ObjectiveThere is growing evidence from observational studies that lifestyle factors such as obesity, an unhealthy diet and lack of physical activity are associated with poor long-term outcome in women with breast cancer. The primary objective of the lifestyle modification part of the Simultaneous Study of Docetaxel Based Anthracycline Free Adjuvant Treatment Evaluation, as well as Life Style Intervention Strategies (SUCCESS C) Trial is to investigate the effect of an individualised lifestyle intervention programme aiming at moderate weight loss on disease-free survival in women with HER2/neu-negative breast cancer. Secondary objectives include the effect of the intervention on body weight, cardiovascular risk and quality of life.MethodsThe SUCCESS C Trial is an open-label, multicentre, randomised controlled phase III study using a 2×2 factorial design in women with newly diagnosed HER2/neu-negative intermediate-risk to high-risk breast cancer. The first randomisation served to compare disease-free survival in patients treated with two different chemotherapy regimens (3642 participants). The second randomisation served to compare disease-free survival in patients with a body mass index of 24–40 kg/m² (2292 participants) receiving either a telephone-based individualised lifestyle intervention programme for moderate weight loss or general recommendations for a healthy lifestyle for 2 years. Outcome analyses will be conducted after 5 years of follow-up.PerspectiveThis study will provide information on the efficacy and safety of a comprehensive lifestyle intervention programme on disease-free survival in a large cohort of women with breast cancer.

Background: The association between obesity and prognosis in HER2-positive early breast cancer remains unclear, with limited data available. This study aimed to determine the impact of body mass index (BMI) at baseline and weight change after 2 years on outcomes of patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer. Methods: ALTTO was a randomized phase III trial in patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer. BMI was collected at randomization and 2 years after. WHO BMI categories were used: underweight, <18.5 kg/m2; normal weight, 18.5 to <25 kg/m2; overweight, ≥25 to <30 kg/m2; and obese ≥30 kg/m2. A weight change from baseline of ≥5.0% and ≤5.0% was categorized as weight gain and weight loss. The impact of BMI at randomization and of weight change on disease-free survival (DFS), distant disease-free survival (DDFS), and overall survival (OS) were investigated with multivariate analyses, adjusting for baseline patients and tumor characteristics. Results: A total of 8,381 patients were included: 187 (2.2%), 3,797 (45.3%), 2,690 (32.1%), and 1,707 (20.4%) were underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese at baseline, respectively. Compared with normal weight, being obese at randomization was associated with a significantly worse DDFS (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.25; 95% CI, 1.04–1.50) and OS (aHR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.01–1.60), but no significant difference in DFS (aHR, 1.14; 95% CI, 0.97–1.32). Weight loss ≥5.0% at 2 years after randomization was associated with significantly poorer DFS (aHR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.05–1.71), DDFS (aHR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.07–1.98), and OS (aHR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.18–2.84). Hormone receptor and menopausal status but not anti-HER2 treatment type influenced outcomes. Toxicities were more frequent in obese patients. Conclusions: In patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer, obesity at baseline is a poor prognostic factor. Weight loss during treatment and follow-up negatively impacts clinical outcomes. Dietary counseling should be part of survivorship care programs.

Aim: Adding pertuzumab to standard trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy significantly improved invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) in the APHINITY trial. However, the magnitude of benefit was marginal in the overall population. Methods: We used GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) analysis on data from APHINITY to build summary-of-findings tables to evaluate the efficacy, safety and quality of evidence of predefined clinical outcomes for the addition of pertuzumab to trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy in patients with high-risk HER2-positive early breast cancer. Results: Pertuzumab significantly improved 3-year, event-free, absolute benefit in disease-free survival, IDFS and distant relapse-free interval (DFRI) in patients with node-positive or hormone receptor-negative disease. The analysis provides strength of evidence supporting the addition of pertuzumab in this patient population.

553 Background: In the ZO-FAST trial, postmenopausal women with early breast cancer and a bone mineral density (BMD) T-score ≥ –2 and receiving adjuvant letrozole (2.5 mg/day) were randomized to either immediate ZOL (4 mg/6 months) treatment (upfront ZOL) or to the same therapy but only when BMD T-score decreased to < –2 or fracture occurrence (delayed ZOL). After 60 months, upfront ZOL increased both BMD and disease-free survival (P < .05) relative to delayed ZOL. The present analysis assessed, from a US payer perspective, the cost effectiveness of upfront ZOL vs delayed ZOL in this population. Methods: A Markov state-transition model was developed to estimate the lifetime costs and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) for a hypothetical cohort of postmenopausal women with early breast cancer receiving letrozole with upfront or delayed ZOL. Consistent with ZO-FAST, patients were 57 years of age and breast cancer recurrence-free at baseline. Patients could progress over time to Local Recurrence, Contra-lateral Tumor, Distant Recurrence, or Death. Transition probabilities were derived from ZO-FAST, supplemented with literature. Costs and utilities were literature based. All outcomes were discounted 3% per year. Results: Compared to delayed ZOL, upfront ZOL resulted in better overall survival, disease-free survival, and QALYs, but at a higher cost (Table). In the base case, the incremental cost/QALY gained with upfront vs delayed ZOL was $7,967. In > 95% of 1,000 probabilistic sensitivity analysis runs, upfront ZOL costs less than $38,376/QALY gained. Conclusions: Upfront ZOL may increase survival and QALY and, at a cost per QALY well under the $50,000/QALY threshold, is very cost-effective in this population. [Table: see text]
