Fantastic data by @drsarahsam in #BRIDGET showing the activity of #tucatinib in pts with 🧠 mets....used in combo w/ standard therapies..building upon what we saw in HER2CLIMB. ⬆️ unmet need! #ESMO26 #ESMOAmbassadors @OncoAlert
#ESMO26: Practice-changing improvement in intracranial progression-free survival seen with the addition of tucatinib to standard therapy in HER2-positive metastatic #BreastCancer (#MBC) in the BRIDGET #ClinicalTrial. Read more ow.ly/Gc4550ZZO6K #InsightsbyESMO

My #esmo26 breast summary: atirmo great data await phase 3; datodxd active in cns; pembro active in pdl1 >10 er+; Chinese “me too” need h2h; same payload no benefit; add tucatinib to delay cns progression; adj cdk os benefit (attn to stats) but giredestrant better tolerability.

@RebeccaDSing presents efficacy of Dato-Dxd in patients with TNBC on TB02. In the small subset with BMs Dato DXd improved CNS response and PFS! Nice data immediately applicable to clinical practice. @myesmo #ESMO2026 @OncoAlert

Important to follow the data and not the pictures and our bias.
This is an important article. A US-based, randomized study shows no benefit to focal ablation of asymptomatic metastatic disease in advanced breast cancer. Such approaches should not be considered standard of care.

Can we spare CDK4/6i in ER+ early breast cancer and escalate only when needed? #AFT70 NAVIGATE: giredestrant + serial MRD monitoring, with CDK4/6i added only if MRD turns +ve. 2,000+ pts, ~200 sites. Risk-adapted, not one-size-fits-all. @guptalabunc @MSKCancerCenter @OncoAlert
Alliance Foundation Trials and Natera have launched AFT-70 NAVIGATE, a global Phase III trial in ER+/HER2- early-stage breast cancer, evaluating giredestrant, Genentech’s investigational oral SERD, with Signatera™ MRD-guided CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy: bit.ly/4rKzlbQ
