zanidatamab binds two HER2 domains at once (the trastuzumab and pertuzumab sites) and does not lean on chemo cytotoxicity. T-DXd is the other pole: an ADC payload pushing the first-line standard up, at the cost of interstitial lung disease.
MRD (NSABP-B-59) is the molecular ruler for whether to add or subtract after surgery.

Mirrors of Medicine@mirrorsmed 引用@OncoAlert 4Sight Abstracts to be Presented at #ESMO26 Final Analysis of the GIM3 FATA Trial: Treatment Schedule and Three Aromatase Inhibitors in Postmenopausal HR+ Early Breast Cancer @PietroDePlacido @antoniorusso_pa @delmastro_lucia @MicheleDelauren @fperrone62 🔬 Randomized trial (n=3697): 5 years of anastrozole, exemestane or letrozole, upfront or after 2 years of tamoxifen. Co-primary: DFS by schedule and by AI. ➡️ Upfront vs switch: DFS HR 0.95 (0.82–1.09); OS HR 0.88 (0.74–1.06) ➡️ 10-year DFS 79.1% anastrozole, 76.6% letrozole, 74.2% exemestane (global p=0.028) ➡️ Exemestane vs anastrozole: adjusted DFS HR 1.23 (1.04–1.46). 10-year OS across AIs: no statistically significant difference (p=0.25) ✅ No schedule superior; exemestane associated with worse DFS. Choice should be individualized by tolerability, comorbidities and cost. #BreastCancer 🎙️ Pietro De Placido 👥 Laura Arenare · Erica Pietroluongo · Giancarlo Bisagni · Maria Sarobba · Antonio Russo · Ferdinando Riccardi · Lucia Del Mastro · Antonio Pazzola · Francesco Cognetti · Jennifer Foglietta · Stefania Gori · Francesco Nuzzo · Adriano Gravina · Michelino De Laurentiis · Roberto Bianco · Grazia Arpino · Sabino De Placido · Ciro Gallo · Francesco Perrone (4Sight Made from Abstracts publicly available at the ESMO website) Pinging OncoAlert Breast Cancer Faculty @matteolambe @aftimosp @E_de_Azambuja @DrSGraff @ErikaHamilton9 @hoperugo @stolaney1 @BianchiniGP @aftimosp @kevinpunie @ElisaAgostinett @to_be_elizabeth @GaiaGriguolo @JankovicK @raalbany @JavierCortesMD @JaniceTNBCmets @Prof_Nadia_H @LoiSher @jamecancerdoc @Lucarecco @Dr_Oncologista
