Plain-language summary

This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial compares the usual treatment alone (fulvestrant) to using binimetinib plus the usual treatment in patients with hormone receptor positive breast cancer that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and has an NF1 genetic change. Fulvestrant is a hormonal therapy that binds to estrogen receptors in tumor cells, resulting in estrogen receptor destruction and decreased estrogen binding, which may inhibit the growth of estrogen-sensitive tumor cells. Binimetinib is a targeted therapy that may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. The addition of binimetinib to fulvestrant in breast cancers with an NF1 genetic change could increase the percentage of tumors that shrink as well as lengthen the time that the tumors remain stable (without progression) as compared to fulvestrant alone.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patient must have enrolled onto EAY191 and must have been given a treatment assignment to ComboMATCH to EAY191-N2 based on the presence of an actionable mutation as defined in EAY191 * The patient must be enrolled on the ComboMATCH Master Registration Trial EAY191 * Note: Patients must fulfill all eligibility criteria outlined in the ComboMATCH Registration Trial EAY191 at the time of registration to EAY191-N2. This includes submission of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data from one of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) credentialed designated laboratories for all potential patients prior to treatment trial assignment. Copy number and allele frequency cutoff as per the Registration protocol * Patients must have disease that can be safely biopsied and agree to a pre-treatment biopsy or, if disease cannot be safely biopsied, have archival tissue available from within 12 months prior to the date of registration on the ComboMATCH registration trial (EAY191) * Please note the current actionable marker of interest (aMOI)/actionable alteration list for this treatment trial can be found on the Cancer Trial Support Unit (CTSU) ComboMATCH Registration protocol page * Please note novel/Dynamic aMOI can be submitted for review per the process described in the ComboMATCH Registration protocol * A COMBOMATCH TREATMENT TRIAL EAY191-N2 ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: * The patient or a legally authorized representative must provide study-specific informed consent prio…

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.

What they're measuring

Timeframe: The duration between randomization and progression or death from all cause, whichever happens first, assessed up to 5 years

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (Cohort II)
