Clinical Pearls:
- The PALOMA-3 trial is focusing on women who have progressed on their first-line hormonal therapy - There are a number of different options in this space, but fulvestrant is one of the strongest and has the best data when given under 500mg/dose
- There is no evidence of any drug interaction between palbociclib and fulvestrant
- Adding fulvestrant to palbociclib may improve the length of time that cancer can be controlled
