New treatment option for Hormone Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer
Official title ctDNA-Guided De-Escalation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy With Dalpiciclib in HR-Positive/HER2-Negative Breast Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06970912
What this study is testing
What is Dalpiciclib + Aromatase Inhibitor with ctDNA-Guided Therapy?
Dalpiciclib + Aromatase Inhibitor with ctDNA-Guided Therapy is an investigational medicine, given as an once-weekly pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
Also referred to as Dalpiciclib/AI combination therapy, SHR6390 + aromatase inhibitor.
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
- This is a Phase II, multicenter, randomized clinical trial evaluating a ctDNA-guided approach to de-escalate adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative early-stage breast cancer. The study aims to determine if combining the CDK4/6 inhibitor Dalpiciclib with endocrine therapy can reduce the need for chemotherapy while maintaining clinical benefits.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
