Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) on Friday stated that two years of adjuvant Verzenio plus endocrine therapy reduced the risk of death by 15.8% as compared to endocrine therapy (ET) alone in a late-stage trial in patients with a certain type of high-risk early breast cancer.

According to the firm, Verzenio is the first contemporary therapy in over two decades to demonstrate a significant overall survival benefit in this type of breast cancer.

Furthermore, treatment with Verzenio plus endocrine therapy led to a sustained reduction in risk of recurrence at seven years, Lilly said. The company noted that 32% fewer patients treated with Verzenio plus ET were living with metastatic disease compared to those receiving ET alone.
