A Non-interventional Study for Kisqali (Ribociclib) in Combination With an Aromatase Inhibitor for Adjuvant Treatment in Patients With HR+/HER2- Early Breast Cancer at High Risk of Recurrence to Evaluate Real-world Effectiveness, Safety Profile, Patient Compliance and Quality of Life
A Non-interventional Study for Kisqali (Ribociclib) in Combination With an Aromatase Inhibitor for Adjuvant Treatment in Patients With HR+/HER2- Early Breast Cancer at High Risk of Recurrence to Evaluate Real-world Effectiveness, Safety Profile, Patient Compliance and Quality of Life
This non-interventional observational study evaluates the real-world effectiveness and safety profile of ribociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor for adjuvant treatment in patients with HR+/HER2- early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence, as well as patient compliance and quality of life.
This non-interventional study aims to provide information on real-world effectiveness, safety and tolerability, management of adverse events, QoL and patient compliance of patients with HR+/HER2- early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence treated with ribociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) ± luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) with curative intent according to the current effective local summary of product characteristics.
In order to put the results of patients treated with ribociclib into perspective, socio-economic data, data on QoL and patient compliance will also be collected from patients treated with abemaciclib + endocrine therapy (ET) ± LHRH as described in the current effective local summary of product characteristics.
To understand reasons for treatment decision, and to analyze the clinical adoption of ribociclib + AI ± LHRH after EU approval over time, baseline data will be collected from cohorts of ribociclib + AI ± LHRH, abemaciclib + ET ± LHRH, and additionally from patients treated with ET monotherapy ± LHRH and analyzed cross-sectionally.
The study is planned to be rolled out into a broad set of German and Austrian breast centers and gynecological practices to describe clinical routine in a representative subset of the local healthcare eco-system. It will gather insights into the potential benefits and risks associated with ribociclib + AI ± LHRH in the adjuvant treatment of HR+/HER2- eBC patients at high risk of recurrence. This knowledge will inform about clinical decision-making and contribute to improved patient outcomes in routine practice.
Inclusion Criteria:
Histological diagnosis of HR+/HER2- early breast cancer with curative intent
Patients must have an indication for a treatment with ribociclib + AI ± LHRH as described in the current SmPC/"Fachinformation" of ribociclib (to be included into the cohorts of ribociclib + AI ± LHRH and ET mono ± LHRH) or abemaciclib + ET ± LHRH as described in the current SmPC/"Fachinformation" of abemaciclib (to be included into the abemaciclib + ET ± LHRH cohort) in the adjuvant setting
Before enrollment the treating physician has made the decision in accordance with the patient to treat the patient with either
Baseline = for ribociclib + AI ± LHRH cohort: date of therapy start; for abemaciclib + ET ± LHRH cohort: date of therapy start; for ET mono ± LHRH cohort: within 4 weeks after therapy start or within 4 weeks after last non-endocrine based therapy, whichever is last.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patient is simultaneously participating in any investigational trial or simultaneously participating in another Novartis-sponsored non-interventional study with ribociclib.
