Talk of CDK 4/6 inhibitors are all over #BCSM but it is so unclear who should get this treatment and when? I’m 8 months out from my diagnosis and wondering if I still qualify for it. Anyone on one?

It's completely understandable to feel confused about CDK 4/6 inhibitors - these treatments can be complex, and timing questions are really important to discuss with your oncology team since they know your specific situation best. Many people in this community have experience with these medications, so hopefully others will share their insights and help you feel less alone in navigating these treatment decisions.

If you look up the MonarchE study, they clearly lay out the guidelines of those who would benefit from this treatment, that should be a helpful starting point.
