About this trial

This study is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled Phase III clinical trial. Building upon anti-HER2 targeted therapy combined with endocrine therapy, the addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors has demonstrated greater clinical benefits for advanced TPBC patients. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of CDK4/6 inhibitor combination with standard adjuvant endocrine therapy in HR+/HER2+ early breast cancer patients.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Females aged ≥18 and ≤70 years.

ECOG systemic status grade 0 to 1.

Histologically confirmed invasive HR+/HER2+ breast cancer (Specific definition: breast cancer patients whose estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) are all determined to be positive by pathologic testing. Specifically: ER positive: IHC>10%, PR positive: IHC>10%, HER2 positive: IHC+++ or IHC++ but amplified by FISH.

Early-stage breast cancer after radical mastectomy with postoperative pathology consistent with TNM staging of ≥pN1 ; or postoperative pathology suggestive of non-pCR after neoadjuvant therapy; or postoperative pathology suggestive of pCR after neoadjuvant therapy but with clinical staging consistent with cT4 or N3 before neoadjuvant therapy

Disqualifiers

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

5-years Invasive disease free survival

5-year invasive disease-free survival (iDFS), defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of: local recurrence, distant metastasis, contralateral invasive breast cancer, death from any cause.

Time frame
5 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Distant Recurrence-Free Survival (DRFS)

DRFS is defined as the time interval from the start of cancer treatment to the first occurrence of distant metastasis or death from any cause.

Time frame
5 years
2

Overall Survival (OS)

OS is defined as the time from randomisation until the date of death due to any cause.

Time frame
Approximately 5 years
3

Safety including adverse events (AEs), severe adverse events (SAEs) and adverse events of special interest (AESI).

Incidence of AEs, SAE, AESIs (interstitial lung disease, LVEF decrease), AEs resulting in study intervention interruption and discontinuation, etc.

Time frame
Up to approximately 3 years
4

Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO)

Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) refers to a report that comes directly from the patient on her health status, functional status, and experience of treatment, without interpretation by healthcare or other personnel (e.g., symptoms, quality of life, physical functioning, etc.), and is usually collected through standardized questionnaires or scales. Lower scores in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer(EORTC) QLQ-BR45 questionnaire will mean a better outcome.

Time frame
Up to approximately 3 years
