Brief Summary:
Study assessing the efficacy and safety of alpelisib plus fulvestrant or letrozole, based on prior endocrine therapy, in patients with hormone receptor (HR) positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (aBC), harboring PIK3CA mutations, who have progressed on or after prior treatments.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Breast Cancer Drug: Alpelisib Drug: Fulvestrant Drug: Letrozole Drug: Goserelin Drug: Leuprolide Phase 2

Detailed Description:

This is a phase II, multicenter, open-label, three-cohort, noncomparative study of alpelisib plus endocrine therapy (either fulvestrant or letrozole) in patients with HR+, HER2- aBC harboring PIK3CA mutation(s) in the tumor whose disease has progressed on or after prior treatments.

The study includes two phases:

Core Phase: Includes treatment phase for all patients from First Patient First Treatment (FPFT) until 18 months post Last Patient First Treatment (LPFT) + 1 month Safety follow-up (total 19 months post LPFT) Extension Phase: includes treatment phase starting at the end of the treatment Core Phase until 36 months + 1 month safety follow-up (total of 37 months post Core phase). The extension treatment phase is only for patients who are continuing to benefit from treatment at the end of the Core Phase and are not eligible for PSDS (Post-Study Drug Supply) in their country based on local regulations. Patients will continue on their existing treatment assigned in the Core Phase. If PSDS becomes available for a patient, the patient should be discontinued from the study and access treatment via PSDS.

Patients who are benefiting from treatment and are eligible for PSDS will exit the trial at the end of the Core Phase.

    Percentage of participants without disease progression at 6 months of treatment based on local investigator assessment per RECIST v1.1 in cohort A, cohort B and cohort C


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression free survival (PFS) for each cohort [ Time Frame: From date of first dose to date of first documented progression or death, up to approximately 25 months ]
    PFS is defined as the time from the date of first dose of study medication to the date of the first documented progression or death due to any cause occurring in the study. PFS will be assessed based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1

  2. Progression free survival (PFS) on next line treatment PFS2) for each cohort [ Time Frame: From date of first dose to date of first documented progression on next-line therapy or death, up to approximately 25 months ]
    Progression free survival (PFS) on next line treatment (PFS2) is defined as time from the date of first dose of study medication to the date of first documented progression on next-line therapy or death from any cause. The first documented progression on next-line treatment is based on investigator assessment of progressive disease (PD)

  3. Overall response rate (ORR) for each cohort [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 25 months ]
    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1 in each cohort

  4. Clinical benefit rate (CBR) for each cohort [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 25 months ]
    CBR is defined as the percentage of participants with a BOR of CR or PR or an overall lesion response of stable disease (SD) or Non-CR/ Non-PD lasting ≥ 24 weeks based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1.

  5. Duration of response (DOR) [ Time Frame: From date of first documented response to first documented progression or death, up to approximately 25 months ]
    Duration of Response is the time from the date of first documented response (confirmed CR or PR based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1 ) to the date of first documented progression or death due to underlying cancer

  6. Overall suvivial (OS) for each cohort [ Time Frame: From date of first dose and up to approximately 25 months ]
    Overall Survival is defined as the time of start of treatment to date of death or lost to follow-up.

  7. Percentage of participants with clinical benefit as assessed by the Investigator during the extension phase [ Time Frame: From end of core phase up to 12 months ]
    Percentage of participants with clinical benefit as assessed by the Investigator at scheduled visits during the extension phase
