e13057 Background: Eribulin is a nontaxane microtubule inhibitor approved in China for patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer previously treated with anthracyclines and taxane. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of eribulin and explore potential predictive factors for the efficacy of eribulin among Chinese women with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in real-world practice. Methods: A total of 272 consecutive MBC patients who were treated with eribulin from November 2019 to October 2020 in 9 institutions nationwide were included in this study. Eribulin was administered intravenously at a dose of 1.4 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. Efficacy outcomes included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and clinical benefit rate (CBR). Adverse events (AEs) were graded according to The National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 5.0. Results: Eribulin showed a median PFS of 3.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.3–4.3); however, the OS data were immature. The ORR was 16.2%, and the CBR was 21.7%. A total of 51.8% of patients received eribulin monotherapy, and 48.2% of patients were treated with eribulin combine with targeted therapy or other chemotherapy. The number of metastatic sites, duration of previous taxane treatment for MBC, and combination regimen with bevacizumab were significant in Cox multivariate analysis (p=0.048, p=0.039, and p=0.045, respectively) and were significantly associated with PFS of eribulin. The most common AEs with eribulin treatment were hematological toxicities, including neutropenia, leukopenia, and anemia. Conclusions: This is the first cohort of eribulin real-world data base on retrieval currently after eribulin launched in China. Eribulin was effective with a manageable toxicity profile in clinical practice. Furthermore, when prescribed in combination with other agents, eribulin did not increase the toxic effects of each agents. Eribulin monotherapy or combine with other agents is alternative for the heavily pretreated patients with MBC. [Table: see text]

Background: Eribulin is a nontaxane microtubule inhibitor approved in China for patients with advanced breast cancer who show progression after ⩾2 lines of chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety profile of eribulin and explore potential predictive factors for the efficacy of eribulin among Chinese women with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in real-world practice. Patients and Methods: A total of 272 consecutive MBC patients who were treated with eribulin between November 2019 and October 2020 in 9 institutions nationwide were included in this study. Eribulin was administered intravenously at a dose of 1.4 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. Efficacy outcomes included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and clinical benefit rate (CBR). Adverse events (AEs) were graded according to The National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 5.0. Results: Eribulin showed a median PFS of 4.1 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.6–4.6); however, the OS data were immature. The ORR was 17.6% and the CBR was 24.6%. A total of 51.8% of patients received eribulin monotherapy, while 48.2% of patients were treated with eribulin plus targeted therapy or other chemotherapy. The number of metastatic sites, duration of previous taxane treatment for MBC, and combination with bevacizumab were significant in Cox multivariate analysis ( p = 0.023, p = 0.048, and p = 0.046, respectively) and were significantly associated with PFS of eribulin. The most common AEs with eribulin treatment were hematological toxicities, including neutropenia, leukopenia, and anemia. Conclusion: Eribulin was effective with a manageable toxicity profile in clinical practice. Furthermore, when prescribed in combination with other agents, eribulin did not increase the toxic effects of each agent. Eribulin monotherapy or plus other agents is an alternative for the heavily pretreated patients with MBC.

Purpose In this study, two doses of temsirolimus (CCI-779), a novel inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin, were evaluated for efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who had been heavily pretreated. Patients and Methods Patients (n = 109) were randomly assigned to receive 75 or 250 mg of temsirolimus weekly as a 30-minute intravenous infusion. Patients were evaluated for tumor response, time to tumor progression, adverse events, and pharmacokinetics of temsirolimus. Results Temsirolimus produced an objective response rate of 9.2% (10 partial responses) in the intent-to-treat population. Median time to tumor progression was 12.0 weeks. Efficacy was similar for both dose levels but toxicity was more common with the higher dose level, especially grade 3 or 4 depression (10% of patients at the 250-mg dose level, 0% at the 75-mg dose level). The most common temsirolimus-related adverse events of all grades were mucositis (70%), maculopapular rash (51%), and nausea (43%). The most common, clinically important grade 3 or 4 adverse events were mucositis (9%), leukopenia (7%), hyperglycemia (7%), somnolence (6%), thrombocytopenia (5%), and depression (5%). Conclusion In heavily pretreated patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, 75 and 250 mg temsirolimus showed antitumor activity and 75 mg temsirolimus showed a generally tolerable safety profile.

Abstract Background: Real world data have the potential to demonstrate the applicability of the results of randomized studies in the general population. SUPER trial was conducted in order to assess the activity, the efficacy and the safety of the combination of pertuzumab, trastuzumab and chemotherapy in clinical practice.Material and methods: Patients diagnosed with HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC) and treated with pertuzumab, trastuzumab and chemotherapy were accrued at 18 italian hospitals. Data were retrospectively collected in the time frame between pertuzumab availability in clinical practice and study approval in 2016, and prospectively collected thereafter. Results: Overall 342 HER2 positive mBC were accrued. 172 patients had relapsed disease and 56.4% of them received neo/adjuvant trastuzumab. 205 patients received docetaxel. Objective response rate was 76.3% (95%CI: 71.4–80.7). Median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 24.3 months (95% CI: 20.0–28.9) and 70.2 months (95% CI: 61.4–79.0) respectively. Triple positive patients treated with endocrine therapy in addition to pertuzumab and trastuzumab maintenance had a significant longer PFS and OS than patients who did not. mPFS was 31.2 months and 13 months respectively (HR=0.47; 95% CI: 0.33–0.66; p<0.001) and mOS was 72.3 months and 56.8 months respectively (HR=0.58; 95% CI: 0.36–0.92; p=0.02). Pretreatment with trastuzumab did not hamper the outcome. In addition, maintaining the dual blockade inhibition at disease progression with the same CT partner or alternative endocrine agent leading to further benefit.Conclusions: SUPER suggests that results of first-line treatment with pertuzumab, trastuzumab and chemotherapy in unselected patients are consistent with findings from CLEOPATRA trial.Moreover, as expected from real world evidence, new insights have emerged.

PURPOSE To provide paclitaxel, an investigational drug at the inception of this study, to women with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic breast cancer and to evaluate response and toxicity in these patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two hundred sixty-seven patients with progressive disease (PD) following at least two chemotherapy regimens for metastatic breast cancer and a contraindication to further doxorubicin treatment received paclitaxel either at 175 mg/m2 intravenously (IV) over 24 hours or at 135 mg/m2 if they had prior irradiation to 30% of marrow-bearing bone or a cumulative dose of mitomycin > or = 20 mg/m2. RESULTS In a subgroup of patients (n = 172) with measurable disease, four complete responses (CRs) and 36 partial responses (PRs) occurred, for an overall response rate of 23% (95% confidence interval [CI], 17% to 30%). No differences in response rates were noted according either to the number of prior chemotherapy regimens received or to whether patients were considered refractory to doxorubicin. The dose and schedule used in this trial resulted in febrile neutropenia in 45% of patients and a hospitalization rate of 49%. CONCLUSION Paclitaxel's activity in this multiinstitutional trial in heavily pretreated patients confirms the encouraging results attained in single-institution trials. Although at this dose and schedule paclitaxel may be considered too myelosuppressive for palliative care, supportive measures such as colony-stimulating factors and antibiotics were not used prophylactically. Current research efforts are focusing on whether paclitaxel's activity against breast cancer is dose- and/or schedule-dependent, and on what role it has in patients with less advanced disease.
