While radiation therapy is not currently used in combination with CDK4/6 inhibitors in clinical trial protocols, findings from this study support future consideration of this approach in clinical studies. Read More ›

In this broad study of a diverse population, adverse events associated with the combination of ribociclib plus letrozole were manageable and consistent with previous phase 3 trials of the same combination, and adverse events of special interest markedly decreased over time. Read More ›


Adopting a maintenance program of everolimus combined with aromatase inhibitors, outcomes were not improved in patients with metastatic breast cancer who were deemed possible candidates for first-line chemotherapy. Read More ›

Recognition of the common use of chemotherapy and its potential negative impact on quality of life during the final month of life of patients with metastatic breast cancer is essential to efforts to mitigate this practice. Read More ›

Results of a second interim analysis demonstrate real-world outcomes of treatment with ribociclib, a selective CDK4/6 inhibitor in combination with endocrine therapy. Read More ›

The majority of patients with metastatic breast cancer receiving treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors had progression-free survival, behaving similarly when used as first-line therapy or after adjuvant hormonal therapy. Read More ›

For patients with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer, response rates for platinum-based chemotherapy were lower than historically observed in patients with triple-negative breast cancer, associated with poor outcomes. Read More ›

In a range of groups with PIK3CA alterations, recent findings demonstrate a clear and consistent clinical benefit of alpelisib when combined with fulvestrant, which was detected in circulating tumor DNA by next-generation sequencing. Read More ›

While progression-free survival was similar, overall survival was better in CDK4/6 inhibitor combinations as first-line therapy followed by everolimus combinations and chemotherapy. Read More ›
