Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To compare progression-free survival between LEE011 in combination with letrozole to placebo plus letrozole among postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative, advanced breast cancer who received no prior therapy for advanced disease.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Key secondary:
    - To compare the two treatment arms with respect to overall survival.

    Other secondary:
    • To evaluate the two treatment arms with respect to overall response rate and clinical benefit rate
    • To evaluate the two treatment arms with respect to time to deterioration of ECOG performance status
    • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of LEE011 in combination with letrozole
    • To evaluate patient reported outcomes for health-related quality of life in the two treatment arms
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Women with advanced (recurrent or metastatic) breast cancer who received no prior therapy for advanced disease.
    2. Patient is postmenopausal. Postmenopausal status is defined either by:
    • Prior bilateral oophorectomy
    • Age ≥60
    • Age <60 and amenorrhea for 12 or more months (in the absence of chemotherapy, tamoxifen, toremifen, or ovarian suppression) and FSH and estradiol in the postmenopausal range per local normal range
    Note: For women with therapy-induced amenorrhea, serial measurements of FSH and/or estradiol are needed to ensure postmenopausal status (NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2014). Ovarian radiation or treatment with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist (LH-RHa) (goserelin acetate or leuprolide acetate) is not permitted for induction of ovarian suppression in this trial.
    3. Patient has a histologically and/or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of estrogen-receptor positive and/or progesterone receptor positive breast cancer by local laboratory.
    4. Patient has HER2-negative breast cancer defined as a negative in situ hybridization test or an IHC status of 0, 1+ or 2+. If IHC is 2+, a negative in situ hybridization (FISH, CISH, or SISH) test is required by local laboratory testing.
    5. Patient must have either:
    • Measurable disease, i.e., at least one measurable lesion as per RECIST
    1.1 criteria (tumor lesions previously irradiated or subjected to ther
    locoregional therapy will only be considered measurable if disease
    progression at the treated site after completion of therapy is clearly
    documented) or,
    • If no measurable disease is present, then at least one predominantly
    lytic bone lesion must be present (patients with no measurable disease
    and only one predominantly lytic bone lesion that has been previously
    irradiated are eligible if there is documented evidence of disease
    progression of the bone lesion after irradiation)
    6. Patient has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1

    Other inclusion criteria as defined by protocol may apply.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Patient who received any CDK4/6 inhibitor.
    2. Patient who received any prior systemic anti-cancer therapy (including hormonal therapy and chemotherapy) for advanced breast
    cancer.
    Note:
    • Patients who received (neo) adjuvant therapy for breast cancer are eligible. If the prior (neo) adjuvant therapy included letrozole or anastrozole the disease free interval must be greater than 12 months
    from the completion of treatment until randomization.
    • Patients who received ≤ 14 daysof letrozole or anastrazole for
    advanced disease prior to randomization are eligible
    • Any prior (neo) adjuvant anti-cancer therapy must be stopped at least
    5 half lives or 7 days, whichever is longer, before randomization
    3. Patient is currently receiving any of the following medications and
    cannot be discontinued 7 days prior to the start of the treatment:
    • That are known strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4/5.
    • That have a known risk to prolong the QT interval or induce Torsades de Pointes.
    • That have a narrow therapeutic window and are predominantly metabolized through CYP3A4/5.
    • herbal preparations/medications
    4. Patient has a concurrent malignancy or malignancy within 3 years of randomization, with the exception of adequately treated, basal or squamous cell carcinoma, non-melanomatous skin cancer or curatively resected cervical cancer.
    5. Patient has active cardiac disease or a history of cardiac dysfunction including any of the following:
    • History of angina pectoris, symptomatic pericarditis, or myocardial infarction within 12 months prior to study entry
    • History of documented congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association
    functional classification III-IV)
    • Documented cardiomyopathy
    • Patient has a Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) < 50% as determined by
    Multiple Gated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiogram (ECHO)
    • History of any cardiac arrhythmias, e.g., ventricular, supraventricular, nodal
    arrhythmias, or conduction abnormality in the previous 12 months.
    • On screening, any of the following cardiac parameters: bradycardia (heart rate < 50 at rest), tachycardia (heart rate > 90 at rest), PR interval > 220 msec, QRS interval >109 msec, or QTcF >450 msec.
    • Systolic blood pressure >160 or <90 mmHg

    Other exclusion criteria as defined by protocol may apply.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)

    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    up to approximately 25 months
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
