Clinical study to evaluate the activity and safety of Aromatase inhibitors administered together with Abemaciclib in patients with advanced breast cancer after treatment with high-dose Fulvestrant.

A Phase 2, open label, multicenter, single arm trial evaluating the activity and safety of Abemaciclib + Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs) after 1st-line treatment with High-Dose Fulvestrant in Hormone-Receptor-Positive (HR+), Human-Epidermal-Growth-factor-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer patients. The HERMIONE-7 trial - Hermione-7

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patient has a known hypersensitivity to any of the excipients of Abemaciclib or letrozole/anastrozole 2. Patient who received any CDK4/6 inhibitor 3. Patient who received > 1 prior systemic hormonal therapy for advanced breast cancer; the only admitted previous therapy as 1st-line treatment is HD FUL. Note: Patients who received >= 28 days of letrozole or anastrozole for advanced disease prior to inclusion in this trial are eligible. 4. Patient who has not had resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior anti-cancer therapy to NCI CTCAE version 4.03 Grade = 25% (Ellis RE 1961) of the bone marrow has been previously irradiated are also excluded. 7. Patient has a concurrent malignancy or malignancy within 3 years prior to starting study drug, with the exception of treated, basal or squamous cell carcinoma, non melanomatous skin cancer or curatively resected cervical cancer. 8. Patient with central nervous system (CNS) metastases unless they meet ALL of the following criteria: a. At least 4 weeks from prior therapy for CNS disease completion (including radiation and/or surgery) to starting the study treatment b. Clinically stable CNS lesions at the time of study treatment initiation and not receiving steroids and/or enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic medications for the management of brain metastases for at least 2 weeks 9. Patient has impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of the study drugs (e.g., uncontrolled ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection, or preexisting Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, or a preexisting chronic condition resulting in baseline Grade 2 or higher diarrhea) 10. Patient has a known history of HIV infection (testing not mandatory) 11. The patient has serious preexisting medical condition(s) that, in the judgment of the investigator, would preclude participation in this study (such as severe renal impairment, [for example, estimated creatinine clearance 30 days prior to randomization are eligible. Any patient with a history of VTE (for example, DVT of the leg or arm and/or PE) will be excluded

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To describe the activity of Abemaciclib with aromatase inhibitors (letrozole or anastrozole) in high dose fulvesartan (HD-FUL) pre-treated metastatic breast cancer patients in terms of clinical benefit rate (CBR).;Secondary Objective: •To evaluate the efficacy in terms of Time To Progression (TTP) •To evaluate the efficacy in terms of Overall Response Rate (ORR) •To estimate Duration of Overall Response (DoOR) •To evaluate duration of Clinical Benefit (DoCB) •To assess the safety profile of Abemaciclib in association with aromatase inhibitors (letrozole or anastrozole) •To evaluate the activity of Abemaciclib with aromatase inhibitors according to the duration of previous HD-FUL treatment;Primary end point(s): Clinical benefit rate (CBR) is defined as the proportion of patients in Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR) or with Stable Disease (SD) >= 24 weeks (as defined by RECIST 1.1 Criteria) evaluated at 6 months from treatment initiation.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 months from treatment initiation.
