Breast Cancer | Unmet Need | HR-Positive/HER2-Negative | US/EU | 2021

Despite considerable progress in the treatment of HR-positive/HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer, the disease remains incurable. The approval and availability of the CDK4/6 inhibitors (Pfizer’s Ibrance, Novartis’s Kisqali and Piqray, and Eli Lilly’s Verzenio / Verzenios) have greatly expanded the treatment options for patients. A pressing need remains for later-line therapies following the development of hormone resistance. Key emerging agents under evaluation in this setting include: Immunomedics’ Trodelvy (sacituzumab govitecan); AstraZeneca’s capivasertib; Radius Health / Menarini’s elacestrant; Polyphor’s balixafortide; Odonate Therapeutics’ tesetaxel; and Athenex’s Oraxol. As competition intensifies in the metastatic HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer market, novel therapies will help to address the remaining unmet needs in this patient population.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • What are the most important factors that drive medical oncologists’ prescribing decisions for HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer?
  • How do key current therapies, such as Pfizer’s Ibrance and Novartis’s Piqray, perform on key clinical attributes for this patient population?
  • What are the prevailing areas of unmet need and hidden opportunities in this patient population?
  • When considering new treatment options for metastatic HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, what trade-offs are acceptable to surveyed medical oncologists between key clinical attributes and price per cycle?
