Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study aims to evaluate the hematological safety of palbociclib with letrozole and fulvestrant in African American women with hormone receptor positive HER2 negative advanced breast cancer. Hematological safety is a composite endpoint of episodes of febrile neutropenia and treatment discontinuation due to neutropenia according to current recommendations for management of neutropenia

- description
- For study purpose febrile neutropenia will be defined according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0: "ANC less than 1000/mm3 with a single temperature of \>38.3 degrees Celsius (101 degrees Fahrenheit) or a sustained temperature of 38 degrees Celsius (100.4 degrees Fahrenheit) for more than one hour." Planned oncology therapy is defined as completion of one year of therapy for advanced breast cancer in the absence of disease progression or cessation of study drug due to progressive disease or non-hematological toxicity.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Self-identified Black, African or African American women of ≥ 18 years of age with proven diagnosis of advanced adenocarcinoma of the breast (locoregionally recurrent or metastatic disease) 2. ER-positive and/or PgR-positive tumor based on local laboratory results 3. HER2-negative breast cancer based on local laboratory results (test to be used as per local practice) 4.
