Ribociclib for HR-positive HER2-negative Metastatic Breast Cancer

연구 개요

This document outlines an investigator-initiated Phase Ib/II clinical trial in Japan, focusing on the combination therapy of ribociclib and anastrozole for patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR-positive), HER2-negative metastatic or recurrent breast cancer. The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy (specifically, overall response rate) and safety of this combination in the Japanese patient population. Nagoya City University is the sponsor of this trial, with funding provided by Novartis Pharma K.K.. Study Design and Endpoints: The trial is structured into two parts: * Phase Ib: The primary endpoint for this phase is tolerability, which is assessed by dose-limiting toxicities (DLT). Secondary endpoints include pharmacokinetics (PK) of the drugs, as well as the incidence of adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE). * Phase II: The primary endpoint for Phase II is the Overall Response Rate (ORR), which will be determined by a blinded central imaging review based on RECIST version 1.1 criteria. Secondary endpoints encompass PK (for the initial 20 patients), ORR as assessed by the investigator, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and the overall incidence of adverse events
