VERITAC-2: Vepdegestrant showed improved progression free survival in metastatic breast cancer with ESR1 mutation 🧬

As a community oncologist, thrilled that we could offer this trial to our patients close to their homes 🏠 and now see it published today in @nejm.org and presented at #ASCO25

In advanced breast cancer, progression-free survival was significantly longer with vepdegestrant than with fulvestrant among patients with ESR1 mutations but not in the full patient population. Full VERITAC-2 phase 3 trial results: nej.md/3ZoCL7g

Hot tips from #ASCOAdvocacySummit #ASCOAdvocacy:
