In this episode, Danielle Roman, PharmD, BCOP, and Jordan Hill, PharmD, BCOP, discuss optimal care for patients with HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer receiving newer oral targeted therapies. Their conversation addresses treatment selection across early-stage and metastatic disease, biomarker-informed decision-making, adverse event management, and practical strategies to help patients remain on therapy.

Key topics include:

  • Selecting and sequencing oral targeted therapies, including CDK4/6 inhibitors, PARP inhibitors, PI3K/AKT pathway inhibitors, and oral SERDs
  • Identifying patients with high-risk early breast cancer and applying evidence from trials such as monarchE, NATALEE, and OlympiA
  • Using biomarkers such as BRCA1/2, PIK3CA, AKT1, PTEN, and ESR1 to guide therapy in metastatic disease
  • Monitoring and managing treatment-related adverse events, including neutropenia, diarrhea, hepatotoxicity, QTc prolongation, hyperglycemia, rash, stomatitis, anemia, nausea, and fatigue
  • Using dose modification, supportive care, patient education, and proactive follow-up to improve adherence and persistence with oral therapy
  • Incorporating oncology pharmacists and the multidisciplinary care team into ongoing treatment monitoring and patient support
