Abstract PS10-16: Real-world efficacy of ribociclib + aromatase inhibitor/fulvestrant, or endocrine monotherapy, or chemotherapy as first-line treatment in women with HR-positive, HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer: Third interim analysis from the RIBANNA study
Abstract Background: In MONALEESA-3 and MONALEESA-7 trials, ribociclib (RIB, a selective CDK4/6 inhibitor) in combination with endocrine therapy (aromatase inhibitor [AI] or fulvestrant [FUL]) demonstrated a significant prolongation of overall survival among patients with breast cancer (BC), regardless of menopausal status and treatment-line. In the premenopausal or perimenopausal women, RIB + AI/FUL should be combined with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist. The real-world evidence for the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of RIB + AI/FUL in the routine clinical practice is needed to support the use of this combination. Methods: RIBANNA is a prospective, non-intervention…

Phase II study of fulvestrant 250mg/month in patients with recurrent or metastatic endometrial cancer: A study of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynäkologische Onkologie
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the activity and toxicity of fulvestrant, a pure estrogen receptor antagonist in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer, expressing estrogen and/or progesterone receptors (ER/PR). Methods Eligible patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer not amenable to curative surgery and/or radiotherapy were treated with fulvestrant at a dose of 250mg by IM injection every 4weeks for at least 12weeks. Therapy was continued until disease progression, death, intolerable side effects or end of study. Response was assessed in patients with at least one target lesion according to WHO-criteria. Results Thirty-five patients w…
Neo-/adjuvant phase III trial to compare intense dose-dense (idd) treatment with EnPC to tailored dose-dense (dt) therapy with dtEC-dtD for patients with high-risk early breast cancer: Results on pathological complete response (pCR) for patients treated within the neoadjuvant setting.
568Background: GAIN-2 compares the effectiveness and safety of a predefined idd regimen (EnPC) vs. a dd regimen with modification of single doses depending on individual hematological and non-hemat...
Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes and Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy With or Without Carboplatin in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2–Positive and Triple-Negative Primary Breast Cancers
Purpose Modulation of immunologic interactions in cancer tissue is a promising therapeutic strategy. To investigate the immunogenicity of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) –positive and triple-negative (TN) breast cancers (BCs), we evaluated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and immunologically relevant genes in the neoadjuvant GeparSixto trial. Patients and Methods GeparSixto investigated the effect of adding carboplatin (Cb) to an anthracycline-plus-taxane combination (PM) on pathologic complete response (pCR). A total of 580 tumors were evaluated before random assignment for stromal TILs and lymphocyte-predominant BC (LPBC). mRNA expression of immune-activating (CXCL9, …
