Mashup Score: 412023 Year in review: Early breast cancer - 2 month(s) ago
The results of several studies aiming to tailor early breast cancer treatment to individual risk were released in 2023. Axillary lymph node dissections and radiotherapy may be safely omitted in carefully selected patients. Sustained benefit from adjuvant CDK4/6 inhibitors was observed in high-risk hormone receptor-positive disease and the addition of immunotherapy to neoadjuvant chemotherapy improved pathological response. Continued benefit from perioperative pembrolizumab was reported in patients with triple negative breast cancer, while atezolizumab did not improve the risk of recurrence either pre- or postoperatively.

Mashup Score: 29Efficacy of antiandrogens in androgen receptor-positive triple-negative metastatic breast cancer: Real-life data - 4 month(s) ago
Antiandrogens (AA) have been tested in clinical trials in androgen receptor (AR) + triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). We aim to assess the clinical benefit rate (CBR) of AA in real life.The primary end-point was CBR at 6 months. Twenty-four patients were assessable and received: abiraterone acetate (62 %), enzalutamide (8 %) and bicalutamide (30 %). CBR at 6 months was 29 % (7/24) with 2 CR, 3 PR and 2 SD. Four patients had a clinical benefit >12 months. Real-life efficacy of AA use in metastatic AR + TNBC are in line with data from published trials.

Mashup Score: 6Regularly scheduled physical examinations and the detection of breast cancer recurrences - 7 month(s) ago
Follow-up care of early breast cancer (EBC) patients usually includes routinely scheduled physical examinations. While ASCO guidelines recommend a physical exam every three to six months for the first three years, little evidence supports this schedule. We evaluated recurrence detection of patients transferred into a single centre survivorship program that follows ASCO recommendations.
