Capivasertib+Fulvestrant vs Placebo+Fulvestrant as Treatment for Locally Advanced (Inoperable) or Metastatic HR+/HER2− Breast Cancer - CAPItello-291

Exclusion Criteria

• 1.Symptomatic visceral disease or any disease burden that makes the patient ineligible for endocrine therapy per the investigator’s best judgement
• 2. More than 2 lines of endocrine therapy for inoperable locally advanced or metastatic disease
• 3. More than 1 line of chemotherapy for inoperable locally advanced or metastatic disease. Adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapy are not classed as lines of chemotherapy for advanced breast cancer
• 4. Prior treatment with any of the following:
• a) AKT, PI3K and mTOR inhibitors
• b) Fulvestrant, and other SERDs
• c) Any other chemotherapy, immunotherapy, immunosuppressant medication (other than corticosteroids) or anticancer agents within 3 weeks prior to study treatment initiation.
• d) Potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment (3 weeks for St John’s wort) or drugs that are sensitive to CYP3A4 inhibition within 1 week prior to study treatment initiation.
• 5.Radiotherapy with a wide field of radiation up to 4 weeks before study treatment initiation (capivasertib/placebo) and/or radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation for palliation up to 2 weeks before study treatment initiation (capivasertib/placebo)
• 6.With the exception of alopecia, any unresolved toxicities from prior therapy greater than CTCAE grade 1 at the time of starting study treatment
• 7. Spinal cord compression or brain metastases unless asymptomatic, treated and stable and not requiring steroids up to 4 weeks before study treatment initiation
• 8. Any of the following cardiac criteria:
• a) Mean resting QT interval corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) >470 msec obtained from 3 consecutive ECGs
• b) Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction or morphology of resting ECG (eg, complete left bundle branch block, third degree heart block)
• c) Any factors that increase the risk of corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events such as heart failure, hypokalaemia, potential for torsades de pointes, congenital long QT syndrome, family history of long QT syndrome or unexplained sudden death under 40 years of age or any concomitant medication known to prolong the QT interval
• d) Experience of any of the following procedures or conditions in the preceding 6 months: coronary artery bypass graft, angioplasty, vascular stent, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, congestive heart failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade ≥2
• e) Uncontrolled hypotension – systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure <50 mmHg
• f) Cardiac ejection fraction outside institutional range of normal or <50% (whichever is higher) as measured by echocardiogram (or multiple-gated acquisition [MUGA] scan if an echocardiogram cannot be performed or is inconclusive)
• 9. Clinically significant abnormalities of glucose metabolism as defined by any of the following:
• a) Patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 or diabetes mellitus type 2 requiring insulin treatment
• b) HbA1c ≥8.0% (63.9 mmol/mol)
• 10. Known abnormalities in coagulation such as bleeding diathesis, or treatment with anticoagulants precluding intramuscular injections of fulvestrant or LHRH agonist (if applicable)
• 11. Currently pregnant (confirmed with positive pregnancy test) or breast-feeding
