Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) have revolutionized the treatment of hormone-receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer, and are now also established agents in the treatment of high-risk and intermediate-risk HR+ early breast cancer. Several strategies regarding CDK4/6i combinations or continuation beyond progression have been successfully evaluated in the metastatic setting, and are considered a standard of care. Mechanism of action of and resistance mechanisms against CDK4/6i in addition to endocrine resistance represent an important research topic, important for the treatment of HR+ breast cancer.

The efficacy of cancer immunotherapy relies on a sufficient amount of functional immune cells. Triple-negative breast cancer lacks enough immune cell infiltration, and adjuvant therapy is necessary to prime anti-tumor immunity. However, the improvement in efficacy is unsatisfactory with concern about inducing systemic immunotoxicity.

The standard adjuvant treatment of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative early breast cancer (EBC) is endocrine therapy (ET). Despite this treatment, 20% of patients will have their disease recur. Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors with ET have shown overall survival (OS) benefit in ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer in the metastatic setting.

Introduction: Adjuvant abemaciclib was recently approved in high-risk early breast cancer, leading to an increase in oncology resource utilisation. We thus developed a regional, remote monitoring clinical service. The set-up, delivery processes and outcomes from the first 6 months' consecutive patients are presented.

Purpose: Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) combined with endocrine therapy (ET) are the standard first-line treatment for hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC); however, disease progression occurs in almost all patients and additional treatment options are needed. Herein, we report outcomes of the postMONARCH trial investigating a switch in ET with/without CDK4/6 inhibition with abemaciclib after disease progression on CDK4/6i.
Methods: This double-blind, randomized phase III study enrolled patients with disease progression on previous CDK4/6i plus aromatase inhibitor as initial therapy for advanced disease or recurrence on/after adjuvant CDK4/6i + ET.
