43. ASCO 2023 - Early Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer

Hormone receptor-positive breast cancer again takes centre stage at the ASCO 23 (American Society of Clinical Oncology) Annual Meeting and has reinvented itself over the last two decades. Improvements are occurring in the adjuvant and neoadjuvant setting for both estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) positive and the human epidermal growth factor receptor space (HER2). In this episode, Michael and Josh take a closer look at MonarchE (Abemaciclib), NATALEE (Ribociclib), PHERgain (dose de-escalation) and Penelope-B (ctDNA).

As the arsenal for treating breast cancer grows, a crowded space means ongoing challenges with sequencing and choice of therapy.

Stay tuned for daily ASCO updates from the OFTIM team, Michael and Josh.
