The study aims to compare the amount of the drug letrozole that gets into the bloodstream after multiple doses of the quarterly injection Letrozole SIE, versus multiple doses of the standard oral daily tablet of letrozole (Femara®), in women who have gone through menopause and have received treatment for hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer. Participants must have completed at least five years of hormone therapy with at least two of those years with letrozole before starting their participation in the study. Women who have completed four years of hormone therapy are also eligible if their doctor considers them at low risk of cancer returning.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the steady-state comparative bioavailability of quarterly injectable Letrozole SIE compared to United States (US)-sourced oral Femara® in the US-sourced arm and of quarterly injectable Letrozole SIE compared to European Union (EU)-sourced oral Femara® in the EU-sourced arm, in post-menopausal women treated with endocrine therapy for hormone-receptor positive (HR+) early breast cancer (EBC). The study also aims to characterize the elimination phase of Letrozole SIE after multiple doses.
The study consists of four periods: Screening, Treatment Period 1 (TP1), Treatment Period 2 (TP2) and Extension Period. After the Screening Period, participants will be randomized to two different arms: US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® for 14 days to achieve the steady-state concentrations of letrozole in TP1. After receiving the latest oral letrozole dose, participants from both arms will start TP2. In TP2, quarterly injectable Letrozole SIE will be administered to achieve steady-state. After TP2, a subset of participants (up to 60 participants, regardless of which study arm they belong to) will continue in the study for the assessment of the elimination phase of Letrozole SIE after multiple doses during the Extension Period.
It is estimated that approximately 120 subjects should be randomized.

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
US-sourced Femara® 2.5 mg/day oral for 14 days (treatment period 1) + quarterly injectable Letrozole SIE (treatment period 2)
EU-sourced oral Femara® 2.5 mg/day for 14 days (treatment period 1) + quarterly injectable Letrozole SIE (treatment period 2)
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE until Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® on Day 14 TP1
Individual and mean area under the concentration-time curve within a dosing interval at steady-state
Time frame: From the time of obtaining signed informed consent until the final follow-up visit on Day 281 (or Day 421 for the subset of participants in the Extension Period)
Incidence of adverse events (type, severity, seriousness, and relationship to study drug), including the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), the incidence of serious TEAEs, and the incidence of TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation.
Time frame: At pre-dose and 1 hour after each Letrozole SIE administration in TP2
Incidence of injection site reactions
Time frame: From baseline TP2 to the follow-up visit on Day 281
Changes in injection-related pain score by numeric rating scale (NRS). The NRS evaluates the intensity of injection-related pain experienced at the time of Letrozole SIE administration. It is scored from 0 to 10 (0 meaning no pain and 10 meaning the worst possible pain).
Time frame: From screening to Day 281 TP2
Changes in bone mineral density BMD by DXA
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE until Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® at Day 14 TP1

Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE until Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® at Day 14 TP1
Minimum drug concentration at steady-state
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE at Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® at Day 14 TP1
Maximum plasma concentration at steady-state
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE at Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® at Day 14 TP1
Individual and mean letrozole blood percent fluctuation
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE until Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® at Day 14 TP1
Time to peak observed concentration
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE until Day 281 TP2 and after multiple doses of US-sourced oral Femara® or EU-sourced oral Femara® at Day 14 TP1
Characterization of the steady-state
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in TP2 until Day 421 in the Extension Period
Individual and mean Terminal rate constant (λz) after multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in the subset of participants in the Extension Period
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in TP2 until Day 421 in the Extension Period
Individual and mean Terminal half-life after multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in the subset of participants in the Extension Period
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in TP2 until Day 421 in the Extension Period
Individual and mean Area under the curve extrapolated to infinity after multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in the subset of participants in the Extension Period
Time frame: After multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in TP2 until Day 421 in the Extension Period
Percentage of area under the curve that is extrapolated after multiple doses of Letrozole SIE in the subset of participants in the Extension Period
Time frame: From screening to the final follow-up visit on Day 281 (or Day 421 for the subset of participants in the Extension Period)
Analysis of letrozole exposure and hormone suppression measuring the sex hormone estrone (E1), sulfate estrone (SE1), and estradiol (E2) plasma levels.
