What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This is a multicenter, multi-arm, biomarker-stratified trial designed to evaluate biomarker-directed therapies in patients with estrogen receptor-positive/hormone receptor-negative (ER+/HR-) and triple-negative (TN) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The trial integrates both retrospective and prospective data collection, including archival tumor tissue, medical record abstraction, and prospective tumor and blood sampling prior to initiation of protocol directed treatment. Based on biomarker subtype, participants will receive standard of care therapy. Liquid biopsy will be collected on Cycle 2 Day 1, and then liquid biopsy, imaging and clinical data will be collected at each re-staging. Treatment will continue until discontinuation for progression, toxicity or at the discretion of the treating physician.

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for adults over 18 with metastatic breast cancer that's either estrogen receptor-positive/hormone receptor-negative or triple-negative. They must be able to follow the study plan and have an ECOG performance status of 0-2, meaning they can care for themselves and are up and about more than half of the day.

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

  • Antiandrogen
  • Capecitabine
  • SERD* + abemaciclib
  • SERD* + everolimus
  • SERD* + everolimus or capecitabine

Trial Overview

The trial tests different combinations of drugs (SERD* with abemaciclib, everolimus, capecitabine) against standard treatments based on tumor biomarkers in patients. It includes collecting data from past treatments, current medical records, tumor tissue samples, and blood tests before starting treatment.
