Active substance

Dalpiciclib (a CDK4/6 inhibitor) combined with trastuzumab, pertuzumab, pyrotinib, and endocrine therapy (letrozole, anastrozole, exemestane, or fulvestrant)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new first-line maintenance treatment option to delay cancer progression in people with HR+/HER2+ metastatic breast cancer.
