Endometrial Cancer | Drug: Palbociclib/placebo Drug: Letrozole | Phase 2 |
This multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 study is evaluating the efficacy of letrozole-palbociclib combination against letrozole-placebo combination in women with ER+ advanced or relapsed endometrial cancer.
Stratification
Patients are stratified according to:
- Number of prior lines of therapy (primary advanced disease vs. 1st relapse vs. ≥2 relapses)
- Measurable vs. evaluable disease
- Prior use of MPA/Megace
Randomization 1:1 randomization The patients with prior MPA/Megace treatment will be capped to a maximum of 50%.
Study arms
Patients are randomized to one of the two treatment arms:
- Arm A: (comparator) letrozole-placebo combination therapy until progression.
- Arm B: (experimental arm): Letrozole- palbociclib combination therapy until progression
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Actual Enrollment : | 78 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Parallel Assignment |
Intervention Model Description: | randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled |
Masking: | Double (Participant, Investigator) |
Primary Purpose: | Treatment |
Official Title: | ENGOT-EN3-NSGO/PALEO: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase II Trial of Palbociclib in Combination With Letrozole Versus Placebo in Combination With Letrozole for Patients With Estrogen Receptor Positive Advanced or Recurrent Endometrial Cancer. |

Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Placebo Comparator: Letrozole + placebo
letrozole 2.5mg once daily days 1-28 every 28 days shall be administered until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity. Letrozole is administered as standard of care in both study arms. Placebo for palbociclib once daily days 1-21 every 28 days shall be administered until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity. |
Drug: Letrozole
Letrozole is standard of care in both arms |
Experimental: Letrozole + palbociclib
Palbociclib 125mg once daily days 1-21 every 28 days shall be administered until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity. letrozole 2.5mg once daily days 1-28 every 28 days shall be administered until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity. Letrozole is administered as standard of care in both study arms. |
Drug: Palbociclib/placebo
Palbociclib or a placebo is administered together with standard of care letrozole Drug: Letrozole Letrozole is standard of care in both arms |
