What was measured

FACT is a modular approach to assess participant health-related quality of life using a 'core' set of questions (FACT-G) as well as a cancer site-specific module. The FACT-G is a 27-item compilation of general questions divided into 4 domains: Physical Well-Being, Social/Family Well-Being, Emotional Well-Being, and Functional Well-Being. The FACT-B consisted of the FACT-G (27-item) and a breast-specific module: a 10-item instrument designed to assess participant concerns relating to breast cancer. For all questions, participants were asked to respond to a five-level scale where 0=not at all, 1=a little bit, 2=somewhat, 3=quite a bit, and 4=very much. FACT-B total score = Physical Well-Being + Social/Family Well-Being + Emotional Well-Being + Functional Well-Being + Breast Cancer Subscale. As each of the items ranges from 0-4, the range of possible scores is 0-144, with 0 being the worst possible score and 144 the best.

Analysis population: Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Analysis Set is a subset of ITT participants, who had both baseline and at least one follow-up PRO assessment.

Groups in this outcome

Palbociclib Plus Letrozole

Participants received letrozole 2.5 milligram (mg) orally QD (once daily) combined with palbociclib 125 mg QD for 21 days of every-28-day cycle, followed by 7 days off treatment.

Placebo Plus Letrozole

Participants received letrozole 2.5 mg orally QD combined with placebo QD for 21 days of every-28-day cycle, followed by 7 days off treatment.
