Oral selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs) are pure estrogen receptor antagonists that have the potential to overcome common resistance mechanisms to endocrine therapy in estrogen receptor–positive breast cancer. There are currently five oral SERDs in published and ongoing clinical trials—elacestrant, camizestrant, giredestrant, imlunestrant, and amcenestrant—with more in development. They offer a reasonably well-tolerated oral therapy option with low discontinuation rates in studies. This review summarizes the currently available literature on this new class of drugs.
