The authors conclude that: Tamoxifen at the dose of 5 mg/day can halve the incidence of recurrence in women with operated hormone sensitive DCIS or LCIS with a limited toxicity, providing a valid treatment option in women with disease. In addition, this study has important implications for the preventive therapy of high risk unaffected women.

The authors conclude that: Adding palbociclib to letrozole markedly enhanced the suppression of malignant cell proliferation as assessed by Ki67 but did not substantially increase the clinical response of primary ER+ breast cancer over a 14-week period. Concurrent reductions in cell death may have reduced the speed of tumor shrinkage.

The authors conclude that: This meta-analysis will provide the most reliable possible summary of the available evidence to inform clinicians on the efficacy of extending AI therapy compared to stopping AI after about 5 years of endocrine therapy in preventing disease recurrence and death from breast cancer, both overall and in different categories of women.

The authors conclude that: The extension of treatment with an adjuvant aromatase inhibitor (anastrozole) to 10 years resulted in significantly higher rates of disease-free survival and distant disease-free survival than those with no additional anastrozole, but the rate of overall survival was not different between two groups. Our study shows that it is safe and beneficial for postmenopausal patients with hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer to take an anastrozole as adjuvant therapy for an additional 5 years after initial treatment.

The authors conclude: We thus propose that ER degradation is not a driver of full ER antagonism, but rather a downstream consequence of ER immobilization, occurring after a suppressive phenotype has been established at chromatin. We additionally argue that evaluating the transcriptional output of candidate ER therapeutics, both pre-clinically and clinically, will be critical for the identification of ER ligands with best-in-class potential.

The authors conclude that: A detailed understanding of the rates and routes of metastasis and their variability across the distinct molecular subtypes is essential for devising personalized approaches to breast cancer care. We describe a molecularly characterized breast cancer cohort with long-term clinical follow-up and a statistical modeling framework, enabling delineation of the dynamics of breast cancer recurrence at unprecedented resolution. These analyses reveal four late recurring ER+ subgroups and accompanying biomarkers that collectively define the quarter of ER+ cases at highest risk of recurrence. Our findings highlight opportunities for improved patient stratification and biomarker-driven clinical trials directed at the subset of breast cancer patients with persistent risk of recurrence.

The authors conclude that: This trial demonstrates the clinical utility of CTC count as an objective decision tool when considering 1st line therapy in ER+ HER2- MBC. In most patients, CTC count did confirm the a priori clinical choice; however, trial results show that in discrepant cases, CTC count may be trusted for either escalating (i.e. considering CT in patients if high CTC count) or de-escalating (i.e. considering HT in patients if low CTC count) 1st line therapy.

The authors conclude that: ALP+FUL showed consistent clinically meaningful treatment benefit for pts with ctDNA PIK3CA mutant status, and across pt subgroups, including pts with/without prior treatment for ABC and prior CDK4/6i use. OS data were not yet mature at the data cut-off, but OS appeared numerically longer for ALP+FUL vs PBO+FUL after 52% of events.] |
