ABSTRACT
Aim:
This real-world study aimed to describe patient and clinical characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes for patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer receiving abemaciclib in France, Italy and Spain. Materials &methods:
A multicenter chart review was conducted for adult females with HR+/HER2- advanced/metastatic breast cancer who received abemaciclib in routine care. Real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) was estimated via Kaplan-Meier curves.Results:
This study included 151, 173 and 175 patients from France, Italy and Spain, respectively. Abemaciclib was mostly prescribed as first-line therapy concomitantly with hormone therapy. Median rwPFS was >20 months and the 1-year rwPFS rate was >70%.Conclusion:
Effectiveness was similar across the three countries and aligns with pivotal studies.

The information used to conduct this study was taken from patients' medical charts. In this real-world study, abemaciclib was mostly used as the initial treatment for advanced breast cancer.
