ABSTRACT

Overall, 2021 was marked by the confirmation of the major interest of cell cycle inhibitors for hormone receptor (HR) positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative advanced breast cancers with very high overall survival data exceeding five years for hormone-sensitive disease. Studies have also confirmed the efficacy and safety of this therapeutic class in the elderly population. New cell cycle inhibitors are under development (SHR6390). New combinations are also being evaluated, notably palbociclib with SAR439859 (a new selective estrogen receptor degrader: SERD). Targeting of the Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K) pathway by taselisib, in hormone-resistant disease with a Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-Bisphosphate 3-Kinase Catalytic Subunit Alpha (PIK3CA) mutation, modestly improves progression-free survival but with a non-negligible toxicity of the treatment.
