New pill shows promise for advanced breast cancer – Real-World trial underway
NCT ID NCT05578053
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a new oral drug called dalpiciclib in 420 people with hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer. Researchers are watching how well it works and what side effects occur in everyday medical practice, not a strict lab setting. The goal is to see if it can help control the disease longer.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Dalpiciclib (a CDK4/6 inhibitor pill)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that dalpiciclib is a safe and effective option for controlling advanced HR+ breast cancer in everyday clinical practice.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less reliable. It is also early-stage and may not lead to a new standard of care.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. age ≥ 18 years, postmenopausal or premenopausal female or male patients, female patients must meet one of the following: a) previous bilateral oophorectomy, or age ≥ 60 years; b) age \< 60, natural postmenopausal status (defined as spontaneous cessation of regular menstruation for at least 12 consecutive months without other pathological or physiological causes), E2 and FSH at postmenopausal levels; c) premenopausal or perimenopausal female patients can also be enrolled, but must be willing to receive LHRH agonist therapy during the study; 2. pathological examination confirmed HR-positive male/female breast cancer patients, with evidence of focal recurrence or metastasis, not suitable for surgical resection or radiation therapy with the purpose of cure; 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0-2; 4. Serum pregnancy test must be performed within 28 days before enrollment in women of childbearing age and the result is negative,And male/female patients are willing to use a medically recognized highly effective contraceptive during the study and within 1 year after the last dose of study drug; 5. non-pregnant or non-lactating female patients; 6. do not participate in other ongoing studies at the same time ; 7. agreed by the patient himself or her legal representative and have signed an informed consent form, willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, study treatment plan, laboratory tests and other trial procedures. Exclusion Criteria: 1. any evidence of serious or uncontrolled systemic disease, including uncontrolled hypertension, active bleeding disorders, active infections, including hepatitis B, C, and human immunodeficiency virus, or severely impaired bone marrow reserve or organ function, including liver and kidney damage, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would greatly alter the balance of wind benefit/risk. 2. at the time of initiation of dalpiciclib treatment, the patient has not recovered from any CTCAE grade ≥ 3 toxicity caused by previous treatment 3. known history of hypersensitivity to dalpiciclib or excipients or drugs with similar chemical structure to dalpiciclib 4. patients who are considered unsuitable for inclusion by the investigator.
