Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
PFS was assessed by the Investigator as defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. PFS was defined as the time from randomisation until the date of objective disease progression or death (by any cause in the absence of progression) regardless of whether the patient withdraws from randomised therapy or received another anti-cancer therapy prior to progression. Disease progression was defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, unequivocal progression in non-target lesions, and/or appearance of new lesions. Data from the 300mg arm should be interpreted with caution as recruitment to the 300mg arm was stopped early at 20 patients randomised and therefore the 300mg data is highly variable.
From date of randomisation to date of objective disease progression (or last evaluable assessment in the absence of progression) or death (up to data cut-off of 29 months)
Secondary Outcomes (8)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
From screening until disease progression (up to data cut-off of 29 months)
Duration of Response (DoR)
From screening until disease progression or last evaluable assessment in the absence of progression (up to data cut-off of 29 months)
Percentage Change in Tumour Size at 16 Weeks
At Week 16
Overall Survival (OS)
From the date of randomisation until death (up to data cut-off of 29 months)
Clinical Benefit Rate at 24 Weeks (CBR24)
At Week 24
- +3 more secondary outcomes
Other Outcomes (1)
Number of Patients With Adverse Events
From the date of first dose up to the safety follow-up period (28 days after last dose of AZD9833 and 56 days after last dose of fulvestrant) (up to data cut-off of 29 months)

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Post-menopausal female patients aged at least 18 years.
- Metastatic or loco-regionally recurrent ER-positive HER2-negative adenocarcinoma of the breast.
- Radiological or other objective evidence of progression on or after the last systemic therapy prior to starting study treatment.

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)/World Health Organisation (WHO) performance status 0 to 1.
- Prior endocrine therapy as follows:
- Recurrence or progression on at least one line of endocrine therapy
- No more than 1 line of endocrine therapy for advanced disease
- No more than 1 line of chemotherapy for advanced disease
- Prior treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors is permitted
- No prior treatment with fulvestrant, oral selective oestrogen receptor degrader (SERD), or related therapies
- Washout from prior tamoxifen: 4 months to elapse from last tamoxifen dose to pre-dose on-study biopsy.
You may not qualify if:
- Intervention with any of the following:
- Any cytotoxic chemotherapy, investigational agents or other anti-cancer drugs for the treatment of breast cancer from a previous treatment regimen or clinical study within 14 days of the first dose of study treatment.
- Use of systemic oestrogen-containing hormone replacement therapy within 6 months prior to the first dose of study treatment.
- Medications or herbal supplements known to be strong inhibitors/inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4/5 and sensitive CYP2B6 substrates, and drugs which are substrates of CYP2C9 and/or CYP2C19 which have a narrow therapeutic index or inability to stop use within the washout period prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment.
- Drugs that are known to prolong QT and have a known risk of torsades de pointes.
- The following cardiovascular criteria: QTcF \>470 ms, resting heart rate \<45 bpm, clinically significant abnormalities of resting electrocardiogram, uncontrolled hypertension, symptomatic hypotension, factors that increase the risk for QTc prolongation, left ventricular ejection fraction \<50%.
- Radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation for palliation within 1 week of dosing, or to \> 30% of bone marrow or a wide field within 4 weeks of dosing.
- Major surgical procedure or significant traumatic injury.
- Presence of life-threatening metastatic visceral disease or uncontrolled central nervous system metastatic disease.
- Inadequate bone marrow reserve or organ function.
- Refractory nausea and vomiting, uncontrolled chronic gastrointestinal diseases, inability to swallow the formulated product, or previous significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption of AZD9833.
- History of hypersensitivity to active or inactive excipients of AZD9833 or fulvestrant.
- Previous randomisation in the present study.
- Women of childbearing potential.

Limitations and Caveats
At the time of CSR finalization, CSP version 5.0 was available, therefore, CSP version 5.0 was redacted and submitted along with the Results Registration Form. Data from the 300mg arm should be interpreted with caution as recruitment to the 300mg arm was stopped early at 20 patients randomised and therefore the 300mg data is highly variable.
