Brief summary

This phase 3 clinical trial compares the safety and efficacy of palazestrant (OP-1250) to the standard-of-care options of fulvestrant or an aromatase inhibitor in women and men with breast cancer whose disease has advanced on one endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor.

Detailed description

This is an international, multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, phase 3 clinical trial. The purpose of this trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of palazestrant (OP-1250) as a single agent to the standard of care endocrine therapy: either fulvestrant or an aromatase inhibitor (anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane). This trial is seeking adult participants with ER+, HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose disease has relapsed or progressed on 1 or 2 prior lines of standard-of-care endocrine therapy for metastatic breast cancer. Prior lines of therapy must include one line of endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK 4/6 inhibitor. In the dose-selection part of the trial, approximately 120 participants will be randomized to one of the two doses of palazestrant or to the standard-of-care endocrine therapy. Thereafter, approximately 390 participants will be randomized to palazestrant at the selected dose or to the standard-of-care endocrine therapy.

Interventions

Participants will be treated with palazestrant once daily on a 4 week (28 day) cycle. Doses evaluated in the dose-selection part will be 120 mg once daily and 90 mg once daily.

DRUGFulvestrant

Participants will be treated with fulvestrant on C1D1, C1D15, and then on Day 1 of every subsequent 4 week (28 day) cycle

DRUGAnastrozole

Participants will be treated with anastrozole once daily on a 4 week (28 day) cycle

DRUGLetrozole

Participants will be treated with letrozole once daily on a 4 week (28 day) cycle

DRUGExemestane

Participants will be treated with exemestane once daily on a 4 week (28 day) cycle

Inclusion criteria

Key inclusion criteria: * Adult female or male participants. * ER+, HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer that is not amenable to curative therapy. * Evaluable disease (measurable disease or bone-only disease). * Previously received a CDK4/6 inhibitor in combination with an endocrine therapy in the advanced setting. One additional line of ET as a monotherapy is allowed. Duration of the most recent prior ET must be at least 6 months. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. * Adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal functions. * Female participants can be pre-, peri- or postmenopausal. * Male and pre- or peri-menopausal female participants must be willing to take a GnRH (or LHRH) agonist. Key

Exclusion criteria

* Symptomatic visceral disease, imminent organ failure, or any other reason that makes the participant ineligible for endocrine monotherapy. * Previously received chemotherapy in the advanced/metastatic setting. * Previously received treatment with elacestrant or an investigational estrogen receptor-directed therapy. * History of allergic reactions to study treatment. * Any contraindications to the selected standard-of-care endocrine therapy in the local prescribing information. * Symptomatic central nervous system metastases, carcinomatous meningitis, leptomeningeal disease, or a spinal cord compression that require immediate treatment. * Clinically significant comorbidities such as significant cardiac or cerebrovascular disease, gastrointestinal disorders that could affect absorption of study treatment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Dose-Selection Part: Incidence of adverse eventsFrom Date of Randomization up to 16 weeksTo evaluate the number of participants with adverse events
Dose-Selection Part: Incidence of dose reductionFrom Date of Randomization up to 16 weeksTo evaluate the number of participants reducing the dose of palazestrant
Dose-Selection Part: Incidence of drug discontinuationFrom Date of Randomization up to 16 weeksTo evaluate the number of participants discontinuing palazestrant
Trial: Progression-Free Survival (PFS)From Date of Randomization until Disease Progression or Death Due to Any Cause (estimated as up to 2 years)To compare PFS, based on a Blinded Independent Review Committee (BIRC) assessment, between arms of OP-1250 and standard-of-care treatment. This will be assessed separately in populations of ESR1-mutation detected and ESR1-mutation not detected participants.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Trial: Overall Survival (OS)From Date of Randomization until Death Due to Any Cause (estimated as up to 4 years)To compare OS between arms of OP-1250 and standard-of-care treatment. This will be assessed separately in populations of ESR1 mutation detected and ESR1 mutation not detected participants.
