In ER+/HER2- mBC with identified ESR1 mutations following initial ET ± a CDK4/6iEMERALD: The largest global, prospective, randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial in patients with ESR1 mutations1-3

ESR1-MUTATED mBC STUDY POPULATION (N=228)*

  • Postmenopausal women and men
  • ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer
  • Progression on 1-2 lines of ET, at least one in combination with a CDK4/6i
  • ≤1 line of chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic disease
  • ECOG PS 0 or 1
Stratification factors:presence of visceral metastases, previous fulvestrant use

Randomized 1:1

ORSERDU 345 mg (n=115)

Progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity

ENDOCRINE MONOTHERAPY OF
INVESTIGATOR'S CHOICE (n=113)

Fulvestrant, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane

Progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity

PRIMARY ENDPOINT

  • PFS in the ESR1-mutated mBC population
    • Median PFS
Prespecified landmark PFS assessments:

3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months

CDK4/6i, cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor; ECOG PS, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status; ER+, estrogen receptor-positive; ESR1, estrogen receptor 1; ET, endocrine therapy; HER2-, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative; mBC, metastatic breast cancer; PFS, progression-free survival.

*This global phase 3 trial included patients with and without identified ESR1 mutations (N=478). Results presented within are from the ESR1-mutated mBC population only.1,2

PFS was assessed by an independent blinded imaging review committee.1


In ER+/HER2- mBC with identified ESR1 mutations following initial ET ± a CDK4/6iBaseline characteristics were consistent with patients commonly seen in clinical practice

Every patient in EMERALD received a prior CDK4/6i1

Key demographics for the ORSERDU arm
  • Visceral metastases: ~70% of patients2

  • One prior line of ET in the advanced or metastatic setting: ~64% of patients2

PRIMARY ENDPOINT IN EMERALD: PFS IN PATIENTS WITH ESR1-MUTATED mBC

PFS in Patients Taking ORSERDU™ (elacestrant) vs SOC Endocrine Monotherapy
  • A statistically significant difference in PFS was observed in the ITT population and in the subgroup of patients with ESR1-mutated mBC. An exploratory analysis of PFS in the 250 (52%) patients without ESR1 mutations showed an HR of 0.86 (95% CI: 0.63, 1.19), indicating that the improvement in the ITT population was primarily attributed to the results seen in the ESR1-mutated mBC population

CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; ITT, intent to treat; mPFS, median progression-free survival.

*mPFS was the primary endpoint. SOC endocrine monotherapy included either fulvestrant, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane.

95% CI: 2.2-7.3.

95% CI: 1.9-2.1.

Selected Important Safety Information

Warnings and Precautions

  • Dyslipidemia: Hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia occurred in patients taking ORSERDU at an incidence of 30% and 27%, respectively. The incidence of Grade 3 and 4 hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia were 0.9% and 2.2%, respectively. Monitor lipid profile prior to starting and periodically while taking ORSERDU.

Please see additional Important Safety Information below. Please see full Prescribing Information.
