TL;DR: Everolimus combined with an aromatase inhibitor improved progression-free survival in patients with hormone-receptor-positive advanced breast cancer previously treated with nonsteroidal aromat enzyme inhibitors.

TL;DR: Among patients with previously untreated ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer, palbociclib combined with letrozole resulted in significantly longer progression-free survival than that with let rozole alone, although the rates of myelotoxic effects were higher with palbokiclib-letrozoles.

TL;DR: Blockade of pathways mediating macrophage recruitment, in combination with chemotherapy, significantly decreases primary tumor progression, reduces metastasis, and improves survival by CD8+ T-cell-dependent mechanisms, thus indicating that the immune microenvironment of tumors can be reprogrammed to instead foster antitumor immunity and improve response to cytotoxic therapy.

TL;DR: This ESO-ESMO ABC 5 Clinical Practice Guideline provides key recommendations for managing advanced breast cancer patients, and provides updates on managing patients with all breast cancer subtypes, LABC, follow-up, palliative and supportive care.

TL;DR: Treatment with alpelisib–fulvestrant prolonged progression‐free survival among patients with PIK3CA‐mutated, HR‐positive, HER2‐negative advanced breast cancer who had received endocrine therapy previously.
