Objective: To review the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of sacituzumab govitecan (-hziy; IMMU-132, Trodelvy) for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) who have received at least 2 prior therapies for metastatic disease. Data Sources: A literature search was conducted utilizing PubMed and MEDLINE databases, applicable published abstracts, and ongoing studies from ClinicalTrials.gov between January 1, 1981, and September 3, 2020. Keywords included sacituzumab govitecan (-hziy), IMMU-132, Trop-2 (trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2), and TACSTD2. Study Selection and Data Extraction: All English-language trials involving sacituzumab govitecan for mTNBC were included and discussed. Data Synthesis: Sacituzumab govitecan is an antibody-drug conjugate targeted for Trop-2 and conjugated to the topoisomerase-1 inhibitor SN-38. It was granted accelerated Food and Drug Administration approval based on a phase I/II single-arm, multicenter study (n = 108), which reported an overall response rate of 33.3% and median duration of response of 7.7 months (95% CI = 4.9-10.8 months). Common adverse reactions include nausea, neutropenia, diarrhea, fatigue, anemia, vomiting, alopecia, constipation, rash, decreased appetite, abdominal pain, and respiratory infection. A confirmatory, randomized phase III clinical trial is ongoing (NCT02574455). Relevance to Patient Care and Clinical Practice: This review covers the efficacy, safety, and clinical use of sacituzumab govitecan, a third-line drug with activity in mTNBC. Conclusion: Sacituzumab govitecan is a novel targeted treatment with promising activity in mTNBC.

Abstract Background Metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), an aggressive histological subtype, has poor prognosis. Chemotherapy remains standard of care for mTNBC, although no agent has been specifically approved for this breast cancer subtype. Instead, chemotherapies approved for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) are used for mTNBC (National Comprehensive Cancer Network Guidelines [NCCN] v1.2019). Atezolizumab in combination with nab-paclitaxel was recently approved for programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)–positive locally advanced or metastatic TNBC. Published historical data were reviewed to characterize the efficacy of NCCN-recommended (v1.2016) agents as first-line (1L) and second-line or later (2L+) treatment for patients with locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC (collectively termed mTNBC herein). Methods A systematic literature review was performed, examining clinical efficacy of therapies for mTNBC based on NCCN v1.2016 guideline recommendations. Data from 13 studies, either published retrospective mTNBC subgroup analyses based on phase III trials in MBC or phase II trials in mTNBC, were included. Results A meta-analysis of mTNBC subgroups from three phase III trials in 1L MBC reported pooled objective response rate (ORR) of 23%, median overall survival (OS) of 17.5 months, and median progression-free survival (PFS) of 5.4 months with single-agent chemotherapy. In two subgroup analyses from a phase III study and a phase II trial (n = 40 each), median duration of response (DOR) to 1L chemotherapy for mTNBC was 4.4–6.6 months; therefore, responses were not durable. A meta-analysis of seven cohorts showed the pooled ORR for 2L+ chemotherapy was 11% (95% CI, 9–14%). Median DOR to 2L+ chemotherapy in mTNBC was also limited (4.2–5.9 months) per two subgroup analyses from a phase III study. No combination chemotherapy regimens recommended by NCCN v1.2016 for treatment of MBC showed superior OS to single agents. Conclusions Chemotherapies have limited effectiveness and are associated with unfavorable toxicity profiles, highlighting a considerable unmet medical need for improved therapeutic options in mTNBC. In addition to the recently approved combination of atezolizumab and nab-paclitaxel for PD-L1–positive mTNBC, new treatments resulting in durable clinical responses, prolonged survival, and manageable safety profile would greatly benefit patients with mTNBC.

Abstract Purpose of Review Immunotherapy is emerging as an effective treatment option for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. In this review, we summarize clinical data of immunotherapy in triple-negative breast cancer and comment on future directions in the field. Recent Findings IMpassion130 was a phase III trial that demonstrated progression-free survival benefit, and potentially overall survival benefit, of first-line chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) plus anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) atezolizumab, among PD-L1-positive metastatic triple-negative breast cancers. Studies are ongoing to evaluate other combination therapies with immune checkpoint blockade in TNBC, and to evaluate efficacy in PD-L1-negative tumors and in later lines of therapy. Summary Immunotherapy is now a standard option in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer. Ongoing trials may expand the degree of clinical benefit. Further work is ongoing to identify novel predictive biomarkers, which in the future may enable a personalized approach of combination immunotherapy.
