Elacestrant Monotherapy in ER+/HER2- Advanced Breast Cancer with ESR1 Mutation (Japanese Participants)
Official title: A Phase 2 Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Elacestrant Monotherapy for the Treatment of Japanese Participants With ER+/HER2- Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer With ESR1-mutation Following CDK4/6 Inhibitor Therapy
Run by Stemline Therapeutics, Inc. · NCT07766018 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests elacestrant alone to see if it helps Japanese adults with ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer that has ESR1 mutation and progressed after one or two prior endocrine therapies including a CDK4/6 inhibitor.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Japanese adults with ESR1-mutant, ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer who progressed after 1-2 lines of endocrine therapy that included a CDK4/6 inhibitor in combination therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without ESR1 mutation or without disease progression after prior endocrine therapy, or those who do not meet menopausal status or tumor receptor criteria, may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a multicenter, open-label Phase 2 bridging study evaluating the efficacy and safety of elacestrant as a single agent in Japanese post-menopausal women and men with ESR1-mutant, ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Participants must have progressed on or afterCDK4/6 inhibitor therapy in combination with fulvestrant or an aromatase inhibitor. The trial uses Guardant360 to confirm ESR1 mutation status before enrollment and will enroll patients who have limited prior lines of endocrine therapy. Lead sponsor is Stemline Therapeutics, with participating sites in Chiba and Fukuoka, Japan. Primary goals focus on response and safety in this specific genetic and geographic subset.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, elacestrant could provide a targeted oral option for Japanese patients with ESR1-mutant ER+/HER2- breast cancer who have progressed on prior endocrine therapies.
How similar studies have gone: Prior studies with elacestrant in ESR1-mutant ER+ breast cancer have shown activity; this bridging study tailors the approach to a Japanese population.

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Must have a histologically or cytologically proven diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the breast with evidence of either locally advanced disease not amenable to resection or radiation therapy with curative intent or metastatic disease not amenable to curative therapy * Female participants must be post-menopausal (as defined by the protocol) * Must have ER+ and HER2- tumor status confirmed per local laboratory testing * Participants must be ESR1-mutant positive determined via testing with the Guardant360 Companion Diagnostic panel test prior to enrollment * Must have disease progression during or within 28 days of completion of prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor in combination with either fulvestrant or an aromatase inhibitor (this counts as a line of prior endocrine therapy) for metastatic breast cancer Key Exclusion Criteria: * Prior treatment with: elacestrant or investigational or approved selective estrogen receptor degrader or ER antagonist; antibody-drug conjugate therapy for advanced/metastatic breast cancer; anti-cancer or investigational drug treatment * Radiation therapy within 14 days (28 days for brain lesions) before the first dose of study drug * Intact uterus with a history of endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (atypical endometrial hyperplasia or higher-grade lesion) * Diagnosis of any other malignancy within 5 years before enrollment, except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or second primary breast cancer Note: Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
