Article Synopsis
  • CDK4/6 inhibitors combined with endocrine therapy improve outcomes for patients with hormone-receptor positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer, but evidence comparing first-line and second-line use is limited.
  • The phase 3 SONIA trial involved 1,050 patients and showed no significant overall benefit for using CDK4/6 inhibitors first-line compared to second-line (31.0 vs. 26.8 months median progression-free survival).
  • Although first-line treatment led to longer duration of CDK4/6 therapy and more severe side effects, the quality of life was similar for both treatment timing, questioning the necessity for first-line CDK4/6 inhibitor usage in all cases.
