e11610 Background: Achieving a pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) has been associated with improved disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). The Residual Cancer Burden Score (RCB) method is a useful tool that predicts DFS and OS after NAC. We present the results of pts with either triple negative or HER2 positive breast cancer treated with a novel NAC. Methods: 34 pts with localized breast cancer >1 cm with HER2+ (N=19) or triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) (N=15) were treated with this novel regimen consisting first of TEC (docetaxel 75 mg/m2, epirubicin 80 mg/m2, and cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2) + PEG Filgrastim x 4 cycles. Following the 4th course, TNBC patients received 4 additional TEC cycles if they achieved CR by MRI, or were switched to a non cross-resistant regimen (vinorelbine, bevacizumab, capecitabine) if they had < CR. HER2+ pts received TEC x4 followed by docetaxel + trastuzumab x 4. RCB score was used to measure pathologic response. Pretreament PET scan was done and repeated after course 1 in order to correlate with RCB. Results: Median age was 56 (58 for Her2+ and 49 for TNBC). RCB= 0 (pCR) was achieved in 76%, while only 1 responded poorly (RCB=3). There was no significant difference in the pCR rate between Her2+ and TNBC patients (74% vs 80% respectively), but there was a difference in the rate of pCR without DCIS and invasive cancer between these two (see table, p=0.034). Pts with SUV drop > 5% after 1st TEC had 84% pCR while none with < 5% achieved pCR (p=0.001). Comparison of our results with other NAC regimens reported in the literature is summarized in the table below. Conclusions: This novel chemotherapy approach results in a high pCR rate and RCB 0-1, which have been associated with improved clinical outcomes. Early PET can predict pCR. Although sample size is modest, results are encouraging and deserve further evaluation. Clinical trial information: NCT 00830544. [Table: see text]

e12121 Background: Patients with Pathologic complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is known to have a good prognosis. However, there is a difference depending on how the complete remission is defined. Methods: We analyzed basic characteristics and outcomes of 295 patients who had pathologic complete response defined as ypT0 and ypTis after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer at Asan Medical Center in Seoul, Korea. Results: Median follow up period was 66.5 month(6~128 month). Overall survival was 94% at 5-year and 10-year. No difference was shown in preoperative age, grade, HR/HER2 status, Ki-67 level. Clinical stage III showed worst outcome(85.8%). Survival rate between ypT0N0 (98.8%) and ypTis (89.1%, p=0.00) and between ypT0/TisN residual (85.7%, p=0.00) was shown, but no statistical difference between ypTis and ypT0/Tis with residual nodes(p=0.539). Disease free survival also showed no statistical significance between age, HR/Her2 status. But patients with low Ki-67 level(0~20%)(68.2%) at diagnosis had worse DFS compared to high Ki-67 level(>20%)(87.5%)(P=0.013). No difference between intrinsic subtypes was shown. Patients with residual nodal disease had worse DFS(66.1%) than ypN0(89.1%)(p=0.00). DFS of ypT0N0 was 92.7% and ypTisN0(75.5%), ypT0/Tis with residual metastatic nodes(71.4%). There was no significant difference in type of chemotherapy regimen. Conclusions: Overall survival and disease free survival was different in ypT0N0 with ypTis and residual nodal disease. Good prognosis of pathologic complete response should be limited to cases in which the cancer has completely disappeared.

PurposeNeoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer provides critical information about tumor response; how best to leverage this for predicting recurrence-free survival (RFS) is not established. The I-SPY 1 TRIAL (Investigation of Serial Studies to Predict Your Therapeutic Response With Imaging and Molecular Analysis) was a multicenter breast cancer study integrating clinical, imaging, and genomic data to evaluate pathologic response, RFS, and their relationship and predictability based on tumor biomarkers.Patients and MethodsEligible patients had tumors ≥ 3 cm and received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. We determined associations between pathologic complete response (pCR; defined as the absence of invasive cancer in breast and nodes) and RFS, overall and within receptor subsets.ResultsIn 221 evaluable patients (median tumor size, 6.0 cm; median age, 49 years; 91% classified as poor risk on the basis of the 70-gene prognosis profile), 41% were hormone receptor (HR) negative, and 31% were human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive. For 190 patients treated without neoadjuvant trastuzumab, pCR was highest for HR-negative/HER2-positive patients (45%) and lowest for HR-positive/HER2-negative patients (9%). Achieving pCR predicted favorable RFS. For 172 patients treated without trastuzumab, the hazard ratio for RFS of pCR versus no pCR was 0.29 (95% CI, 0.07 to 0.82). pCR was more predictive of RFS by multivariate analysis when subtype was taken into account, and point estimates of hazard ratios within the HR-positive/HER2-negative (hazard ratio, 0.00; 95% CI, 0.00 to 0.93), HR-negative/HER2-negative (hazard ratio, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.04 to 0.97), and HER2-positive (hazard ratio, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.01 to 1.0) subtypes are lower. Ki67 further improved the prediction of pCR within subsets.ConclusionIn this biologically high-risk group, pCR differs by receptor subset. pCR is more highly predictive of RFS within every established receptor subset than overall, demonstrating that the extent of outcome advantage conferred by pCR is specific to tumor biology.

97 Background: Hormone receptor (HR)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive tumors generally cluster within the luminal/HER2 subset; whereas HR-negative/HER2-positive tumors reside in HER2-enriched subset. We investigated whether the efficacy of HER2-targeted therapy for HER2-positive tumors differs by HR status. Methods: Sixty-eight patients with operable breast cancer received trastuzumab plus taxane based therapy before surgery at Keio University Hospital from March 2009 to April 2012. All tumors were HER2-positive by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or fluorescence in situ hybridization. Expressions of ER, PgR, and Ki67 were performed by IHC in core needle biopsy samples at baseline. Pathological complete response (pCR) defined as no invasive residuals in breast. All patients with luminal/HER2 tumors received adjuvant endocrine therapy in addition to adjuvant trastuzumab monothereapy. Results: Sixty-eight patients with HER2-positive tumors were divided into 35 (51.5%) patients with luminal/HER2 tumors and 33(48.5%) patients with HER2-enriched tumors, respectively. There were no significant differences in tumor size, clinical nodal status, nuclear grade, and Ki67 status between the two groups. Clinical complete response rate and objective response rate were similar between the two groups. Patients with luminal/HER2 tumors were significantly younger than patients with HER2-enriched tumors (median age (range): 53 (35-78) vs. 61 (31-72), p=0.041). Compared to patients with luminal/HER2 tumors, patients with HER2-enriched tumors had significantly higher pCR rate (28.6% vs. 69.7%, p=0.002). With 24 months median follow-up, no significant differences were observed between the two groups with respect to disease-free survival. Estimated 2-year disease-free survival for luminal/HER2 and HER2-enriched was 94.3% and 97.0%, respectively (p=1.000). Conclusions: HER2-enriched breast cancer showed significantly higher pCR rate to HER2-targeted therapy compared with luminal/HER2 breast cancer. However, there was no significant difference in disease-free survival between the two groups.

Purpose To determine the long-term prognosis in each phenotypic subset of breast cancer related to residual cancer burden (RCB) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone, or with concurrent human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–targeted treatment. Methods We conducted a pathologic review to measure the continuous RCB index (wherein pathologic complete response has RCB = 0; residual disease is categorized into three predefined classes of RCB index [RCB-I, RCB-II, and RCB-III]), and yp-stage of residual disease. Patients were prospectively observed for survival. Three patient cohorts received paclitaxel (T) followed by fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (T/FAC): original development cohort (T/FAC-1), validation cohort (T/FAC-2), and independent validation cohort (T/FAC-3). Another validation cohort received FAC chemotherapy only, and a fifth cohort received concurrent trastuzumab (H) with sequential paclitaxel and fluorouracil, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FEC; H+T/FEC). Phenotypic subsets were defined by hormone receptor (HR) and HER2 status at diagnosis, classified as HR-positive/HER2-negative, HER2-positive (HR-negative/HER2-positive or HR-positive/HER2-positive), or triple receptor–negative. Relapse-free survival estimates were determined from Kaplan-Meier analysis and compared using the log-rank test. Results Five cohorts (T/FAC-1 [n = 219], T/FAC-2 [n = 262], T/FAC-3 [n = 342], FAC [n = 132], and H+T/FEC [n = 203]) had median event-free follow-up of 13.5, 9.1, 6.8, 16.4, and 7.1 years, respectively. Continuous RCB index was prognostic within each phenotypic subset, independent of other clinical-pathologic variables. RCB classes stratified prognostic risk overall, within each phenotypic subset, and within yp-stage categories. Estimates of 10-year relapse-free survival rates in the four RCB classes (pathologic complete response, RCB-I, RCB-II, and RCB-III) were 86%, 81%, 55%, and 23% for triple receptor–negative; 83%, 97%, 74%, and 52% for HR-positive/HER2-negative in the combined T/FAC cohorts; and 95%, 77%, 47%, and 21% in the H+T/FEC cohort. Conclusion RCB was prognostic for long-term survival after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in all three phenotypic subsets of breast cancer. Our institutional findings should be externally validated.
