This is an international, multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ribociclib with endocrine therapy as an adjuvant treatment in patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative, intermediate risk breast cancer.
While adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) is effective in reducing risk of recurrence in patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive early breast cancer (EBC), recurrences are still common, especially in patients with unfavorable clinical, pathological and/or molecular features. Ribociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor, demonstrated clinical efficacy with tolerable toxicity when added to ET in patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of addition of ribociclib to standard adjuvant ET on invasive disease-free survival in patients with HR+, HER2- intermediate-risk EBC.

Masking
TRIPLE
Ribociclib 600 mg daily on days 1 to 21 of a 28-day cycle for 26 cycles (approximately 24 months). Ribociclib will be supplied in the form of 200 mg tablets.
Placebo 600 mg daily on days 1 to 21 of a 28-day cycle for 26 cycles (approximately 24 months). Placebo will be supplied in the form of 200 mg tablets.
Tamoxifen 20 mg daily, or letrozole 2.5 mg daily, or anastrozole 1 mg daily, or exemestane 25 mg daily (male patients will be treated with tamoxifen 20 mg daily) for a total duration of at least 60 months. In premenopausal women, adjuvant endocrine therapy may include GnRH agonist administered every 28 days.
Invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) using STEEP criteria
iDFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first event of local invasive breast recurrence, regional invasive recurrence, distant recurrence, death, contralateral invasive breast cancer, or second primary non-breast invasive cancer, and is assessed locally by investigators.
Time frame: up to 90 months
Recurrence-free survival (RFS) using STEEP criteria
RFS is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of first event of local invasive breast recurrence, regional invasive recurrence, distant recurrence, or death.
Time frame: up to 90 months
Distant disease-free survival (DDFS) using STEEP criteria
DDFS is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of first event of distant recurrence, death, or second primary non-breast invasive cancer
Time frame: up to 90 months
Overall survival (OS)
OS is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause.
Time frame: up to 90 months
Quality of Life (QOL)
Change from baseline in the physical functioning sub-scale score and global health status/QOL scale score as assessed by EORTC QLQ-C30
Time frame: Baseline, 90 months
