In the second article of a 2-part series, Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, leads a conversation on the results of the EMERLAD study that showed elacestrant’s longer survival outcomes against standard of care endocrine therapy for patients with HR+, HER2- metastatic breast cancer.

Gabriel Hortabagyi, MD, provides an update on data from the phase 3 NATALEE trial of ribociclib and endocrine therapy in patients with early breast cancer.

Neoadjuvant nivolumab and non–anthracycline containing chemotherapy produced promising pathologic complete response rates regardless of whether nivolumab was administered before or during treatment with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with stage I to IIB triple-negative breast cancer.

Findings from the ADAPTcycle trial suggest that endocrine therapy plus ovarian suppression can generate high response rates in patients with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer, regardless of age.

Neoadjuvant pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab compared with placebo plus chemotherapy continued to show a clinically meaningful improvement in event-free survival in patients with high-risk, early-stage triple-negative breast cancer.

The addition of atezolizumab to neoadjuvant trastuzumab plus pertuzumab (HP) and chemotherapy led to a numerical, but not statistically significant, increase in pathologic complete response vs HP/chemotherapy alone in patients with HER2-positive operable breast cancer.

Preliminary study results examining the bispecific antibody, CDK4/6 inhibitor, and hormone therapy combination in patients with advanced breast cancer were presented at SABCS.
