Giredestrant-Everolimus Improves PFS in Pretreated Breast Cancer
This phase 3 trial compared giredestrant plus everolimus against standard endocrine therapy plus everolimus in ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer patients previously treated with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. The trial reported median progression-free survival of 10.0 versus 5.5 months in patients with mutated tumors, and 8.8 versus 5.5 months in the overall population, both favoring giredestrant-everolimus. Adverse event rates, including stomatitis, diarrhea, and anemia, were reported as similar between the two groups.
Most relevant for: Patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose disease progressed after a CDK4/6 inhibitor plus endocrine therapy.
