The objective is to retrospectively describe and assess clinical and demographical characteristics, treatment patterns in a real-world (RW) setting of patients with HR+/HER2- (hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative) locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer receiving palbociclib in combination treatment

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) for Participants Who Received Palbociclib in Combination With Aromatase Inhibitor (AI)
PFS was defined as the time from the index date to progression or death, whichever occurred first. Progression of disease was based on scans and blood testing results. Disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm). Index date was date of relapse or stage IV disease. Stage IV disease means that the cancer has spread to distant parts of the body. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Time frame: From index date until the first documentation of disease progression or death or censoring date of 07-Mar-2022 (maximum up to 5.2 years)
Time on Treatment (ToT) for Participants Who Received Palbociclib in Combination With Aromatase Inhibitor (AI)
ToT was defined as date of palbociclib treatment start to date of treatment stop with palbociclib.
Time frame: From start date of palbociclib treatment until stop date of palbociclib treatment (maximum up to 5.2 years)
Overall Survival (OS) in Participants Who Received Palbociclib in Combination With AI
OS was defined as the date of metastatic breast cancer diagnosis until death of any cause. Participants were censored for OS by 01-May-2022. Stage IV disease means that the cancer has spread to distant parts of the body.
Time frame: From date of metastatic breast cancer diagnosis until death due to any cause or censoring date of 01-May-2022 (approximately 6 years)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) for Participants Who Received Palbociclib in Combination With Fulvestrant
PFS was defined as the time from the index date to progression or death, whichever occurred first. Progression of disease was based on scans and blood testing results. Disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Index date was date of relapse or stage IV disease. Stage IV disease means that the cancer has spread to distant parts of the body.

Time on Treatment (ToT) for Participants Who Received Palbociclib in Combination With Fulvestrant
ToT is defined as date of palbociclib treatment start to date of treatment stop with palbociclib.
Time frame: From start date of study treatment until stop date of treatment (maximum up to 5.2 years)
OS in Participants Who Received Palbociclib in Combination With Fulvestrant
OS was defined as the date of metastatic breast cancer diagnosis until death of any cause. Participants were censored for OS by 01-May-2022. Stage IV disease means that the cancer has spread to distant parts of the body.
Time frame: From date of metastatic breast cancer diagnosis until death due to any cause or censoring date of 01-May-2022 (approximately 6 years)
Number of Participants According to First Subsequent Post-Palbociclib Treatment Upon Progression
Disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Number of participants as per first subsequent post-palbociclib therapy upon disease progression was described in this outcome measure.
Time frame: At progression (anytime between 01 January 2017 and 31 December 2020 [maximum up to 4 years])
Number of Participants According to Type of Metastases
Number of participants according to type of metastases (visceral, non-visceral, both visceral and non-visceral and inoperable locally-advanced breast cancer \[ILABC\]) is presented in this outcome measure.
Time frame: At Baseline (anytime between 01 January 2017 and 31 December 2020 [maximum up to 4 years])
Number of Participants According to Number of Metastases
Number of participants according to number of metastases (0,1,2,greater than \[\>\] 2) is presented in this outcome measure.
Time frame: At Baseline (anytime between 01 January 2017 and 31 December 2020 [maximum up to 4 years])
Number of Participants According to Location of Metastases
Number of participants according to location of metastases (skin, bone, lung, liver, central nervous system \[CNS\], other) is presented in this outcome measure. One participant may have more than one location of metastases.
