Study Summary

This trial will study the safety and effectiveness of the drug GDC-9545 as a treatment for people with a certain type of breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for postmenopausal women with advanced or metastatic ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer. Participants should have an ECOG Performance Status ≤1, no more than two prior treatments for their condition, and adequate organ function. They must not have had certain recent surgeries or therapies, severe medical conditions that could affect safety or results, known HIV infection, significant heart disease risks, untreated brain metastases, or a history of certain malignancies within the last three years.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests GDC-9545's effectiveness and safety alone and in combination with palbociclib and/or LHRH agonist in treating estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. It will assess how the body processes these drugs (PK), their impact on the body (PD), and preliminary anti-tumor activity through various stages including dose escalation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions to hormone therapies such as hot flashes, fatigue, joint pain; from palbociclib like low white blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk; gastrointestinal issues; possible liver function changes; and other common medication-related adverse events.

GDC-9545 will be administered to postmenopausal participants at a pre-defined dose level (Dose 2) as a single agent for 14 days, followed by treatment with either GDC-9545 (Dose 2) plus palbociclib or GDC-9545 (Dose 2) alone for the duration of the study, as determined by the investigator.
Group IV: Dose Expansion: Cohort B2: GDC-9545 + Palbociclib + LHRHExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
GDC-9545 will be administered to pre- or perimenopausal participants, at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD, in combination with the label-recommended dose of palbociclib and an approved LHRH agonist.
Group V: Dose Expansion: Cohort B1: GDC-9545 + PalbociclibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
GDC-9545 will be administered to postmenopausal participants, at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD, in combination with the label-recommended dose of palbociclib.
Group VI: Dose Expansion: Cohort A5: GDC-9545 Dose 3Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
GDC-9545 will be administered to postmenopausal participants as a single-agent at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD (Dose 3).
Group VII: Dose Expansion: Cohort A4: GDC-9545 Dose 2 + LHRHExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
GDC-9545 will be administered to pre- or perimenopausal participants at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD (Dose 2) in combination with an LHRH agonist.
Group VIII: Dose Expansion: Cohort A3: GDC-9545 Dose 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
GDC-9545 will be administered to postmenopausal participants as a single-agent at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD (Dose 2).
Group IX: Dose Expansion: Cohort A2: GDC-9545 Dose 1 + LHRHExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
GDC-9545 will be administered to pre- or perimenopausal participants at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD (Dose 1) in combination with an approved LHRH agonist.
Group X: Dose Expansion: Cohort A1: GDC-9545 Dose 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
GDC-9545 will be administered to postmenopausal participants as a single-agent at a dose that is less than or equal to the MTD/MAD (Dose 1).
Group XI: Dose Escalation: GDC-9545Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
During dose escalation, postmenopausal participants will be assigned sequentially to escalating doses of GDC-9545, up to the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD).
Group XII: Dose Escalation: Cohort B0: GDC-9545 + PalbociclibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
GDC-9545 will be administered to postmenopausal participants, at a dose lower than the MTD or MAD determined in single-agent dose escalation, in combination with the label-recommended dose of palbociclib.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

How many geographical areas is this research taking place in?

"Currently, 6 medical facilities are running this clinical trial; these sites can be found in New york, Aurora and Nashville as well as other cities. To reduce the amount of travelling needed to take part in the study, it is best to pick a location close by."

Answered by AI

Are there any other research endeavors that have incorporated GDC-9545 into their protocols?

"Currently, 16 trials are in Phase 3 and 133 research initiatives concerning GDC-9545 remain underway. The majority of the studies for GDC-9545 center around Burgas, New jersey, though there is a total of 6577 sites running related clinical experiments."

Answered by AI

What has GDC-9545 been indicated to ameliorate?

"GDC-9545 is an efficient treatment for breast cancer and other neoplasms, postmenopausal symptoms, as well as advanced directives."

Answered by AI

Has GDC-9545 gained regulatory clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration?

"The safety score for GDC-9545 is estimated to be 1 as per the evaluation conducted by our Power team. This assessment takes into consideration that this clinical trial is in its initial phase, with limited data available on both efficacy and security."

Answered by AI

What is the current number of participants in this research project?

"At this juncture, this clinical trial is not enrolling any new patients. The investigation was first posted on 27 November 2017 and the most recent update to the entry happened 28 October 2022. If you are in search of other trials, there are currently 2600 studies for breast cancer recruitment and 133 seeking participants for GDC-9545."

Answered by AI

Is the research team looking for participants at this time?

"This particular clinical trial is currently not recruiting participants. Initially posted on November 27th 2017, the latest update to this study was recorded on October 28th 2022.
