The purpose of this study is to compare elacestrant with standard endocrine therapy in people with node-positive, estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), HER2-negative early breast cancer who are considered to have a high risk of recurrence. Participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups. One group will switch to elacestrant, and the other group will continue standard endocrine therapy. The study is designed to determine whether elacestrant can reduce the risk of the cancer coming back compared with standard endocrine therapy. Researchers will also evaluate safety, side effects, patient-reported quality of life, blood levels of elacestrant, and blood-based markers that may help explain how the treatment works. Elacestrant is an oral endocrine therapy called a selective estrogen receptor degrader, or SERD. It blocks and reduces estrogen receptors on breast cancer cells. Elacestrant is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for certain patients with advanced or metastatic ER+, HER2-negative breast cancer after prior endocrine therapy. Its use in this early breast cancer study is investigational.
