Oral poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor olaparib in patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations and advanced breast cancer

TL;DR: The results of this study provide positive proof of concept for PARP inhibition in BRCA-deficient breast cancers and shows a favourable therapeutic index for a novel targeted treatment strategy in patients with tumours that have genetic loss of function of BRCa1-associated orBRCA2-associated DNA repair.

TL;DR: 6-month trastuzumab treatment is shown to be non-inferior to 12-month treatment in patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer, with less cardiotoxicity and fewer severe adverse events, which support consideration of reduced duration trastzumab for women at similar risk of recurrence as to those included in the trial.

Ovarian ablation or suppression in premenopausal early breast cancer: results from the international adjuvant breast cancer ovarian ablation or suppression randomized trial

TL;DR: No added effect of ovarian ablation or suppression was seen on relapse-free survival or overall survival of premenopausal women who were treated for early-stage breast cancer, however, the role of Ovarian Ablation or Suppression in young (<40 years) women with ER-positive tumors, especially those not receiving chemotherapy, requires further study.
