Optional: Left over biospecimens (for example, blood and tissue samples) after analyses may be stored for future research uses from subjects who have consented and provided it is not prohibited by local laws and Ethics Committees. No additional samples will be collected except for those listed above. The samples will be stored for up to 10 years and destroyed after that. The samples may undergo genetic tests, tests for biomarkers, and other tests specific for the indication. It is the responsibility of the Investigator, or a person designated by the Investigator (if acceptable under local regulations), to obtain written informed consent from each individual who has consented to have their biospecimens stored for future research. Subjects must receive an explanation that they are completely free to refuse long-term storage of their samples for future research and may withdraw their sample at any time and for any reason during the 10 year storage period of the specimen(s), unless their sample has been retained in a anonymized manner (in which case it can no longer be identified as relating to the subject). |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary endpoint of the study will be to assess the proportion of subjects with CB Response at 16 weeks (CR+PR+SD) in subjects with TNBC and centrally confirmed AR+ who receive at least one dose of study drug (evaluable subjects).
CB in a subject is defined as a CR, a PR, or SD as measured by RECIST 1.1 and confirmed by central review. These measurements will be confirmed by a central image-reading facility.

E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
• To estimate the proportion of women with TNBC regardless of central confirmation of AR status (FAS) who achieve CB at 16 weeks in response to treatment with 18 mg doses of GTx-024 The following secondary efficacy outcome measures apply to both the evaluable subset of the FAS as well as to the FAS: • To estimate the proportion of women with TNBC who achieve CB at 24 weeks in response to treatment with 18 mg doses of GTx-024 • To assess ORR in subjects treated with GTx-024 18 mg. ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with a CR or PR at 16 and 24 weeks as measured by RECIST 1.1. For subjects with non-measurable (non-target) disease only at baseline, ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with a CR at 16 and 24 weeks as measured by RECIST 1.1 • To assess BOR in subjects treated with GTx-024 18 mg as measured by RECIST 1.1 and defined as: The best overall response is the best response recorded from the start of the study treatment until the end of treatment taking into account any requirement for confirmation. For subjects with non-measurable (non-target) disease only at baseline, SD will be defined as those with non-CR/non-PD combined response • To assess PFS in subjects treated with GTx-024 18 mg. PFS is defined as the time elapsed between treatment initiation and tumor progression as measured by RECIST 1.1 or death • To assess TTP in subjects treated with GTx-024 18 mg. TTP is defined as the time elapsed between treatment initiation and tumor progression as measured by RECIST 1.1 or death due to disease progression • To assess duration of response (time from documentation of tumor response to disease progression or death) in subjects treated with GTx-024 18 mg • To assess overall Survival: Median OS and 95% confidence intervals will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and the survival function and associated 95% confidence intervals will be constructed at key time points. Follow up will be up to 24 months post treatment initiation for each subject and subjects alive at that time will be censored. |
