Trial Outcomes

Best Overall (Disease) Response

Based on WHO tumor measurement and response criteria [1], measured from the start of treatment across all time points until disease progression or the end of 6 cycles of neoadjuvant therapies, whichever comes first. Response was determined by the IBCSG Head of Medical Affairs. An internal review (IR) form was created to record the final determination on best overall response. Confirmation of partial or complete response by an additional scan was not required in this trial. Best overall response was assessed based on changes in tumor size from baseline to the assessments after 3 and after 6 cycles (denoted as day 1 of cycle 4 and prior to surgery respectively) as measured physically by caliper or ruler and as measured by breast tumor imaging (i.e., bilateral mammography and breast ultrasound). (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: From day 1 of cycle 1 across all time points until disease progression

Interventionpercentage of patients (Number)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol46.2
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol44.0

Ki67 Proliferation Marker Changes

The percent change in Ki67 expression from pre-treatment diagnostic (baseline) biopsy to surgery, calculated as (surgery-baseline)/baseline*100. (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: Before day1 of cycle 1 and surgery

Interventionpercentage change (Median)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol-10.0
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol-8.0

Patient-reported Symptoms (PRS) Outcomes

The patient-reported symptoms (PRS) will be assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Endocrine Subscale (FACT-ES) comprising 18 items (each has score range from 0 to 4) with a possible minimum total score of 0 and maximum total score of 72 (72 is best). Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) guidelines will be used for scoring and interpretation of the FACT-ES total score. (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: At baseline, day 1 of cycle 2 and cycle 4 and prior to surgery; cycle 4 reported

Interventionunits on a scale (Number)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol64
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol62

Percentage of Patients Who Underwent Breast-Conserving Surgery (BCS)

Whether or not patient undergoes BCS (per Surgery form). (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: During surgery, an average of 2 hours

Interventionpercentage of patients (Number)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol42.3
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol52.2

Percentage of Patients With Node-negative Disease at Surgery

The number of lymph nodes assessed at surgery minus the number of positives nodes identified, equal to zero. (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: During surgery, an average of 2 hours

Interventionpercentage of patients (Number)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol34.6
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol43.5

Preoperative Endocrine Prognostic Index (PEPI) Score

Preoperative Endocrine Prognostic Index (PEPI) is the sum of the risk points (tumor size, nodal status, Ki67 level, ER status) with a 0-12 score representing the best prognostic feature (0 being the best score; 12 being the worst score), as previously determined to be associated with recurrence-free survival. (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: After 24 weeks or the time of surgery

Interventionscores on a scale (Median)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol6.5
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol6.0

Time to Optimal Ovarian Function Suppression

Time from the first injection of degarelix or triptorelin to the first assessment of centrally assessed 17-β-estradiol (E2) level in the range of optimal ovarian function suppression (≤2.72 pg/mL or ≤10 pmol/L) during the 6 cycles of neoadjuvant treatments. (NCT02005887)
Timeframe: up to 24 weeks

Interventiondays (Median)
Arm A: Triptorelin + Letrozol14
Arm B: Degarelix + Letrozol3

Number of Participants With Urine and Serum NTx and Serum CTx Within Normal Range at 12 Months

17 women with early breast cancer receiving adjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) therapy were treated with a single 5 mg IV dose of zoledronic acid. Urine and serum NTx and serum CTx were measured at baseline and month 12. (NCT00712985)
Timeframe: One year

Interventionparticipants (Number)
Zoledronic Acid 5 mg IV13

Timeframe: 16 Weeks

Interventionpercentage of genes expressed (Median)
Fulvestrant Without Enzalutamide85
Fulvestrant With Enzalutamide80

Disease-free Survival

Disease-free survival is defined as the time in months from the start of fulvestrant until documented disease progression or death. Complete and partial response for the single drug arm and combination of enzalutamide/fulvestrant arm separately. (NCT02955394)
Timeframe: 15 months

Interventionmonths (Median)
Fulvestrant Without Enzalutamide3.6
Fulvestrant With Enzalutamide3.7

Number of Patients With a PEPI Score Equal to Zero at Post Treatment

"The preoperative endocrine prognostic index (PEPI) is a validated measure of pathologic response to endocrine therapy. It is a model that combines estrogen receptor (ER) level, pathologic tumor site, nodal status, and Ki67 score at the time of surgery to predict subsequent risk of cancer recurrence.~PEPI scoring is typically discretized into three risk groups: 0 (low risk of recurrence and best outcome), 1-3 (intermediate risk), and >= 4 (high risk). This study was concerned only with the distinction between zero and non-zero PEPI scores. Zero is the minimum score, and there is no maximum score. Lower scores are better." (NCT02955394)
Timeframe: 16 Weeks

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
