Imlunestrant
for Early Breast Cancer
This trial is testing a new medication called imlunestrant to see if it works better than standard hormone treatments for certain breast cancer patients. The study focuses on patients with early-stage breast cancer that is estrogen receptor positive and HER2 negative, who have already been on hormone therapy for a period of time and are at high risk of their cancer returning. Imlunestrant works by blocking estrogen from helping cancer cells grow.
