monarchE: two years of abemaciclib after surgery in high-risk, hormone-receptor-positive early breast cancer

Women with hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to lymph nodes and has other high-risk features can now be offered two years of abemaciclib alongside their hormone therapy, with a durable reduction in relapse. It does not apply to node-negative or low-risk disease, and the diarrhoea and cost are real trade-offs to discuss.
