PURPOSE: In hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative metastatic breast cancer (HR+ HER2-MBC), the mainstay treatment options include cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) and everolimus (EVE) in combination with endocrine treatment. This study aims to compare the outcomes of the following treatment sequences: CDK4/6i followed by EVE and EVE followed by CDK4/6i. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data from HR+ HER2- MBC patients treated between January 2014 and November 2020 with both CDK4/6i and EVE were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 88 patients included in the study, 51 received CDK4/6i before EVE (CâE group), and 37 received EVE before CDK4/6i (EâC group) with endocrine treatment. More patients in the EâC group had endocrine resistance (13.7% vs. 40.5%), experienced palliative chemotherapy (7.8% vs. 40.5%), and were heavily treated (treated as ≥ 3rd line, 5.9% vs. 40.5%). Median overall survival was 46.8 months in the CâE group and 38.9 months in the EâC group (p=0.151). Median composite progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from the start of the preceding regimen to disease progression on the following regimen or death, was 24.8 months in the CâE group vs. 21.8 months in the EâC group (p=0.681). Median PFS2/PFS1 ratio did not differ significantly between groups (0.5 in the CâE group, 0.6 in the EâC group; p=0.775). Ten patients (11.4%) discontinued EVE, and two patients (2.3%) discontinued CDK4/6i during treatment. CONCLUSION: Although the CDK4/6i-based regimen should be considered as an earlier line of treatment, CDK4/6i- and EVE-based treatments can be valid options in circumstances where the other treatment had been already given.
