Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug combo on patients with HR+/Her2- breast cancer that has spread to the brain.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for post-menopausal women with HR+/Her2- breast cancer that has spread to the brain. They can have had up to two chemotherapy treatments for advanced disease but must be recovered from major treatment effects. Participants need good organ function, no severe medical conditions, and not be on other investigational drugs. They cannot have used Abemaciclib or Elacestrant before.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of Abemaciclib and Elacestrant in patients whose breast cancer has metastasized to the brain. It's an open-label Phase Ib/II trial allowing prior endocrine therapy use, aiming to assess the effectiveness and safety of this drug combo.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include fatigue, digestive issues, blood disorders, hormonal imbalances due to endocrine therapy interference, possible neurological symptoms related to brain metastasis treatment, and general discomfort from taking oral medications.
