Do proton pump inhibitors affect the effectiveness of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors in advanced HR positive, HER2 negative breast cancer? A meta-analysis
Abstract
Background: The CDK 4/6 inhibitors, including palbociclib and ribociclib, are the standard first-line treatment for hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer. Proton pump inhibitors are one of the most globally prescribed types of medications as part of the treatment for gastroesophageal reflux and heartburn complaints. Medication interactions have been demonstrated, leading to a decrease in the effectiveness of chemotherapy drugs such as capecitabine and pazopanib. However, their role and interaction with targeted therapies such as CDK inhibitors are still poorly understood.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases for studies that investigated the use of PPI with CDK 4/6 inhibitors versus CDK4/6 alone for advanced or metastatic breast cancer. We systematically searched for the currently available CDK inhibitors: palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib. We computed hazard ratios (HRs), with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We used DerSimonian and Laird random-effect models for all endpoints. Heterogeneity was assessed using I2 statistics. R, version 4.2.3, was used for statistical analyses.
Results: A total of 2,737 patients with advanced breast cancer in 9 studies were included, with six studies described the status menopausal as 217 (7.9%) pre-menopause and 1851 (67.6%) post-menopause, for endocrine sensitivity only five studies described1489 (54.4%) patients were…
