E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To compare the progression-free survival (PFS) benefit of DS-8201a to physician’s choice in HER2-low, hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer, based on blinded independent central review (BICR). |
Confrontare il beneficio di DS-8201a in termini di sopravvivenza libera da progressione (progression-free survival, PFS) rispetto alla scelta del medico nel carcinoma mammario positivo al recettore ormonale (HR) esprimente bassi livelli di HER2, in base alla revisione centrale indipendente in cieco (blinded independent central review, BICR). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
• To investigate the efficacy of DS-8201a compared to physician’s choice on the following parameters: - PFS in HR-positive subjects, based on Investigator assessment - Overall survival (OS) in HR-positive subjects - Confirmed objective response rate (ORR), based on BICR and Investigator assessment in HR-positive subjects - Duration of response (DoR), based on BICR and Investigator assessment in HR-positive subjects - PFS, OS, ORR, and DoR in all subjects, regardless of HR status. • To determine pharmacokinetics (PK) of DS-8201a • To evaluate safety of DS-8201a compared to physician’s choice of treatment • To evaluate Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) endpoints for DS-8201a compared to physician’s choice |
Valutare l’efficacia di DS-8201a rispetto alla scelta del medico sui seguenti parametri: - PFS in soggetti HR-positivi, in base alla valutazione dello sperimentatore; - sopravvivenza complessiva (overall survival, OS) in soggetti HR-positivi; - tasso di risposta obiettiva (objective response rate, ORR) confermata in base alla BICR e alla valutazione dello sperimentatore in soggetti HR-positivi; - durata della risposta (duration of response, DoR) in base alla BICR e alla valutazione dello sperimentatore in soggetti HR-positivi; - PFS, OS, ORR e DoR in tutti i soggetti, indipendentemente dallo stato HR. • Determinare la farmacocinetica (pharmacokinetics, PK) di DS8201a • Valutare la sicurezza di DS8201a rispetto al trattamento scelto dal medico • Valutare gli endpoint di economia sanitaria e ricerca sugli esiti (health economics and outcomes research, HEOR) di DS8201a rispetto al trattamento scelto dal medico
