ABSTRACT:

The second most common cancer among women, after lung cancer, is breast cancer. The main form of treatment for the most prevalent subtype of breast cancer, hormone receptor (HR) positive, HER2 negative breast cancer, is endocrine therapy. Although there are various endocrine treatment medications available, virtually all metastatic HR-positive breast tumors will develop drug resistance to them. An essential method of resistance to aromatase drugs is represented by ESR1 mutations. As a potential therapy for ER+ breast cancer, Elacestrant is a new, non-steroidal, selective estrogen receptor degrader with complicated dose-related ER agonist/antagonist action. A brand-new oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), Elacestrant targets the estrogen receptor specifically on breast cancer cells to stop tumor growth. In patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer, elacestrant showed a significant, albeit moderate, improvement in median progression-free survival (PFS) compared to standard of care endocrine therapy. Importantly, individuals with ESR1 mutations also benefited significantly, which prompted the FDA to approve Elacestrant for use in this patient population. Upper gastrointestinal symptoms were the most common side effects of Elacestrant, which was generally well tolerated. There are numerous current clinical trials assessing the effectiveness of Elacestrant in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, both alone and in combination with other targeted therapies. The review will provide necessary details regarding Elacestrant.

 

KEYWORDS: Breast cancer, Elacestrant, Endocrine therapy, ESR1 mutation, Estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, Selective Estrogen Receptor Degrader (SERD).

 

 


INTRODUCTION:

Based on the expression of the tumor's receptors, especially whether the tumor expresses the Human Epidermal Growth Factor receptor-2 (HER2) gene, the Progesterone receptor (PR), the Estrogen receptor (ER), or both, breast cancer is categorized into subgroups.1

 

 

Most patients with breast cancer are classified as having ER+ disease. Because this disease segment depends on ER, most treatment efforts focus on inhibiting distinct portions of this route.2

 

 

Figure 1. Representation of HER2-Positive Cancer Cell 4

In reality, the standard of care for patients with ER-positive breast cancer still involves either regulating the activity of the ER pathway (such as with tamoxifen) or inhibiting the production of estrogen (such as with aromatase inhibitors [AI]).3

 

Because of this ongoing reliance on ER, novel selective estrogen receptor degraders, or SERDs, have received a lot of interest as a potential means of improving progression-free survival and providing longer-lasting benefits.5

 

Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), such as tamoxifen, block estrogen receptor (ER) function.  examples of available endocrine drugs are selective estrogen receptor blocking agents (SERDs), such as fulvestrant, and aromatase inhibitors. The only SERD approved for hormone receptor-positive postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer is fulvestrant. Compared with anastrozole, fulvestrant showed significant therapeutic benefit and longer progression-free survival (PFS).6 Fulvestrant has limitations due to its intramuscular route of administration and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties, highlighting the need for new potent ER antagonists with better PK profiles.5,7 The investigational non-steroidal oral SERD is an elastic band. Elacestrant showed dose-dependent degradation of ER in ER+ breast cancer cell lines and reduced estradiol-dependent stimulation of ER target gene transcription and cell proliferation.5,7,8 Elacestrant inhibited estradiol-activated tumor growth in ER+ MCF-7 breast cancer. Cells lineal xenograft models and patient-derived xenograft models from patients who have undergone extensive pre-treatment.5,7,8 In addition to resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors, Elacestrant has also shown antitumor activity in breast cancer animals with resistance-causing mutations. in the estrogen receptor alpha gene (ESR1), such as Y537S and D538G.5,9,10 In a phase 1 study (RAD1901-005) in heavily pretreated postmenopausal women with ER+/human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)2 advanced/metastatic breast cancer (ABC/mBC), 400 mg Elacestrant daily had an objective response rate (ORR) of 19.4% and a median PFS of 4.5 months.11 The current phase 1b study (RAD1901-106) was initiated while the RAD1901-005 phase 1 study was still ongoing to investigate how elacestrant treatment affected ER availability in lesions of ABC patients using low-dose FES-PET computed tomography (FES-PET/CT) to measure ER level regulation. Trial and objectives also included evaluation of PK, safety, initial efficacy, correlation of ER availability and response, and initial efficacy of Elacestrant in postmenopausal women with ER + ABC.12

Mechanism of Action:

SERDs favor and oppose ER transcriptional exertion. These agents bind to the ER, incapacitate and destabilize the ER- SERD complex, promoting ER declination via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.24 Recent studies indicate that SERDs reduce ER nuclear translocation, thereby adding ER development due to limited intracellular mobility. In addition, SERD- related conformational changes in the ER reduce the recap of ER- modulated genes. In the clinical setting of Estrogen Receptor 1(ESR1) mutation- convinced ET resistance, SERDs are also useful.25

 

The estrogen receptor nascence (ERα) binding emulsion Elacestrant is an estrogen receptor antagonist. In ER-positive (ER), HER2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer cells, elacestrant reduced 17-estradiol-intermediated cell proliferation at attention that convinced ER protein declination via the proteasomal pathway.26 Breast cancer models with ER HER2 status resistant to fulvestrant and cyclin-dependent kinase4/6 impediments and models with estrogen receptor 1 gene (ESR1) mutations showed antitumor efficacy when Elacestrant was used in both in vitro and in vivo studies.15

CONCLUSION:

Elacestrant, an oral non-steroidal SERM/ SERD having an amino basic side chain, has been shown to be effective as a monotherapy as well as in combination with palbociclib or everolimus to suppress ER signaling and exhibit antitumor activity in HR+ BC cell lines and patient-derived xenografts. Additionally, elacestrant was tested in vivo and in vitro models of BC that were resistant to CDK4/6i, and it was found to decrease tumor development even in the presence of ESR1 mutations. Due to its unusual pharmacologic properties, elacestrant functions as a SERD at larger doses and as a SERM at lower ones. The distinct pharmacologic characteristics, in addition to its capacity to traverse the blood-brain barrier and its efficacy against both wild-type (WT) and mutated ER (such as the Y537S and D538G variants, which are typically linked to significant resistance to ET), may be ascribed to the distinct binding mechanism of elacestrant with ER.
