Study summary

The present study will assess real-world clinical outcomes and adverse events from treatment with endocrine therapy combined with abemaciclib in patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

Protocol was amended in November 2021, after the recent FDA approval of abemaciclib in the adjuvant setting. On October 12, 2021, FDA approved abemaciclib with endocrine therapy for the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with hormone receptor -positive, HER2-negative, node-positive, early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence and a Ki-67 score ≥20%. Our study will now include real-world data on efficacy and toxicity of abemaciclib in the adjuvant setting as well. 2-negative advanced breast cancer. Patients who are enrolled and the patients to be enrolled will refer to a dedicated online platform (CARE ACROSS platform) where they can register their side-effects of cancer and the treatment received at frequent intervals. Patients will be randomized in the platform in two arms with an allocation 1:1(automatically by the platform). After every report of their side-effects, patients in Arm A will receive an acknowledgement and suggestion to stay in contact with their clinician. After every report of their side- effects, patients in Arm B will receive an acknowledgment and suggestion to stay in contact with their clinician; additionally they will receive personalised support (as a few word text) for each side-effect reported. Clinicians involved in the trial will refer patients (upon enrollment or to those already enrolled) to a dedicated online platform. Patients will sign up by entering their patient ID and their email address (and picking their password for security).

Study population

Patients with histologically confirmed HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer treated with abemaciclib in combination with endocrine therapy

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • confirmed HR-positive, -negative breast cancer
  • Treated at Hellenic Cooperative Oncology Group (HeCOG)-affiliated departments of oncology
  • 18 years or older
  • Any menopausal status
  • Treatment with abemaciclib in combination with endocrine therapy
  • Any endocrine therapy
  • At least two months of treatment with abemaciclib
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

HER2

HER2 is a protein, made from the ERBB2 gene, that drives the growth of some cancers. A study may look for a level of the protein, extra copies of the gene, or a particular change in it.

In breast cancer, protein tests are read as HER2-positive, HER2-low or HER2-negative; other cancers use their own rules. Check which test result the study requires.

Groups and cohorts

  • Patients with breast cancer randomised in arm A of digital platform

    Patients with breast cancer treated with abemaciclib in combination with endocrine treatment and randomised in Arm A of the digital platform. Patients randomised in arm A will receive a an acknowledgement and suggestion to stay in contact with their clinician.

  • Patients with breast cancer randomised in arm B of digital platform

    Patients with breast cancer treated with abemaciclib in combination with endocrine treatment and randomised in Arm B of the digital platform. Patients randomised in arm A will receive a an acknowledgement and suggestion to stay in contact with their clinician; additionally they will receive personalised support (as a few word text) for each side-effect reported.

This study also gives Abemaciclib. No intervention listed here names it: that was found by reading the record.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression-free survival

    the time from treatment initiation to either the first documented disease progression or death from any cause

    Time frame: Through the completion of the study, for an average of 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall survival

    The time from treatment initiation to patient death or last contact

    Time frame: From date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 96 months

  2. Efficacy of the digital support through personalised support in patients with BC

    Time frame: Up to 30 months

  3. Toxicity rate

    Adverse events from the time from treatment initiation to disease progression, patient death or last contact

    Time frame: Up to 30 months
