About This Breast Cancer Study in Altamonte Springs

Researchers are looking for other ways to treat breast cancer (BC) that is hormone receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) and either unresectable locally advanced or metastatic. * HR positive (HR+) means the cancer cells have proteins that attach to estrogen or progesterone (hormones) which help the cancer to grow and spread * HER2 negative (HER2-) means the cancer cells have a low amount of a protein called HER2 * Unresectable locally advanced means

Inclusion Criteria

The main inclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following:
Has a diagnosis of hormone receptor positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)- invasive breast carcinoma that is either locally advanced disease not amenable to resection with curative intent (herein called unresectable) or metastatic disease not treatable with curative intent

Must have had progression or recurrence on prior cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4/6 inhibitor + endocrine therapy (ET) with one of the following:
Radiographic disease progression, as assessed by the investigator, on CDK4/6 inhibitor + ET as 1L for treatment of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer. CDK4/6 inhibitor + ET must be the only line of therapy received in the advanced setting, or
Disease recurrence, either radiographic and/or confirmed histologically via biopsy as assessed by the investigator, while on adjuvant ET in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor OR within 24 months from the date of last dose of adjuvant CDK4/6 inhibitor
