1012 Background: Advanced breast cancer (ABC) is common in older patients, resulting from the high incidence of breast cancer beyond age 70. This population is often limited in clinical trials. Endocrine therapy (ET) combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor is the standard of care in ABC overexpressing hormonal receptors (HR+). Data specific to older patients are scarce in the literature, deserving further research. Methods: PALOMAGE is an ongoing French prospective study evaluating palbociclib (PAL) + ET in real life setting in women aged ≥70 with HR+ HER2- ABC, split in 2 cohorts: ET sensitive patients with no prior systemic treatment for ABC (cohort A), and ET resistant patients and/or with prior systemic treatment for ABC (cohort B). Data collected include clinical characteristics, quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30 and ELD14) and geriatric description [G8 and Geriatric-COre DatasEt (G-CODE)]. This analysis reports on baseline characteristics and safety data for the whole population. Results: From 10/2018 to 10/2020, 400 and 407 patients were included in cohort A and B, respectively. The median age was 79 years (69-98), 15.1% with an age > 85. ECOG performance status (PS) was ≥2 in 17.9% patients, 68.3% had a G8 score ≤14 suggesting frailty, 32.1% had bone only metastasis, and 44% had visceral disease. 35.8% of patients in cohort B had no prior treatment for ABC. Safety data were available for 787 patients. The median follow-up was 6.7 months (IC95% = 6.1-7.6). At start of treatment, full dose of PAL (125 mg) was used in 76% of the patients: 62.6%, 68.7% and 71.6% of patients aged ≥ 80, those with ECOG PS ≥2 and those with a G8 score ≤14, respectively. In the safety population, 70% had ≥1 adverse event (AE), including 43.1% grade 3/4 AE, and 22.9% ≥ 1 serious AE. Most frequent AE reported were neutropenia (43.2%), anemia (17.5%), asthenia (16.3%) and thrombocytopenia (13.6%). Grade 3/4 neutropenia was observed in 32.3% of patients, with febrile neutropenia in 1.1%. Grade 3/4 AE PAL-related were reported in 40.1%, 31.4% of patients aged < 80, ≥80, respectively. Regarding PAL, 23.4% of patients had a dose reduction and 41.8% had a temporary or permanent discontinuation due to AE. Safety data were similar in both cohorts. Geriatric data and impact on safety will be presented. Conclusions: PALOMAGE is a unique large real-world cohort focusing on older patients treated with PAL in France. These preliminary data do not suggest any new safety signal, matching data derived from PALOMA trials. The occurrence of less grade3/4 AE related to PAL in patients aged 80 and beyond might reflect the 30% decrease of PAL dose upfront. Effectiveness analyses are eagerly awaited.

Background: Different studies suggest that fulvestrant 500 mg every 28 days (HD-FUL) could be an active treatment in HR+ advanced breast cancer (ABC) patients even treated with aromatase inhibitors in the adjuvant setting. The aim of this analysis is to describe the outcome of ABC patients treated with HD-FUL as first-line treatment in terms of median duration of treatment and the overall response rate in a real-world setting. Methods: For the purpose of the present analysis, we considered two data sets of HR+ ABC patients collected in Italy between 2012 and 2015 (EVA and GIM-13 AMBRA studies). Results: Eighty-one and 91 patients have been identified from the two data sets. The median age was 63 years (range 35–82) for the EVA and 57.8 years (range 35.0–82.3) for the AMBRA patients. ORRs were 23.5 and 24.3% in the whole population, 26.9% in the patients with bone only, and 21.8 and 21.4% in those with visceral metastases. The median duration of HD-FUL was 11.6 months (range 1–48) and 12.4 months (range 2.9–70.0) in the two data sets, respectively. Conclusion: These data suggest that HD-FUL should still continue to play a significant role as first-line therapy in HR+ ABC patients.

e12590 Background: Use of progression-free survival (PFS) as a clinical trial endpoint in first-line treatment of patients with advanced breast cancer is attractive, but would be enhanced by establishing a correlation between PFS and overall survival (OS). Methods: From January 2003 to December 2012, 1851 patients with advanced breast cancer at start of first-line therapy were enrolled in this real-world study. An independent cohort of patients hospitalized in 2013 was used for external validation. All data were collected from the Database of China National Cancer Cancer. Results: The correlation coefficient (Pearson’s r) between PFS and OS was 0.807 in patients only receiving endocrine therapy as first-line treatment, 0.643 in those treated with chemotherapy, and 0.642 in the whole cohort. Receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that PFS = 12 months was the optimal cutoff value for predicting patient’s survival. The median OS was 30.0 months (95% CI 27.8-32.2) in the PFS < 12 months group, and 69.0 months (95% CI 60.8-77.2) in the other group (P < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis revealed that compared with patients who did not progress at 12 months, the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for death was 2.681 (95% CI, 2.301-3.124; P < 0.0001) for patients with PFS < 12 months. Subgroup analysis based on patient’s age, molecular subtype, visceral metastasis and types of first-line treatment further confirmed that PFS < 12 months was associated with significant poor prognosis in all these subgroups. In patients with luminal type of breast cancer, the HR for death was 2.567 (95%CI 2.147-3.069; P < 0.0001) for patients with PFS < 12 months. Notably, for these patients with luminal type breast cancer who had progressed within 12 months after first-line treatment, addition of chemotherapy in the second-line therapy would surprisingly have adverse effects on patients’ survival when compared with endocrine therapy alone (HR = 1.627, 95%CI 1.016-2.604, P = 0.043). The findings were externally validated in the independent cohort. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first real-world study revealed that PFS at 12 months in first-line therapy predict OS of patients with advanced breast cancer.
