By leveraging a community-based, cancer-specific electronic healthcare record for this study, we aim to understand treatment patterns and clinical outcomes among patients with HR+/HER2- mBC who received care within the context of a large community oncology network in the United States.

Time to Chemotherapy
Time to chemotherapy was defined as the interval (in weeks) between index treatment (palbociclib +fulvestrant) and start of chemotherapy as documented in the iKnowMed (iKM) EHR database. Participants with ongoing treatment at the study observation period were censored on the study end date or the last visit date available in the dataset, whichever occurred first. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Time frame: From start of index treatment until start of chemotherapy or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Number of Participants According to Reasons for Treatment Discontinuation
The number of participants classified according to the reasons for treatment discontinuation were reported in this outcome measure.
Time frame: From start of index treatment until stop of index treatment or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Real-World Duration of Treatment (rwDOT)
Real-world duration of treatment (rwDOT) was defined as the interval between the start and stop index treatment as documented in the iKM EHR database. Participants with ongoing treatment at the study observation period were censored on the study end date or the last visit date available in the dataset, whichever occurred first. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Time frame: From start of index treatment until stop of index treatment or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Time to Next Treatment (TTNT) From Index Treatment
Time to next treatment (TTNT) was defined as the interval between the start of the index treatment and the date of the next-line treatment as documented in the iKM EHR database. Participants who did not advance to the next treatment within the study observation period were censored on the study end date or the last visit date available in the dataset, whichever occurred first. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.

Time frame: From start of index treatment to date of next line treatment or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Percentage of Participants With Provider Documented Disease Progression
Percentage of participants with provider documented progression (documented as disease has progressed or worsening of disease) is reported in this outcome measure.
Time frame: From start of treatment until documented disease progression, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Real-World Time to Tumor Progression (rwTTP)
The rwTTP was measured from the initiation of index treatment to the date of provider-documented progression (documented by provider as disease has progressed or worsening of disease), censoring participants without evidence of provider-documented progression at the last visit date. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Time frame: From initiation of the index treatment to the date of progression or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Real-World Progression-Free Survival (rwPFS)
The rwPFS was measured from the initiation of the index treatment to the date of progression (documented by provider as disease has progressed or worsening of disease) or date of death due to any cause, censoring participants who were still alive at the end of the study observation period and did not progress at the last visit date. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Time frame: From initiation of index treatment to date of progression or death due to any cause or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
Overall Survival (OS)
Overall survival (OS) was defined as the interval between index treatment and the date of death (any cause) as documented in the Limited Access Death Master File (LADMF), National Death Index (NDI) and the iKM EHR database. Participants who did not die within the study observation period were censored on the study end date or the last visit date available in the dataset, whichever occurred first. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Time frame: From start of index treatment until date of death or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)
