Abstract:
Early-stage treatment of malignant tumors has a significant effect on improving the prognosis. In ASCO and ESMO 2024, several important advancements have been made in the field of systemic therapy for early-stage breast cancer, particularly in the diversification of treatment plans and the individualization of strategies for different molecular subtypes of breast cancer. The importance of adjuvant endocrine therapy (AET) has been highlighted on treating hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative early breast cancer.The adjuvant therapy with Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) has been proven successful in treating HR+/HER2- early breast cancer. Neoadjuvant immunotherapy targeting early triple positive breast cancer (TNBC) has shown unique advantages. The possibility of having down-grade chemotherapy safely in treating HR+/HER2+ stage breast cancer has been explored.
