Elacestrant vs Elacestrant Plus a CDK4/6 Inhibitor in Patients With ERpositive/HER2-negative Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer

Is NCT06062498 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies elacestrant, palbociclib, abemaciclib, ribociclib for estrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer.

Phase 2RecruitingNorthwestern UniversityNCT06062498Data as of May 2026

Treatment: elacestrant, palbociclib, abemaciclib, ribociclibBreast cancer is not only the leading cause of cancer in women, but also the leading cause of cancer deaths in women. Estrogen receptor-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer is the most prevalent breast cancer subtype. Endocrine therapy is the mainstay of treatment; however, due to the varied nature of the disease, development of resistance to this therapeutic approach is very common in the metastatic setting. The purpose of this study is to see whether the effectiveness of elacestrant can be enhanced by combining it with a targeted agent such as a CDK4/6 inhibitor to treat patients with ER+/HER2- or metastatic breast cancer with prior exposure to a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
