Efficacy

FASLODEX 500 mg significantly increased progression-free survival1 (P=0.006): median progression-free survival was 6.5 months vs 5.4 months with FASLODEX 250 mg.

FASLODEX® (fulvestrant) Injection 500 mg Prolonged Progression-free Survival

*Progression-free survival is defined as the time between randomization and the earliest of progression or death from any cause.

  • There was no significant difference in overall survival (HR=0.84; 95% CI: 0.69-1.03) (P=0.091). The median overall survival was 25.1 months with FASLODEX 500 mg and 22.8 months with 250 mg2
    • Preplanned second survival analysis will occur when approximately 75% of patients have had an event2
  • Objective response rates were not significantly different between FASLODEX 500 mg (13.8%) and 250 mg (14.6%) (HR=0.94; 95% CI: 0.57-1.55) (P=0.795)4
    • Only patients with measurable disease at baseline were analyzed; FASLODEX 500 mg (n=240), FASLODEX 250 mg (n=261)
    • Objective response rates in the full patient population were 9.1% and 10.2% for the FASLODEX 500 mg and 250 mg arms, respectively

Objective response rate was defined as the proportion of patients with complete response or partial response.

In this analysis, hazard ratio <1.00 indicates that FASLODEX 500 mg is associated with a longer time to progression than FASLODEX 250 mg.

  • Predefined subgroups were studied for progression-free survival based on PgR status, visceral involvement, level of responsiveness to last endocrine therapy prior to FASLODEX, measurable disease, and age2,4
  • This representation was not designed to assess efficacy in individual subgroups but rather to visualize consistency with the "All patients" results
