New drug combo aims to stop breast Cancer's comeback

NCT ID NCT03285412

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a drug called ribociclib to standard hormone therapy can better prevent early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer from returning. It is for patients who have completed initial surgery and have a specific marker of very low-level cancer in their blood. The goal is to see if this combination treatment can clear this marker and improve long-term outcomes compared to hormone therapy alone.
