Palbociclib (Ibransa®): new possibilities of hormone therapy for luminal her2-negative metastatic breast cancer

Abstract

Hormonal therapy is the main treatment for estrogen receptor positive (ER+) HER 2-negative metastatic breast cancer. Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) are regulators of cell transition from G1 phase to S phase of the cell cycle. The activity of CDK4/6 is increased in the cells of the ER+ breast cancer. CDK4/6 are key targets of signal pathways from the estrogen receptors. Palbociclib is a first-in-class oral inhibitor of CDK4/6. The article presents results of two large randomized phase III trials PALOMA-2 and PALOMA-3, including patients with ER+ HER 2-negative advanced breast cancer. Palbociclib in combination with letrozole significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared with letrozole alone as first-line treatment of advanced breast cancer. Adding palbociclib to fulvestrant results in longer PFS than fulvestrant alone in women with advanced breast cancer as second-line treatment.
