Testing Whether Hormone Therapy With Ribociclib is as Effective as Chemotherapy Followed by Hormone Therapy With Ribociclib for the Treatment of High Anatomic Stage Breast Cancer With Low Recurrence Risk, The RxFINE-Low Trial

July 1, 2026 updated by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

A Phase III Trial of Rx Therapy Guided by Genomic Risk Assessment for High Anatomic Stage ER-pos/HER2-neg Breast Cancer With RS≤25 (RxFINE-Low)

This phase III trial compares standard of care hormone therapy plus ribociclib to chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy plus ribociclib for the treatment of patients with high anatomic stage breast cancer with low risk of the cancer returning (low risk recurrence). Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hormone therapy, with letrozole, anastrozole or exemestane, lowers the amount of estrogen made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Hormone therapy plus ribociclib may work as well as chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy plus ribociclib for the treatment of high anatomic stage breast cancer with low recurrence risk.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine whether optimal adjuvant endocrine therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitor is non-inferior to adjuvant chemotherapy followed by optimal endocrine therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitor as evaluated by invasive breast cancer-free survival (iBCFS).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare 5-year invasive disease-free survival (iDFS), distant disease-free survival (DDFS), distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS), recurrence-free interval (RFI), overall survival (OS), and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) in patients who receive adjuvant chemotherapy versus patients who do not.

II. To compare the short-term and long-term toxicity profiles of each arm.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To create a biorepository of tumor tissue and peripheral blood biospecimens for future research.

OUTLINE:

STEP 0: Patients undergo Oncotype DX risk recurrence testing. Patients with an Oncotype DX recurrence score of 0-25 proceed to step 1. Patients with a recurrence score of 26-100 do not continue on the study.

STEP 1: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A: Patients receive their physician's choice of standard of care chemotherapy. Patients then receive their physician's choice of standard of care hormone therapy with letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28 of each cycle, as well as ribociclib PO QD on days 1-21 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days for at least 60 months for hormone therapy and up to 3 years for ribociclib, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT) scan, bone scan, or fludeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-CT scan and may optionally undergo blood sample collection throughout the study.

ARM B: Patients receive their physician's choice of standard of care hormone therapy with letrozole, anastrozole, or exemestane PO QD on days 1-28 of each cycle and ribociclib PO QD on days 1-21 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days for at least 60 months for hormone therapy and up to 3 years for ribociclib, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT scan, bone scan, or FDG PET-CT scan and may optionally undergo blood sample collection throughout the study.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 12 months from randomization, every 6 months for years 1-5 from randomization, then every 12 months for years 5-10 from randomization.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Invasive breast cancer-free survival (iBCFS)
Time Frame: From randomization to invasive disease or death, up to 10 years
Invasive disease defined as the first occurrence of one of the following events: local invasive recurrence following mastectomy, local invasive recurrence in the ipsilateral breast following lumpectomy, regional recurrence, distant recurrence, or contralateral invasive breast cancer. The distribution of iBCFS will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The hazard ratio will be estimated using Cox proportional hazard model. The primary analysis will compare treatment groups defined by the randomized treatment assignment (intent-to-treat analysis). A secondary analysis will be performed comparing groups defined by treatment received (per protocol analysis).
From randomization to invasive disease or death, up to 10 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Invasive disease free survival
Time Frame: From randomization to the first occurrence of invasive disease or death, up to 10 years
Occurrence of invasive disease defined as the first occurrence of one of the following events: local invasive recurrence following mastectomy, local invasive recurrence in the ipsilateral breast following lumpectomy, regional recurrence, distant recurrence, contralateral invasive breast cancer, or second non-breast primary cancer (excluding squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin). Will be defined according to Standardized Definitions for Efficacy End Points (in Adjuvant Breast Cancer Trials) (STEEP) criteria and analyzed similarly as iBCFS.
From randomization to the first occurrence of invasive disease or death, up to 10 years
Distant disease free survival
Time Frame: Up to 10 years
Will be defined according to STEEP criteria and analyzed similarly as iBCFS.
Up to 10 years
Distant recurrence free survival
Time Frame: Up to 10 years
Will be defined according to STEEP criteria and analyzed similarly as iBCFS.
Up to 10 years
Recurrence-free interval
Time Frame: Up to 10 years
Will be defined according to STEEP criteria and analyzed similarly as iBCFS.
Up to 10 years
Overall survival
Time Frame: From randomization to death, up to 10 years
Will be defined according to STEEP criteria and analyzed similarly as iBCFS.
From randomization to death, up to 10 years
Breast cancer specific survival
Time Frame: Up to 10 years
Will be defined according to STEEP criteria and analyzed similarly as iBCFS.
Up to 10 years
Incidence of short term adverse events
Time Frame: Up to 10 years
Adverse events will be graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Will be summarized by treatment group and the NCI CTCAE worst grade.
Up to 10 years
Incidence of long term adverse events
Time Frame: Up to 10 years
Adverse events will be graded using the NCI CTCAE. Will be summarized by treatment group and the NCI CTCAE worst grade.
Up to 10 years
