Title
IBRANCE® (palbociclib) is indicated for the treatment of HR+ HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer in combination with an AI, or in combination with fulvestrant in women who have received prior endocrine therapy. In pre- or perimenopausal women, the endocrine therapy should be combined with a LHRH agonist.1
PALOMA-3 Trial

PALOMA-3 was a Phase III trial that assessed the efficacy and safety of IBRANCE (palbociclib) plus fulvestrant (n=347) versus placebo plus fulvestrant (n=174) in women with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer that progressed on previous endocrine therapy.2,3,4

The study primary endpoint was investigator-assessed (IA) progression-free survival (PFS), and the key secondary endpoint was overall survival (OS).2,3,4

Significantly prolonged IA PFS with IBRANCE plus fulvestrant versus placebo plus fulvestrant in the intention-to-treat population (ITT) at initial follow-up (HR: 0.50 [95% CI: 0.40-0.62]; p<0.0001)*†2,3 

Adapted from Cristofanilli M, et al. Eur J Cancer. 2018.3

*Data cut-off date: 23rd October 2015. Median follow-up of 14.0 months (95% CI: 13.9–14.5) in the IBRANCE plus fulvestrant arm;2 †Investigator-assessed PFS was defined as the time from date of randomisation to the date of first documented objective disease progression (per RECIST v1.1) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first.2

TitleIBRANCE plus fulvestrant more than doubled PFS versus placebo plus fulvestrant3

IBRANCE plus fulvestrant demonstrated numerically longer, not statistically significant, median OS with IBRANCE plus fulvestrant versus placebo plus fulvestrant at extended follow-up (HR: 0.81 [95% CI: 0.64–1.03; 2-sided p=0.09 [NS])*†4

Adapted from Turner NC, et al. NEJM 2018.4

*Data cut-off date: 13th April 2018. Median follow-up of 44.8 months and 60% data maturity (310 deaths among 521 patients);4 †OS was defined as time from randomisation to death from any cause.4
