Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses key takeaways from SABCS 2024 conference.

A panelist discusses how molecular testing results, including ESR1 mutations, PIK3CA alterations, and other genomic findings, directly inform treatment decisions and sequencing of therapies for patients with MBC.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses how circulating tumor DNA testing enables real-time monitoring of disease progression, detection of emerging mutations, and assessment of treatment response in patients with MBC.

A panelist discusses how molecular testing for patients with MBC who relapse during or shortly after adjuvant endocrine therapy is crucial for detecting ESR1 mutations and other resistance mechanisms that can inform subsequent treatment selection.

A panelist discusses how comprehensive molecular testing at MBC diagnosis, including genomic profiling and ESR1 mutation status, helps guide treatment decisions and identify potential therapeutic targets.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses the role of abemaciclib plus elacestrant for ER+/HER2– MBC from data presented at SABCS 2024.

A panelist discusses how the phase 2 ELECTRA trial studies elacestrant in combination with ribociclib as first-line therapy for ER+/HER2– advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, highlights key data from the ELEVATE study, presented at SABCS 2024.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses how the phase 3 ELEVATE study evaluates the combination of elacestrant with abemaciclib in patients with ER+/HER2– advanced or MBC who have progressed on prior endocrine therapy.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses how the combination of elacestrant and abemaciclib compares with other treatment options for patients with advanced breast cancer, whether estrogen receptor-positive or HER2-negative.

A panelist discusses how combining elacestrant with targeted therapies like CDK4/6 inhibitors or PI3K inhibitors could potentially enhance its efficacy and overcome resistance mechanisms in ER+/HER2– MBC treatment.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses how elacestrant, an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader, demonstrated superior progression-free survival compared with standard endocrine therapy in patients with ER+/HER2– metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who had previously received CDK4/6 inhibitors in the phase 3 EMERALD trial.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, discusses the ELEVATE trial of elacestrant combined with various targeted therapies for patients with endocrine receptor-positive/HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who have already received endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Following a comprehensive review of CAPItello-291, Rohit Gosain, MD, and Rahul Gosain, MD, provide closing thoughts on key takeaways.

Focusing on the safety profile, the Oncology Brothers and Hope Rugo, MD, review safety data from CAPItello-291 and discuss adverse event management practices for patients with breast cancer.

Hope Rugo, MD, reviews key data from CAPItello-291 on capivasertib in patients with HR+ breast cancer, highlighting progression-free survival and overall survival.

Medical oncologists provide insights on biomarker testing and the prevalence of AKT1, PIK3CA, and PTEN mutations in breast cancer.

Hope Rugo, MD, joins Rahul Gosain, MD, and Rohit Gosain, MD, to discuss the rationale and study design for CAPItello-291 in HR+ advanced breast cancer.

Following their review of clinical trial data presented at SABCS 2023, the Oncology Brothers offer their key takeaways on recent updates in HR+/HER2- breast cancer.

Medical oncologists discuss results from the TROPION-Breast01 study investigating Dato-DXd (datopotamab deurxtecan) in patients with previously treated inoperable or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer.

Hope Rugo, MD, and the Oncology Brothers review results from the INAVO120 trial studying inavolisib in combination with palbociclib and fulvestrant in PIK3CA-mutated HR+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

Experts on breast cancer review the final overall survival results from MONARCH 3 investigating abemaciclib plus a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor as first-line therapy for HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer.

Following SABCS 2023, Hope Rugo, MD, joins the Oncology Brothers, Rahul Gosain, MD, and Rohit Gosain, MD, to discuss the final invasive disease-free survival analysis from the NATALEE trial in HR+/HER2- early breast cancer.

Expert insights on improving outcomes in ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer patients with resistance mutations.

Dr. Hope Rugo discusses EMERALD subgroup analysis, safety, and efficacy in patients with coexisting resistance mutations.

Current treatment landscape in ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer and unmet needs in overcoming treatment resistance.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses background and key findings from the phase 3 CAPItello-291 trial in breast cancer.

Closing out her discussion on the treatment and management of HR+/HER2- mBC, Hope Rugo, MD, FASCO, highlights unmet needs and future directions in the field.

Dr Hope Rugo shares insight on how she approaches second-line and higher treatment selection in patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer who experience disease progression on first-line therapy.
