Along with the Oncology Brothers, Paolo Tarantino, MD, discuss the phase 3 EMERALD study of elacestrant versus standard of care endocrine therapy for ER+, HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Their conversation focuses on the implications of recently published data demonstrating that elacestrant provides a PFS benefit across clinically meaningful subgroups of patients with ESR1m, ER+, HER2- MBC, including those with endocrine-sensitive disease.
