Abstract Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is a second-line standard therapy for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer. Evidence regarding post–T-DM1 treatments is currently lacking. We evaluated the effectiveness of post–T-DM1 drug therapy in patients with HER2-positive, unresectable and/or metastatic breast cancer. Methods In this multicenter, retrospective, observational study, real-world clinical data of female patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who had a history of T-DM1 treatment were consecutively collected from five sites in Japan. We investigated the effectiveness of post–T-DM1 therapy by evaluating the real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS), time to treatment failure (TTF), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and clinical benefit rate (CBR). Tumor response was assessed by investigators according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.1) guidelines. Subgroup and exploratory analyses according to background factors were also undertaken. Results Of the 205 patients who received T-DM1 treatment between 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2018, 128 were included in this study. Among the 128 patients analyzed, 105 (82%) patients received anti-HER2 therapy and 23 (18%) patients received regimens without anti-HER2 therapy. Median (95% confidence interval [CI]) rwPFS, TTF, and OS were 5.7 (4.8–6.9) months, 5.6 (4.6–6.4) months, and 22.8 (18.2–32.4) months, respectively. CBR and ORR (95% CI) were 48% (38.8–56.7) and 23% (15.1–31.4), respectively. Cox-regression analysis showed that an ECOG PS score of 0, a HER2 immunohistochemistry score of 3+, recurrent type, ≥12 month duration of T-DM1 therapy, and anti-HER2 therapy were independent variables for rwPFS. An exploratory subgroup analysis of regimens after T-DM1 showed that those with anti-HER2 therapy had a median rwPFS of 6.3 and those without anti-HER2 therapy had a median rwPFS of 4.8 months. Conclusions In the real-world setting in Japan, several post–T-DM1 regimens for patients with unresectable and/or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, including continuation of anti-HER2 therapy, showed some effectiveness; however, this effectiveness was insufficient. Novel therapeutic options are still needed for further improvement of PFS and OS in later treatment settings. Trial registration UMIN000038296; registered on 15 October 2019.

Abstract Background: Palbociclib combined with endocrine therapy has become the standard treatment for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) metastatic breast cancer. However, little is known about the effectiveness of diverse palbociclib-based regimens other than letrozole and fulvestrant in the real-world clinical setting. This study aimed to reveal the treatment patterns and clinical outcomes in Han patients in routine clinical practice.Methods: The clinical data of patients with ER+ metastatic breast cancer treated with palbociclib were collected from the China National Cancer Center database. The efficacy profile of palbociclib in this Han population was evaluated, especially in patients younger than 40 years, in those with bone-only metastasis, for various regimen combinations, and as different treatment lines. Propensity score matching was employed to match patients with or without previous everolimus treatment. Results: A total of 186 patients from 89 cities in 18 provinces in China were enrolled. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was similar among different palbociclib-combined groups (P=0.566): 10.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.8–16.1) in the exemestane plus palbociclib group, 9.7 months (95% CI 6.3–13.1) in the letrozole plus palbociclib group, 7.8 months (95% CI 5.5–10.2) in the fulvestrant plus palbociclib group, 7.2 months (95% CI 3.2–11.3) in the toremifene plus palbociclib group, and 6.1 months (95% CI 1.2–11.0) in the anastrozole plus palbociclib group. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that patients with bone-only metastasis (median PFS: 8.8 vs. 7.8 months; P=0.023) and those who received palbociclib as first-line treatment (median PFS: 14.0 months, 95% CI 11.4–16.6; P<0.001) had prolonged PFS compared with other patients. Patients pretreated with everolimus had significantly worse PFS (3.4 months, 95% CI 0.7–6.1) than those in the everolimus-naïve group (8.8 months, 95% CI 6.6–11.0, P=0.001) in the whole population. After propensity score matching, patients pretreated with everolimus had inferior PFS (4.4 months, 95% CI 0.5–8.2) compared with everolimus-naïve patients (6.1 months, 95% CI 4.7–7.5, P=0.439). Conclusions: Various palbociclib-based regimens have promising efficacy in real-world settings, even in patients with bone-only metastasis. Palbociclib resistance is more common in patients pretreated with everolimus, and in the settings of subsequent treatment compared with first-line treatment.

Abstract Purpose In MONARCH 1 (NCT02102490), single-agent abemaciclib demonstrated promising efficacy activity and tolerability in a population of heavily pretreated women with refractory HR+, HER2− metastatic breast cancer (MBC). To help interpret these results and put in clinical context, we compared overall survival (OS) and duration of therapy (DoT) between MONARCH 1 and a real-world single-agent chemotherapy cohort. Methods The real-world chemotherapy cohort was created from a Flatiron Health electronic health records-derived database based on key eligibility criteria from MONARCH 1. The chemotherapies included in the cohort were single-agent capecitabine, gemcitabine, eribulin, or vinorelbine. Results were adjusted for baseline demographics and clinical differences using Mahalanobis distance matching (primary analysis) and entropy balancing (sensitivity analysis). OS and DoT were analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression. Results A real-world single-agent chemotherapy cohort (n = 281) with eligibility criteria similar to the MONARCH 1 population (n = 132) was identified. The MONARCH 1 (n = 108) cohort was matched to the real-world chemotherapy cohort (n = 108). Median OS was 22.3 months in the abemaciclib arm versus 13.6 months in the matched real-world chemotherapy cohort with an estimated hazard ratio (HR) of 0.54. The median DoT was 4.1 months in MONARCH 1 compared to 2.9 months in the real-world chemotherapy cohort with HR of 0.76. Conclusions This study demonstrates an approach to create a real-world chemotherapy cohort suitable to serve as a comparator for trial data. These exploratory results suggest a survival advantage and place the benefit of abemaciclib monotherapy in clinical context.

The efficacy profile of palbociclib in this Han population was evaluated, especially in patients younger than 40 years, in those with bone-only metastasis, for various regimen combinations, and as subsequent systemic therapy. Propensity score matching was employed to match patients with or without previous everolimus treatment. Results: A total of 186 patients from 89 cities in 18 provinces in China were enrolled. Patients older than 40 years (P=0.189), those with metastasis other than bone metastasis (P=0.023), and those who received palbociclib as first-line treatment (P<0.001) had prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared with other patients. Median PFS was similar among different palbociclib-combined groups (P=0.566): 10.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.8–16.1) in the exemestane plus palbociclib group, 9.7 months (95% CI 6.3–13.1) in the letrozole plus palbociclib group, 7.8 months (95% CI 5.5–10.2) in the fulvestrant plus palbociclib group, 7.2 months (95% CI 3.2–11.3) in the toremifene plus palbociclib group, and 6.1 months (95% CI 1.2–11.0) in the anastrozole plus palbociclib group.

e12537 Background: Fulvestrant is a selective estrogen receptor degrader approved as monotherapy for postmenopausal women with estrogen-receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who progress following anti-estrogen therapy. The recent Phase 3 FALCON study for hormone therapy (HT) naïve women showed increased median progression-free survival (PFS) (16.6 months) in fulvestrant treated patients (pts) compared with anastrozole (13.8 months), but real-world data are lacking. This study examined the real-world effectiveness of fulvestrant monotherapy as first (L1) or second line (L2) treatment after MBC diagnosis. Methods: This was a retrospective medical record review from 10 US community oncology practices. Female pts initiated fulvestrant monotherapy as the first HT after MBC diagnosis, administered as L1 or as L2 treatment following L1 chemotherapy. Fulvestrant was initiated between 1/1/2011 and 12/31/2015. Pts were classified as HT naïve; and HT relapse status: early relapse (≤12 months of adjuvant HT completion), late relapse (>12 months). Time to first chemotherapy (TTC), PFS, and overall survival (OS) were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analyses. Results: The study included 121 pts: mean (SD) age 65.7 (11.4) years, 81.8% Caucasian, 94.2% postmenopausal/undocumented, and 92.0% HER2-/undocumented. Overall, 15.7% were de novo metastatic and 86.0% initiated fulvestrant in L1. At the start of fulvestrant, 40.5% had visceral metastasis. The study results (Table 1) suggest better outcomes (TTC, PFS, OS) in HT naïve and late relapse pts, than early relapse pts. Conclusions: First line fulvestrant in the real-world setting demonstrates comparable PFS benefit to clinical trial results and appeared successful in delaying chemotherapy initiation in HT naïve and late relapse pts. This finding supports the use of fulvestrant monotherapy as the first hormonal therapy in a metastatic setting. [Table: see text]
