Randomized Phase II Study to Assess PD 0332991 in Breast Cancer

Randomized Short-term Pre-surgical Study to Assess the Effects of PD 0332991 in Early Breast Cancer Patients

This is a Phase II study trying to identify whether short term treatment with PD0332991 yields anti-proliferative response -defined by a low level of Ki67 expression (IHC) at surgery- or induces senescence as determined by SABG expression (IHC) in tumors from patients with early breast cancer non-candidates for neoadjuvant hormonotherapy or chemotherapy, as compared to no treatment.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Signed written informed consent
2. Female patients aged 18 years or older.
3. Histologically or cytologically confirmed untreated invasive carcinoma of the breast irrespective of HER2 and ER status
4. No personal history of breast cancer within the last 5 years
5. Candidates for initial breast surgery, with a minimum size of 15 mm measured by breast US. Bilateral and multifocal tumors are allowed, assuming tumor evaluations and pre- and post-treatment biopsies are performed in the same target lesion.

7. High proliferative tumor as defined by either Grade 3 or Ki67 ≥20% 8. No evidence of metastatic disease. 9. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0/1. 10. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of at least 50% 11. Negative pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential within 14 days prior to treatment initiation (premenopausal or less than 12 months of amenorrhea post-menopause, and who have not undergone surgical sterilization).

12. For women of childbearing potential who are sexually active, agreement to use a highly effective, non-hormonal form of contraception or two effective forms of non-hormonal contraception during and for at least 6 months post-treatment.

13. Patients must be affiliated to a social security system

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients non-candidate for upfront breast surgery or candidate for neoadjuvant chemotherapy or hormonotherapy.
2. Patients with previously treated breast cancer during the last 5 years or receiving another concomitant anticancer treatment like chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine

4. Known hypersensibility to PD0332991 or any of its components. 5. Difficulty to swallow oral medication 6. Serious uncontrolled concomitant disease that would put the patient at high risk for treatment-related complications.

7. Patient whose general clinical condition does not consider postponing surgery 8. Inadequate organ function, evidenced by the following laboratory results:

• Absolute neutrophil count <1,500 cells/mm3

• Platelet count <100,000 cells/mm3

• Hemoglobin <9 g/dL

• Total bilirubin greater than 1,5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless the patient has documented Gilbert's syndrome)

• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST [SGOT]) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT [SGPT]) >2.5 x ULN

• Serum creatinine >2.0 mg/dL and/or 177 μmol/L clearance creatinine <50mL/min (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault method)

• International normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) or partial thromboplastin time (PTT) >1.5 x ULN (unless on therapeutic coagulation) 9. Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic >150 mmHg and/or diastolic > 100 mmHg) or clinically significant (i.e. active) cardiovascular disease: cerebrovascular accident/stroke or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to first study medication; unstable angina; CHF of New York Heart Association (NYHA) Grade II or higher; or serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication.

  10. Patients with a history of long-QT syndrome or documented family history of long-QT syndrome.

  11. QTc >470 12. serum potassium level < LLN 13. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including but not limited to, known active infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or C virus or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.

  14. Assessed by the investigator to be unable or unwilling to comply with the requirements of the protocol.

  15. Pregnant or breastfeeding patients
