Clinical summary

Summary

This study will have an open-label study lead-in prior to the Phase 3 part of the trial.

During the study lead-in, two dose levels of targeted therapy (called palbociclib) in combination with the study drug (called ARV-471) will be explored in parallel. Eligible participants will be randomly allocated to either receive one of the two dose levels of palbociclib plus ARV-471. The purpose of the study lead-in is to determine the recommended Phase 3 dose of palbociclib to be administered in combination with ARV-471.

In the Phase 3 part of the trial, eligible participants will be randomly allocated to one of two treatment arms. 

In Arm A (Experimental), participants will receive ARV-471 (orally, once daily) plus palbociclib (orally, once daily).

In Arm B (Active Comparator), participants will receive standard of care therapy consisting of letrozole (orally, once daily) plus palbociclib (orally, once daily).
