My cancer is very PR+ and very ER+. I was surprised that HR+ patients were given progesterone in the trials you mentioned. I thought progesterone fed PR+ cancers. Can you explain why giving it might be beneficial?

Thank you so much for these updates. I’m on Ribociclib rather than Abemaciclib so it was so encouraging to see the results. I made a case for receiving Ribociclib rather than Abemaciclib due to QOL - I didn’t think I would be able to tolerate the side effects of starting on the full dose. Although licensed in the UK it’s still not available under the NHS.

I am wondering whether exercise would have an even better outcome so would be interesting to learn if everything combined - medication, exercise and good nutrition - would improve the stats
