Dose optimization of KAT6A inhibitor PA-07248144 will be presented today #ASCO25

Based on PK, tox, and activity (ORR 37%, cBR 56%, mPFS 10.7m), the 5 mg dose in combination with fulvestrant will move forward to RPh3 study in 2L HR+HER2- MBC @DFCI_BreastOnc

Dr Kaelin gave a very thought provoking talk.

He argues single agent therapies will never cure cancer due to resistance.

Our chance is cure will come with multiple non-cross resistant therapies, challenging current paradigms.

The selective estrogen-receptor degrader imlunestrant plus abemaciclib led to a median progression-free survival of 9.4 months among patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer (vs. 5.5 months with imlunestrant alone). Full EMBER-3 trial results: nej.md/4fZ74HX

BWEL intervention with diet and weight loss is able to improve:
✅metabolic biomarkers
✅insulin resistance
✅ stress biomarkers
BWEL study presented by Dr. Jennifer Ligibel. Looking forward to future data with improved breast cancer outcomes. @dfcibreastonc.bsky.social #SABCS24

Phase I clinical trials: it is important to get the dose as right as possible prior to phase III clinical trials. @fda.gov project OPTIMUS focus on totality of data for improved dose decision making:
- minimize toxicity
- enhance efficacy
- improve outcome for patients

Can we bring 2L PFS closer to 12 months post 1L CDK4/6i? More work needed to improve biomarkers for selection of optimal 2L therapeutic option. #ESMOASIA24

Single cell analysis of normal breast tissue-BRCA1/BRCA2 carriers contained a small percentage of cells with extreme aneuploidy, featuring loss of TP53, BRCA1/BRCA2 LOH and multiple breast cancer-associated CNAs, likely precursors to clonally expanded tumor genomes pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39567747/
Luminal breast epithelial cells of BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers and noncarriers harbor common breast cancer copy number alterations - PubMed
The prevalence and nature of somatic copy number alterations (CNAs) in breast epithelium and their role in tumor initiation and evolution remain poorly understood. Using single-cell DNA sequencing (49...

There is not enough evidence for poor performance of cdk4/6i (abema in MonarchE) in patients with BRCA pathogenic mutations. These patients still
deserve adj cdk4/6i if they meet criteria. Nadia Harbeck discussing this topic in Bogota 🇨🇴
