Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Documentation of histopathologically or cytologically confirmed ER+, HER2-breast cancer, per local laboratory, as per the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)/College of American Pathologists (CAP) guidelines (Allison et al, 2020, Wolff et al, 2018). Note: In the context of this trial, ER status will be considered positive if ≥10% of tumor cells demonstrate positive nuclear staining by immunohistochemistry.
In absence of liver metastases, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤3.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN). If the patient has liver metastases, ALT and AST ≤5 × ULN
Must not have
Investigational anti-cancer therapy within 14 days (28 days in case of anticancer antibody-based treatments) or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter.
Uncontrolled significant active infections.

Summary

This trial looks at how well a drug works and how safe it is for advanced breast cancer patients who haven't had prior treatment.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women over 18 with ER+/HER2- advanced/metastatic breast cancer who haven't had CDK4/6 inhibitors before. Participants must have received up to two prior hormone therapies, have certain blood and organ function levels, possibly be on LHRH agonists if premenopausal or perimenopausal, and not be planning major surgery or other specific treatments.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of a drug called Elacestrant over six months in patients with a specific type of breast cancer that has spread. It aims to see how well this drug works when no previous CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy was given in the metastatic setting.
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial information doesn't list specific side effects for Elacestrant, common ones for similar drugs include nausea, fatigue, hot flashes, joint pain, headache, increased risk of infections due to low white blood cell counts.
