Ribociclib plus endocrine therapy elicited statistically significant progression-free survival and overall survival benefits vs placebo plus endocrine therapy in patients with hormone receptor–positive/HER2-negative advanced breast cancer with visceral metastases, including those with liver metastases and multiple metastatic sites.

An analysis of patient-reported outcomes from the phase 2 KEYNOTE-522 trial demonstrated that pembrolizumab was not associated with effects on health-related quality of life in patients with triple-negative breast cancer.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan demonstrated a promising quality-of-life benefit for patients with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-low metastatic breast cancer, according to a report on patient-reported outcomes from the pivotal DESTINY-Breast04 trial.

Amcenestrant did not significantly improve progression-free survival over physician’s choice of endocrine monotherapy in patients with endocrine-resistant, estrogen receptor–positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer, but it did provide a benefit that was numerically comparable, according to data from the phase 2 AMEERA-3 trial.

Sacituzumab govitecan improved progression-free survival and overall response rate among patients with HER2-low or HER2 immunohistochemistry zero, hormone receptor­–positive metastatic breast cancer.

Single-agent lasofoxifene did not produce a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival vs fulvestrant for patients with estrogen receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer harboring ESR1 mutations.

The addition of abemaciclib to trastuzumab, with or without fulvestrant, provided a numerical overall survival improvement over standard-of-care trastuzumab plus chemotherapy in patients with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-positive advanced breast cancer, according to data from the monarcHER trial.

The combination of the CDK4/6 inhibitor dalpiciclib plus letrozole or anastrozole reduced the risk of disease progression by 49% vs chemotherapy alone in patients with treatment-naïve, hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer.

Adding oleclumab to durvalumab and chemotherapy did not increase the clinical benefit rate vs durvalumab plus chemotherapy alone as a first-line treatment for patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer.

Sacituzumab govitecan generated statistically significant and clinically meaningful benefits in overall survival and responses vs physician’s choice of treatment in pretreated patients with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who were resistant to endocrine therapy.

The addition of abemaciclib to a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor elicited an improvement in overall survival vs a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor alone in patients with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative, early-stage breast cancer.
