Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical Benefit Rate

    The clinical benefit rate (complete responses + partial responses + stable disease at 24 weeks) will be ascertained and compared between subjects treated with 17b-estradiol harboring amplified/mutant ESR1 and wild-type ESR1.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Objective response rate

    8 weeks

  • Progression-free survival

    12 months

  • Tumor Metabolic response

    12 months

  • Adverse event profiles

    12 months

Study Arms (1)

Treatment Arm

OTHER

Treatment Phase: Patients will be treated with 17b-estradiol until disease progression. At this point, the patient will end protocol therapy

Drug: Estradiol

Interventions

Estradiol is a therapeutic option for the treatment of advanced ER+ breast cancer

Also known as: Estrace

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Post-menopausal women with ER+ breast cancer.
  • Metastatic or locoregional recurrence not amenable to treatment with curative
  • intent.
  • Received ≥1 prior line of endocrine-based therapy (e.g., including tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, fulvestrant, or combinations) in the advanced/metastatic setting

You may not qualify if:

  • During the study Treatment Phase with 17b-estradiol, no concurrent anti-cancer therapies are allowed with the following exceptions:
  • Exception: Trastuzumab is allowed for the treatment of subjects with a history of HER2+ disease, and will be used at the physician's discretion.
  • Exception: Anti-resorptive bone therapies (e.g., bisphosphonates, denosumab) are permitted.
  • Any investigational cancer therapy in the last 3 weeks.
  • Known CNS disease, unless clinically stable for ≥ 3 months.
  • History of any of the following:
  • Deep venous thrombosis.
  • Pulmonary embolism.
  • Stroke.
  • Acute myocardial infarction.
  • Congestive heart failure.
  • Previous malignancy not treated with curative intent, or with an estimated recurrence risk ≥30%.
