This trial will study a type of advanced breast cancer (ABC) defined as endocrine receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-negative and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1)-mutated. Patients will be treated with elacestrant, a compound that acts as a selective estrogen receptor degrader, and everolimus (or placebo), a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women with advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer.
The main purpose of the study is to analyze the efficacy (to find out how effective a treatment is) of elacestrant plus everolimus therapy in patients who have ER-positive/HER2-negative, ESR1-mutated, ABC progressing to endocrine therapy and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor. The efficacy of elacestrant plus everolimus combination will be determined by assessing the period from elacestrant plus everolimus (or placebo) treatment initiation until to the first occurrence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or discontinuation from the study treatment for any other reason, whichever occurs first, defined as progression free survival.
Rigorous eligibility criteria based on specific co-morbidities and clinicopathologic features of their disease have been designed to minimize the risk of patients participating in this study. The anticipated favorable clinical benefits of elacestrant combined with everolimus are projected to outweigh the risks of this treatment. This study will be performed in full compliance with International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) and all applicable local Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and regulations.
Patient must be capable to understand the purpose of the study and have signed written informed consent form (ICF) prior to beginning specific protocol procedures.
Female or male patients ≥ 18 years of age at the time of signing ICF.
Pre- or perimenopausal women, who do not meet the criteria for post-menopausal status (defined in continuation) and men must be concurrently receiving a LHRH analogue for at least 28 days (if shorter, post-menopausal levels of serum estradiol/follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH] must be confirmed analytically) prior to study randomization and are planning to continue LHRH agonist treatment during the study.
Age ≥ 60 years;
Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior anti-cancer therapy to grade ≤ 1 as determined by the National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.5.0 (except for toxicities not considered a safety risk for the patient at Investigator's discretion).
Women of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized male partner must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days before randomization. In addition, they agree to use one highly effective method of birth control 28 days prior to start of treatment until 120 days after the last dose of study treatments. Female patients must refrain from egg cell donation and breastfeeding during this same time period.
Male participants with a female partner of childbearing potential must be surgically sterile or using a highly effective method of contraception 28 days prior to treatment until 120 days after the last dose of study treatments to prevent pregnancy in a partner. Male participants must not donate or bank sperm during this same time period. Not engaging in heterosexual activity (sexual abstinence) for the duration of the study and 120 days after the last dose of study treatments is an acceptable practice if this is the preferred usual lifestyle of the participant.
