Résumé : BACKGROUND: The combination of cyclin-dependent kinases 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6is) and endocrine therapy (ET) is standard of care for patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (BC). However, studies evaluating adjuvant CDK4/6is provided contradictory results thus far. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess if the addition of CDK4/6is to adjuvant ET impacts on survival's outcomes and safety of patients with HR+/HER2- early BC (EBC). This study was conducted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in the PROSPERO database (ID: CRD42020218597). A systematic review of PubMed, Cochrane and EMBASE databases and major conference proceedings was performed up to 15 December 2020. All randomized controlled trials including patients with HR+/HER2- EBC treated with CDK4/6is plus ET versus ET alone in the adjuvant setting were included. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) for survival and safety outcomes, respectively, were calculated with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) using random effect models. RESULTS: With data available from three studies (N = 12 647), the addition of CDK4/6is to adjuvant ET showed a trend for a benefit in terms of invasive disease-free survival (IDFS; HR 0.85, 95% CI 0.71-1.01; P = 0.071). No significant improvement in distant relapse-free survival was observed (HR 0.83, 95% CI 0.58-1.19; P = 0.311). The risk of all-grade toxicities and early treatment discontinuation increased significantly with the addition of CDK4/6is to ET (OR 9.36, 95% CI 3.46-25.33, P < 0.001, and OR 22.11, 95% CI 9.45-51.69, P < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION: The administration of adjuvant CDK4/6is to patients with HR+/HER2- EBC showed a trend for an IDFS benefit and an increase in the risk of toxicities and treatment discontinuation. The role of adjuvant CDK4/6is remains controversial and a longer follow-up of these randomized controlled trials is needed before supporting a straightforward change in clinical practice.
