Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: Postmenopausal women (n = 340) with no prior systemic treatment for advanced disease were randomised 1:1 to palbociclib (125 mg/d orally; 3 weeks on, 1 week off) plus letrozole (2.5 mg/d orally; continuously) or placebo plus letrozole. The primary end-point was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end-points included tumour response and safety. RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS: Findings from PALOMA-4 support the efficacy and safety of first-line palbociclib plus letrozole in postmenopausal Asian women with ER+/HER2- ABC. No new safety concerns of palbociclib plus letrozole were identified. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials. gov, NCT02297438.
