Eribulin combined with radiation therapy in a young patient re‐irradiated for a new lesion of breast cancer

Eribulin is widely used in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, with a manageable toxicity profile. This aggressive disease often requires systemic and local treatments, comprising surgery or radiotherapy. However, eribulin is usually discontinued during radiation therapy due to the lack of data concerning the safety of this combination, especially in the setting of repeat locoregional radiation therapy. Our patient was diagnosed with ER positive invasive ductal carcinoma of the left breast initially treated by surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy. She then received various lines of chemotherapy for multiple triple-negative relapses in the left axillary region. Since October 2020, she has been treated by eribulin. In order to improve local control, it was decided to add local radiation therapy to the region of recurrence in addition to systemic therapy. She underwent radiation therapy concomitantly with eribulin from February to March 2021. Treatment was very well tolerated, and no acute toxicity was reported. This is the first published case of repeat locoregional radiation therapy in combination with eribulin.
