Summary

This study is for women with an early, hormone-sensitive type of breast cancer that has a higher chance of coming back. It tests whether a blood test (ctDNA) can identify who can safely skip chemotherapy and instead take a targeted pill (dalpiciclib) plus hormone therapy. About 393 women will be randomly assigned to either standard chemo or the experimental pill-based approach. The goal is to see if the pill works as well as chemo with fewer side effects.
