18 Sept 2020
Abstract excerpt
Background: Endocrine therapy (ET) is the mainstay of treatment for hormone receptor positive HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer, however, adaptive mechanisms emerge in about 25-30% of cases through alterations in the estrogen receptor ligand-binding domain, with a consequent ligand-independent ER activity. Epigenetic-mediated events are less known and potentially involved in alternative mechanisms of...
