Popis: Background: This paper aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of incorporating CDK 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) into ET for the adjuvant treatment of HR + HER2-resected early-stage breast cancer (ESBC) patients, employing meta-analysis. Methods: In this paper, we compiled randomized clinical trials focusing on CDK4/6i used in the adjuvant treatment of high-risk invasive HR-positive and HER2-ESBC patients. A meta-analysis was performed in line with the PRISMA guidelines. Results: We identified four clinical trials that met our inclusion criteria and were published between 2020 and 2024. These trials involved a combined sample size of 17,749 patients diagnosed with breast cancer. The data obtained from the pooled analysis revealed a remarkable beneficial trend in terms of invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) for the use of ET in combination with CDK4/6i compared to the group receiving ET alone (HR = 0.81, 95 % CI: 0.67–0.98, p = 0.03). Of note, CDK4/6 inhibitors demonstrated a notably beneficial effect in both grade 2 (HR = 0.69, 95 % CI: 0.59–0.81, p
