Castalin can boost the effectiveness of CHK1 inhibitors, a class of drugs currently in phase 1 clinical trials. When tested in cellular models of triple-negative breast cancer, one of the most aggressive forms of the disease, Castalin was shown to enhance the action of these inhibitors.

Explore the detailed findings of a recent study that highlights the impact of treatment interruptions on survival rates in triple-negative breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy.

Unfolding the Potentials of Anti-TROP2 ADC Therapy in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Evolving therapeutic paradigms for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are in focus, as esteemed experts highlight the use of novel anti-TROP2 antibody drug conjugates in an enlightening multidisciplinary tumor board.

There were significant state variations in racial and ethnic disparities in TNBC incidence in this cohort study, with Black women in Delaware, Missouri, Louisiana, and Mississippi having the highest rates among all states and racial and ethnic populations. More research is needed to identify factors contributing to the significant geographic variations in racial and ethnic disparities in TNBC incidence in order to develop effective preventive measures, and social determinants of health contribute to the geographic disparities in TNBC risk, according to the findings.

“For patients with T1cN1-2 or T2-4N0 (stage II or III), early-stage TNBC, the Panel recommends use of pembrolizumab (200 mg once every 3 weeks or 400 mg once every 6 weeks) in combination with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab after surgery.”

Joyce A. O’Shaughnessy, MD provides updates on several key presentations from SABCS, touching on SERD therapy, ribociclib combinations, the datopotamab deruxtecan antibody-drug conjugate targeting overexpression of the calcium signal transducer TROP2, trastuzumab deruxtecan, and more. The MONALEESA phase 3 trial is looking at letrozole + ribociclib vs letrozole + placebo in postmenopausal women with ER+ HER2- advanced breast cancer. The trial arm outperformed the control arm with a median OS of 63.9 months vs 51.4 months respectively at a median follow up of just over 6.5 years. That median OS is the longest reported for any phase 3 trial in advanced breast cancer.
