Real-world effectiveness comparison of first-line palbociclib, ribociclib or abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy in advanced HR-positive/HER2-negative BC patients: results from the multicenter PALMARES-2 study - PubMed

Real-world effectiveness comparison of first-line palbociclib, ribociclib or abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy in advanced HR-positive/HER2-negative BC patients: results from the multicenter PALMARES-2 study - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40204155/

Palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib have different real-world effectiveness in HR-positive/HER2-negative aBC patients. Our findings can support clinicians in choosing the most appropriate CDK4/6i in specific clinical contexts.

This multicenter real-world study compared CDK4/6 inhibitors in HR+/HER2– advanced breast cancer, showing abemaciclib and ribociclib improved progression-free survival versus palbociclib, with differential benefits across patient subgroups.
