Clinical Case of the Use of Oral Metronomic Vinorelbin in Patient with Metastatic Her2 Negative Breast Cancer

Endocrine therapy in combination with inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases 4/6 in first lines is the current standard of treatment of metastatic ER positive Her2 negative breast cancer. After progression on several lines of endocrine therapy according to current principles we apply sequential lines of monochemotherapy. If possible non-toxic agents are prefered in order to maintain high quality of life. The special role in this context may play oral agents, when regular visits in clinic and intravenous injection are not needed. The efficacy of oral vinorelbine is well explored, unfortunately the standard dosage regimen сan have quite high especially hematologic toxicity. The metronomic dosing regimen is believed to be as effective as the standard, but is less toxic. In addition, the anti-angiogenic properties of the metronomic mode are described. Taking into account the increasing use of combination of endocrine therapy with CDK4/6 inhibitors in first treatment lines, it is extremely important to study the efficacy and tolerability of various regimens and drugs after progression on combined endocrine therapy. In this article, we represent a clinical case of the use of oral vinorelbine in the metronomic mode in the patient after progression on combination of fulvestrant and palbociclib. Long-term disease control with satisfactory quality of life has been demonstrated.
