  • Overview

    The management of HR+/HER2- early breast cancer (EBC) has traditionally presented clinical challenges due to the prolonged risk of recurrence that can persist for decades. Up to 50% of recurrences occur beyond the first 5 years after initial diagnosis. However, the inclusion of CDK4/6 inhibitors revolutionized the treatment paradigm of HR+/HER2- EBC, and combining these agents with endocrine therapy has yielded significant benefits in terms of progression-free survival, objective response rate, and overall survival in patients with breast cancer. In this educational series, expert faculty evaluate best practices and the supporting clinical data for the use of CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy in HR+/HER2- EBC.

  • Learning Objectives

    After participating in this educational activity, participants should be better able to:

    • Evaluate evidence from practice-changing phase 3 trials in HR+/HER2- early breast cancer (EBC) and their implications for clinical practice
    • Develop evidence- and guideline-driven treatment strategies for high-risk patients with HR+/HER2- EBC
    • Implement collaborative, multidisciplinary strategies to promote adherence/persistence while mitigating CDK4/6 inhibitor-related adverse events
    • Differentiate therapeutic options for patients with HR+/HER2- EBC based on tumor characteristics, efficacy, and patient preferences
  • Target Audience

    This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists and pathologists as well as all other physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, and healthcare providers involved in managing patients with breast cancer.
