Main objective

Scope: Safety, Therapy, Others

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of patient education and typology-based coaching on treatment persistence. The primary endpoint will be the time to permanent treatment discontinuation of ribociclib therapy.

Secondary objectives 8

  1. To assess the overall persistence rate at month 6, 12 and 36 (planned end of ribociclib treatment)
  2. To assess the relapse- and death-free discontinuation rate at month 6, 12, 36
  3. To assess the frequency and duration of patient- and physician-decided therapy interruptions
  4. To assess patient distress and quality of life
  5. To evaluate the tolerability and safety profile of ribociclib treatment
  6. To assess the invasive disease-free survival (iDFS), distant disease-free survival (DDFS), and overall survival (OS)
  7. To assess health utilities (healthcare provision resources)
  8. To evaluate the change in patient typology over time

1 Trial Period
After providing written informed consent, study participants will be registered into the electronic case form report (eCRF) and randomized at a 1:1 ratio through an interactive response technology system to receive either standard patient management (control arm) or personalized (study arm). All patients—irrespective of their allocated study arm—will receive treatment with ribociclib in combination with endocrine therapy.
Randomised Controlled None Study Arm: Patients randomized in this arm will receive intensified, personalized coaching on adjuvant therapy.
Control Arm: Patients will be treated according to standard of care.

  3. Participant has histologically confirmed primary invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast
  4. Participant has a histologically and/or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of ER-positive and/or progesterone receptor–positive breast cancer based on the most recently analyzed tissue sample tested by a local laboratory
  5. Participant has HER2neg breast cancer defined as a negative ISH test or an IHC status of 0, 1+, or 2+. If the IHC is 2+, a negative ISH (e.g., FISH, CISH, SISH, or DISH) test is required by local laboratory testing and based on the most recently analyzed tissue sample
  6. Indication for treatment with ribociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor for early breast cancer according to the valid SmPC
  7. Participant has adequate organ function amenable for treatment with ribociclib as assessed by a local laboratory
  8. Female participants of childbearing potential must have had a hysterectomy or be willing to use highly effective methods of contraception and have a confirmed negative pregnancy test as assessed by local in-house standard
  9. Participant is willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, and other trial procedures

Exclusion criteria 8

  1. Patients with distant metastases of breast cancer beyond regional lymph nodes (stage IV according to AJCC 8th edition) and/or evidence of recurrence after curative surgery

  3. Women who are pregnant or lactating
  4. Patients with active bacterial infections (requiring IV antibiotics at time of initiating study treatment), fungal infections, or detectable viral infections (e.g., known human immunodeficiency virus positivity or known active hepatitis B or C, such as hepatitis B surface antigen–positive])
  5. Patients with a personal history in the past 5 years of any of the following conditions: syncope of cardiovascular etiology, ventricular arrhythmia of pathological origin (including, but not limited to, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation), or sudden cardiac arrest
  6. Patients with contraindications against ribociclib according to the current SmPC
  7. Patients with hypersensitivity to active substance of ribociclib, peanuts, soya or one of the other ingredients
  8. Patients who are not eligible for the trial due to severe comorbidities other than those mentioned above or unavailability according to the treating physician
