简要总结
This is an international, multi-center, randomised, open label, superiority phase III trial of elacestrant vs standard endocrine therapy in patients with ER+/HER2- breast cancer and ctDNA relapse.
During the ctDNA screening phase, patients will be tested at different timepoints to detect the presence of ctDNA in their blood.
Patients who are found to be ctDNA-positive and have no evidence of distant metastasis, will be randomised 1:1 between standard endocrine treatment (the same they were receiving when tested ctDNA positive) versus elacestrant, provided they meet all eligibility criteria. After completion of the protocol treatment period, treatment will be left at the discretion of the treating physician.
详细描述
International, multi-center, randomised, open label, superiority phase III trial of elacestrant vs standard endocrine therapy in patients with ER+/HER2- breast cancer and ctDNA relapse.
- ctDNA screening phase: After verification of the eligibility criteria for screening, patients will enter the ctDNA screening phase of the study in which plasma samples will be collected and tested with ctDNA assay to detect the presence of ctDNA. The test will be performed every 6 months from study entry until the end of accrual (approximately 5.7 years). During the screening phase, patients will be treated with standard adjuvant endocrine therapy [either tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor (exemestane, anastrozole or letrozole)] and followed-up as per standard of care. The outcome of the serial ctDNA assessments performed during the screening phase will be disclosed to investigators.
Patients who are found to be ctDNA-negative at the end of the screening period will not be followed further in this study.
Patients who are found to be ctDNA-positive at one of the screening time points will undergo an imaging work-up to assess the presence of distant metastases.
Patients for whom the imaging work-up confirms no evidence of distant metastases or locoregional recurrence will be eligible for the randomised phase of the study provided they meet all other eligibility criteria. Patients for whom the imaging work-up shows evidence of distant metastases or locoregional recurrence will be excluded. 2. Randomised trial:
