E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess the treatment effect of BKM120 once daily plus fulvestrant versus BKM120 matching placebo once daily plus fulvestrant on progression-free survival (PFS) |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To evaluate BKM120 once daily plus fulvestrant versus BKM120 matching placebo once daily plus fulvestrant with respect to
• Overall survival (OS)
• Overall response rate (ORR)
• Clinical benefit rate (CBR)
Safety
• To characterize the pharmacokinetics of BKM120 given in combination with fulvestrant

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
To determine whether treatment with PFS in the main study cohort
(known PI3K status) regardless of PI3K pathway activation status
and/or full population (main study cohort + PI3K unknown cohort) (full
population) or PI3K pathway activated sub-population. |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
every 6 weeks after randomisation and then every 8 weeks |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
- OS, defined as time from date of randomization to the date of death from any cause
- ORR, defined as the proportion of patients with best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as defined in Appendix 6 (RECIST 1.1)
- Clinical benefit rate (CBR) is defined as the proportion of patients with best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) lasting more than 24 weeks as defined in Appendix 6 (RECIST 1.1)
- Safety: Type, frequency and severity of adverse events per CTCAEv4.03; type, frequency and severity of laboratory toxicities per CTCAEv4.03
- Summary statistics for PK: plasma concentration-time profiles of BKM120 and fulvestrant appropriate PK parameters |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
- every 3 months after end of treatment OS
- estimated 6 weeks after randomisation ORR
- estimated 6 weeks after randomisation CBR
