Abstract OT3-02-01: RIBANNA — Real-world evidence of ribociclib plus aromatase inhibitor, or endocrine monotherapy, or chemotherapy as first-line therapy for postmenopausal women with HR+, HER2– advanced breast cancer (aBC)

Abstract

Background: In the pivotal phase 3 MONALEESA-2 trial, ribociclib, a highly selective oral CDK4/6 inhibitor in combination with letrozole significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared to letrozole alone. In the year 2017, based on the results of MONALEESA-2, ribociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) was approved for the treatment of HR+, HER2– aBC in postmenopausal women with no prior therapy for their advanced disease (first-line treatment). Beyond phase 3 trials, further data for ribociclib are now becoming available from the phase 3b trials, RIBECCA and COMPLEEMENT-1, involving approximately 500 and 3000 patients with aBC, respectively. However, real-world evidence for the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of ribociclib + AI in the routine clinical practice is needed to further support the use of this combination in the first-line therapy. Methods: RIBANNA is a non-interventional study, which started in October 2017 and plans to enroll 3020 patients across ˜400 sites in Germany. Postmenopausal women diagnosed with aBC will be enrolled into 3 cohorts (cohort 1: ribociclib + AI; cohort 2: endocrine monotherapy; and cohort 3: chemotherapy). Across all cohorts, patients will be treated in accordance with the respective German-prescribing guidelines. Data related to efficacy (with PFS as the primary efficacy criterion), safety, tolerability, duration of therapy, and impact on quality of life (QoL) will be collected. QoL will be assessed using the validated patient questionnaires. This study was especially designed to analyze the patient data from sequential lines of therapy in all three cohorts over a period of up to 7 years. For this purpose, RIBANNA will collect the data on each line of treatment and the reason for changing treatment in all 3 cohorts. The same accounts for QoL, which will also be assessed periodically, regardless of disease progression and initiation of subsequent therapies. RIBANNA is the first study to provide the real-world evidence regarding treatment of HR+, HER2− aBC with the CDK4/6 inhibitor, ribociclib. This study includes 3 treatment cohorts (ribociclib + AI, endocrine monotherapy, and chemotherapy) with subsequent treatment algorithms and assessment of QoL over the entire study period.
