About this study

Official title: BYLieve: A Phase II, Multicenter, Open-label, Three-cohort, Non- Comparative Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Alpelisib Plus Fulvestrant or Letrozole in Patients With PIK3CA Mutant, Hormone Receptor (HR) Positive, HER2-negative Advanced Breast Cancer (aBC), Who Have Progressed on or After Prior Treatments

This was a Phase II, multicenter, open-label, three-cohort, non-comparative study of alpelisib plus endocrine therapy (either fulvestrant or letrozole) in subjects (pre- and post-menopausal women and men) with HR-positive, HER2-negative aBC harboring PIK3CA mutation(s) in the tumor, whose disease had progressed on or after prior treatments.

Read the detailed description

The study comprised two phases:

  1. Core Phase: included a treatment phase for all subjects from first subject first treatment (FSFT) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or death until 18 months post last subject first treatment (LSFT) + 1 month safety follow-up (total 19 months post LSFT), discontinuation from the study treatment for any other reason, or sponsor terminates the study. At the start of the Core Phase, subjects were assigned to Cohort A, Cohort B, or Cohort C based on previous therapy as follows:
  • Cohort A: alpelisib (300 mg oral QD) + fulvestrant (500 mg intramuscular (IM)) to subjects whose last prior treatment was a CDK4/6i plus any AI;
  • Cohort B: alpelisib (300 mg oral QD) + letrozole (2.5 mg oral QD) to subjects whose last prior treatment was a CDK4/6i plus fulvestrant;
  • Cohort C: alpelisib (300 mg oral QD)+ fulvestrant (500 mg IM) to subjects who failed prior AI based therapy and whose last prior treatment was systemic chemotherapy or endocrine therapy (as monotherapy or in combination with targeted treatment except CDK 4/6i + AI). Endocrine therapy included letrozole, fulvestrant and CDK 4/6 inhibitor plus fulvestrant.
  1. Extension Phase: included a treatment phase starting at the end of the treatment Core Phase until last subject last visit(LSLV) (up to 36 months). Following the end of the Core Phase, subjects continuing to derive benefit from study treatment who were not eligible for Post-Study Drug Supply (PSDS) in their country based on local regulations were re-consented and transitioned to the Extension Phase. Subjects continued on their existing study treatment assigned in the Core Phase until disease progression/lack of clinical benefit or any other reason for which the subject may have been discontinued from study treatment. If PSDS became available for a subject, the subject was to be discontinued from the study and to access treatment via PSDS. When subjects discontinued treatment for any reason, the end of treatment visit was performed after discontinuation of the medication , followed by safety follow-up 30 days after last dose.

A total of 340 subjects were planned to be enrolled, with approximately 112 subjects in each cohort. In the Core Phase, 379 subjects were analyzed, with 127 subjects in Cohort A, 126 subjects in Cohort B, and 126 subjects in Cohort C. In the Extension Phase, 11 subjects were analyzed, with 1 subject in Cohort A and 10 subjects in Cohort C.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Core Phase: Percentage of Participants Who Were Alive Without Disease Progression at 6 Months

    Percentage of participants who were alive without disease progression at 6-month follow-up based on local investigator assessment per RECIST v1.1 in Cohort A, Cohort B and Cohort C. Participants who progressed, died, or discontinued study before 6 months were counted as a failure.

    Measured: At 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Core Phase: Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from the date of first dose of study medication to the date of the first documented progression or death due to any cause occurring in the study. PFS was assessed based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1. PFS was censored if no PFS event was observed before the cut-off date. The censoring date was the date of last adequate tumor assessment before the cut-off date. If a PFS event was observed after two or more missing or non-adequate tumor assessments, then PFS was censored at the last adequate tumor assessment. PFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: From date of first dose to date of first documented progression or death, up to 46 months

  2. Core Phase: Progression Free Survival on Next Line Treatment (PFS2)

    PFS2 is defined as time from the date of first dose of study medication to the date of first documented progression on next-line therapy or death from any cause. The first documented progression on next-line treatment is based on investigator assessment of progressive disease. PFS2 was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: From date of first dose to date of first documented progression on next-line therapy or death, up to approximately 55 months

  3. Core Phase: Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1 in each cohort. CR: Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions and all non-target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to < 10 mm and all lymph nodes assigned as non-target lesions must be non-pathological in size (<10 mm short axis) PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.

    Measured: Up to 46 months

  4. Core Phase: Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)

    CBR is defined as the percentage of participants with a BOR of CR or PR or an overall lesion response of stable disease (SD) or Non-CR/ Non-PD lasting ≥ 24 weeks based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1. CR: Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions and all non-target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to < 10 mm and all lymph nodes assigned as non-target lesions must be non-pathological in size (<10 mm short axis) PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. SD: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR or CR nor an increase in lesions which would qualify for progressive disease.

    Measured: Up to 46 months

  5. Core Phase: Duration of Response (DOR)

    DOR is the time from the date of first documented response (confirmed CR or PR based on local investigator's assessment according to RECIST v1.1) to the date of first documented progression or death due to underlying cancer. Subjects continuing without progression or death due to underlying cancer were censored at the date of their last adequate tumor assessment. DOR was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: From date of first documented response to first documented progression or death, up to 33.3 months

  6. Core Phase: Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time of start of treatment to date of death or lost to follow-up. If a subject was not known to have died, then the OS data was censored at the date of the last known alive status for the patient.

    Measured: From date of first dose and up to approximately 55 months

  7. Extension Phase: Percentage of Participants With Clinical Benefit as Assessed by the Investigator During the Extension Phase

    Clinical Benefit Rate, as assessed by the Investigator during the Extension Phase, was defined as the proportion of patients with a best overall response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR), or an overall lesion response of Stable Disease (SD) or non-complete response/non-progressive disease that lasted at least 24 weeks, based on the local investigator's assessment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1.

    Measured: Day 1 of each extension cycle up to Cycle 29 (each cycle lasting 28 days); median duration of exposure to study treatment (alpelisib or fulvestrant) = 41 months
