What this study is testing
To compare invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) in patients randomized to standard (neo)adjuvant therapy plus placebo or standard (neo)adjuvant therapy plus atorvastatin (80 mg/day for two years).
- Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III)
A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.
Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Women with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer who are candidates for (neo)adjuvant systemic therapy OR have received ≤3 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy.
- Age > 18 years.
- Performance status of ECOG ≤ 2.
- Prior to patient registration, written informed consent must be given according to ICH/GCP, and national/local regulations.
You likely can't join if
- History of any prior (ipsi- and/or contralateral) invasive breast carcinoma.
- Ongoing (prevalent) cholesterol-lowering therapy (statins, fibrates, ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors). If so, the patient can be enrolled in the observational arm given fulfillment of other in- and exclusion criteria.
- Evidence of hepatic dysfunction (alanine aminotransferase level more than three times the upper limit of the normal range) or renal dysfunction (creatinine level more than three times the upper limit of the normal range).
- Predisposing factors for rhabdomyolysis, including hypothyroidism, reduced renal function, any muscle – or liver disease, or excessive alcohol consumption (above 14 drinks/week) AND creatine kinase (CK) measured to less more than five times the upper limit (CK only measured in case of predisposing factors).
- Current medication with potent CYP3A4-inhibitors (e.g. ketokonazole, erythromycin) or gemfibrozile, cyclosporin or danazol.
- Pregnancy or breast-feeding (contraception according to clinical routines for premenopausal, fertile breast cancer patients, that includes non-hormonal contraception such as condom, vaginal diaphragm, or intrauterine device).
