Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1.Postmenopausal, premenopausal, or perimenopausal female patients aged >=18 years. 2.Female patients with pathologically confirmed hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer, who are not eligible for curative-intent surgical resection or radiotherapy. 3.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0–2. 4.No prior systemic therapy received for the recurrent/metastatic stage, and presence of indications for chemotherapy; symptomatic visceral metastases, rapidly progressive disease, or visceral disease requiring urgent intervention are permitted.

Additionally, they must be willing to either abstain from sexual activity or use a medically approved highly effective contraceptive method after signing the informed consent form, during the study period, and for 1 year after the last dose of study treatment. 8.Voluntary participation in the study, signing of the informed consent form, good compliance, and willingness to cooperate with follow-up.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Patients with a history of CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment. 2.Patients who experienced recurrence within 2 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy. 3.Patients receiving concurrent anti-tumor therapy (e.g., traditional Chinese medicines or proprietary Chinese medicines containing anti-tumor components). 4.Patients with isolated bone metastases, regardless of whether the disease is recurrent/metastatic or newly diagnosed stage IV breast cancer. 5.Patients with active brain metastases. 6.Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS); positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) with hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV DNA) >= 2000 IU/ml; hepatitis C (positive hepatitis C antibody with hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV-RNA) above the lower limit of detection of the analytical method); or concurrent hepatitis B and hepatitis C co-infection. 7.Occurrence of any of the following conditions within 6 months before enrollment: myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina pectoris, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class >=2 heart failure, persistent arrhythmia of grade = 2 (per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI CTCAE] Version 5.0), atrial fibrillation of any grade, coronary/peripheral artery bypass grafting, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack), symptomatic pulmonary embolism, or new-onset thrombosis. 8.Severe infection within 4 weeks before the first dose of study treatment (e.g., requiring intravenous administration of antibiotics, antifungals, or antivirals in accordance with clinical practice guidelines); or unexplained fever > 38.5°C during screening or before the first dose. 9.Inability to swallow, intestinal obstruction, or other factors that affect drug administration and absorption. 10.Known hypersensitivity to any of the drugs used in the combined treatment regimen of the study or any of their excipients. 11.Known history of allogeneic organ transplantation or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. 12.Known history of psychotropic substance abuse or drug addiction. 13.Pregnant or lactating female patients. 14.Any other conditions deemed by the investigator to make the subject unsuitable for participation in the study.
