Phase III Study of Palbociclib in Combination With Exemestane or Fulvestrant vs. Chemotherapy (Capecitabine) in Hormonal Receptor Positive/HER2 Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients With Resistance to Aromatase Inhibitors
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Palbociclib, Capecitabine, and 2 other interventions for Metastatic Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 693 participants across 37 sites in 4 countries.
Detailed Summary
This is an international (4 countries) randomized phase III study with 2 cohorts, patients will be randomized 1:1 to endocrine therapy (cohort 1: exemestane 25 mg daily, cohort 2: fulvestrant 500mg days 1 and 15 cycle 1 and then day 1 every 4 weeks) plus palbociclib (125 mg daily x3 weeks every 4 weeks) vs. capecitabine (1,250 mg/m2 twice daily x2 weeks every 3 weeks). Postmenopausal patients with HR+/HER2 MBC are eligible if resistant to previous nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors (NSAI) (letrozole or anastrozole) in cohort 1 or previous aromatase inhibitors (AI) (letrozole, anastrozole or exemestane) in cohort 2 defined as: recurrence while on or within 12 months after the end of adjuvant treatment with NSAI/AI or progression while on or within 1 month after the end of treatment with NSAI/AI for MBC. Previous chemotherapy is permitted either in the (neo)adjuvant setting and/or as first line for MBC. Patients must have measurable disease according to RECIST 1.1 or bone lesions, lytic or mixed, in the absence of measurable disease.
