Body mass index in postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer: An exploratory analysis of the LORELEI trial. (PubMed, Eur J Cancer)
Obesity was associated with lower ORR with letrozole alone, whereas this association was not observed in patients treated with taselisib.

Surgical Resection of Metastatic Male Breast Cancer to the Brain: An Illustrative Case Report. (PubMed, Clin Case Rep)
Postoperatively, he received adjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery (30-35 Gy in five fractions) to the resection cavity and was transitioned from tamoxifen to trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) for improved CNS-directed systemic therapy. Surveillance imaging at 6 months demonstrated no intracranial recurrence, and systemic restaging showed no extracranial disease progression. This case highlights the importance of prompt neuroimaging for new neurological symptoms in male breast cancer patients and supports a multimodal strategy, including surgical resection, focal radiation, and CNS-penetrant HER2-targeted therapy, for achieving durable intracranial control in select patients with isolated brain metastasis.

Exploiting androgen receptor agonism as a treatment strategy in estrogen receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. (PubMed, NPJ Breast Cancer)
A transcriptional signature associated with SARM sensitivity was identified, primarily driven by proliferation-related processes, consistent with a significant decrease in S-phase cell cycle proteins upon treatment in EP0062-sensitive models. In some EP0062-resistant tumors, the combination with palbociclib enhanced the antitumor effect of EP0062, suggesting a potential strategy for metastatic patients with acquired ET resistance.

Prognosis of ER-positive, HER2-negative postmenopausal early breast cancer patients based on response to neoadjuvant endocrine therapy and multigene assay results: findings from the NEOS trial. (PubMed, Breast Cancer)
The need for chemotherapy in postmenopausal HR + , HER2- breast cancer patients might be further informed by integrating the results of the Oncotype DX test with the response to NET.

Design, synthesis, in vitro and in silico evaluation of novel 5-(1-benzyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole derivatives against ER-positive breast cancer. (PubMed, Bioorg Chem)
Compounds 19 and 21 underscored significant human ERα inhibition in contrast to tamoxifen and bazedoxifene...Moreover, pharmacokinetics and DFT analysis ensured drug-likeness and bio-feasibility of promising molecules. Finally, based on interaction-analysis, bio-assay findings, and 3D-QSAR mapping, an overall structure-activity correlation was established for future-optimization and lead-development of indole - 4,5-dihydroisoxazole hybrids against ER+ BC.

A Case of Intense 18F-fluoroestradiol (18F-FES) Uptake in Hepatic Focal Nodular Hyperplasia. (PubMed, Clin Nucl Med)
This case demonstrates that FNH can exhibit marked FES uptake. Awareness of this benign cause of FES avidity is important to avoid misinterpreting hepatic FES-avid lesions as metastasis.

Anastrozole-Induced Tumor Lysis Syndrome in Breast Cancer: A Case Report of a Rare Critical Care Emergency. (PubMed, Case Rep Oncol)
Despite aggressive critical care management, she experienced cardiac arrest and died. This case may represent the first reported fatal occurrence of anastrozole-associated TLS in advanced breast cancer, underscoring the need for vigilance for TLS even with hormonal agents traditionally considered low-toxicity.

Evaluating the Association of Ki-67 with Oncotype DX Recurrence Score in Early-Stage ER-Positive/HER2-Negative Breast Cancer. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Overall concordance between Ki-67-based proliferation categories and RS-based genomic risk was 56.2%, with discordant cases in both directions. Ki-67 shows a modest association with Oncotype DX RS, but substantial discordance indicates Ki-67 should not substitute genomic testing in HR-positive/HER2-negative early breast cancer.
