postMONARCH: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 3 Study to Compare the Efficacy of Abemaciclib plus Fulvestrant to Placebo plus Fulvestrant in Participants with HR+, HER2-, Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer Following Progression on a

postMONARCH is a Phase 3, global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlledstudy in participants with HR+, HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This study willenroll adults who experienced disease progression on a CDK4 & 6 inhibitor and an AI in thefirst-line setting or relapse on/after a CDK4 & 6 inhibitor with ET in the adjuvant setting.

Story

Breast cancer survivor clinical trial offers recovery and hope

Lindsay Fry is a breast cancer survivor who was first diagnosed in 2019. Her treatment regimen of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy began in fall 2019. Shortly after completing her treatment, Fry became the first participant in a new clinical trial at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio) that aims to help breast cancer survivors regain their energy and remain cancer free.

Clinical Trial

A Randomized, Open-label, Phase 3 Study of Sacituzumab Govitecan Versus Treatment of Physicianâ??s Choice in Patients With Previously Untreated, Locally Advanced, Inoperable or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Whose Tumors Do Not Express PD-L1 or

This is an international, multicenter, open-label, randomized, Phase 3 study in patients withlocally advanced, inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have not received previous therapy for advanced disease and whose tumors are either: PD-L1 negative at screening (defined using the PD-L1 IHC 22C3 assay as tumors with a combined positive score (CPS) < 10), OR PD-L1 positive at screening (defined using the PD-L1 IHC 22C3 assay as tumors with a CPS ≥ 10) if they previously received a checkpoint inhibitor in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting.

Clinical Trial

S1207, Phase III Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Use of Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy +/- One Year of Everolimus in Patients with High-Risk, Hormone Receptor-Positive and HER2/neu Negative Breast Cancer (CTRC# 13-0002)

RATIONALE: Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using tamoxifen citrate, goserelin acetate, leuprolide acetate, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane, may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet know whether hormone therapy is more effective when given with or without everolimus in treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial studies how well giving hormone therapy together with or without everolimus work in treating patients with breast cancer.

Clinical Trial

NRG-BR003, A Randomized Phase III Trial of Adjuvant Therapy Comparing Doxorubicin Plus Cyclophosphamide Followed by Weekly Paclitaxel with or without Carboplatin for Node-Positive or High-Risk Node-Negative Triple-Negative Invasive Breast Cancer (CTMS# 15

This randomized phase III trial studies how well doxorubicin hydrochloride and cyclophosphamide followed by paclitaxel with or without carboplatin work in treating patients with triple-negative breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether doxorubicin hydrochloride and cyclophosphamide is more effective when followed by paclitaxel alone or paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating triple-negative breast cancer.
