Recruiting PHASE2 Breast Cancer

Compares treatment options for Breast Cancer

Official title Lenvatinib+Letrozole Versus Fulvestrant in Metastatic ER+/HER2- Breast Cancer, Post Progression on Al + CDK4/6 Inhibitor

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05181033

What this study is testing

What is Lenvatinib + Letrozole?

Lenvatinib + Letrozole is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for breast cancer.

Also referred to as Lenvima.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Based on the results of the phase Ib/II study, the investigators hypothesize that combining a RET inhibitor lenvatinib with endocrine therapy letrozole improves objective response and progression-free survival compared to fulvestrant alone in the second line setting in patients who have progressed on first line endocrine therapy incorporating a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Letrozole and fulvestrant are anti-hormonal drugs that have been proven to have activity and are considered standard therapies for hormone receptor positive breast cancer.
