Description
Summary:Ribociclib has received approval in the pre/peri- and postmenopausal disease settings on the basis of the MONALEESA trials. MONALEESA-2 demonstrated that ribociclib plus letrozole significantly improved progression-free survival compared with placebo plus letrozole as first-line therapy in postmenopausal patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer. Subsequently, ongoing trials reported significant progression-free survival improvements with ribociclib in combination with either fulvestrant in postmenopausal patients with advanced breast cancer who were either treatment naive or received ≤1 line of prior endocrine therapy in the advanced disease setting (MONALEESA-3) or tamoxifen/nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor with ovarian function suppression in pre/perimenopausal women (MONALEESA-7). This review summarizes the MONALEESA clinical program. identifiers: NCT01958021 (MONALEESA-2), NCT02422615 (MONALEESA-3), NCT02278120 (MONALEESA-7).
