Final OS analysis from #FALCON:

✅ No significant difference between fulvestrant (44.8 months) and anastrozole (42.7 months) in ET-naive HR+ #ABC

✅ 15% ⬇️ risk of death with fulvestrant in nonvisceral disease (65.2 vs. 47.8 months)

🆕 data from KATHERINE trial confirms T-DM1 improves OS & sustains IDFS in HER2+ early #BreastCancer with residual disease after neoadjuvant therapy.

7-year IDFS: 80.8% (T-DM1) 🆚 67.1% (trastuzumab)
7-year OS: 89.1% (T-DM1) 🆚 84.4% (trastuzumab)

✨C9741 trial 12-year FU insights in @JCO_ASCO:

Dose-dense chemo shows sustained benefit in N+ #BreastCancer
📈+23% DFS (HR 0.77)
📈+20% OS (HR 0.80)

🔬Low SET2,3 biomarker = biggest benefit in ER+

❌Tumor burden, molecular subtype, menopausal status ≠ predictive

🆕Insights from the EUROPA trial🌟in @TheLancet :
In women aged 70+ with low-risk, early #breastcancer, radiotherapy 🆚 endocrine therapy after BCS showed:
🎀Better HRQoL at 24 months (-3.4 vs -9.8, p=0.045)
🎀Fewer adverse events (67% vs 85%)

🆕
#HELEN006 trial:
weekly nab-paclitaxel with trastuzumab & pertuzumab showed a higher pCR (66.3%) 🆚 docetaxel + carboplatin (57.6%) in HER2-positive #eBC, with fewer severe side effects.
A potential new standard for neoadjuvant therapy❓
