About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) as a method to delay a change in systemic therapy in patients with oligoprogressive ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer. The main question it aims to answer is to assess whether the addition of SABR to continuation of first line endocrine therapy and CDK 4/6 inhibitor (Arm A) to patients with oligoprogressive ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer could have longer time to treatment failure (TTF) in comparison to physician choice of systemic treatment (Arm B) in patients who had progressed first line.
The treatment strategy in Arm A is to maintain patients on current endocrine therapy and CDK 4/6 inhibitor, controlling localised progressing sites of disease with SABR. Treatment strategy in Arm B is to maintain disease control with physician's choice of systemic therapy alone.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patient has signed the AVATAR-II Patient Information and Consent Form (PICF)
Male or female, ≥ 18 years of age at the time signing consent
Patients with histologically proven ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer receiving an ET in combination with a CDK 4/6 inhibitor. Biopsy of metastatic disease if technically feasible but not mandatory
Patients must have evidence of extracranial metastatic disease, with no evidence of uncontrolled intracranial metastases. (Controlled intracranial metastases are defined as stable disease on repeat CT imaging performed at least one month apart.)
Disqualifiers
Is pregnant or lactating at the time of randomisation
Evidence of more than one clone of metastatic disease e.g., a patient with both ER-positive and triple negative clones of disease and ER-negative and/or HER2-positive disease would be excluded from the study
Evidence of leptomeningeal disease
Evidence of malignant cord compression

Primary outcomes
Primary Outcome Measure
The primary endpoint of this study is to measure the time to treatment failure between Arm A and Arm B. Treatment failure is defined as time from randomisation to progression of disease resulting in a failure of treatment strategy or death by any cause. Progression, will be determined by the Investigator, using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1. (RECIST1.1; Appendix 2) (33) as a guide. The treatment strategy in Arm A is to maintain patients on current ET and CDK 4/6 inhibitor, controlling localised progressing sites of disease with SABR. Treatment strategy in Arm B is to maintain disease control with physician's choice systemic therapy alone.
Secondary outcomes
Secondary Objective 1
To compare PFS; PFS is assessed from randomisation to the date of the first evidence of progression or death by any cause. Progression will be assessed by the treating clinician as part of standard-of-care practice, using RECIST 1.1 as a guide or based on clinical progression.
Secondary Objective 2
To compare progression-free survival 2 (PFS-2); PFS-2 is assessed from randomisation to the date of progression on next line of systemic anti-cancer treatment or death by any cause.
Secondary Objective 3
To compare PFS of next line of treatment (2nd PFS); 2nd PFS is assessed from failure of treatment strategy to progression on next line of systemic anti-cancer treatment or date of death by any cause.
Secondary Objective 4
To compare OS; OS is assessed from randomisation to the date of death by any cause.
