  • a negative in-situ hybridization test or an IHC status of 0, 1+, or 2+,
  • if IHC is 2+, a negative in-situ hybridization (FISH, CISH, or SISH) test is required (based on the most recently analyzed tissue sample and all tested by a local laboratory).
  • 7. Local therapy of breast cancer (if adjuvant treatment or planned if neoadjuvant treatment) according to current guidelines.
  • Note: This may include radiotherapy of breast cancer.
  • Prior to RANDOMIZATION in the study 8. No evidence of distant metastasis (confirmed prior to randomization by, preferentially, CT thorax / abdomen, X-ray chest, ultrasound liver, bone scan, or PET-CT).

Patient is classified as intermediate risk according to the ADAPT intermediate-risk definition (i) (as follows), or (only in case of missing Oncotype DX or Ki-67 response data), according to the clinical intermediate-risk definition (ii) (as follows).
  • (i). ADAPT intermediate-risk definition: Patient meets one of the following criteria:
  • c/pN0, RS ≤ 25 with luminal-B-like (Ki-67 ≥20% or G3) or c/pT2-4 without endocrine response (post-endocrine Ki-67 > 10 %)

Note: Postmenopausal patients with pT1-2/pN0 disease and RS < 25, as well as premenopausal patients with pT1-2/pN0 disease and RS<16, are recommended to be treated by endocrine therapy alone and not to be randomized (at investigator´s discretion).

  • cT2-4
  • c/pN positive
  • G3 and / or Ki-67 ≥ 20% Note: Inclusion of a patient according to "clinical intermediate risk" is permitted only in case of missing baseline Oncotype DX® or Ki-67 decrease. In this case, investigators will follow a risk-based, step-wise assessment process.

About this study

Official title: Adjuvant Dynamic Marker - Adjusted Personalized Therapy Comparing Endocrine Therapy Plus Ribociclib Versus Chemotherapy in Intermediate Risk, HR+/HER2- Early Breast Cancer

The study investigates, whether the patient group with intermediate-risk early breast cancer benefits from treatment with ribociclib in combination with endocrine therapy compared to standard-of-care chemotherapy (followed by adjuvant endocrine therapy).

Read the detailed description

The WSG ADAPT trial program is one of the first new generation trials addressing the issue of individualization of (neo)-adjuvant decision-making in early breast cancer (EBC) in a subtype-specific manner. The first WSG ADAPT umbrella trial (NCT01779206) aimed to establish early predictive molecular surrogate markers for response after a short 3-week induction treatment.

The goals of the WSG ADAPT trial program - early response assessment and subtype-specific therapy tailoring to those patients who are most likely to benefit - have contributed to the very positive national and international feedback to the ADAPT concept as a whole.

The aim of this ADAPTcycle phase-III-trial is to investigate whether the intermediate-risk patient group identified during the screening phase derives additional benefit from treatment with ribociclib in combination with ET compared to chemotherapy (followed by adjuvant ET).

    distant disease-free survival (dDFS) in the ribociclib + ET-group to demonstrate survival rate >92%

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. overall survival (OS) 95 % CI

    95 %-confidence interval (CI) for OS in both arms

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

  2. distant disease-free survival (dDFS) 95 % CI

    95 %-confidence interval (CI) for dDFS in both arms

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

  3. QoL

    quality of life (QoL) and correlation to treatment-related symptoms measured by EQ-VAS and triggered symptom questionnaire,

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

  4. treatment adherence

    treatment adherence measured by drug intake compared between treatment arms

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

  5. pathological complete response (pCR)

    Pathological response rate (defined as ypT0/is/ypN0), as well as further definitions (ypT0/ypN0; ypT0/is/any ypN, near pCR (ypT1a/any ypN)), in neoadjuvant treated patients

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

  6. clinical response rate

    clinical response rate (by palpation, ultrasound, and further methods) compared between treatment arms

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

  7. rate of breast-conservation therapy

    prevalence of breast conservation therapy vs. mastectomy compared between treatment arms

    Measured: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) (time frame: at end of study, on average 5 years after start of treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04055493, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Oct 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
