Clinical Takeaways

  • Elacestrant improves PFS vs SOC in patients with ESR1m, irrespective of PIK3CAm or HER2-low status

  • Hyperglycemia is a target side effect of the PIK3CA inhibitors and needs to be monitored closely

  • T-DXd can be considered for patients with HER2-low mBC after ≥1 line of ChT

  • 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
