Medical experts come together to share their views in this on-demand webinar replay of an interactive online discussion:

 

New Oral Endocrine Therapy Options for Patients with Advanced or Metastatic ER+ Breast Cancer

 

  • The independent expert panel discussed oral SERDs efficacy and safety profiles in patients with ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer and their place in the treatment landscape

  • They also covered how to optimise treatment selection and sequencing in ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer and why, when and how to test for ESR1 mutation

  • The event concluded with speakers and participants engaging in a Q&A to address pressing questions

Clinical Takeaways

  • Elacestrant is the 1st oral SERD to be FDA approved (January 2023) for postmenopausal women or adult men with ER+/HER2-, ESR1-mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer

    • FDA approved Guardant360 CDx assay as a companion diagnostic device to identify patients with ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer for treatment with elacestrant

  • With the aim of redefining treatment landscapes for ER+/HER2- advanced and metastatic breast cancer, several oral SERDs are in clinical development both as monotherapy and in combination therapy with other targeted therapies, including CDK4/6i 

  • ESR1, PI3K, CDK4/6, BRCA, and AKT pathways alterations can be used as targets to guide treatment selection and sequencing decisions in ER+/HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer

  • ESR1 mutational status can be determined without repeated tissue biopsy of a metastatic site; instead, it can be done reliably by liquid biopsy at recurrence or progression on ET

  • Recognise the efficacy and safety profiles of SERDs for patients with advanced or metastatic BC, and understand their place in the treatment landscape for patients with BC
  • Implement optimization of treatment selection, and make the appropriate sequencing decisions
  • Be able to identify and manage adverse events

Sara Tolaney, MD, MPH is the Chief of the Division of Breast Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and is internationally recognized for her research and education leadership in breast cancer. She also serves as Associate Director of the Susan F. Smith Center for Women’s Cancers and is a Senior Physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School.

Dr Tolaney received her undergraduate degree from Princeton University and her medical degree from UC San Francisco. She subsequently completed her residency in Internal Medicine at Johns Hopkins University, and fellowships in hematology and medical oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. She obtained her Masters in Public Health from Harvard School of Public Health.

Her research focuses on the development of novel therapies in the treatment of breast cancer and developing more effective and less toxic treatment approaches. Her work has demonstrated that a relatively low risk regimen is beneficial in women with early stage node-negative HER2-positive cancers, and this works has been incorporated into national and international guidelines. She has developed several follow-up studies looking at novel approaches to early stage HER2-positive disease and has also played a significant role in development of cdk 4/6 inhibitors, antibody drug conjugates, and immunotherapy in breast cancer. She currently chairs several registration studies in these areas and also leads many investigator-initiated trials. She is the author of over 150 peer-reviewed publications with manuscripts included in many prestigious journals such as the New England Journal, Lancet Oncology, Journal of Clinical Oncology, and JAMA Oncology.
