| Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is: •To assess the efficacy of reparixin compared to placebo in limiting CRF in adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer undergoing single-agent taxane chemotherapy (paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel or docetaxel), using FACIT-Fatigue scale. ;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are: •To evaluate change in Quality of Life in the two treatment arms. •To assess the percentage of patients treated with reparixin compared to placebo delaying and discontinuing chemotherapy. •To assess PGI-S score and Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) score associated with reparixin compared to placebo. •To assess the effect of reparixin compared to placebo on ECOG PS. •To assess the effects of reparixin vs placebo on Objective Response Rate (ORR), Progression Free Survival (PFS), Overall Survival (OS). The safety objective is: •To assess the safety and tolerability of reparixin in adult patients undergoing taxane-containing chemotherapy The pharmacokinetic (PK) objective is: •To define the PK profile of orally administered reparixin, its metabolites (DF2243Y, DF2188Y, ibuprofen) and concomitant antineoplastic agents (paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel or docetaxel) in adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. ;Primary end point(s): Primary Efficacy Assessment Change from baseline in FACIT-F score [Time frame: week 16] FACIT-F will be administered weekly. It consists of 13 items (that are responded to by affirming one of five Likert-type response categories (‘‘not at all,’’ ‘‘a little bit,’’ ‘‘somewhat,’’ ‘‘quite a bit,’’ and ‘‘very much’’). The instrument yields a summed total score ranging between 0 and 52 (52 = no fatigue at all). Safety endpoints •Physical examination (Body weight, height, body surface area and assessments of the head, eyes, ears, nose, throat, skin, thyroid, neurological, lungs, cardiovascular system, abdomen, lymph nodes and extremities) [time frame: day 1 of each c | — |

| Secondary end point(s): 2.Secondary Efficacy Assessment •Change from baseline in FACIT-F score [Time frame: week 4, 8 and 12] •EQ-5D-5L score [Time frame: day 1 of each 21- or 28-day cycle, off treatment visit (or withdrawal)] The EQ-5D consists of 2 pages: the EQ-5D descriptive system and the EQ visual analogue scale (EQ VAS). The descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. This decision results in a 1-digit number that expresses the level selected for that dimension. The digits for the five dimensions can be combined into a 5-digit number that describes the patient’s health state. The EQ VAS records the patient’s self-rated health on a vertical visual analogue scale, where the endpoints are labelled ‘The best health you can imagine’ and ‘The worst health you can imagine’. The VAS can be used as a quantitative measure of health outcome that reflect the patient’s own judgement. •Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) score [Time frame: day 1 of each 21- or 28-day cycle, off treatment visit (or withdrawal)] The PGI-S is a single item designed to capture subject’s perception of overall symptom severity at the time of completion on a 5-point categorical response scale: “Please choose the response below that best describes the severity of your fatigue over the past week” and is scored from 1 to 5, with 1 indicating “None”, 2 “Mild”, 3 “Moderate”, 4 “Severe”, 5 “Very Severe” •Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) score [Time frame: day 1 of each 21- or 28-day cycle except for cycle 1 , off treatment visit (or withdrawal)] The PGI-C is a single item designed to capture the subject’s perception of change in their overall symp | — |
