Response to Abemaciclib After 10 Lines of Therapy Including Palbociclib in Metastatic Breast Cancer: A Case Report With Literature Review

Abstract: Metastatic breast cancer (BC) is considered incurable, and it is generally treated with sequential single-agent therapies to control it with palliative intent. Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) are used in the frontline setting of hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative BC, and guidelines discourage the use of a second-line CDK4/6i after failure of first-line use of this class of drugs due to lack of data supporting this practice. We report a case of a postmenopausal woman with HR-positive… Show more

“…It is an anti-cancerous agent that is reported to dually inhibit cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK 4 and CDK 6). Abemaciclib is an FDA-approved drug used for the treatment of HR-positive and HER-negative metastatic breast cancer in combination with Fulvestrant [41]. Further, the drug has been used in various other trials including for the treatment of melanoma, lymphoma and solid tumors [42,43].…”

“…Another case series published by Mariotti V. et al demonstrated a response with abemaciclib in some patients after progression on palbociclib with a median PFS of 7.0 months (range 1.8-12.1) [32]. Some other case reports and single-center experiences also suggest the clinical efficacy of abemaciclib in this setting [33][34][35].…”
