To mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we are pleased to share an animated video on treating metastatic breast cancer from Prof. Francois-Clement Bidard.
Explore how to optimise treatment selection and make appropriate sequencing decisions for patients with ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer, as Prof. Bidard explains:
- Why we should determine molecular characteristics for each patient
- When to perform ESR1 mutation testing
- Current treatment guidelines for ER+ metastatic breast cancer
Watch the video and download the accompanying slides below.
Marking Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Clinical Takeaways
-
To optimise treatment selection, molecular characterization should be conducted for each patient
-
ESR1 mutation testing should preferably be performed using a liquid biopsy platform when recurrence or progression occurs during endocrine therapy
-
Elacestrant was the 1st oral SERD to be FDA approved (January 2023), with optimal efficacy and manageable safety for patients with ESR1 mutated ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer
-
Oral SERDs are being studied as a monotherapy and in combination with targeted therapies, offering promising prospects for their integration into clinical practice
