Study Of Letrozole With Or Without Palbociclib (PD-0332991) For The First-Line Treatment Of Hormone-Receptor Positive Advanced Breast Cancer

Percentage of participants with objective response based assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed responses are those that persist on repeat imaging study at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. Per RECIST v1.0: CR defined as disappearance of all target lesions and non-target lesions. PR defined as ≥30% decrease in sum of the longest diameters (LD) of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum LD according to RECIST associated to non-progressive disease response for non target lesions.

CBR is defined as a confirmed CR, confirmed PR, or stable disease (SD) for at least 24 weeks on study according to RECIST. Confirmed responses are those that persisted on repeat imaging >= 4 weeks after initial response.

Triplicate 12-lead ECG measurements (each recording separated by approximately 2 minutes) were performed and average was calculated. The time corresponding to beginning of depolarization to repolarization of the ventricles (QT interval) was adjusted for RR interval using QT and RR from each ECG by Fridericia's formula (QTcF = QT divided by cube root of RR), by Bazette's formula (QTcB = QT divided by square root of RR) and corrected QT interval according to study-specific criteria (QTcS). Participants with maximum increase from baseline of 30 to less than (<) 60 msec(borderline) and greater than or equal to (>=) 60 msec (prolonged) were summarized.

Time in weeks or months from randomization to date of death due to any cause. OS was calculated as (the death date or last known alive date (if death date unavailable) minus the date of randomization plus 1) divided by 7 or 30.44 if in months.

Measurable disease referred to the lesions that was accurately measured in at least 1 dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as ≥20 mm with conventional techniques or as ≥10-16 mm with spiral computer tomography scan (depending on reconstruction interval). Clinical lesions were only be considered measurable when they were superficial (eg, skin nodules, palpable lymph nodes).

Time in weeks, (months or years) from randomization or (start of study treatment for non-randomized studies) to first documentation of objective tumor progression. TTP was calculated as (first event date or last known progression-free date minus the date of randomization [or first dose of study medication for non-randomized studies] plus 1) divided by 7 or 30.44 if in months. Tumor progression was determined from oncologic assessment data (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease [PD] per RECIST).

The mBPI-sf is a validated and reliable self-report questionnaire which consists of 13 questions that assess the severity and impact of pain on daily function. The 13 items of the questionnaire make up two scales and two single items. The scales include the 4-item Pain Severity Scale (worst pain, least pain, average pain, and pain right now) and the 7-item Pain Interference Scale (general activity, mood, walking ability, normal work, relations with other people, sleep, and enjoyment of life). Each item of the pain severity and pain interference scales are based on a 11-point numeric rating scale from 0 ("no pain" or "does not interfere") to 10 ("pain as bad as you can imagine" or "completely interferes").

Tissue samples were used for retrospective biomarker analyses. For Phase 2 Part 2, the tissue samples were sent to a central laboratory for the assessment of participant selection biomarkers. For Phase 2 Part 1, the assessment of the biomarkers (CCND1 amplification and/or loss of p16) were performed retrospectively from the available samples.

Frequency of tumor tissue biomarker Ki67 was evaluated in across treatment groups.

Presence or absence of tumor RB and CyclinD1 were evaluated. The following definitions of expression applied in the below table: Positive: any expression >0 and Negative: any expression=0.

Gene copy number for CCND1 (CCND1/CEP11) and p16/INK4A (p16/CEP9) were evaluated. This analysis was done for Phase 2 combined group.

One 2-mL blood specimen was collected for the analysis of germline polymorphism in CYP19A1 and CCND1 genes. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4646 as defined in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database in the aromatase gene (CYP19A1) was analyzed. A germline polymorphism G/A870 (rs9344) in the CCND1 gene was analyzed.

AE:any untoward medical occurrence in participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship.AEs included both serious and non-serious AEs.SAE:AE resulting in any of following outcomes/deemed significant and jeopardized participants or required treatment to prevent other AE outcomes for any other reason:death;initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization;life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying);persistent or significant disability/incapacity;congenital anomaly.Treatment emergent AEs:events occurred between first dose of study drug and up to 28 days after last dose that were absent before treatment or worsened relative to pre-treatment state.AEs were graded as per the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 and coded using Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Participants with AE of grade 3 or 4 and grade 5 were reported as Grade 3:Severe, Grade 4:Life threatening, Grade 5:Death related to AE.

AE: any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug. AEs included both serious and non-serious adverse events. SAE: AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment emergent AEs: events occurred between first dose of study drug and up to 28 days after last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pre-treatment state. Treatment related AEs: all AEs with causality related to treatment. Relatedness to drug was assessed by the investigator. AEs were graded according to the CTCAE version 3.0 and coded using the MedDRA. Number of participants with AE of grade 3 or 4 and with AE of grade 5 were reported as Grade 3: Severe, Grade 4: Life threatening, Grade 5: Death related to AE.
