Breast Cancer and African Ancestry

Palbociclib with endocrine therapy did not improve outcomes in HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer, but improved invasive DFS in lobular disease.

Paolo Tarantino, MD, and Matteo Lambertini, MD, PhD discuss findings related to CDK4/6 inhibitors and antibody drug conjugates presented at SABCS 2024.

At 5 years, 100% of patients with breast cancer who did not receive surgery had ipsilateral breast tumor relapse-free survival.

A study evaluating disparities in breast reconstructive surgery sought to assess the impact of culture, race, and ethnicity in minority groups.

Timely guideline-concordant care may mitigate racial and ethnic disparities in overall survival among patients with inflammatory breast cancer.

The safety profile of vepdegestrant in ER–positive/HER2– breast cancer was consistent with its observed profile in previous studies.
