Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the real-world effectiveness and tolerability of palbociclib combined with endocrine therapy for the treatment of hormone receptor positive (HR-positive), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-negative), advanced/metastatic breast cancer that progressed on previous endocrine therapy, and to compare these results with the outcomes of the PALOMA-3 clinical trial. Methods: This study was a retrospective observational cohort study including all patients who started with palbociclib in the St. Antonius Hospital between September 1, 2016 and April 1, 2018 for the treatment of HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced/metastatic breast cancer that progressed on previous endocrine therapy. Individual patient data were collected from electronic medical records. Primary study outcomes were progression-free survival (PFS) and the number of permanent treatment discontinuations before disease progression due to adverse events (AEs). Secondary outcomes were the frequency of all (serious) AEs and the frequency of and reasons for dose reductions, -interruptions and cycle delays. Results: A total of 46 patients were studied with a median follow-up of 13.0 months. Overall, the median PFS in real-world clinical practice was 10.0 months (95% confidence interval (CI) 4.9-15.1), compared with 9.5 months in PALOMA-3 (95% CI 9.2-11.0). Two patients discontinued treatment because of AEs. Neutropenia was the most frequent grade 3-4 AE, but with no febrile neutropenia events. Most AEs were managed with palbociclib dose modifications. Regarding these modifications, more cycle delays, less dose reductions, and less dose interruptions occurred in clinical practice compared with PALOMA-3 (59 vs 36%, 22 vs 34%, and 9 vs 54%, respectively). Patients who did not meet the PALOMA-3 study eligibility criteria (n = 16) showed a lower median PFS of 5.5 months (95% CI 4.7-6.4). Conclusions: The effectiveness and tolerability of palbociclib in real-world clinical practice corresponded well with the results obtained in the PALOMA-3 clinical trial. Despite the differences in dose modifications, this study suggests that there is no efficacy-effectiveness gap in this patient population.

Background: The CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib combined with endocrine therapy (ET) has proven to prolong progression-free survival (PFS) in women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2−) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Few data are available regarding the efficacy of such a regimen outside the clinical trials. Patients and methods: This is a multicentre prospective real-world experience aimed at verifying the outcome of palbociclib plus ET in an unselected population of MBC patients. The primary aim was the clinical benefit rate (CBR); secondary aims were the median PFS, overall survival (OS) and safety. Patients received palbociclib plus letrozole 2.5 mg (cohort A) or fulvestrant 500 mg (cohort B). Results: In total, 191 patients (92 in cohort A, 99 in cohort B) were enrolled and treated, and 182 were evaluable for the analysis. Median age was 62 years (range 47–79); 54% had visceral involvement; 28% of patients had previously performed one treatment line (including chemotherapy and ET), 22.6% two lines and 15.9% three. An overall response rate of 34.6% was observed with 11 (6.0%) complete responses and 52 (28.6%) partial responses. Stable disease was achieved by 78 patients (42.9%) with an overall CBR of 59.8%. At a median follow-up of 24 months (range 6–32), median PFS was 13 months without significant differences between the cohorts. When analysed according to treatment line, PFS values were significantly prolonged when palbociclib-based therapy was administered as first-line treatment (14.0 months), to decrease progressively in second and subsequent lines (11.7 and 6.7 months, respectively). Median OS was 25 months, ranging from 28.0 months in 1st line to 18.0 and 13.0 months in 2nd and subsequent lines, respectively. Conclusions: Our data indicate that palbociclib plus ET is active and safe in HR+/HER2− MBC, also suggesting a better performance of the combinations in earlier treatment lines.

e13028 Background: CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDKi), in combination with endocrine therapy (ET), has become the standard of care in the treatment of hormone positive (HR+)/ HER2 neu negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. We evaluated clinical outcomes and toxicity in MBC patients, who have received ET with two CDKi, namely palbociclib and ribociclib. Methods: This is an ambispective, single institutional analysis of de-novo HR+ MBC patients treated with CDKi (palbociclib 125 mg and ribociclib 600 mg once a day for 21 days /28 days cycle) from November 2016- October 2020 at AIIMS, New Delhi, India. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) and the secondary endpoint was response rate and toxicity. A total of 157 female patients were recruited in this study however the response and toxicity data were available in 120 cases. All premenopausal women received ovarian suppression or ovarian ablation. Results: A total of 120 patients were included in this study with a median age of 57 years (35-75) and 93 (77.5%) cases were postmenopausal. Twenty-three (19.1%) patients had a bone-only disease, 49 (40.9%) had bone and visceral disease and 48 (40%) had only visceral disease. In this study 91 (75.9%) patients received palbociclib and 29 (24.2%) received ribociclib. The median PFS was 18 months (4-36). Twenty four (20%) patients achieved a complete response, 69 (57.5%) patients attained partial response, 18(15%) patients had stable disease and 9 (7.5%) had disease progression. Grade 3–4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anaemia were observed in 18(15%), 8 (6.7%), and 4 (3.3%) cases respectively. None of the patients developed febrile neutropenia. Cutaneous, renal, hepatic, and gastrointestinal toxicity was observed in 1,1,3,4 cases respectively. Prolonged QTc was observed in one case. Grade 3 fatigue was observed in 7 cases. Dose interruption/delay (mean dose delay of 7 days), dose modification, and drug discontinuation were observed in 24 (20%), 12 (10%), and 10 (8.3%) of cases respectively. Conclusions: This is one of the largest real-world Indian data on CDK4/6 inhibitors on upfront HR+ MBC. Side effects are less than published literature with similar efficacy. Neutropenia was the most common side effect which was managed by brief dose interruption.
