Does CDK4/6i really work in ER-low disease?
I had also really wanted to study the efficacy of CDK4/6 inhibitors in ER-low tumors, but I could not collect enough data. This study addresses exactly this important question. First of all, congratulations to the investigators.
In ER-low HR+/HER2− MBC, CDK4/6i + ET does not seem to deliver the expected HR+ benefit: PFS was 2.9 months. In ER-high patients, PFS was 23.3 months.
Despite the small sample size and the inherent limitations of a retrospective study, the observed behavior is consistent with what we would expect from ER-low tumors. ER-low disease should not simply be placed into the classic HR+ category with automatic CDK4/6i + ET. This subtype behaves closer to TNBC.

The approval of T-DXd for the (neo)adjuvant treatment of HER2+ breast cancer will add an invaluable tool to our arsenal. Yet, in this era of right-sizing, not all patients require T-DXd treatment to be cured. Some thoughts in my recent JCO editorial. https://t.co/tKCgzzbdiq

🚨 FDA’s take on SERENA-6 is basically this:
“Nice data… but are we helping patients?”
Let’s break it down 👇
🧠 Problem 1: Wrong question
Trial asks:
👉 Switch early vs don’t switch
But real-world question is:
👉 Switch early vs switch later
FDA:
❌ “You didn’t answer the real question.”
⏱️ Problem 2: The PFS illusion
PFS looks great (16 vs 9.2 months)
But… it starts from:
👉 ESR1 mutation detection (not progression)
FDA:
❓ “What does this PFS even mean clinically?”
🧬 Problem 3: Biology mismatch
We assume: ESR1 mutation = resistance
FDA says:
👉 Not so fast
Patients may still benefit from AI + CDK4/6i
even AFTER mutation appears
👉 Early switch = stopping a working drug
🔁 Problem 4: No second chance
Control arm never got camizestrant later ❌
So we don’t know:
👉 Early vs delayed use
FDA:
❌ “This comparison is incomplete”
📉 Problem 5: Where is survival benefit?
OS = immature
Final data → years away
FDA:
👉 “Without OS, paradigm shift is risky”
⚠️ Problem 6: Not risk-free
QT prolongation
Bradycardia
Rare TdP
👉 Not a harmless switch
🎯 FDA’s real message:
“Just because we can act early…
doesn’t mean we should.”

TACO Trial
Tri-weekly cisplatin (75 mg/m² q3w) vs weekly cisplatin (40 mg/m²) with concurrent RT in LACC.
Results:
• No difference in RFS or OS
• Similar recurrence patterns
• Lower hematologic toxicity with tri-weekly dosing
Clinical takeaway:
Tri-weekly cisplatin is a valid alternative regimen.

Obesity and Cancer:
Obesity can reshape inflammation, hormones, immunity, and metabolism in ways that help tumors grow. Preventing obesity is also part of cancer prevention.

Taxanes, EGFR inhibitors and multikinase inhibitors are the main drivers of nail toxicities in oncology. Early nail care, cryotherapy during taxanes, and prompt treatment of paronychia (topical steroids/antibiotics) can prevent infections and avoid unnecessary treatment interruptions
