Plain-language summary
This study is a phase I, single arm, open-label trial of PD0332991 in combination with Paclitaxel in patients with Rb-expressing metastatic breast cancer. Up to 20 patients are anticipated to be enrolled to reach the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of PD0332991 in combination with Paclitaxel. Once the MTD is established, an additional expanded cohort of 10 patients will be enrolled at that dose to establish the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D), obtain additional safety data and perform exploratory biomarker studies.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Patient must have histologically or cytologically-confirmed metastatic breast cancer. Any ER, PR or Her2 status is allowed.
* Tumor must express Retinoblastoma (Rb) protein, as defined as any measureable staining by immunohistochemistry
* Male or female and \> 18 years of age on the day of signing informed consent.
* Patient must have received \< prior cytotoxic regimens for metastatic breast cancer. This does not include cytoxic regimens used in the adjuvant setting.
* Performance status of 0-1 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Scale and life expectancy \> 3 months.
* patient on the dose-escalation portion of the trial must have evaluable disease, defined as either measurable (by RECIST) or non-measurable disease (e.g. bone mets, pleural effusion or lymphangitic spread). Measurable disease is required for patients in the expanded RP2D cohort.
* The subject must have adequate organ function, defined as follows:
Bilirubin \< 1.5 x upper normal limit or calculated creatinine clearance \> 60 mL/min, and for subjects without liver metastases: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \< 2.5 x upper normal limit
* For subjects without extensive bone metastases: alkaline phosphatase levels \< 2.5 x upper normal limit .
* For subjects with extensive bone metastases: alkaline phosphatase levels \< 5 x upper normal limit .

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
