Im SA, et al. - Through another phase 3 trial on 672 patients in premenopausal or perimenopausal stage with advanced hormone-receptor–positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–negative breast cancer, the contributors targetted to understand the benefits of addition of a cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor to endocrine therapy for progression-free survival than endocrine therapy alone.

No toxic effects with longer follow-up have emerged.
