Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase III, randomized, open-label multicenter study that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of giredestrant compared with fulvestrant, both in combination with the investigator's choice of a CDK4/6 inhibitor (palbociclib, ribociclib or abemaciclib), in participants with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer who have developed resistance to adjuvant endocrine therapy.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Giredestrant + Investigator's Choice of CDK4/6i Participants in the experimental arm will receive giredestrant plus the investigator's choice of CDK4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i): palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib. |
Drug: Giredestrant
Giredestrant 30 milligrams (mg) orally (PO) once a day (QD) on Days 1-28 of each 28-day cycle until progressive disease (PD) or unacceptable toxicity.
Other Names:
Drug: Abemaciclib
If chosen by the investigator as the CDK4/6i, participants will receive abemaciclib 150 mg PO twice per day (BID) on Days 1-28 of each 28-day cycle until PD or unacceptable toxicity.
Drug: Palbociclib
If chosen by the investigator as the CDK4/6i, participants will receive palbociclib 125 mg PO QD on Days 1-21 of each 28-day cycle until PD or unacceptable toxicity.
Drug: Ribociclib
If chosen by the investigator as the CDK4/6i, participants will receive ribociclib 600 mg PO QD on Days 1-21 of each 28-day cycle until PD or unacceptable toxicity.
Drug: LHRH Agonist
Only pre/perimenopausal female participants and male participants will receive a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist locally approved for use in breast cancer on Day 1 of each 28-day treatment cycle.
Diagnostic Test: FoundationOne Liquid CDx Assay (F1LCDx)
F1LCDx is a next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based in vitro diagnostic test that detects and analyses genomic alterations in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) isolated from plasma derived from the anti-coagulated peripheral whole blood of cancer patients. It will be used to determine the eligibility of participants requiring confirmation of ESR1 mutation status (mutation detected [ESR1m] vs. no mutation detected [ESR1nmd]).

Drug: LHRH Agonist

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in the ESR1 mutation (ESR1m) Subgroup [From randomization to first occurrence of progressive disease (PD) or death (up to 5 years)]
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of PD, as determined by the investigator according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1), or death from any cause during the study.
- PFS in the Full Analysis Set (FAS) Population [From randomization to first occurrence of PD or death (up to 5 years)]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- PFS in the ESR1 no-mutation-detected (ESR1nmd) Subgroup [From randomization to first occurrence of PD or death (up to 5 years)]
- Overall Survival (OS) [From randomization until death from any cause (up to 5 years)]
OS is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. It will be analyzed in the FAS and in the ESR1m and ESR1nmd subgroups.
- Confirmed Objective Response Rate (cORR) [From randomization until treatment discontinuation (up to 5 years)]
The cORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) on two consecutive occasions at least 4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1. It will be analyzed in the FAS and in the ESR1m and ESR1nmd subgroups.
- Duration of Response (DOR) [From the first occurrence of a documented objective response to PD or death (up to 5 years)]
DOR is defined as the time from the first occurrence of a documented objective response to PD, as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause (whichever occurs first). It will be analyzed in the FAS and in the ESR1m and ESR1nmd subgroups.
