Filter by: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.
The purpose of the study is to determine the diagnostic role of ctDNA when used to monitor metastatic breast cancer (MBC) during first-line endocrine therapy.
Despite broad advancements in endocrine therapy for ERα+ breast cancer, resistance ultimately develops. A common driver of resistance are known ESR1 mutations that lead to constitutively active receptor signaling and transcriptional regulation that is always "turned on" despite the absence of estrogen. Patients with ESR1 mutations are expected to have decreased binding affinity for tamoxifen and thus may be underdosed on standard therapy. [18F]-fluoroestradiol Positron Emission Tomography/Computed tomography (FES-PET/CT) imaging is a novel functional imaging technique that can non-invasively measure ERα expression and inhibition in metastatic ERα+ breast cancer. The proposed a pilot study uses FES-PET/CT imaging to measure ERα blockade to determine the optimal dose of tamoxifen in patients with ESR1 mutations.
