Abstract:
Predictive tests, to refine the estrogen receptor assay, for the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer with tamoxifen and oral selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERD) are required. A splice variant of the corepressor NCOR2, BQ2313636.1 predicts tamoxifen resistance to adjuvant tamoxifen and AZ9496, the first oral SERD, completes phase I studies.
