One year ago, on a sunny afternoon before the last session of #SABCS23, I stood on this balcony chatting with patient and advocate Gwen Manchion, who was stolen by MBC in the interim. This is why we do what we do.

Anyone planning on #SABCS23 here next week?
Knowing there are many who left the formerly known as Tweet bird app and curious as to real-time conference sharing energy on this site.

Finally, and only approved a couple of weeks ago, is Capivasertib (Trucap), an AKT inhibitor, approved for those with mutations in the PIK3CA-AKT-MTOR pathway or loss of PTEN. PFS was better in those with these mutations, confirmed by blinded independent review. #SABCS23

Germline mutation status of BRCA1/2 as biomarker: Higher pCR rates observed in mutations carriers in all arms. Mutation carriers and non-carriers benefitted most from weekly nab-paclitaxel.

😞 to be leaving #sabcs22 in hopes of beating a major ❄️ storm at home. Seeing #advocate, oncologist, & researcher friends recharged me. This is the ⭐️ breast cancer conference & while the science is incredible, I really come for the people 💙💚💗 🏨 for #sabcs23 already booked!

Saw so many wonderful folks at #SABCS22 but 😢 I didn’t get to talk to @DrSGraff - we have to make a date for #SABCS23 if not sooner

SERDs are not without challenges, and newer oral agents have lots of side effucks. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:27 AM
You see it here, in bold red: we are not all the same!! Individualize therapy and engage in shared decision making!! #SABCS23

Elacestrant, recently approved oral SERD, in EMERALD trial showed positive PFS - most pronounced in those with ESR1 mutation who demonstrated endocrine sensitivity by having a longer PFS on a CDK4/6 inhibitor. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:18 AM
Combos with oral SERDs (and CERANs and the rest of the alphabet soup) are in the works. I’m excited about the possibility of these (super happy so far with my combo of investigational palazestrant (SERD and CERAN) with ribociclib) #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:18 AM
Excited for the start of #SABCS23, especially as friend and #advocate extraordinaire @JaniceTNBCmets is on the panel!!

Aaaannnnddd the livestream isn’t working (at least so far) so you may get old fashioned photos of slides 🙄#SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:10 AM
First up TDXd aka Enhertu, a ADC approved for both HER2+ and HER2low MBC. Pretty sure it was approved in HER2low population about a year ago due to results from DESTINY-breast02 trial. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:10 AM
What do we need to think about in the progression after CDK4/6i? How about how long someone responded to a CDK4/6i? What about genetic and genomic mutations? And most important: patient goals and preferences! #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:09 AM
And we shouldn’t forget about older drugs, like everolimus, where everolimus + fulvestrant was better than fulvestrant alone (again the whole monotherapy after progression on a combo issue). #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:09 AM
Some suggestions for our care teams, including that (gasp!) we have lives outside of cancer and simple things like scheduling visits/scans/etc should be done WITH us and not TO us. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:09 AM
Interstitial lung disease (pneumonias) and left heart dysfunction are the main, and most worrisome, side effects as these can ☠️ if unrecognized and untreated. Frequent chest CT scans in the first few mi the of therapy should be done to screen for ILD. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:01 AM
next upelacestrant, aka Orserdu, an oral SERD, for ER+, HER2- MBC with an ESR1 genomic mutation. Approval was based on EMERALD trial, where all patients had had prior endocrine therapy. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:01 AM
While there was a benefit in those without ESR1mutation, the benefit was much greater in those with the mutation, hence approval in only those with mutant ESR1. Another reason is that in those w/o ESR1 there was higher withdrawal of consent, raising concerns about data. #SABCS23

Nausea was a common side effect, which is not surprising considering it’s an oral drug. It can also increase cholesterol, so this needs to be monitored. #SABCS23
November 17, 2024 at 2:01 AM
Side effects are common with Capivasertib, significantly diarrhea and rash; there’s less impact on blood sugar than alpelisib. Still waiting on effective tx with minimal toxicities. Not holding my breath (although my current trial is good so far in terms of AEs!). #SABCS23
