INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced results from the Phase 3 EMBER-3 study of imlunestrant, an investigational, oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), in patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC), whose disease progressed on a prior aromatase inhibitor (AI), with or without a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
