Study Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of Treatment With Alpelisib Plus Fulvestrant Versus Placebo Plus Fulvestrant in Chinese Men and Postmenopausal Women With Advanced Breast Cancer

Breast Neoplasms Clinical Trial

Official title: A Phase II Randomized Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of Alpelisib in Combination With Fulvestrant for Chinese Men and Postmenopausal Women With Hormone Receptor Positive, HER2-negative, PIK3CA Mutant Advanced Breast Cancer Which Progressed on or After Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) Treatment, Including a Subset With Pharmacokinetic Analysis

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective is to evaluate whether treatment with alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant prolongs Progression Free Survival (PFS) compared to treatment with placebo in combination with fulvestrant.

The primary scientific question of interest is: what is the treatment effect based on PFS for alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant versus placebo in combination with fulvestrant in Chinese men and postmenopausal women with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation, who received prior treatment with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) either as (neo) adjuvant treatment or as treatment for advanced disease, regardless of study treatment discontinuation or start of new anti-neoplastic therapy.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study conducted in Chinese men and postmenopausal women with HR- positive, HER2-negative, PIK3CA mutant advanced breast cancer which progressed on or after AI treatment. The study also includes a single arm, open-label cohort (the PK cohort) to conduct pharmacokinetic analysis.

For the randomized cohort, in the randomized treatment phase, subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive alpelisib or matching placebo plus fulvestrant.

A total of approximately 120 subjects will be enrolled; randomization will be stratified by:

1. Lung and/or liver metastases (yes versus no)

2. Previous treatment with any CDK4/6 inhibitor (yes versus no) The total number of subjects pre-treated with any CDK4/6 inhibitor will be limited to 30% of the total number of subjects.

Approximately 15 subjects meeting the same inclusion/exclusion criteria as the randomized cohort will be enrolled into the PK cohort. Subjects in the PK cohort will receive alpelisib plus fulvestrant.

Subjects will continue to receive study treatment until disease progression as determined by investigator, unacceptable toxicity, or until discontinuation of study treatment due to any other reason. ;
