Elacestrant + Everolimus in Patients ER+/HER2-, ESR1mut, Advanced Breast Cancer Progressing to ET and CDK4/6i.

This trial will study a type of advanced breast cancer (ABC) defined as endocrine receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-negative and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1)-mutated. Patients will be treated with elacestrant, a compound that acts as a selective estrogen receptor degrader, and everolimus (or placebo), a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women with advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. The main purpose of the study is to analyze the efficacy (to find out how effective a treatment is) of elacestrant plus everolimus therapy in patients who have ER-positive/HER2-negative, ESR1-mutated, ABC progressing to endocrine therapy and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor. The efficacy of elacestrant plus everolimus combination will be determined by assessing the period from elacestrant plus everolimus (or placebo) treatment initiation until to the first occurrence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or discontinuation from the study treatment for any other reason, whichever occurs first, defined as progression free survival. Rigorous eligibility criteria based on specific co-morbidities and clinicopathologic features of their disease have been designed to minimize the risk of patients participating in this study. The anticipated favorable clinical benefits of elacestrant combined with everolimus are projected to outweigh the risks of this treatment. This study will be performed in full compliance with International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) and all applicable local Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and regulations.

Participants in this study in addition to the standard care chemotherapy will also receive the drug alpelisib and L-NMMA. The therapies will be administered every 3 weeks (1 cycle) until disease progression, toxicity or until the participant withdraws from the study. The nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of the 3 week cycles. Participants will take the drug alpelisib by mouth once daily at a dose determined by a safety study and the drug L-NMMA will be given intravenously on days 1 to 5 of the 3 week cycles.

Real-life Evaluation of Endopredict® in Early HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer

EndoPredict is a genomic signature used to determine the 10-year risk of recurrence in early HR+/HER2- breast cancers classified as of intermediate risk according to conventional clinical and pathological criteria, and to guide the adjuvant treatment decision: hormone therapy alone or hormone therapy and chemotherapy. Since 2016, french laboratories performing the Endopredict test, included prospectively analyzed tumors in the SiMoSein registry with data collection : age, tumor size, lymph node status, histology, grade, HR and HER2 IHC status, Ki67, EPscore, Epclin score, risk of relapse, absolue benefit from chemotherapy, risk of late relapse The main objectives of the trial are to: Evaluate long-term relapse-free survival and overall survival over a 10-year period in breast cancer patients who underwent EndoPredict® testing according to: * EPclin risk class (low vs. high), * Lymph node status (N0/N1), * Tumor size (pT), * Age groups (\<40 years, 40-49 years, 50-69 years, ≥70 years), * EP score alone. This study provide real-life data to determine the clinical usefulness of this molecular signature in the management of early HR+/HER2- breast cancers. The ultimate goal is to be able to offer therapeutic de-escalation (avoiding chemotherapy) to patients who are reliably assessed as having a low risk of relapse.

Anastrazole, Fulvestrant & Abemaciclib for HR+HER2- Metastatic Breast Cancer

This is a phase 2, open-label, singled-arm clinical trial determining efficacy of combination therapy with anastrozole, fulvestrant and abemaciclib in subjects with breast cancer. These are subjects who are newly diagnosed advanced or metastatic hormone receptor positive breast cancer or subjects who have progressed following treatment free interval of more than 12 months following adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment.

Adherence to Aromatase Inhibitors ± Abemaciclib Treatment in Patients With Early-stage HER2-negative Breast Cancer

Around 90% of breast cancer patients are diagnosed at an early stage and approximately 70% are hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-). Despite advancements in adjuvant endocrine therapy, 20-30% of early-stage breast cancer patients relapse within the first decade post-surgery. A recent clinically meaningful therapeutic option for these patients has been cyclin-dependent kinases 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6 inhibitors). Abemaciclib and ribociclib were assessed in the adjuvant setting, both showing improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS). Abemaciclib has been approved by the FDA and EMA for HR+/HER2- early breast cancer at high risk of disease recurrence and is the first addition to the Slovenian treatment regimen in routine clinical practice. Poor medication adherence can directly affect the effectiveness of treatment for early HR+/HER2- breast cancer. While adherence data in patients treated with aromatase inhibitors are available, the adherence rate in patients with early HR+/HER2- breast cancer taking abemaciclib remains unclear. In this study, investigators hypothesize that patients receiving abemaciclib in combination with aromatase inhibitors will have lower medication adherence and higher discontinuation rates compared to those receiving aromatase inhibitors alone. It is expected that patients with better quality of life, better cognitive functioning, and a more positive attitude toward their therapy will demonstrate higher medication adherence rates. Adherence may also be influenced by additional factors, such as age and prior treatments.

Phase III Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Impact on Quality of Life of Capivasertib Alongside Standard-of-care Endocrine Treatment in Patients With HR+/HER2- Advanced Breast Cancer and Progression on Prior Endocrine-based Treatment

This is a multicentre phase-III-trial to evaluate the use of capivasertib in patients with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer and progression on prior endocrine-based treatment. The goal of this study is 1. To evaluate benefit of capivasertib regarding time to next treatment (TTNT1) - i.e., time "on treatment" with capivasertib. 2. To evaluate the benefits of patient reported outcome(PRO)-adherence regarding the deterioration of quality of life (DQoL)-free interval. There is no active comparison group but a historical control group consisting of data of patients treated within the CAPItello-291-study.. Participants will take capivasertib accompanied by standard of care endocrine treatment and are asked to document ther quality of life on standardised questionnaires. Optionally, patients can use eHealth support via their own smart phones.

Evaluation of PSMA in HER2- AR+ Metastatic Breast Cancer

The purpose of this research is to determine the expression of prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, androgen receptor (AR)-positive metastatic breast cancer, and to determine its role in resistance to the anti-androgen, bicalutamide. The investigators hypothesize that PSMA expression will correlate with resistance to anti-androgen therapies, as has been documented in prostate cancer, and this can be used to select patients most likely to benefit from these therapies in future clinical trials. 15 people with HER2-negative, AR-positive metastatic breast cancer will be enrolled and be on study for about 3 days.
