Overview

Eclectic is a strategy trial; once the class of treatment (endocrine therapy or chemotherapy) has been allocated according to 16α-18F-fluoro-17β-oestradiol (18F-FES) Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) results and circulating tumor biomarkers, clinicians will decide which treatment to use.

Description

All patients deemed eligible for a second line endocrine therapy will undergo a 18F-FES PET/CT scan and circulating tumor biomarkers assessment (circulating tumor cells (CTC) and, if not available, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)). All 18F-FES PET/CT scan will be anonymized and reviewed centrally, and compared to the 18Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT results before treatment initiation; circulating biomarkers status will be assessed centrally and will remain blinded to investigator and patients.

Endocrine therapy in Arm A and C may consist in single agent endocrine therapy or in combination with targeted therapy. Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone (LH-RH) agonist will be used in combination with endocrine therapy whenever appropriate and per label. Chemotherapy in Arm B may consist in single agent chemotherapy, poly-chemotherapy, or antibody-drug conjugates. Patients who are eligible (per drug label) may receive Poly-adenosine-5'-diphosphate-ribose Polymerase (PARP) inhibitor if allocated to Arm B.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Metastatic invasive breast carcinoma of no special type.
  2. Females of age ≥18 years.
  3. Life expectancy > 3 months.
  4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0-2.
  5. Estrogen Receptor (ER)-positive (≥10%) and HER2-negative (ASCO/College of American Pathologists guidelines) breast cancer, per local assessment on the most recent breast cancer tissue examined.
  6. Tumor block Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (primary tumor or metastasis) available.
  7. Patients whose disease has progressed on first line endocrine therapy with aromatase inhibitor and CDK4/6 inhibitor and who are deemed eligible, per investigator assessment, to a second line endocrine therapy. The progression on first line endocrine therapy with aromatase inhibitor and CDK4/6 inhibitor must have occurred after more than 6 months on treatment.
  8. Patients with available 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging
  9. Evaluable disease per RECIST criteria and measurable disease per PERCIST criteria.
  10. Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and any protocol-related procedures including screening evaluations.
  11. Signed informed consent.
  12. Patient affiliated to a social security system.

Exclusion criteria:

  1. Other breast cancer subtype (e.g. invasive lobular breast carcinoma).
  2. One or more prior line of chemotherapy in the metastatic setting.
  3. Any other antineoplastic therapy given at metastatic disease than the first line therapy with aromatase inhibitor and CDK4/6 inhibitor.
  4. Visceral crisis, per investigator's assessment.
  5. Liver-only metastases.
  6. Prior exposure to any authorized or experimental agent degrading the estrogen receptor (fulvestrant, oral SERDs, PROTAC, etc).
  7. Pregnancy or lactation period.
  8. In women of childbearing potential or premenopausal women or women with amenorrhea of less than 12 months, without adequate non-hormonal contraceptive measures (barrier methods, intrauterine contraceptive devices, sterilization; LH-RH agonist cannot be considered as an efficient contraceptive measure), positive urinary or serum pregnancy test 72 hours before 18F-FES PET/CT.
  9. Known active uncontrolled or symptomatic Central Nervous System (CNS) metastases, carcinomatous meningitis, or leptomeningeal disease. Patients with a history of CNS metastases or cord compression are eligible if they have been treated with local therapy (e.g., radiotherapy, stereotactic surgery) and are clinically stable and off anticonvulsants and steroids for at least 4 weeks before treatment start.
  10. History of previous cancer or hematological malignancy within 3 years preceding patient enrollment in the trial. Multiple primary breast cancers (controlateral/ipsilateral cancers/local relapses) are allowed pending all tumors were ER+ HER2-.
  11. Persons deprived of their freedom or under guardianship or incapable of giving consent.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
