Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study is designed to identify and register practical observations and experiences in connection with planning and implementing decentralized, patient-centered clinical trials at a geographic distance with virtual elements.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Open-label, single arm, multi-center, Phase II interventional pilot trial. Primary objective will be to assess participant satisfaction with the decentralized clinical trial (DCT) experience.

The trial will enroll men and pre- and post-menopausal women with a HR-positive/HER2-negative ABC (loco regionally recurrent not amenable to curative therapy or metastatic) with a PIK3CA mutation, which progressed on or after endocrine-based treatment.

Participants will receive alpelisib 300 mg daily and fulvestrant 500 mg administered intramuscularly on Cycle 1, Day 1 and Cycle 1, Day 15, and on Day 1 of each cycle thereafter until Cycle 12.

Pre-menopausal women will receive goserelin 3.6 mg on Day 1 of each cycle.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: single arm

alpelisib 300 mg daily and fulvestrant 500 mg administered intramuscularly on Cycle 1, Day 1 and Cycle 1, Day 15, and on Day 1 of each cycle thereafter until Cycle 12.

Drug: Alpelisib
Alpelisib 300 mg daily up to 12 cycles of 28 days each

Drug: fulvestrant
fulvestrant 500 mg administered intramuscularly on Cycle 1, Day 1 and Cycle 1, Day 15, and on Day 1 of each cycle thereafter until Cycle 12.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Participant satisfaction with the decentralized clinical trial (DCT) experience [up to 12 months]

    change in the Trial Feedback Questionnaire (TFQ) assessed at the start of the trial, every 12 weeks, and at the end of trial through the Trial Feedback Questionnaire (TFQ)

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Patient retention on DCT [3, 6, 12 months]

    Proportion of participants on remote monitoring at 3, 6, 12 months for participants still on treatment.

  2. Compliance to treatment [up to 12 months]

    Overall compliance

  3. Proportion of participants with AESIs (hyperglicemia, rash and diarrhea) [up to 12 months]

    Adverse events of special interest (AESIs) per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.03

  4. Proportion of participants with AEs leading to in-clinic visits [up to 12 months]

    Adverse events (AEs) that lead to in-clinic visits.

  5. Change from baseline in the EORTC QLQ C30 score. [baseline, 3,6,9,12 months]

    The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer's core quality of life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) contains 30 items and is composed of both multi-item scales and single item measures. These include five functional scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive and social functioning), three symptom scales (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, and pain), six single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea and financial impact) and a global health status/QoL scale.

  6. Progression-free survival (PFS) according to RECIST 1.1 [3,6,9,12 months]

    Effectiveness of alpelisib plus fulvestrant

  7. Total number of unscheduled in-clinic visits because of safety reasons [up to 12 months]

    safe and suitable remote management of patients

  8. Total number of unscheduled in-clinic visits and the reason [up to 12 months]

    safe and suitable remote management of patients

  9. Number of unscheduled in-clinic visits per participant in the study [up to 12 months]

    safe and suitable remote management of patients

  10. Discontinuation rate related to adverse events [up to 12 months]

    safe and suitable remote management of patients

  11. Number and proportion of AEs leading to in-clinic visits [up to 12 months]

    AEs of special interest (AESIs) and AEs leading to in-clinic visits

  12. Change from baseline in the EQ-5D-5L score [baseline, 3,6,9,12 months]

    The 5-level EQ-5D (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire is a standardized measure of health status. The EQ-5D descriptive system comprises of the 5 following 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.

  13. Change from baseline in the BPI-SF score [baseline, 3,6,9,12 months]

    The Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (BPI-SF) is a self-administered assessment tool validated to assess pain The basic aim of the BPI is to provide the information on the intensity of pain, along with the degree to which the pain interferes with the everyday functioning of life. The BPI uses simple numeric rating scales from 0 (no pain) to 10 (severe pain).
