Abstract:
The theme of the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting is "The art and science of cancer care: from comfort to cure." Extensive research was presented on the hormonal receptor (HR)-positive/ human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative subtype of metastatic breast cancer. Three late-breaking abstracts (LBA) reported the latest findings of the post MONARCH (LBA1001), Young-PEARL (LBA1002), and SACI-IO HR+ (LBA1004) studies , generating significant interest. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of the progress on HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer treatment research as reported at this annual meeting.
