Abstract
1100 Background: EMERALD demonstrated significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) and a manageable toxicity profile for elacestrant vs standard of care endocrine therapy (SOC) in patients with ER+/HER2- mBC following progression on prior endocrine and CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy. Benefit was observed in the overall study population and in patients with ESR1 mutations (mESR1). Here, we report a subgroup analysis from EMERALD in patients with no prior chemotherapy. Methods: EMERALD (NCT03778931) is a randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial that enrolled patients with ER+/HER2− mBC who had 1–2 lines of endocrine therapy, mandatory pretreatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, and ≤1 chemotherapy. Patients were randomized 1:1 to elacestrant (400 mg orally daily) or SOC (investigator’s choice of fulvestrant or aromatase inhibitor). Primary endpoints were PFS in all patients and patients with mESR1. In this analysis, we compared PFS between elacestrant and SOC in patients without prior chemotherapy. Results: Among the 477 patients enrolled in the trial, 77.8% (n = 371) had not received prior chemotherapy for mBC (median age = 64). Among patients without prior chemotherapy, treatment with elacestrant was associated with significantly prolonged PFS compared to SOC in both the overall population (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.68 [95% CI, 0.52-0.89] P = 0.004; median PFS 3.7 vs 2.0; 6-mo PFS 38% vs 23%; 12-mo PFS 27% vs 12%), and patients with mESR1 (HR = 0.54 [95% CI, 0.36-0.80] P = 0.002; median PFS 5.3 vs 1.9; 6-mo PFS 44% vs 24%; 12-mo PFS 31% vs 12%). Key treatment-related adverse events (AEs) in the no prior chemotherapy elacestrant group were nausea (25.9%), fatigue (12.7%), and hot flush (11.1%). There were no treatment-related deaths in either group. Conclusions: Among patients with ER+/HER2− mBC without prior chemotherapy, elacestrant significantly prolonged PFS compared to SOC endocrine therapy and showed favorable outcomes in this subgroup. Clinical trial information: NCT03778931.
