Summary: | According with the present-day ideas, sequential lines of hormone therapy including those in patients with visceral metastases and multiple lesions form the basis of the treatment of HER2-negative metastatic hormone-dependent breast cancer. These measures make it possible to exercise the long-term control of the disease and maintain a good quality of life. In recent years, the clinical practice comprises the next-generation drugs that potentiate the effect of hormone therapy. These include cyclindependent kinases 4/6 inhibitors. Palbociclib (Ibransa, Pfizer) is the first representative of this class approved in Russia for the treatment of disseminated hormone-dependent breast cancer. The PALOMA-2 study demonstrated the high efficacy of the palbociclib combined with letrozole as a first-line hormone therapy. In the palbociclib and letrozole combination arm, the median time to progression was 27,6 months compared to 14,5 months in the letrozole monotherapy arm (p <0,001). The presented clinical case demonstrates the possibility of long-term successful control of the disease using palbociclib combined with letrozole hormone therapy. |
