Ribociclib plus Fulvestrant Improves Survival in Advanced Breast Cancer

In patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer, adding ribociclib to fulvestrant improved the overall survival (OS) by 28% compared to fulvestrant alone, as reported by Slamon et al. (2019) in The New England Journal of Medicine.

ASCO 2019 Breast Cancer: The ASCO19 breast cancer track summarised

Breast cancer: a front-runner when it comes to the development of novel therapeutic strategies. With the advent of newer targeted- and immunotherapies, oncologists have an increment of options to offer their patients. The American Society of Clinical Oncology’s (ASCO) 2019 Breast Cancer track offered an extensive look at the latest advancements and updates from on-going trials covering the various subtypes of breast cancer.

Ribociclib FDA label updated to include pre- and perimenopausal women

On July 18, 2018, the US FDA expanded the ribociclib (Kysqali©, Novartis)  approval. Ribociclib plus an aromatase inhibitor as initial endocrine-based therapy is no longer limited to postmenopausal HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients alone and now includes pre- and perimenopausal women. Furthermore, the FDA has added the combination ribociclib plus fulvestrant as initial endocrine-based therapy for postmenopausal women with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

Luminal Breast Cancer: can CDK4/6 Inhibition by Palbociclib Improve on Chemotherapy?

Can chemotherapy be avoided in women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer? This is a prominent question in the treatment of breast cancer around the globe.

ESMO16 Breast Cancer: Palbociclib, Ribociclib and Abemaciclib Data

Cyclin-dependent Kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors have shown clinical activity in patients with endocrine-resistant metastatic breast cancer. During the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Annual Meeting 2016, significant updates on studies with CDK4/6 inhibitors ribociclib, palbociclib and abemaciclib were presented.

Palbociclib (Ibrance®): First in Class CDK4/6 Inhibitor

At the American Association for Cancer Research, 2014 annual meeting (AACR) Richard Finn presented the results of the PALOMA-1 study with Ibrance® (palbociclib), an oral inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6). Based on the results of this Phase 2 study, palbociclib was recently approved by the United States Drug and Food Administration (U.S. FDA). What is the current level of evidence on palbociclib in approved indications?
