Metastatic breast cancer (mBC) remains an incurable disease, and most patients will experience disease progression during their treatment course. Although endocrine therapy remains the mainstay of treatment for hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative mBC, significant progress has been and continues to be made in the treatment of this BC subtype. The discovery of molecular markers, mutations in key cellular pathways, and genomic signatures have led to the development of novel and targeted agents, such as antibody-drug conjugates, oral selective estrogen receptor downregulators, and inhibitors of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. This has resulted in significant improvements in the survival and quality of life of patients. With the increasing number of treatment options for patients, appropriate drug sequencing remains a challenge. Treatment discussions should involve patient-physician shared decision making, with consideration of genomic data, previous lines of therapy, side effect profiles, and clinical trial enrollment.
