)

    Baseline up to 3.5 years

  • Clinical Benefit Response (CBR)

    Baseline up to 3.5 years

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Women 18 years of age or older with histologically or cytologically proven locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, not amenable to resection or radiation therapy with curative intent
  • Documented diagnosis of HR+/HER2- breast cancer
  • Any menopausal status
  • Previously untreated with any endocrine therapy for their HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer; or progressed while on or within 3 month from prior endocrine therapy other than tamoxifen for advanced breast cancer. If patients have adjuvant endocrine therapy, they must satisfy as follows: progressed 12 months or more since prior adjuvant endocrine therapy with tamoxifen; or progressed during or after adjuvant endocrine therapy with an aromatase inhibitor.
  • Measurable disease or non-measurable disease as defined by RECIST ver.1.1
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) PS 0-1
  • Adequate organ and marrow function, resolution of all toxic effects of prior therapy or surgical procedures

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior treatment with any CDK inhibitor, tamoxifen, everolimus, or agent that inhibits the PI3K-mTOR pathway
  • Patients with extensive advanced/metastatic, symptomatic visceral disease, or known uncontrolled or symptomatic CNS metastases
  • Use of strong or moderate CYP3A4 and/or CYP2D6 inhibitors or inducers
  • Major surgery or any anti-cancer therapy within 2 weeks of randomization
  • Prior stem cell or bone marrow transplantation
