Experimental Treatment
Group I: Investigational TreatmentExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
71 subjects will be enrolled to determine progression-free survival (PFS) in subjects with HR(+)/HER2(-) advanced breast cancer who have not received prior systemic anti-cancer therapies. Palbociclib 125 mg will be administered orally once daily on days D1-D21 of each 28-day cycle. Subjects will not take palbociclib on D22-D28. Tamoxifen 20 mg will be administered orally once daily for every day of the 28-day cycle (i.e., continuously).
