e13052 Background: Endocrine therapy combined with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) is the preferred treatment for hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2–) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, there are currently no recommendations for therapeutic strategies after progression on CDK4/6i-based treatment. This study aimed to examine the efficacy and safety of anlotinib plus chemotherapy in HR+/HER2-MBC after progression on CDK4/6 inhibitors. Methods: We collected data from 32 patients with HR+/HER2– MBC treated with anlotinib plus chemotherapy after progressing on CDK4/6i at Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from March 2020 to October 2023. The median follow-up was 9.1 months (range, 2.0-19.7 months) as of the data cutoff date in October 2023. The primary endpoint was median progression-free survival (PFS), secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and adverse events. Results: The median PFS (mPFS) of all patients was 7.6 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 5.75-9.45]. There was no significant difference in mPFS between patients who responded to prior CDK4/6i treatment and those who did not. (8.3 months versus 6.8 months, p = 0.580). Besides, the ORR was 34.4% and DCR was 93.8%. The most frequently observed adverse events were anemia (50.0%), neutropenia (40.6%), thrombocytopenia (34.4%), and epistaxis (34.4%). Dose interruption or reductions due to adverse events occurred in 2(6.3%) and 5 (15.6%) patients, respectively. Conclusions: The study preliminarily demonstrates that anlotinib combined with chemotherapy may be an optional recommendation for patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer who have progressed after CDK4/6i.
