Camizestrant demonstrated highly statistically significant improvement in PFS in 1L advanced HR+ve breast cancer with an emergent ESR1 tumour mutation in SERENA-6 Ph 3 trial

Susan Galbraith, Executive Vice President, Oncology Haematology R&D, AstraZeneca, said: “These impressive results demonstrate the versatility of camizestrant in combination with all the widely approved CDK4/6 inhibitors to provide a well-tolerated new potential treatment option in the first-line setting for the one in three patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer whose tumours develop ESR1 mutations during treatment with an aromatase inhibitor in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. This critical read-out moves us one step closer to realising the potential of camizestrant to become a new standard-of-care as we look to shift the treatment paradigm and establish this new endocrine therapy backbone in HR-positive breast cancer.”
