Background: Camizestrant is a next-generation oral selective estrogen receptor (ER) degrader and pure ER antagonist being investigated in early and advanced breast cancer (BC). In postmenopausal women with advanced ER-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative BC and disease recurrence or progression on or after ≤1 endocrine therapy (ET) in the advanced setting, camizestrant significantly prolonged progression-free survival compared with fulvestrant in the Phase 2 SERENA-2 trial.

Camizestrant may also provide benefit in the early BC setting. Following locoregional therapy (surgery ± radiotherapy), standard adjuvant treatment of ET with or without chemotherapy and/or a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) has shown significant benefit in decreasing the risk of recurrence of stage I–III ER-positive/HER2-negative BC. However, BC recurrence as incurable metastatic disease is still common. Thus, adjuvant therapeutic options with improved clinical outcomes are needed.

The CAMBRIA-2 study (NCT05952557) aims to assess whether upfront camizestrant can improve outcomes compared with standard ET as adjuvant treatment in patients with ER-positive/HER2-negative early BC with an intermediate-high or high risk of recurrence after definitive locoregional therapy. Trial design: This ongoing Phase 3, randomized, open-label study is enrolling women (pre-, peri-, or postmenopausal) and men with ER-positive/HER2-negative (HER2-negative status defined as immunohistochemistry 0, or 1+, or in situ hybridization-negative) early BC who are at intermediate-high or high risk of recurrence (as defined in the protocol) after having completed definitive locoregional therapy (surgery ± radiotherapy) ± (neo)adjuvant systemic chemotherapy, and who have no evidence of disease. Patients may have received up to 12 weeks of (neo)adjuvant ET prior to randomization. Patients are randomized (1:1) to receive camizestrant 75 mg ± abemaciclib ± luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist or standard ET of the investigator’s choice (any aromatase inhibitor or tamoxifen) ± abemaciclib ± LHRH agonist for up to 7 years. The primary endpoint is invasive BC-free survival (IBCFS) (Standardized Definitions for Efficacy End Points [STEEP] 2.0 criteria). Secondary endpoints include invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and distant relapse-free survival (DRFS) (STEEP 2.0 criteria), overall survival, safety, and health-related quality of life. Primary endpoint analysis will use a stratified log-rank test adjusting for stratification factors, assuming a two-sided significance level of 5%. Approximately 5500 patients will be randomized.
