Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a multicenter, open-label clinical study to evaluate the safety and antitumor activity of FCN-437c in combination with Fulvestrant for the treatment of post-menopausal female patients with ER+ and HER2- advanced breast cancer, FCN-437c in combination with Letrozole + Goserelin for the treatment of pre-menopausal female patients with ER+ and HER2- advanced breast cancer, and to evaluate the PK characteristics of the FCN-437c combination therapies.

This study is consist of two cohorts, Cohort 1: FCN-437c in combination with Fulvestrant (1st or 2nd line treatment for postmenopausal ER+, HER2-advanced breast cancer); Cohort 2: FCN-437c in combination with Letrozole + Goserelin (1st line treatment for premenopausal ER+, HER2- advanced breast cancer). Thirty patients will be enrolled in each cohort, for a total of 60 patients.

Tumor Assessment:

Tumor evaluation will be performed every 8 weeks (±7 days) according to RECIST version 1.1 until disease progression, withdrawal of informed consent, or death; for patients who discontinue the drug due to toxicity, imaging evaluation is required until disease progression.

End of Treatment and End of Study:

End of Study (EOS) is defined as 2 years after the last patient's first dose or the end of treatment (whichever is earlier). At the end of the study, the investigator will decide whether the patients whose disease has not progressed shall continue taking FCN-437c and other combination agents or not based on clinical benefit.

Cohort 1: Post-menopausal patients diagnosed with ER+, HER2- advanced breast cancer, who have not received prior systemic therapy for advanced breast cancer, or who have disease progression determined by imaging assessment during their 1st line endocrine therapy; Cohort 2: Pre-menopausal patients diagnosed with ER+, HER2- advanced breast cancer, who have not received prior systemic therapy for advanced breast cancer;

Inclusion Criteria

* Subjects are eligible to be included in the study only if they meet all of the following criteria:

1. Patients with advanced breast cancer diagnosed as ER+, HER2-; ER+ is defined as histologically or cytologically confirmed ER+ with positive nuclear staining of estrogen receptor tumor cells ≥ 1% by immunohistochemistry; HER2- is defined as histologically or cytologically confirmed HER2-, with a negative ISH test result or an IHC test result of 0, 1+, or 2+, and if the IHC test result is 2+, the ISH test result must be negative;

Cohort 1 (FCN-437c in combination with Fulvestrant): post-menopausal patients with advanced breast cancer, who are not suitable for curative surgical resection or radiation therapy and have not previously received systemic therapy, or have disease progression supported by imaging evaluation during their first-line endocrine therapy (including anti-estrogen or aromatase inhibitors).
