Key clinical point: Elacestrant significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared with standard-of-care (SOC) endocrine monotherapy in previously treated patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2−) metastatic breast cancer (BC) with a manageable safety.

Major finding: Elacestrant vs. SOC prolonged PFS in the overall cohort (hazard ratio [HR] 0.70; P = .002) and in patients with estrogen receptor 1 mutation (HR 0.55; P = .0005). Grade 3/4 adverse events occurred in 27.0% vs. 20.5% of patients receiving elacestrant vs. SOC therapy, respectively.

Study details: Findings are from the phase 3 EMERALD study including 477 patients with ER+/HER2− metastatic BC who progressed after the first- or second-line treatment with endocrine therapy + cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor and ≤1 rounds of chemotherapy treatment and were randomly assigned to receive elacestrant or SOC endocrine monotherapy.

Disclosures: This study was sponsored by Radius Health, Inc. The authors declared owning stock options or patents, receiving research funding, travel, accommodation expenses, or honoraria from, or serving as consultants, advisors, and in speakers’ bureaus for several sources, including Radius Health.
