Background: Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors have revolutionized the treatment landscape of hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2 -) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Here, we present the real-world clinical outcomes and toxicity data of patients treated at a single cancer center.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with HR+/HER2- MBC treated with ribociclib plus endocrine therapy (ET).
Most of endometrial cancers are sporadic, with 5% or less being attributed to inherited pathogenic germline mutations and mostly related to the Lynch syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate patterns and frequencies of germline mutations in patients with endometrial cancer in an Arab region. Consecutive patients with endometrial cancer (n = 130), regardless of their age and family history, were enrolled.
