292 Background: Recent data suggest that patients with operable triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) may derive greater benefit from the addition of capecitabine to anthracycline-taxane regimens. Methods: We examined pathological complete response (pCR), relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with TNBC randomized to paclitaxel 80mg/m2 weekly (WP) x 12 followed by fluorouracil (500mg/m2), epirubicin (100mg/m2), cyclophosphamide (500mg/m2) every 3 weeks x 4 cycles (FEC) vs. docetaxel (75mg/m2) 3 weekly and capecitabine D1-14 (1500mg/m2 daily; DX) followed by FEC. Patients were stratified by timing of chemotherapy (preoperative vs. adjuvant). Results: 149 patients with TNBC comprising 25% of all patients randomized (N=601). Median age; 49 years (IQR; 41 to 55). The number and proportion of patients by stage were; I (n=32: 21.5%), IIA (n=72: 48.3%), IIB (n=34: 22.8%), IIIA (n=9: 6.0%) and IIIC (n=2; 1.3%). Preoperative therapy was administered to 58 patients (39%) and adjuvant to 91 (61%). There were 17 events (21%) in the DX arm and 10 events (15%) in the WP arm (P=0.36) including 11 distant recurrences in the DX arm and 9 in the WP arm (P=0.99). We observed a pCR in 11 patients (37%) and 10 (36%) in the DX and WP arms respectively (P=0.94). The odds ratio for pCR for patients with TNBC given DX vs. WP was 0.98 (95% CI; 0.33 to 2.80: P=0.94). At 50-months median follow-up the RFS and OS in patients with TNBC randomized to DX or WP was 77% (66 to 86%) and 83% (73 to 92%) (P=0.41) and 78% (67 to 87%) and 87% (77 to 95%) (P=0.16) respectively. RFS and OS for WP vs. DX for non-TNBC was 93% (87 to 95%) and 92% (88 to 96%) (p=0.91) and 96% (92 to 98%) and 97% (94 to 99%) for WP and DX respectively (P=0.39). Conclusions: In this unplanned subgroup analysis there was no difference in pCR, RFS or OS in patients with operable TNBC randomized to WP or DX however, power is limited and should be considered when interpreting these data.

TPS587 Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive tumor with poor prognosis. There are no molecular targets for TNBC, and there is an unmet need to provide new drugs to patients with TNBC. Platinum agents are known to have an anti-tumor activity in TNBC, especially in BRCA-mutated tumor. Addition of carboplatin significantly increased pathologic complete response rates with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in recent randomized studies. There are no data about adjuvant role of carboplatin for TNBC in a randomized trial. Methods: PEARLY is a randomized, multicenter, open-label, phase III trial comparing anthracyclines followed by taxane versus anthracyclines followed by taxane plus carboplatin as (neo)adjuvant therapy in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Patients with stage II or III TNBC who need adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy were included. Any prior systemic therapy for breast cancer was not allowed. Bilateral, metastatic, and inflammatory breast cancer are excluded. A total of 840 patients will be enrolled for 3 years. Patients were randomized 1:1, stratified based on the node positivity (N0 vs N+), institution, treatment setting (neoadjuvant vs. adjuvant), and BRCA mutation status (positive vs. negative). Standard arm treatment consists of doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 IV + cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks for 4 cycles followed by taxane treatment (paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 IV weekly for 12 doses or docetaxel 75mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks for 4 cycles). Experimental arm added carboplatin AUC5 IV every 3 weeks for 4 cycles during taxane treatment. The primary objective was to evaluate 5-year event free survival (EFS) rate. Secondary objectives included overall survival, distant recurrence free survival, pathologic complete response, and tolerability. The analysis is planned at 248 EFS events, which provides approximately 80% power to detect superiority of standard treatment plus carboplatin versus standard treatment using a log-rank test, assuming a hazard ratio of 0.7 at a two sided alpha of 0.05. Data is expected in 2023. Clinical trial information: NCT02441933.

PURPOSE This multicenter, randomized phase III clinical trial evaluated the efficacy of etoposide plus carboplatin (EC) versus etoposide plus cisplatin (EP) in good-risk germ cell tumor (GCT) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between October 1986 and December 1990, 270 patients with good-risk GCTs were randomized to receive four cycles of either EP or EC. The etoposide dose in all patients was 100 mg/m2 on days 1 through 5. EP patients received cisplatin at 20 mg/m2 on days 1 through 5 and therapy was recycled at 21-day intervals. For EC patients, the carboplatin dose was 500 mg/m2 on day 1 of each cycle and the EC recycling interval was 28 days. RESULTS Two hundred sixty-five patients were assessable: 131 patients treated with EC and 134 treated with EP. One hundred fifteen of 131 assessable patients (88%) treated with EC achieved a complete response (CR) versus 121 of 134 patients (90%) treated with EP (P = .32). Sixteen patients (12%) treated with EC relapsed from CR versus four patients (3%) treated with EP. Therefore, 32 patients (24%) who received carboplatin experienced an event (incomplete response [IR] or relapse) compared with 17 of 134 patients (13%) who received cisplatin (P = .02). At a median follow-up of 22.4 months, event-free and relapse-free survival were inferior for patients treated with EC (P = .02 and P = .005, respectively). No difference in overall survival was evident (P = .52). CONCLUSION Two-drug therapy with EC using this dose and schedule was inferior to therapy with EP. Cisplatin remains as the standard platinum analog in the treatment of patients with good-risk GCTs. Carboplatin should be restricted to investigational trials in GCT.

579 Background: The phase II trial WSG-ADAPT TN randomized triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients to receive 12 weeks of neoadjuvant nab-paclitaxel (nab-pac) combined with carboplatin (carbo) vs gemcitabine (gem) and showed a substantial improvement of pathological complete response (pCR: ypT0/is, ypN0) with carbo (45.9% vs 28.7%). pCR had a strong favorable impact on iDFS after 3-year follow-up. Distribution of tumor mutations in BC-associated genes and impact of BRCA mutation status on pCR and outcome are analyzed here. Methods: NGS-based mutational analysis of BRCA1/2 and 18 further (potentially) BC-associated genes was performed on DNA derived from pretreatment FFPE samples (gem: n = 158, carbo: n = 108) using a customized gene panel. Variants with a variant fraction of ≥5% were included and classified according to IARC and ENIGMA guidelines. Results: In 42 of the 266 analyzed samples, at least one deleterious BRCA1/2-variant was found (15.8%; BRCA1 n = 37, BRCA2 n = 3, BRCA1+ BRCA2 n = 2) one of which displayed an additional STK11-mutation. In the BRCA1/2-negative cohort, a mutation in one of 14 further analyzed (potential) BC-risk genes was found in 19 samples (7.1%; BARD1 n = 3, CHEK2 n = 2, CDH1 n = 2, FANCM n = 3, PALB2 n = 5, RAD50 n = 1, RAD51C n = 1, RAD51D n = 1, XRCC2 n = 1; no deleterious mutations were found in ATM, BRIP1, MRE11A, NBN). At least one deleterious variant in TP53, PIK3CA, PTEN or MAP3K1 was seen in 89.1% (n = 237; TP53 n = 233, PIK3CA n = 22 PTEN n = 15, MAP3K1 n = 1). In 22 samples (8.3%) no deleterious mutation was identified in the analyzed genes. Overall, patients with tumor BRCA mutation (carbo n = 14, gem n = 28) had 45.2% vs 34.4% pCR (OR = 1.58, 95%-CI: 0.81-3.07, p =.18) without a mutation. pCR in the small group with mutation receiving carbo (n = 14) was 64.3% vs. 34.5% in all others (OR = 3.41, 95%-CI: 1.11-10.50; p =.03); direct comparison to BRCA-positive patients receiving gem (n = 28, 35.7%, OR = 3.2, 95%-CI: 0.85-12.36, p = 0.079) did not reach statistical significance. The results suggest that the strong favorable impact of pCR on iDFS is preserved even among BRCA-positive patients (n = 42, p =.07), as well as in the BRCA-negative subgroup (p <.001). No evidence for a predictive impact of BRCA mutation on efficacy of 4xEC additional chemotherapy was seen overall or within pCR subgroups. Conclusions: Twelve weeks of neoadjuvant nab-pac/carbo is a highly effective anthracycline-free regimen that leads to an excellent pCR-rate of 64% in tumor BRCA1/2-mutated cases. BRC A1/2 mutation status could support this de-escalation strategy in early TNBC, but further prospective validation of survival impacts in larger cohorts and with longer follow up is needed. More detailed survival analyses will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT01815242.
