Hermione Exchange Educational Program: How to Integrate Multidisciplinary Approaches to Manage HR+/HER2- Metastatic Breast Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/
objectiveGiven the increasing complexity of the luminal breast cancer landscape, a proper characterization is required in everyday clinical practice, and the recurrence after the standard first-line treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors with/without endocrine therapy should be managed.
methodThe Hermione Exchange Educational Program was held in Milan, Italy, between September 2024 and January 2025. Two questionnaires were proposed regarding the use of targeted treatment or chemotherapy after progression from CDK4/6 inhibitors. The lecture and use cases enhanced the discussion during the workshops.
resultsFrom the surveys, it emerged that most participants (69%) considered liver metastases at CDK4/6-inhibitor progression as a key reason to initiate chemotherapy, while lung progression influenced this choice for 50% of participants. Liver involvement guided the use of targeted therapy for 56%, and attitudes were divided on whether the duration of first-line CDK4/6 therapy should affect decisions (44% in agreement vs. 38% in disagreement). The willingness of patients to receive chemotherapy (88%) and comorbidities (81%) were significant drivers. Almost all participants agreed that both the duration of response and the molecular status were key aspects to consider when choosing a second line of therapy, along with the general clinical condition of the patient. In the lecture, tissue and liquid biopsy are considered powerful tools to describe tumor molecular features over time; such complexity should be harnessed by a close dialogue between oncologists, molecular biologists, and pathologists to optimize the therapeutic choice according to the mutational status of patients. The use cases illustrate three patients with visceral progression, non-visceral progression within 12 months, and non-visceral progression after 12 months following CDK4/6 inhibitors.
conclusionGenomic testing should be considered at diagnosis and repeated during treatment to monitor the disease. The clinical experience acquired over the years must be integrated with new molecular knowledge.
