Cellular senescence in the response of HR+ breast cancer to radiotherapy and CDK4/6 inhibitors

160 views | Aug 06 2023

The study findings suggest that the inferiority of CDK4/6 inhibition followed by radiation therapy (P→RT) compared to radiation therapy followed by CDK4/6 inhibition (RT→P) in preclinical models of HR+ breast cancer may be partially attributed to the differential accumulation of senescent cells in the tumor microenvironment.
