Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, and Rebecca Alexandra Dent, MD, FASCO, on Breast Cancer Data Highlights: Sequencing of Endocrine Therapy
2025 ASCO Annual Meeting
Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, of City of Hope, and Rebecca Alexandra Dent, MD, FASCO, of National Cancer Centre Singapore, review the results of a biomarker analysis of the DESTINY-Breast06 trial, which evaluated trastuzumab deruxtecan after endocrine therapy in patients with metastatic breast cancer (Abstract 1013). They also discuss findings from the SERENA-6 and EMBER-3 trials, also presented at ASCO 2025, and what all this new data means for the sequencing of endocrine therapy in patients with breast cancer.

Nicholas C. Turner, MD, PhD, of the Royal Marsden Hospital, presents findings from the phase III, double-blind ctDNA-guided SERENA-6 trial, which evaluated the combination of camizestrant plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor to treat emergent ESR1 mutations during first-line endocrine therapy for patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (LBA4).
