Goetz and Choong Describe the Need for Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy in ER-positive Breast Cancer

Welcome to OncLive On Air^®! I’m your host today, Ashling Wahner.

OncLive On Air^® is a podcast from OncLive^®, which provides oncology professionals with the resources and information they need to provide the best patient care. In both digital and print formats, OncLive^® covers every angle of oncology practice, from new technology to treatment advances to important regulatory decisions.

In today’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Matthew P. Goetz, MD, and Grace Choong, MD, on research they presented at the 2022 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. Goetz is a consultant in the Division of Medical Oncology in the Department of Oncology, as well as a professor of oncology and a professor of pharmacology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Choong is a hematology/oncology fellow at Mayo Clinic.

In our exclusive interview, Drs Goetz and Choong discussed the potential for adjuvant endocrine therapy omission in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)–positive breast cancer who have a pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, how far the breast cancer treatment landscape has come in the past few decades, and how this research confirms the importance of adjuvant endocrine therapy in patients with ER-positive breast cancer with residual disease.
