Abemaciclib Dose Escalation in Early High-Risk Breast Cancer Adjuvant Therapy

Официальное название

Study on the Safety and Efficacy of Abemaciclib Dose Escalation Strategy in Adjuvant Therapy for Early High-Risk Breast Cancer

Обзор

Abemaciclib combined with endocrine therapy has become one of the important adjuvant treatment regimens for patients with HR+/HER2- high-risk early breast cancer. However, adverse events such as diarrhea, fatigue, neutropenia and elevated liver enzymes are concentrated in the early stage of adjuvant therapy, which often lead to dose reduction, temporary drug interruption or even permanent discontinuation. This further affects treatment adherence, relative dose intensity (RDI) and treatment completion rate. Findings from the TRADE study suggest that a step-up dosing strategy, initiating at a lower dose followed by gradual titration to the standard dose, combined with standardized patient education and symptomatic management, may improve early treatment tolerance, reduce the burden of partial toxicities, and increase the likelihood of patients achieving and maintaining abemaciclib 150 mg twice daily. Based on the above evidence and clinical experience, step-up dosing has been adopted by some clinicians for real-world clinical practice. Nevertheless, existing evidence is mainly derived from non-Chinese populations. There is still a lack of systematic real-world data on step-up dosing among Chinese breast cancer patients under routine outpatient management, including the early toxicity profile, dose escalation achievement rate at each stage, dose adjustment pathways (prolonged escalation, treatment pause or dose de-escalation), RDI distribution, correlation with quality of life, and baseline factors affecting treatment tolerance and dose target attainment. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a real-world study focused on Chinese patients to fill the gap in local clinical evidence, and provide a basis for clinical pathway formulation, patient education, and subsequent multicenter validation studies.
