Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To demonstrate the efficacy of sabizabulin in the treatment of ER+HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC) as measured by progression free survival (PFS) by RECIST v1.1.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Sabizabulin
  • Drug: Exemestane monotherapy, exemestane plus everolimus, or selective estrogen receptor modulator
Phase 2

Detailed Description

This study is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, two treatment arm, efficacy and safety study. Subjects will be randomized to the two treatment arms in a 1:1 fashion.

The primary efficacy endpoint of the study will be the median PFS by RECIST v1.1.

Subjects will continue study treatment until disease progression confirmed by blinded independent central reader (BICR) is observed. A safety follow up visit will occur approximately 30 days after last dose of study drug.
