e13008 Background: Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is currently treated with chemotherapy, often in combination with targeted or hormonal therapies. Current guidelines indicate the use of paclitaxel in combination with HER2-targeted therapy for HER2+ disease. Platins are often used in combination with taxanes for HER2+, and rarely for HER2(-), metastatic disease. While some studies reported no benefit from carboplatin (Carbo), others showed an additive effect in combination with a taxane (Txn). At this time, it is not clear if platins are an effective course of treatment for HER2+bone only disease. Therefore, this study investigates in a real-world clinical setting the utility of Carbo after the diagnosis of a first metastasis. Methods: Clinical information was obtained using a database with MBC patients seen at Magee Women’s Hospital from 1999-2019. After a chart review, patients were initially classified according to their molecular status and first metastatic location. Overall survival (OS) and time to next therapy (TTNT) were measured (months) and compared between those who received Txn and those who received Carbo in combination with a Txn after first metastatic diagnosis. Treatment response was investigated in either bone or visceral (lung or liver) MBC. Log ranks were used to estimate survival. Results: From 1,723 patients, 36.15% developed first metastasis to bone, 8.7% to lung, 12.63% to lymph node, 9.46% to liver, 4.17% to brain, and 23.33% to other sites. We found that HER2+ patients firstly diagnosed with visceral metastasis benefited from Carbo+Txn vs Txn only (OS 53.27 vs 38.17, P = 0.034), but not those who were HER2(-) (OS 23.20 vs 25.03, P = 0.307), or with bone metastasis, regardless of HER2 status (OS 38.57 vs 37.13, P = 0.718). However, patients with bone metastasis showed an increased TTNT with Carbo+Txn vs Txn alone (13.68 vs 8.167, P = 0.007). Finally, patients with liver metastasis who received Carbo+Txn had an increased OS (51.7 vs 20.4, P = 0.01) and TTNT (17.33 vs 8.63, P = 0.02) compared to Txn only. Looking separately at HER2 status, we found a nonsignificant trend towards Carbo+Txn efficacy in both subtypes. No differences in OS were found when looking at lung as the first metastatic location (Carbo+Txn vs Txn, 30.67 vs 27.03, P = 0.75). Conclusions: Patients whose first metastasis is to the liver, and those who are HER2+ and develop visceral metastasis, might benefit from carboplatin in combination with a taxane and HER2-targeted therapies. There is no benefit from adding carboplatin for bone metastasis. Further studies with larger datasets could validate these results.

AbstractExpression of hormone receptor (HR) for estrogens (ER) and progesterone (PR) and HER2 remains the cornerstone to define the therapeutic strategy for breast cancer patients. We aimed to compare phenotypic profiles between matched primary and metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in the ESME database, a National real-life multicenter cohort of MBC patients. Patients with results available on both primary tumour and metastatic disease within 6 months of MBC diagnosis and before any tumour progression were eligible for the main analysis. Among the 16,703 patients included in the database, 1677 (10.0%) had available biopsy results at MBC diagnosis and on matched primary tumour. The change rate of either HR or HER2 was 27.0%. Global HR status changed (from positive = either ER or PR positive, to negative = both negative; and reverse) in 14.2% of the cases (expression loss in 72.5% and gain in 27.5%). HER2 status changed in 7.8% (amplification loss in 45.2%). The discordance rate appeared similar across different biopsy sites. Metastasis to bone, HER2+ and RH+/HER2- subtypes and previous adjuvant endocrine therapy, but not relapse interval were associated with an HR discordance in multivariable analysis. Loss of HR status was significantly associated with a risk of death (HR adjusted = 1.51, p = 0.002) while gain of HR and HER2 discordance was not. In conclusion, discordance of HR and HER2 expression between primary and metastatic breast cancer cannot be neglected. In addition, HR loss is associated with worse survival. Sampling metastatic sites is essential for treatment adjustment.

Abstract: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in woman. Metastasis often occurs especially to the bones. This study was aimed to determine the characteristics of breast cancer patients with bone metastasis. This was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. Samples were 46 breast cancer patients with bone metastasis recorded at Sanglah Hospital from 2014 until 2018. Data of pathological examination archives of Oncology Surgery Division Medical Faculty of Udayana University/Sanglah General Hospital were used to obtain the clinicopathological characteristics of metastatic breast cancer patients based on age, lateralization, histopathological type, and tumor molecular subtype. The results showed that most cases of metastatic breast cancer were aged 40-49 years as many 21 patients (45.7%), minimal difference in lateralization between right breast as many 22 patients (47.8%) and left breast 23 patients (50%). The most common histopathological type was invasive carcinoma of no special type as many 34 patients (73.9%). The most common tumor subtype was the luminal B subtype as many 21 patients (45.7%). In conclusion, most patients of breast cancer with bone metastasis were 40-49 years old, invasive carcinoma of no special type, molecular subtype of luminal B, and no significant difference between lateralization to the right and left breast.Keywords: breast cancer, bone, metastasis, clinicopathological caharacteristics Abstrak: Kanker payudara merupakan jenis kanker yang paling sering dijumpai pada wanita.

Abstract Purpose: Novel molecular characterization of breast cancer with cellular markers has allowed a new classification that offers prognostic value. This study investigates the prognostic value of the Bioscore among non-metastatic breast cancer patients with respect to disease free survival (DFS).Methods: This study included 317 patients with non-metastatic surgically treated breast cancer; they were identified in the period from January 2015 to December 2018 at Clinical Oncology Department of Assiut University Hospital. Many variables were used; pathologic stage (PS), T stage (T), nodal stage (N), grade (G), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptors (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) status. Univariate & two multivariate analyses were performed to identify which of these variables are associated with disease-free survival (DFS). Results: The only significant factors in the Univariate analysis were PS3, T2, T3, T4, N3, G2, G3, ER -ve, PR -ve, and HER2 –ve. The factors which were significant in the first multivariate analysis; PS3, G3, ER –ve, and in the second one were; T2, T4, N3, G3, and ER –ve. Two sets of models were built to determine the utility of combining variables. Models incorporating G and E status had the highest C-index (0.72) for T+N + G + ER in comparison with (0.69) for (PS+ G + ER) and the lowest AIC (953.01) for T + N + G + E and (966.9) for PS + G + E. Conclusions: This study confirms the prognostic significance of bioscore in non-metastatic breast cancer in concerning DFS.

BackgroundMetastatic breast cancer (MBC) is a highly heterogeneous disease and bone is one of the most common metastatic sites. This retrospective study was conducted to investigate the clinical features, prognostic factors and benefits of surgery of breast cancer patients with initial bone metastases.MethodsFrom 2010 to 2015, 6,860 breast cancer patients diagnosed with initial bone metastasis were analyzed from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Univariate and Multivariable analysis were used to identify prognostic factors. A nomogram was performed based on the factors selected from cox regression result. Survival curves were plotted according to different subtypes, metastatic burdens and risk groups differentiated by nomogram.ResultsHormone receptor (HR) positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive patients showed the best outcome compared to other subtypes. Patients of younger age (<60 years old), white race, lower grade, lower T stage (<=T2), not combining visceral metastasis tended to have better outcome. About 37% (2,249) patients received surgery of primary tumor. Patients of all subtypes could benefit from surgery. Patients of bone-only metastases (BOM), bone and liver metastases, bone and lung metastases also showed superior survival time if surgery was performed. However, patients of bone and brain metastasis could not benefit from surgery (p = 0.05). The C-index of nomogram was 0.66. Cutoff values of nomogram point were identified as 87 and 157 points, which divided all patients into low-, intermediate- and high-risk groups. Patients of all groups showed better overall survival when receiving surgery.ConclusionOur study has provided population-based prognostic analysis in patients with initial bone metastatic breast cancer and constructed a predicting nomogram with good accuracy. The finding of potential benefit of surgery to overall survival will cast some lights on the treatment tactics of this group of patients.
