Trial design
CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding
Main objective
Scope: Therapy
To compare invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) in patients randomized to standard (neo)adjuvant therapy plus placebo or standard (neo)adjuvant therapy plus atorvastatin (80 mg/day for two years).
Secondary objectives 4
- To compare overall survival (OS), recurrence-free interval (RFI), distant recurrence-free interval (DRFI) including associations with first site of recurrence, cardiac death-free interval, and overall safety in the two treatment arms.
- To evaluate pathological response (only neoadjuvant treated patients) according to treatment arm
- To investigate patient reported outcome measurements.
- To address translational endpoints as specified in the translational protocol parts.
Conditions and MedDRA coding
Breast cancer
Eligibility criteria
Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor
Inclusion criteria 4
- Women with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer who are candidates for (neo)adjuvant systemic therapy OR have received ≤3 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy.
- Age > 18 years.
- Performance status of ECOG ≤ 2.
- Prior to patient registration, written informed consent must be given according to ICH/GCP, and national/local regulations.
Exclusion criteria 8
- History of any prior (ipsi- and/or contralateral) invasive breast carcinoma.
- Ongoing (prevalent) cholesterol-lowering therapy (statins, fibrates, ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors). If so, the patient can be enrolled in the observational arm given fulfillment of other in- and exclusion criteria.
- Evidence of hepatic dysfunction (alanine aminotransferase level more than three times the upper limit of the normal range) or renal dysfunction (creatinine level more than three times the upper limit of the normal range).
- Predisposing factors for rhabdomyolysis, including hypothyroidism, reduced renal function, any muscle – or liver disease, or excessive alcohol consumption (above 14 drinks/week) AND creatine kinase (CK) measured to less more than five times the upper limit (CK only measured in case of predisposing factors).
- Current medication with potent CYP3A4-inhibitors (e.g. ketokonazole, erythromycin) or gemfibrozile, cyclosporin or danazol.
- Pregnancy or breast-feeding (contraception according to clinical routines for premenopausal, fertile breast cancer patients, that includes non-hormonal contraception such as condom, vaginal diaphragm, or intrauterine device).
- Psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; these conditions will be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biological composition to atorvastatin.
Endpoints
Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)
Primary endpoints 1
- Invasive disease-free survival (IDFS), defined as the time from randomization until the date of the first occurrence of one of the following events: Ipsilateral invasive breast tumor recurrence, Regional invasive breast cancer recurrence, Distant recurrence, Death attributable to any cause, including breast cancer, non-breast cancer, or unknown cause, Contralateral invasive breast cancer or Second primary non-breast invasive cancer.
Secondary endpoints 6
- Pathological response (only neo-adjuvant treated patients)
- Distant-recurrence free interval defined as time from inclusion to first distant recurrence including associations with first site of recurrence.
- Recurrence-free interval including associations with first site of recurrence
- Overall survival.
- Overall safety.
- Cardiac death-free interval. Cardiac death is defined as: Definitive cardiac death due to heart failure, myocardial infarction or documented primary arrhythmia.
