e15216 Background: Mutations in PI3K pathway is a known mechanism of resistance to endocrine therapy in breast cancer. Alpelisib is an alpha-specific PI3K inhibitor. Alpelisib with Fulvestrant is approved for treatment (Tx) of PIK3CA mutated HR+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC) that progress on hormonal therapy. Despite its approval by the FDA, real world data on the use of Alpelisib for the management of MBC is lacking. This abstract reviews the safety and efficacy of Alpelisib in the management of patients with MBC. Methods: A retrospective review of the tumor registry database at a single institution was conducted to identify patients with HR+ MBC. Detailed clinical and pathologic data of PIK3CA mutated patients treated with Alpelisib were obtained. Genomic profiling was done with Foundation One. Results: Table highlights the characteristics of the four patients. All were treated with Alpelisib and Fulvestrant after PIK3CA mutation was demonstrated. 3 patients were heavily pretreated with systemic Tx including CDK 4/6 inhibitors. All patients responded to Alpelisib and Fulvestrant despite treatment history. Mucositis, rash, hyperglycemia and pancytopenia were the observed adverse events (A/E). All A/E were adequately managed except in one patient that required discontinuation of Tx. None has clinically progressed. Conclusions: Our data suggests that Alpelisib and Fulvestrant is tolerated and improves outcomes in patients with HR+ MBC. Alpelisib and Fulvestrant could be an effective therapy in patients who have also progressed on systemic chemotherapy including CDK 4/6 inhibitors. Although our sample size is small, we hope that our experience could guide clinicians in the management of patients with HR+ MBC who harbor the PIK3CA mutation and are being treated with Alpelisib.

e11561 Background: Trastuzumab and lapatinib show complementary and non-cross resistant mechanisms of anti-HER2 action. Dual HER2 blockade has been preclinically and clinically assessed with encouraging results. Trastuzumab and lapatinib combination is effective in terms of survival in patients with heavily pretreated HER2-positive mBC. We aim to report our experience with lapatinib plus trastuzumab in this setting. Methods: Descriptive retrospective study of trastuzumab plus lapatinib activity in patients with HER2-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer treated in two institutions from 01/2007 to 12/2012. The objective of this analysis is to report the response rate (RR), progression-free survival (PFS) and toxicity. Results: 23 HER2-positive mBC patients previously treated with trastuzumab received trastuzumab plus lapatinib based therapy. 15 patients (65%) received 2 or more previous lines. 17 patients (74%) had visceral disease. Chemotherapy (CT) was added to the dual HER2 blockade treatment in 13 patients (56%) whereas hormonotherapy (HT) was added in 8 patients (35%) and 2 patients (9%) received lapatinib plus trastuzumab without any other agent. Chemotherapeutic drugs most used were: capecitabine (54%) and vinorelbine (15%). RR: partial response 22% (5/23), stable disease 39% (9/23). Median of follow-up was 11 months. PFS in the overall population was 4 months. PFS in patients with CT was 5 months, while PFS in patients with HT was only 2. PFS in hormone receptor positive and negative was 3 and 5 months respectively. The most common toxicities were: diarrhea (48%), anemia (39%), asthenia (39%) and hand-and-foot syndrome (17%). Grade ≥ 3 toxicity was diarrhea (26%) and hand-and-foot syndrome (9%). The incidence of cardiotoxicity was 9% (grade 2). Conclusions: These findings suggest that dual HER2 blockade in combination with CT is feasible and active in heavily pretreated HER2-positive mBC patients. However, further investigation is warranted to demonstrate superiority over sequential blockade with trastuzumab and lapatinib in this setting.

This report describes the rationale, purpose and design of the POLARIS study. POLARIS is an ongoing noninterventional, prospective, multicenter study. Female and male patients in the USA and Canada diagnosed with hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer were enrolled in the study and treated with the cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor palbociclib when hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer was deemed to be indicated by their physician. The study will provide real-world data on palbociclib prescribing and treatment patterns in routine clinical practice, associated clinical outcomes, treatment sequencing in the advanced/metastatic setting, patient quality of life and geriatric-specific assessments. The tumor genomic landscape in relation to clinical outcomes will be explored. POLARIS will identify benefits and side effects of palbociclib across multiple lines of therapy and in discrete subsets of patients. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT03280303 ( ClinicalTrials.gov ).
