Overview
This is a multicenter observational study with both retrospective and prospective phase, designed to evaluate the clinico-pathologic characteristics and outcomes of patients with HR+/HER2- EBC at high risk of recurrence treated with ribociclib or abemaciclib in combination with ET in the adjuvant setting.
Description
The study will also evaluate clinico-pathologic characteristics, patterns of recurrence, therapeutic choices and outcomes of the subgroup of patients relapsed during or within 12 months after adjuvant therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitors in combination with ET.
