combination of chidamide and fulvestrant for hr+/her2- breast cancer that has failed previous cdk4/6 i adjuvant therapy

Conditions: Hormone Receptor-positive Advanced Breast Cancer

Summary: this trial is a single-arm study. the purpose of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chidamide and fulvestrant in hr+/her2- breast cancer that has failed prior adjuvant endocrine therapy with cdk4/6 inhibitors.

the study was a single-center, single-arm, open trial design. twenty-three patients with advanced hr+/her2- breast cancer who had failed previous adjuvant treatment with cdk4/6 inhibitors in combination with endocrine therapy were treated with fulvestrant and chidamide.
