About this trial
This is a randomized, controlled, open-label, phase III study to explore the efficacy and safety of Apatinib in combination with standard first-line endocrine therapy for the HR+/ HER2-SNF4 subtype of advanced breast cancer. The study was used to explore the efficacy of Apatinib in combination with standard endocrine therapy.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patients need to meet all of the following conditions
Patients must be ≥18 and ≤ 75 years of age;
Pathologically confirmed breast cancer is HR+/HER2- breast cancer (IHC ER >10%, or/and PR>10%, HER 0 OR +, if HER2++, FISH negative);
SNF4 subtype definition: SNF4 subtype confirmed by digital pathology of H&E sections;
Disqualifiers
Patients with any of the following conditions were excluded from the study
Patients with central nervous system metastasis out of control (symptoms need to use glucocorticoids or mannitol).
A history of clinically significant or uncontrolled heart disease, including congestive heart failure, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction within the last 6 months, or ventricular arrhythmia;
Radiotherapy, chemotherapy, surgery, other targeted therapy, and immunotherapy for advanced HR+/HER2- breast cancer within 4 weeks before the first administration of drugs used in this study.

Treatments tested in this trial
Apatinib
DrugApatinib is a kind of TKI inhibitor.
CDK4/6 Inhibitor
DrugDalpiciclib (SHR6390) is a kind of CDK4/6 inhibitor that has demonstrated tolerability and preliminary clinical activity in patients with heavily pretreated hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer.
Aromatase inhibitor and Fulvestrant
DrugEndocrine therapy combined with CDK4/6 inhibitors is the standard first-line therapy for advanced luminal breast cancer. Investigators choose endocrine therapy including Letrozole, Anastrozole, Exemestane, and Fulvestrant. Postmenopausal participants should use Goserelin.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
The interval from randomization until the first occurrence of disease progression (according to RECIST 1.1) or death from any cause, which ever occurs first.
Secondary outcomes
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)
CBR is the total percentage of participants who achieved a complete response, partial response, or had stable disease for 6 months or more.
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR is defined as the proportion of participants who have a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on BICR and investigator assessment using RECIST 1.1.
Overall Survival (OS)
OS is defined as the time from randomisation until the date of death due to any cause.
Safety and tolerability
Number of adverse events according to NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0 per each treatment arm.
