The objective: was to evaluate the efficacy of the first line chemotherapy in patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Materials and methods. Open randomized study was performed including 122 patients with metastatic TNBC. The efficacy and safety of the first line chemotherapy of regimens АТ (n=59) – group 1, patients received doxorubicine 60 мг/м2 and paclitaxel 175 мг/м2 and ТР (n=63) – group 2, patients received paclitaxel 175 мг/м2 and carboplatin AUC 5 were evaluated. Results. The median duration of response was 9.5 months (4.5–13.25 months) in patients received AT regimen and 8.5 months (4.7–12.25 months), in TP regimen; no statistically significant differences were observed, р=0.836. The median progression free survival was 7 months (95% CI 5–26 months) in group 1 and 7.5 months (95% CI 6–35 months) in group 2, p=0.85. Both chemotherapy regimens (AT and TP) had mild or moderate toxicity profiles (grade 1 or 2 in most patients). No significant difference in gastrointestinal toxicity was observed. The incidence of grade 3–4 neutropenia was higher in patients of group 2 (TP regimen): 42.8% versus 27% (р<0.05). Conclusions. Both regimens of chemotherapy (AT and TP) are appropriate to use in the first line setting in patients with metastatic TNBC. Key words: metastatic triple negative breast cancer, chemotherapy, progression free survival, chemotherapy toxicity.

684 Background: Bevacizumab (BV) is widely used in first-line chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer in Japan, but the use of beyond bevacizumab first progression (BBP) has been controversial yet. Methods: Of patients treated with first-line BV in our retrospective cohort study (HGCSG0801), patients treated with BBP (n=22) and those without BBP ( n=19) in second-line setting were analyzed. The National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0 was used to assess adverse events. The Response Evaluation in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria version 1.0 was used to assess tumor response. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to determine PFS and OS. Log-rank test was used to compare each group in terms of PFS and OS. All statistical tests were performed using SPSS. Results: PS (0/1/2) before second line chemotherapy was 18/3/1 in BBP and 10/8/1 in NBBP, respectively. In the safety analysis, five patients in BBP showed a worsening/newer hypertension, which wasn’t a clinical problem. In the efficacy analysis, the response rate was 22.8% in BBP and 0% in NBBP. The median PFS was better in BBP (6.7 months in BBP and 2.7 months in NBBP), but there was no significant difference in median OS from first BV administration between two groups (27.3 months in BBP and 22.2 months in NBBP). Conclusions: We analyzed BBP in daily practice in Japan. Adverse events were well tolerated, but survival advantage of BBP was not suggested. About the efficacy of BBP, we are waiting the results of ongoing Phase III trials.

Background: Nowadays breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women. More than 1.5 million cases are detected yearly. Survival of patients is dependent on several factors. Metastasis and cancer recurrence of different types and in different locations have various outcome.  Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study to describe survival of patients after diagnosis of breast cancer based on receptor subtypes and sites of metastasis among Iranian population. A total number of 2051 females with breast cancer were evaluated and among these, 138 patients with recurrent BC were investigated. Results: The 1-year survival of local, bone, visceral and brain metastasis were 64.99%, 63%, 32.83%, and 21.57%, respectively. Based on sites of metastasis, bone and local metastasis showed the best survival while brain and visceral metastasis had the worst survival and prognosis. Conclusion: Our study showed that Her2 enriched positive BCs had the worst survival and triple negative receptor BC showed the best survival. This may be due to the discovery of Herceptin drugs for Her 2 enriched receptor breast cancers which ameliorates their prognosis and survival. Also, drugs related to luminal A and B which are used to improve their survival and hormonal therapy could be associated with their better prognosis in comparison to triple negative receptor subtype. Since our patients have not consumed Herceptin drugs over the last 17 years, the difference between our findings and those of other studies could be related to the release of this category of drugs.
