    Abstract Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) infection and its severity can be explained by the concentration of glycosylated severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral particles in the lung epithelium, the concentration of glycosylated angiotensin-converting enzyme receptor 2 (ACE2) in the lung epithelium, and the degree and control of the pulmonary immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein at approximately day 8 to 10 after symptom onset, which may be related to both. Binding of ACE2 by SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 also suggests that prolonged uncontrolled hyperglycemia, and not just a history of diabetes mellitus, may be important in the pathogenesis of the disease. It is tempting to consider that the same mechanism acts in COVID-19 as in SARS, where an overactive macrophage M1 inflammatory response, as neutralizing antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein form at day 7 to 10, results in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in susceptible patients. It also allows consideration of agents, such as hydroxychloroquine, which may interfere with this overly brisk macrophage inflammatory response and perhaps influence the course of the disease, in particular, those that blunt but do not completely abrogate the M1 to M2 balance in macrophage polarization, as well as viral load, which in SARS appears to be temporally related to the onset of ARDS.

    Abstract Stringent enrollment criteria can limit the diversity of patient populations in clinical trials and, consequently, the generalizability of clinical trial data to real-world clinical practice. In this podcast, we discuss how real-world data in heterogeneous patient populations can complement clinical trial data in informing treatment decision making for patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) metastatic breast cancer. Specifically, our focus is on P-REALITY X, an observational retrospective analysis that was recently published in npj Breast Cancer. P-REALITY X used real-world data from the Flatiron database to compare the effectiveness of palbociclib plus an aromatase inhibitor versus an aromatase inhibitor alone as first-line treatment for patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer. After stabilized inverse probability treatment weighting to control for observed confounders, both overall survival and real-world progression-free survival were significantly prolonged with palbociclib plus an aromatase inhibitor versus an aromatase inhibitor alone. Furthermore, overall survival and real-world progression-free survival benefits were observed across most subgroups examined. We discuss the clinical implications of P-REALITY X data, including how these results add to data from prior randomized clinical trials and real-world studies in supporting the use of first-line palbociclib plus an aromatase inhibitor as a standard-of-care treatment for patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer. We also provide an example of how to integrate and describe key information about the P-REALITY X study in plain language when discussing palbociclib as a therapeutic option with patients.
