Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: -The participant is 18 years of age (or per local regulations). -The participant has confirmed HR+, HER2-, early stage resected invasive breast cancer without evidence of distant metastases. -The participant must have undergone definitive surgical treatment for the current malignancy. -The participant must have tumor tissue for biomarker analysis available prior to randomization. -The participant must have axillary lymph node involvement by tumor and have one of the following indicating a higher risk of relapse: -4 or more axillary lymph nodes involved with cancer -Tumor size of at least 5 centimeters -Grade 3 histology -Ki67 index by central analysis of 20% (for study cohort 2) -The participant must be randomized within 12 weeks of completion of last non-endocrine treatment. -If the participant is currently receiving or initiating standard adjuvant endocrine therapy at time of study entry, she/he must not have received more than 8 weeks prior to randomization. -Participants must have recovered from the acute effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy and from surgical side effects following definitive breast surgery. -Women regardless of menopausal status. -Women of reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test and agree to use highly effective contraceptive methods. -The participant has a Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 1. -The participant has adequate organ function. -The participant is able to swallow oral medications.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Stage IV (M1) disease (American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC] TNM Staging System for breast cancer - 7th edition). -Stage IA disease (AJCC TNM Staging System for breast cancer - 7th edition). -The participant has a history of any other cancer (except non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix), unless in complete remission with no therapy for a minimum of 5 years. -Females who are pregnant or lactating. -The participant has previously received treatment with any CDK4 and CDK6 inhibitor. -The participant is receiving concurrent exogenous hormone therapy (for example, birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy). -The participant has previously received endocrine therapy for breast cancer prevention (tamoxifen or raloxifene or aromatase inhibitors). -The participant has serious preexisting medical condition(s) that, in the judgment of the investigator, would preclude participation in this study. -The participant has a personal history of any of the following conditions: syncope of cardiovascular etiology, ventricular arrhythmia of pathological origin or sudden cardiac arrest. -The participant has active bacterial infection, fungal infection, or detectable viral infection. -The participant has received an experimental treatment in a clinical trial within the last 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer.
