Postmenopausal women with metastatic, recurrent or locally advanced breast cancer not amenable to curative treatment by surgery or radiotherapy.
Histological or cytological confirmation of hormone-receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer.
Disease refractory to non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors, defined as:
Recurrence while on, or within 12 months (365 days) of completion of adjuvant therapy with letrozole or anastrozole, or
Progression while on, or within one month (30 days) of completion of letrozole or anastrozole treatment for locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (ABC).

Patients must have had:
At least one lesion that could have been accurately measured in at least one dimension
