Abstract Background: Endocrine therapy is the mainstay treatment for estrogen receptor (ER)-positive advanced breast cancer (BC). D-0502, an orally bioavailable selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), has previously demonstrated antitumor activity in various ER-positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer cell lines and xenograft models. The phase Ⅰ open-label study (NCT03471663) evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy of D-0502 as monotherapy and in combination with palbociclib in female patients with ER+ and HER2- breast cancer. The dose escalation part of D-0502 monotherapy (phase Ⅰa) has been presented before (SABCS 2021, PS11-26 Abstract #1348). Here, we present the results of D-0502 monotherapy from the dose-expansion stage in phase Ⅰb study. Methods: In the single-agent dose-expansion stage of phase Ⅰb study, patients (n=60) received D-0502 (400 mg QD) in 28-day cycles. Eligible patients included females with confirmed ER+, HER2- locally advanced, or metastatic BC; ECOG 0-1; measurable disease (RECIST v1.1); premenopausal or postmenopausal status; adequate hematologic, hepatic and renal functions. The primary objectives are to characterize the safety of D-0502. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity and the PK characteristic. Results: As of April 07, 2023, 60 female patients were enrolled and treated with 400mg single-agent D-0502. Median age was 57 (range: 32-82) years, 55.0% had an ECOG PS of 1. Disease progression resulting in treatment discontinuation occurred in 66.7% (40/60) of patients, and 6.7% (4/60) of patients discontinued treatment because of AEs. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported in 57 pts (95.0%), most of which were grade 1-2. No grade 4/5 TRAE has been reported. The incidence of serious adverse events was 6.7% (4/60). The most common (≥ 15%) TRAEs included vomiting, dizziness, nausea, increased aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase, anaemia, decreased appetite, diarrhoea, and malaise. In the 51 efficacy evaluable patients, 8 patients had partial response (PR) and 27 had stable disease (SD); objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 15.7% (8/51) and 68.6% (35/51), respectively. The clinical benefit rate (CBR: CR + PR + SD ≥24 weeks) was 47.1% (24/51). The median PFS was 5.6 months (95% Cl: 2.0, 10.0). Conclusion: D-0502 monotherapy showed promising antitumor activity and tolerable toxicity in female patients with ER+ and HER2- locally advanced or metastatic BC. Currently this treatment is being evaluated in a phase Ⅲ study for patients with ER+ and HER2- locally advanced or metastatic BC in China.
