CDK 4/6 inhibitors and stereotactic radiation in the management of hormone receptor positive breast cancer brain metastases.

Purpose Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors are becoming increasingly utilized in the setting of advanced, hormone receptor (HR+) positive breast cancer. Pre-clinical data suggests a potential synergy between radiation therapy (RT) and CDK4/6 inhibitors. We assessed clinical outcomes of patients treated at our institution with the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors and stereotactic radiation in the management of HR+ breast brain metastases.
