PALOMA-3

NCT01942135 📎

Regimen

Experimental
Palbociclib 125 mg daily (3/1 schedule) plus fulvestrant 500 mg (with OFS if premenopausal).
Control
Placebo plus fulvestrant 500 mg (with OFS if premenopausal).

Population

Women with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer whose disease progressed on prior endocrine therapy, including premenopausal with OFS.

Key finding

PALOMA-3 established palbociclib plus fulvestrant as a standard of care after progression on prior endocrine therapy in HR+/HER2- advanced disease. Included premenopausal women with OFS, extending the CDK4/6 evidence base. Final OS numerically favored palbociclib but missed significance, framing the CDK4/6-class OS debate.
