Abstract

Background: The identification of the novel targeted therapy i.e., cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) 4/6 inhibitor as combined with the endocrine regimen revealed a considerable capability to increase the managements’ effectivity of hormone-receptor-positive (HR+) and HER2- breast cancer (BC). Objective: This study aims to compare the latter combination strategies versus hormonal therapy alone to determine its applicability in the treatment of HR+/HER2- BC. Methods: We established the review based on the clinical trials as collected from several scientific databases from January 2011 to April 2021. RevMan 5.4 was utilized in statistical analysis and risk of bias (RoB) measurement. 5110 participants from 9 different trials were included in this review with similar baseline characteristics. Results: According to our analysis of the intention-to-treat (ITT) group, CDK 4/6 inhibitor arms exhibited better overall response rate (ORR) as indicated by the relative risk (RR) (randomized-effect model (REM), 1.59 [1.37, 1.86]; 95% confidence interval (CI); P

Key words: Breast cancer, CDK 4/6 inhibitor, Endocrine treatment.
