Targeting Cell Cycle Progression in HER2+ Breast Cancer: An Emerging Treatment Opportunity - PubMed

Targeting Cell Cycle Progression in HER2+ Breast Cancer: An Emerging Treatment Opportunity - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35742993/

The development of HER2-targeted therapies has dramatically improved patient survival and patient management and increased the quality of life in the HER2+ breast cancer patient population. Due to the activation...


Conclusion: Currently, several clinical trials are examining the synergistic effects of CDK 4/6 inhibitors with optimized HER2-directed therapies for the (ER /-) HER2 population in the metastatic setting. In this review, we aim to interrogate the burden of HER2 disease in light of recent treatment progress in the field and examine the...
