Program Overview
The study aims to evaluate how effective and safe the combination of ribociclib and standard hormone therapy is in preventing the return of early-stage breast cancer. It focuses on patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer at certain stages. The study is open-label, meaning both doctors and participants know what treatment is being given, and it takes place across multiple centers.
Description
The study includes three main parts: Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up.
-
Treatment Period: After completing the screening, participants will take ribociclib (400 mg) by mouth once daily for 21 days in a 28-day cycle, along with daily hormone therapy, for about 36 months. This period starts with the first dose of ribociclib and ends with a safety follow-up call 30 days after the last dose.
-
Follow-up Period: After finishing the treatment, participants will be monitored until they withdraw consent, are lost to follow-up, pass away, or until 48 months after the last participant starts treatment, whichever comes first.
