Adjuvant abemaciclib combined with endocrine therapy for high-risk early breast cancer: updated efficacy and Ki-67 analysis from the monarchE study

N. Harbeck et al.

Summary: Adjuvant abemaciclib combined with endocrine therapy significantly improved invasive disease-free survival in patients with early breast cancer, with an acceptable safety profile. Ki-67 index was prognostic but did not affect the benefits of abemaciclib. The robust treatment benefit of abemaciclib extended beyond the planned 2-year treatment period.

Assessment of Ki67 in Breast Cancer: Updated Recommendations From the International Ki67 in Breast Cancer Working Group

Torsten O. Nielsen et al.

Summary: Ki67 immunohistochemistry (IHC) is commonly used in breast cancer as a proliferation marker, but its analytical validity has been questioned. The International Ki67 in Breast Cancer Working Group (IKWG) recommends careful preanalytical handling, adoption of a standardized visual scoring method, and participation in quality assurance and quality control programs. Clinical utility of Ki67 IHC in breast cancer care is currently limited to prognosis assessment in stage I or II breast cancer.
