    Why did she receive capecitabine and not palbociclib with fulvestrant? I would consider this combination

    Well that is not a proven combination. The combination with fulvestrant is with abemaciclib. In my opinion i believe she would have been a candidate to bilateral lymphadenectomy and fulvestrant only or in case she rejected surgery fulvestrant only

    Paloma 3 (The Lancet Oncology2016) is Palbociclib with Fulvestrant.

    In US and Europe palbocicllib is approved in combination with an aromatase inhibitor as initial endocrine based therapy and with fulvestrant for progressive disease following endocrine therapy.

    If the patient received fulvestrant alone, she would be deprived of the possibility to do palbociclib thereafter...
