Background
CDK4/6 inhibitors and PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitors are both emerging agents for hormonal receptor (HR) positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative metastatic breast cancer. Evidence for the comparisons from head-to-head comparative trials is currently insufficient.

Primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Seco…
