Virginia Kaklamani, MD, DSc, and Heather McArthur, MD, explore the evolving landscape of HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer management, focusing on the clinical implications of ESR1 and PIK3CA mutations, the role of biomarker testing, the impact of novel therapies and combination strategies, and the importance of personalized treatment approaches in improving patient outcomes.
EP. 1: Prevalence and Testing Strategies for ESR1
June 25th 2024Virginia Kaklamani, MD, DSc, and Heather McArthur, MD, explore the clinical significance of *ESR1* mutations in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer patients, including their impact on disease prognosis, treatment outcomes, and the increasing prevalence of these mutations with each line of endocrine therapy, ultimately informing their therapeutic approach.
EP. 2: Evolution of Testing Strategies for ESR1
June 25th 2024The key opinion leaders (KOLs) review the current testing methods for detecting ESR1 mutations and explore the existing strategies employed to overcome or delay the development of these mutations and the associated endocrine resistance in patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer.
