id="_Elacestrant_OVERVIEW_">OVERVIEW</h2><div id="Elacestrant.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Elacestrant is an estrogen receptor antagonist which is used for treatment of specific forms of refractory, advanced or metastatic breast cancer in postmenopausal women or adult men. Elacestrant has not been linked to elevations in serum aminotransferase levels during therapy or to cases of clinically apparent liver injury.</p></div><div id="Elacestrant.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Elacestrant (el&#x0201d; a ses&#x02019; trant) is a small molecule, estrogen receptor (ER) degrader that is used to treat postmenopausal women or adult men with advanced or metastatic breast cancer that is positive for ER and negative for human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2). Elacestrant was the first orally available estrogen receptor degrader, a previous similarly active drug was fulvestrant which requires intramuscular injections every 2 to 4 weeks. Elacestrant binds to the estrogen receptor alpha and leads to its degradation, making cells resistant to estrogen-stimulated cell proliferation. In registration trials, elacestrant improved progression-free survival in women with advanced or metastatic, ER-positive, and HER2-negative breast cancer after failure of conventional antiestrogen therapy. Post hoc analyses showed that the benefit from elacestrant was largely in women who harbored an ESR1 mutation and when it was approved for use in the United States in 2023, the formal indications were limited to women with cancers and this specific mutation who have had disease progression following endocrine therapy. Elacestrant is available in tablets of 86 and 345 mg under the brand name Orserdu. The recommended dose is 345 mg daily to be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. The dose can be decreased for adverse events or for preexisting moderate degrees of hepatic dysfunction. Common side effects include musculoskeletal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, headache, and hot flushes. Laboratory abnormalities during elacestrant therapy can include increases in cholesterol and triglyceride, creatinine, and aminotransferase levels and decreases in hemoglobin and sodium. Less common but potentially severe adverse events include severe dyslipidemia and embryo-fetal toxicity.</p></div><div id="Elacestrant.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>In the major registration trial of elacestrant as therapy of breast cancer, serum ALT elevations arose in similar proportions of those on elacestrant as of the controls receiving &#x0201c;standard of care&#x0201d; (9% vs 10%) and were above 5 times the upper limit of normal in 2.1% vs 0.9% of controls. The elevations were transient and without symptoms or jaundice. No patient developed clinically apparent liver injury. Since its approval and more widespread use, there have been no published reports of hepatotoxicity attributed to elacestrant therapy.</p><p>Likelihood score: E (unlikely cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Elacestrant.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The mechanism by which elacestrant might cause liver injury is not known. Elacestrant is a complex small molecule (a tetrahydronaphthalene) and is metabolized in the liver, predominantly by CYP 3A4. Elacestrant is susceptible to drug-drug interactions; moderate inhibitors of CYP 3A4 can cause increases in plasma levels to potentially toxic levels, and moderate inducers of CYP 3A4 can cause decreases in plasma levels to potentially subtherapeutic levels.</p></div><div id="Elacestrant.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>There is no evidence that elacestrant therapy can cause severe elevations in serum enzymes or lead to clinically apparent liver injury.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/AntineoplasticAgents/?report=reader">Antineoplastic Agents</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/AromataseInhibitors/?report=reader">Antiestrogens</a></p><p>Other Selective Estrogen Receptor Degraders: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Fulvestrant/?report=reader">Fulvestrant</a></p><p>Other Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators: <a href="/books/n/livertox/SERMS/?report=reader">Raloxifene</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Tamoxifen/?report=reader">Tamoxifen</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Toremifene/?report=reader">Toremifene</a></p></div></div><div id="Elacestrant.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Elacestrant_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><p>
