QLS1304 with endocrine therapy for advanced ER+/HER2- breast cancer

Official title: A Phase Ib/II Clinical Study to Evaluate Safety, Preliminary Efficacy and PK Characteristic of QLS1304 Combined With Endocrine Therapy in ER+/HER2- Breast Cancer Patients

Run by Qilu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. · NCT07235176 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial tests whether adding QLS1304 to standard endocrine therapy is safe and shows early signs of benefit for adults with advanced ER+/HER2- breast cancer who have progressed after prior hormone treatment.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18) with histologically confirmed locally recurrent or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer, ECOG 0–1, measurable disease per RECIST v1.1, adequate organ function, and prior failure of at least one endocrine therapy are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients with HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer, poor performance status, expected survival under 12 weeks, or contraindications to endocrine therapy or the study drugs are unlikely to benefit from this trial.

What this trial studies

This open-label phase Ib/II trial uses a two-stage design with a combination dose-escalation phase followed by a dose-expansion phase to define a recommended dose and further characterize safety and preliminary activity. Participants receive QLS1304 combined with endocrine agents such as fulvestrant or an aromatase inhibitor, and some cohorts may include QLC1401 with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Key outcomes include safety, pharmacokinetics, and early efficacy signals measured by RECIST v1.1. The study is conducted at multiple centers with detailed monitoring during treatment and follow-up.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the combination could provide a new treatment option that improves disease control for patients with endocrine-resistant ER+/HER2- breast cancer.

How similar studies have gone: Combining targeted agents with endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitors has improved outcomes in ER+/HER2- breast cancer, but QLS1304 and QLC1401 are novel agents with limited published clinical data.
