Combination cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors and endocrine therapy versus endocrine monotherapy for hormonal receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors plus endocrine therapy (ET) in hormonal receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC).

Methods

We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, ClinicalTrials.gov., ASCO, ESMO and AACR databases from inception to October 10, 2019 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared CDK 4/6 inhibitors plus ET to single-agent ET with no treatment-line restriction. The main outcomes analyzed were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate (CBR), and adverse events (AEs).

Results

Of 938 identified studies, 9 RCTs with 5043 women were eligi
