RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: SERENA-1 (NCT03616587) is a Phase 1, multi-part, open-label study of camizestrant in pre- and post-menopausal women with ER+, HER2- advanced breast cancer. Parts A and B aim to determine the safety and tolerability of camizestrant monotherapy and define doses for clinical evaluation. Patients and Methods Women aged 18 years or older with metastatic or recurrent ER+, HER2- breast cancer, refractory (or intolerant) to therapy were assigned 25 mg up to 450 mg once daily (QD; escalation) or 75, 150, or 300 mg QD (expansion). Safety and tolerability, anti-tumor efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and impact on ESR1m circulating tumor (ct)DNA levels were assessed. RESULTS: By 9 March 2021, 108 patients received camizestrant monotherapy at 25-450 mg doses. Of these, 93 (86.1%) experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), 82.4% of which were grade 1 or 2. The most common TRAEs were visual effects (56%), (sinus) bradycardia (44%), fatigue (26%), and nausea (15%). There were no TRAEs grade 3 or higher, or treatment-related serious adverse events (TRSAEs) at doses ≤150 mg. Median tmax was achieved â¼2-4 hours post-dose at all doses investigated, with an estimated half-life of 20-23 hours. Efficacy was observed at all doses investigated, including in patients with prior CDK4/6 inhibitor and/or fulvestrant treatment, with and without baseline ESR1 mutations, and with visceral disease, including liver metastases. CONCLUSIONS: Camizestrant is a next-generation oral SERD and pure ER antagonist with a tolerable safety profile. The pharmacokinetics profile supports once-daily dosing, with evidence of pharmacodynamic and clinical efficacy in heavily pre-treated patients, regardless of ESR1m. This study established 75, 150 and 300 mg QD doses for Phase 2 testing (SERENA-2, NCT04214288 and SERENA-3, NCT04588298).
