Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer. In the presence of distant metastases, the median overall survival does not exceed 14 months. TNBC is an extremely heterogeneous group of tumors, it includes both tumors extremely sensitive to chemotherapy and tumors that require targeted or immunotherapy for the best treatment outcomes. Such subtype features make it difficult to develop a single treatment strategy for all patients. Current perceptions of resistance mechanisms and molecular drivers progression have increased therapeutic opportunities for metastatic TNBC (mTNBC). For example, in the last few years, checkpoint inhibitors and PARP inhibitors have entered into clinical practice in the Russian Federation. This review presents clinical trial data, as well as an algorithm for choosing therapy for patients with TNBC, based on the results of recent clinical studies. The review focuses mainly on drugs registered at the territory of the Russian Federation, that allows to apply these options in everyday clinical practice. Promising directions therapy of mTNBC not registered at the territory of the Russian Federation yet will be showed in a separate review in the next issue in the Journal of Modern Oncology.

Metastatic triple negative breast cancer (mTNBC) is a difficult task for the chemotherapist in view of the disease aggressiveness, biological heterogeneity of the tumor, as well as the limit of therapy options. The approved modern drugs, such as immunotherapy and PARP inhibitors, have improved the treatment results in women with mTNBC. However, not all women are the candidates for this kind of therapy due to the lack of suitable points of application. In this context, high hopes are placed on the new treatment options currently being studied in clinical trials. The review summarizes data on advanced drugs that have demonstrated their efficacy in this multiplex group of women, but not yet registered at the territory of the Russian Federation Russian Federation, and will allow us to form an idea of the future algorithm of treatment of women with mTNBC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
