An observational study in Breast Cancer, sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals. Completed at 3 sites in 3 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 100 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-11-06.
Sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals (part of Novartis) · Observational
This is a non-interventional, ambispective, observational cohort study describing the real-world safety data of approximately 550 Hormone receptor / Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HR+/HER2-) advanced/metastatic breast cancer patients who have received ribociclib combined with hormonal therapy in pre-and postmenopausal women or men in Middle Eastern countries.
The investigators will have a six-month recruitment period to include the eligible subjects as per the protocol selection criteria. Retrospective patients should have been on Ribociclib in combination with hormonal therapy for at least 18 months and stopped the medication before the patient's recruitment.
Ambispective patients should have initiated Ribociclib, in combination with hormonal therapy, for at least 12 months before the patient's recruitment date and are still on Ribociclib in combination with hormonal therapy at recruitment. These patients will be followed up till progression, death, Ribociclib discontinuation due to adverse events, or till a maximum period of 6 months, whichever comes first.
Data will be collected from patient electronic medical records in the sites chosen for patients who received Ribociclib, in combination with hormonal therapy, in the first or second-line setting available in the relevant institutions.
A total of 550 patients is planned for this study. The planned sample size should capture very common adverse events reported in previous studies as well as adverse events ≥ 10% occurring in grade 3 and grade 4 with precision ±2.5%.
14,825 studies on the registry are indexed under Breast Neoplasms; 3,319 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 358 is above the median of 184 across 3,235 observational studies indexed under Breast Neoplasms.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Exclusion Criteria:
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.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
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.
A line of therapy is one course of treatment, which may combine several drugs. First-line is the first course given; second-line follows when that stops working or is not tolerated.
“Two prior lines” means two courses that count separately under the study’s rules — not simply two drugs. Ask the study team if you are unsure how yours are counted.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

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

Ran from Mar 2024 to primary completion in Jun 2025, 15 months.
Of 189 industry-sponsored observational studies under Breast Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 43 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 26 and three quarters within 70. This study's 15 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 1,380 studies reached it within 55 months; a quarter within 25 and three quarters within 126.
