What this study is testing

What is Abemaciclib 150 MG + Giredestrant 30 MG?

Abemaciclib 150 MG + Giredestrant 30 MG is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for breast cancer.

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
The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of abemaciclib and giredestrant before surgery in participants with early stage, oestrogen receptor-positive (ER+), human epidermal receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer (BC). Primary objective: ● To evaluate the efficacy of abemaciclib and giredestrant in complete cell cycle arrest (CCCA) rate at Week 2.
