About this study

In plain language

This study tests a plan to raise the dose of abemaciclib, given with hormone therapy. It is for people with early-stage breast cancer at high risk of coming back whose cancer uses hormones to grow (HR+) and is HER2-negative.

This is a post-marketing single arm, phase IV trial in which patients with high-risk early-stage HR+HER2- breast cancer will receive adjuvant abemaciclib in combination with endocrine therapy (ET) After study intervention, participants will remain on combination abemaciclib + ET at the discretion of their treating providers

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
