In this on-demand Tweetorial video from BREAST CANCER CONNECT, Dr Paolo Tarantino presents a patient with ER+/HER2-  de novo metastatic breast cancer, exploring the entire diagnostic and treatment process.

Clinical Takeaways

 

  • Guidelines recommend performing molecular testing with ctDNA to tailor treatment strategies in cases of recurrence or progression on endocrine therapy
  • Elacestrant, as the first FDA-approved oral SERD (January 2023), offers a promising choice for select patients with ER+/HER2-  metastatic breast cancer harbouring an ESR1 mutation
  • Oral SERDs are being studied as a monotherapy and in combination with targeted therapies (i.e. CDK4/6, PI3K and AKT inhibitors), offering promising prospects for their integration into clinical practice

  • 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

Paolo Tarantino is a leading researcher in the field of breast cancer and drug development. He’s currently pursuing an advanced research fellowship at Dana Farber Cancer Institute and at Harvard Medical School (Boston, MA) and a PhD in clinical research at the University of Milan.
