Highlights

  • Elinzanetant, a neurokinin 1 and 3 receptor antagonist, significantly reduces moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms in women receiving endocrine therapy for HR-positive breast cancer or prevention.
  • The phase 3 OASIS-4 trial demonstrated robust efficacy at both week 4 and week 12, with sustained symptom reduction over 52 weeks.
  • Adverse events were mostly mild to moderate; common events included headache, fatigue, and somnolence, with a low incidence of serious adverse events.
  • This study fills a critical gap in managing vasomotor symptoms within a sensitive oncology population where hormonal and typical menopausal symptom treatments are limited due to cancer recurrence risks.
