We present a case of a 69-year-old otherwise healthy woman who was diagnosed with early ER+Her2- BC at the age of 47 and was treated with lumpectomy, adjuvant chemotherapy, radiation, and adjuvant tamoxifen. Five years after the termination of chemotherapy, she was diagnosed with bone metastasis and received several lines of endocrine therapy and subsequent capecitabine for 17 years altogether.

The patient started a combination of Fulvestrant and Alpelisib with a deep and prolonged clinical and radiological response for 3 years. The occurrence of multiple mutations in PIK3CA was documented in 12-15% of BCs. A retrospective analysis showed that ER+Her2- BC patients with multiple PIK3CA mutations had a significantly higher response rate to PIK3CA inhibitor.

Clinical trials are crucial for further improving outcomes, yet not all sociodemographic groups are equally represented in contemporary lymphoma trials. We conducted a systematic review of the literature evaluating the impact of SDOH on enrollment into clinical trials in the United States and identified 21 relevant studies. We confirmed that Black and Hispanic individuals are underrepresented in lymphoma clinical trials, due largely to the geographic distribution of clinical trial sites and exacerbated by globalization of cancer trials. Women may also be less appropriately represented than men, although this association is less robust and consistent. Adolescents and young adults with lymphoma who are older, treated at adult cancer centers, or managed by adult hematologists/oncologists are all less likely to be part of trials. Older adults are also excluded from most lymphoma clinical trials. There is a dearth of data on how other SDOHs including education, employment, and household income contribute to differences in clinical trial enrollment.
