Study design details

Main study objective

The main objectives of this study is to evaluate the safety of alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant in the described population in the real-world setting.
As per the risk management plan approved by the European Medicines Agency, this study will primarily focus on the risk of hyperglycemia and the risk factors for hyperglycemia.

Outcomes

- To Assess the incidence of hyperglycemia (adverse event of special interest, AESI) observed during follow-up of patients treated with alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant,
- To assess the risk factors of hyperglycemia,
- To estimate the incidence of complications of a non-compensated hyperglycemic state, such as ketoacidosis and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar non-ketotic syndrome,
- To assess the incidence of osteonecrosis of the jaw, and the risk factors for ONJ, To describe other AESIs, including GI toxicity, rash, hypersensitivity, pancreatitis, pneumonitis and SCARs

Data analysis plan

Data analysis will include:
• cumulative incidence proportions estimated at different time points to assess specific events of interest
• descriptive analyses of relevant risk factors
• logistic regression to assess risk factors where appropriate
• where relevant, risk factors will be assessed taking time into consideration
• overall number and incidence proportion of patients with adverse events of special interest, will be summarized with 95% confidence intervals
• no statistical hypotheses will be tested in this study
• where inferential statistical methods are used their results are considered to be purely descriptive.
