e12610 Background: Our previous study reported a good efficacy and safety of pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab neoadjuvant treatment in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer patients. We further explored the potential biomarkers for the efficacy of pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab neoadjuvant treatment in HER2-positive breast cancer patients. Methods: To date, a total of 96 patients with early-stage breast cancer were enrolled for the neoadjuvant pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab treatment clinical trial (ChiCTR1900022293). By the method of 425 genes next-generation sequencing (NGS), the genomic characteristics of them were evaluated for the potential correlation with postoperative pathological complete response (pCR). Results: Among the cohort of 96 cases, a total of 32 patients have completed the whole therapy as well as final surgery and acquired qualified sequencing analysis report, and 18 of them achieved total pCR. The most frequently mutated driver genes were TP53 (75%), PIK3CA (44%), NBN (9%), RUNX1 (9%), FANCD2 (9%), ATRX (9%), MAP3K1 (9%) and NF1 (9%), respectively. In terms of somatic copy number alterations, the most frequent alterations are gain or amplification of ERBB2 (63%), MYC (22%), CCND1 (19%), CDK12 (16%) and FGF19 (16%), respectively. The median tumor mutation burden (TMB) of the 36 patients was 4.23 mut/Mb (0.00-29.61). Compared with pCR populations, non-pCR populations had significantly higher median TMB (5.29 vs 3.17 mut/Mb, P = 0.025). In addition, the pCR rate of patients with wild-type PIK3CA is significantly higher than that of patients with mutated PIK3CA (88.9% vs 14.3%, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Preliminary results suggested that HER2-positive breast cancer patients with higher TMB and activating mutations in PIK3CA are less likely to benefit from pyrotinib combined with trastuzumab neoadjuvant therapy, which need larger sample size to validate. *Qiyun Shi and Juncheng Xuhong contributed equally. #Co-corresponding author (Dr. Jun Jiang, [email protected]; Dr. Xiaowei Qi, [email protected]).

Background: We sought to investigate the incremental benefit of trastuzumab in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who achieved a pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Methods: The data of HER2-positive invasive breast cancer patients treated with NACT and achieving pCR were obtained from the institutional database. Patients were categorized according to trastuzumab administration. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank estimates were used to test the association between trastuzumab administration and survival. Univariate and multivariate Cox regressions were used to obtain hazard ratios. Results: Of 223 patients, 83 (37.2%) were treated with NACT without trastuzumab and 140 (62.8%) were treated with NACT plus trastuzumab for 1 year. After a median follow-up of 67 months, the trastuzumab group showed improved relapse-free survival compared with the no-trastuzumab group (95.7 vs. 87.8%, hazard ratio = 0.31, p = 0.028). No significant difference in distant disease-free survival or overall survival was observed (p = 0.250 and 0.432, respectively). Multivariate analysis identified endocrine therapy and trastuzumab administration to be associated with decreased risk of relapse (p = 0.018 and 0.030, respectively). Conclusion: The administration of trastuzumab should be considered standard treatment for HER2-positive patients who have achieved pCR after NACT alone.

Abstract Purpose To assess potential disparities in guideline-concordant care delivery among women with early stage triple-negative and HER2-positive breast cancer treated with breast conserving therapy. Methods Women ≥40 years old diagnosed with pT2N0M0 triple-negative or HER2-positive breast cancer treated with primary surgery and axillary staging between 2012 and 2017 were identified using the National Cancer Database (NCDB). The primary outcome was receipt of adjuvant systemic therapy and radiation concordant with current guidelines. Multivariable log binomial regression was used to assess the prevalence of optimal therapy use across patient and cancer characteristics. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to assess 5-year overall survival. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression was used to compare the impact of optimal therapy on 5-year mortality. Results 11,785 women were included with 7,843 receiving optimal therapy. Receipt of optimal therapy decreased with age even after adjusting for comorbidities and cancer characteristics; other sociodemographic factors were not associated with differences in receipt of optimal therapy. Among patients who did not receive adjuvant systemic therapy, most were not offered the treatment (49%) or refused (40%). Overall 5-year survival was higher among women who received optimal therapy (89% [95% CI 88.0-89.3] vs. 66% [95% CI 62.9-68.5]). Patients who received suboptimal therapy were over twice as likely to die within 5-years of their diagnosis (adjusted HR 2.44, 95% CI 2.12-2.82). Conclusion Age is the primary determinant of the likelihood of a woman to receive optimal adjuvant therapies in high-risk early stage breast cancer. Patients who did not receive optimal therapy had significantly diminished survival.
