New treatment option for Breast Cancer
Official title Ribociclib in Hormone Receptor-positive, HER2-negative Early Breast Cancer With Residual Disease After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07400523
What this study is testing
What is Ribociclib plus aromatase inhibitor?
Ribociclib plus aromatase inhibitor is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, 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
- This is a multi-center, open-lable, prospective, randomized phase III clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant ribociclib combined with aromatase inhibitor in hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
