Overview

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of the combination of lasofoxifene and abemaciclib compared to fulvestrant and abemaciclib for the treatment of pre- and postmenopausal women and men who have previously received ribociclib or palbociclib-based treatment and have locally advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer with an estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) mutation.

The main question the study aims to answer is:

• To compare the efficacy of the combination of lasofoxifene and abemaciclib with that of fulvestrant and abemaciclib Participants will receive either receive 5 mg/d of oral lasofoxifene plus oral abemaciclib 150 mg twice a day or the combination of fulvestrant 500 mg intramuscular (IM) on Days 1, 15, and 29 and then once monthly thereafter plus oral abemaciclib 150 mg twice a day.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Pre- or postmenopausal women or men.
  • Locally advanced and/or metastatic ER+ breast cancer with radiological or clinical evidence of progression on an AI in combination with either palbociclib or ribociclib as their first hormonal treatment for metastatic disease.
  • Histological or cytological confirmation of ER+/HER2 - disease
  • No evidence of progression for at least 6 months on an AI/CDKi combination for advanced breast cancer.
  • At least 1 or more ESR1 point mutations in the ESR1 ligand binding domain as assessed in cell- free ctDNA obtained from a blood or breast cancer tissue.
  • Locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer with either measurable (according to RECIST 1.1) or non-measurable lesions.
  • Subjects may have received 1 cytotoxic chemotherapy regimen in the metastatic disease setting prior to study entry, but must have recovered from chemotherapy acute toxicity excluding alopecia and Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score of 0 or 1
  • Adequate organ function
  • Able to swallow tablets

Exclusion Criteria

  • Lymphangitic carcinomatosis involving the lung.
  • History of Grade 3 or Grade 4 interstitial lung disease (ILD) on previous therapy.
  • Visceral crisis in need of cytotoxic chemotherapy as assessed by the investigator.
  • Prior progression of disease on abemaciclib, fulvestrant, or other selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) therapy.
  • Subjects with a known hypersensitivity to fulvestrant or to any of the excipients
  • Radiotherapy within 30 days prior to Visit 0 (Day 1) except in case of localized radiotherapy for analgesic purposes or for lytic lesions at risk of fracture, which can then be completed within 7 days prior to Visit 0 (Day 1). Subjects must have recovered from radiotherapy toxicities prior to Visit 0 (Day 1).
  • Known RB1 mutations or deletions that in the opinion of the investigator confer resistance to CDK4/6i. (Screening for RB1 mutation is not required for entry.)
  • History of long QTc (Q-T interval corrected for heart rate) syndrome or a QTc of \>480 msec.
  • History of a pulmonary embolus (PE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or any known thrombophilia, unless the event occurred greater than 6 months prior to screening and the subject is treated with chronic anticoagulant therapy such as apixaban (Eliquis) or rivaroxaban (Xarelto).
  • Lasofoxifene is not recommended for use in subjects with conditions that place them at increased risk for VTEs (such as severe congestive heart failure \[CHF\] or prolonged immobilization).

Arms & Interventions

Intervention: Fulvestrant in combination with abemaciclib

Treatment

Pre- and Postmenopausal Women and Men with locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer who have disease progression on an AI in combination with either palbociclib or ribociclib as their first hormonal treatment for metastatic disease and who have an ESR1 mutation.

Intervention: Lasofoxifene in combination with abemaciclib

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Progression free survival (PFS)

Time Frame: Within approximately 3 years

PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization \[Visit 0 (Day 1)\] to the earliest date of first documented progression per RECIST 1.1 or death due to any cause.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Overall survival (OS)(Within approximately 3 years)
  • Clinical benefit rate (CBR)(Within approximately 3 years)
  • Duration of response (DoR) in subjects with an objective response(Within approximately 3 years)
  • Objective response rate (ORR)(Within approximately 3 years)
  • Time to response (TTR) in subjects with an objective response(Within approximately 3 years)
  • Quality of Life (QoL) evaluated using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast Cancer-Endocrine Subscale (FACT B-ES)(Within approximately 3 years)
  • Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs(Within approximately 3 years)

Athira Pharma Secures $236 Million Financing and Exclusive Rights to Lasofoxifene for ESR1-Mutant Metastatic Breast Cancer- Athira Pharma acquired exclusive global licensing rights to lasofoxifene, a selective estrogen receptor modulator in Phase 3 development for ESR1-mutant metastatic breast cancer. - The company secured $236 million in total financing, including $90 million upfront and up to $146 million through warrants, to support development through regulatory milestones. - Lasofoxifene demonstrated promising Phase 2 results with 13 months progression-free survival in heavily pretreated patients and targets approximately 40% of breast cancer patients who develop ESR1 mutations. - The ongoing Phase 3 ELAINE-3 trial is more than 50% enrolled with topline data expected in mid-2027, potentially establishing a new standard of care for this genetically defined patient population.Lasofoxifene Shows Promise in Improving Urogenital Symptoms for ESR1-Mutated Breast Cancer PatientsA new analysis from the ELAINE-1 Phase 2 trial reveals that lasofoxifene improved vaginal and vulvar symptoms in patients with ESR1-mutated metastatic breast cancer, while fulvestrant did not. The study, published in Clinical Breast Cancer, demonstrates potential quality-of-life benefits alongside previously reported efficacy data for this investigational therapy.Sermonix and Henlius Initiate Phase 3 ELAINE-3 Trial in China for Lasofoxifene Plus Abemaciclib in Advanced Breast Cancer- Sermonix and Henlius have dosed the first Chinese patient in the Phase 3 ELAINE-3 trial, evaluating lasofoxifene plus abemaciclib. - The ELAINE-3 trial (NCT05696626) assesses the efficacy of oral lasofoxifene combined with abemaciclib versus fulvestrant plus abemaciclib. - This global study includes pre- and post-menopausal women with locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer harboring ESR1 mutations. - Lasofoxifene's potential to improve outcomes in patients with endocrine resistance due to ESR1 mutations is being explored in this trial.
