Official title: Evaluation of Adherence to Cell Cycle Inhibitors Used as Adjuvant Therapy in Patients With Localized Breast Cancer at High Risk of Recurrence
Run by University Hospital, Grenoble · NCT07443774 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study checks how well patients with localized ER+ breast cancer stick to a combined endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitor after surgery.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (18+) with HR+/HER2-, operable early breast cancer who have had curative surgery and are starting adjuvant endocrine therapy plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not receive or tolerate CDK4/6 inhibitors or who discontinue therapy for reasons unrelated to adherence may not experience the potential benefit.

What this trial studies
This observational study follows adults with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who have had surgery and are starting combined endocrine therapy plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor. It aims to document adherence patterns and persistence with the treatment in real-world settings between 2023 and 2028. Data will be collected from routine clinical practice to understand how often patients take their medications as prescribed and completed treatment courses. The study does not assign treatments but observes how patients adhere to a standard of care that includes adjuvant endocrine therapy plus CDK4/6 inhibition. Results could inform strategies to improve persistence and outcomes in this high-risk population.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If adherence improves, patients may have better long-term disease control and survival.
How similar studies have gone: Prior data show that adherence to adjuvant endocrine therapy is variable; this study extends observations to combination therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitors to see how adherence impacts real-world outcomes.

Non-Inclusion Criteria * Medical, geographical, sociological, psychological, or legal conditions that could prevent the patient from completing the study or from providing informed non-opposition. * Locally advanced, non-operable disease or metastatic disease not amenable to curative-intent treatment
