PURPOSE: This phase III trial compared the efficacy and safety of doxorubicin and paclitaxel (AT) to 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FAC) as first-line therapy for women with metastatic breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 267 women with metastatic breast cancer were randomized to receive either AT (doxorubicin 50 mg/m2 followed 24 hours later by paclitaxel 220 mg/m2) or FAC (5-fluorouracil 500 mg/m2, doxorubicin 50 mg/m2, cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2), each administered every 3 weeks for up to eight cycles. Patients had to have measurable disease and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 2. Only one prior non–anthracycline, nontaxane-containing adjuvant chemotherapy regimen was allowed. RESULTS: Overall response rates for patients randomized to AT and FAC were 68% and 55%, respectively (P = .032). Median time to progression and overall survival were significantly longer for AT compared with FAC (time to progression 8.3 months v 6.2 months [P = .034]; overall survival 23.3 months v 18.3 months [P = .013]). Therapy was generally well-tolerated (median of eight cycles delivered in each arm). Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia was more common with AT than with FAC (89% v 65%; P < .001); however, the incidence of fever and infection was low. Grade 3 or 4 arthralgia and myalgia, peripheral neuropathy, and diarrhea were more common with AT, whereas nausea and vomiting were more common with FAC. The incidence of cardiotoxicity was low in both arms. CONCLUSION: AT conferred a significant advantage in response rate, time to progression, and overall survival compared with FAC. Treatment was well-tolerated with no unexpected toxicities.

LBA671 Background: The relative efficacy of L vs T when combined with Tax chemotherapy in the first-line setting of metastatic breast cancer (BC) is unknown. Methods: MA.31 compares Tax-based therapy, paclitaxel 80mg/m2 wkly or docetaxel 75mg/m2 3 wkly for 24 wks in combination with L or T. The L dose was 1,250 mg po daily with Tax followed by 1,500 mg daily (LTax/L). After a loading dose, the T dose was 2 mg/kg wkly or 6 mg/kg 3 wkly + Tax followed by T 6 mg/kg 3 wkly (TTax/T). Stratification was by prior neo/adjuvant HER2 therapy, prior neo/adjuvant Tax, planned Tax (paclitaxel vs docetaxel), and liver metastases. The primary endpoint is ITT progression-free survival (PFS), defined as time from randomization to objective progressive disease based on RECIST criteria or death from any cause. The protocol-specified IA was performed after observing 333 PFS events; the trial was to stop if the 2-sided p-value from the stratified log-rank test was less than 0.03. The NCIC CTG’s independent DSMC reviewed IA results and recommended disclosure because the superiority boundary was crossed. A secondary analysis utilized central laboratory-confirmed HER2 + status. Results: Between July 17 2008 and Dec 1 2011, 652 pts were accrued. Data from 636 pts (525 HER2 centrally confirmed) were included in the IA with clinical cutoff date of Nov 7 2011 and database lock of Apr 13 2012. Median follow-up was 13.6 mos, 12.9 mos for LTax/L pts and 14.0 mos for TTax/T patients. In the ITT analysis, PFS was inferior with LTax/L compared to TTax/T hazard ratio (HR) =1.33; 95% CI 1.06-1.67; p=0.01. LTax/L had median PFS 8.8 mos (95% CI 8.3-10.6) compared to TTax/T 11.4 mos (95% CI 10.8-13.7). PFS in the centrally confirmed HER2+ had HR 1.48 (95%CI 1.15-1.92; p=0.003) (LTax/L to TTax/T). No difference in overall survival was detected (LTax/L to TTax/T) HR= 1.1 (95% CI 0.75-1.61; p=0.62). More grade 3-4 diarrhea and rash was observed with LTax/L (p<0.001). Conclusions: LTax/L therapy is associated with a shorter PFS compared to TTax/T as first line therapy for HER2+ metastatic BC. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00667251. CCSRI grant: 021039.

Purpose The efficacy and safety of combining bevacizumab (7.5 and 15 mg/kg) with docetaxel as first-line therapy for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) –negative, locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer (MBC) was investigated in a three-arm, placebo-controlled, phase III trial. Patients and Methods Patients (N = 736) were randomly assigned to docetaxel 100 mg/m2 plus either placebo or bevacizumab 7.5 or 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary end points included best overall response, duration of response, time to treatment failure, overall survival, and safety. Results Combination of bevacizumab 15 mg/kg, but not 7.5 mg/kg, with docetaxel showed superior median PFS (mPFS) to placebo plus docetaxel in unstratified analysis (placebo mPFS, 8.2 months; 7.5 mg/kg mPFS, 9.0 months [hazard ratio (HR), 0.86; P = .12]; 15 mg/kg mPFS, 10.1 months [HR, 0.77; P = .006]) and stratified analysis (placebo mPFS, 8.1 months; 7.5 mg/kg mPFS, 9.0 months [HR, 0.80; P = .045]; 15 mg/kg mPFS, 10.0 months [HR, 0.67; P < .001]). Response rates in patients with measurable disease at baseline also increased with bevacizumab 15 mg/kg (46% [placebo] v 55% [7.5 mg/kg; P = .07] and 64% [15 mg/kg; P < .001]). Combination with bevacizumab had limited impact on the known toxicity profile of docetaxel. Conclusion Combination of bevacizumab with docetaxel did not significantly impact on the safety profile of docetaxel. Bevacizumab 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks significantly increased PFS when combined with docetaxel as first-line therapy for MBC compared with docetaxel plus placebo.
