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.

Abstract Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) treatment for human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer after taxane with trastuzumab and pertuzumab is standard therapy. However, treatment strategies beyond T-DM1 are still in development with insufficient evidence of their effectiveness. Here, we aimed to evaluate real-world treatment choice and efficacy of treatments after T-DM1 for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. Methods In this multi-centre retrospective cohort study involving 17 hospitals, 325 female HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients whose post-T-DM1 treatment began between April 15, 2014 and December 31, 2018 were enrolled. The primary end point was the objective response rate (ORR) of post-T-DM1 treatments. Secondary end points included disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), time to treatment failure (TTF), and overall survival (OS). Results The median number of prior treatments of post-T-DM1 treatment was four. The types of post-T-DM1 treatments included (1) chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab (n = 102; 31.4%), (2) chemotherapy concomitant with trastuzumab (n = 78; 24.0%), (3), lapatinib with capecitabine (n = 63; 19.4%), and (4) others (n = 82; 25.2%). ORR was 22.8% [95% confidence interval (CI): 18.1–28.0], DCR = 66.6% (95% CI 60.8–72.0), median PFS = 6.1 months (95% CI 5.3–6.7), median TTF = 5.1 months (95% CI 4.4–5.6), and median OS = 23.7 months (95% CI 20.7–27.4). Conclusion The benefits of treatments after T-DM1 are limited. Further investigation of new treatment strategies beyond T-DM1 is awaited for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients.

IntroductionPyrotinib plus capecitabine has been approved in China for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Meanwhile, vinorelbine is another important chemotherapy option for MBC available in oral and intravenous forms. Thus, pyrotinib plus vinorelbine may represent a new treatment option, particularly for patients with failed capecitabine treatment. This study reported the first real-world data for pyrotinib plus vinorelbine therapy in HER2+ MBC.MethodsHER2+ MBC patients (n = 97) treated with pyrotinib plus vinorelbine in six institutions across China from May 2018 to June 2020 were enrolled. Progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), and toxicity profiles were determined.ResultsSixty-seven percent of patients received more than two lines of systematic therapy. Nearly all patients (97.9%) had received trastuzumab and 50.5% were administered lapatinib. When combined with pyrotinib, 74.2% received oral and 25.8% received intravenous vinorelbine. Median PFS (mPFS) was 7.8 (range, 4.7–10.8) months for all patients. The mPFS in patients administered pyrotinib as second-line therapy and third-or-higher-line therapy were 12.0 and 6.4 months, respectively. Patients who received pyrotinib plus oral or intravenous vinorelbine had similar mPFS (7.8 vs. 6.4 months, p = 0.871). The 23 patients with brain metastases had mPFS of 6.3 (range, 3.4–9.2) months. Lapatinib-naïve patients had significantly longer PFS than lapatinib-treated patients (10.8 months vs. 5.6 months, p = 0.020). Median OS was not achieved. The ORR for 96 patients was 34.3%. Common grade 3 and 4 adverse events were diarrhea (22.7%), neutropenia (7.2%), and leukopenia (4.1%).ConclusionsPyrotinib plus vinorelbine therapy demonstrated promising effects in HER2+ MBC with tolerable toxicity, particularly in patients with second-line treatment and without prior lapatinib treatment, as well as in patients with brain metastases. Oral vinorelbine is a useful alternative to the intravenous form when combined with pyrotinib.Clinical Trial Registration[ClinicalTrials.gov], identifier [NCT04517305].

Objectives: We present real-world outcome with the use of palbociclib in patients with HR-positive Her2-negative breast cancer treated at single center in India. Material and Methods: We conducted a medical audit of consecutive patients with HR-positive Her2-negative metastatic breast cancer, who were treated with palbociclib at our center between November 2016 and May 2020. Palbociclib was commenced at a dose of 125 mg orally once daily and a schedule of 21 days on therapy followed by 7 days off therapy was followed. Survival analysis included the Kaplan–Meier method using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software (Version 26). HRs were calculated using Cox proportional hazard regression models and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the incidence estimates. Results: A total of 67 female patients were commenced on treatment with palbociclib between November 2016 and May 2020. The median age was 55 years (range 29–78 years). A total of 51 (76%) of these patients were postmenopausal and the remaining 16 were premenopausal. Baseline metastatic disease involved one organ/site in 23 (34%), two organs/sites in 32 (48%), three or more in 12 (18%). Bony metastasis alone was seen in 17 (25%) patients, visceral alone in 30 (45%), and the remaining 20 had both bony and visceral metastases. For these 67 patients, palbociclib was commenced as 1st line systemic therapy in 24 (36%) cases. Amongst the remaining 43 cases, it was 2nd line in 21 (31%); 3rd line and beyond in 22 (33%). Median PFS was 16.1 months (95% CI: 9.6–22.8) and median OS was 20.7 months (95% CI: 14.1–27.3). Median PFS for palbociclib use in first line was 18.7 months (95% CI: 4.6–32.9) while in subsequent lines, it was 13.8 months (95% CI: 9.8–17.9; log-rank P = 0.228). Median OS in patients who received palbociclib in first line was 23.2 months (95 % CI 20.1–26.3) and for those why received it in subsequent lines was 16.3 months (95 % CI: 12.5–20.1; P = 0.069). In total population, best response on imaging was CR in 11 (16%) cases (06 in 1st line setting and 05 in subsequent line setting); PR in 33 (49%); SD in 03; and progressive disease in 20. Median PFS with bone only metastasis: 20.9 months (95 % CI: 5.9–36.0), while with visceral metastasis 16.1 months (95% CI: 9.8–22.5; P = 0.537). Median OS with bone only metastasis: 22.7 months (95% CI: 17.8–27.5), while with visceral metastasis, it was 18.5 months (95% CI: 13.6–23.4; P = 0.314). Conclusion: Palbociclib is a useful addition in the management of HR +ve Her2 –ve breast cancer patients. Its benefit is confirmed in our real-world setting, both in the first and subsequent lines of therapy and the data are on similar lines as the global real-world data on palbociclib effectiveness.

Nccn Guidelines

ObjectivesThe NCCN guidelines recommend that the addition of bevacizumab should be considered in metastatic breast cancers in some circumstances, but there are no recommendations for the similar antiangiogenic drug apatinib. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of apatinib in metastatic breast cancer patients pretreated with multiline treatment in a real-world setting.Materials and MethodsMetastatic breast cancer patients pretreated with multiline treatment who had apatinib treatment initiated from September 2015 to August 2019 at Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute were included. The primary endpoints included PFS and OS, and the secondary endpoint was treatment-related toxicity.ResultsA total of 66 patients with metastatic breast cancer received apatinib treatment after failure of multiline chemotherapy in this study. The median PFS and OS of all 66 patients were 6.0 months and 10.0 months, respectively. The clinical beneficial rate was 40.9%. All patients tolerated treatment well, and no patients died of toxicity. The common toxicities of apatinib were hand and foot syndrome, secondary hypertension and fatigue events. The number of prior chemotherapy regimens was significantly associated with DFS and OS. Capecitabine may be a better choice for combination with a longer median OS of 19 months, while apatinib combined with other drugs was 9 months, and the apatinib monotherapy was 10 months.ConclusionApatinib produced moderate efficacy in metastatic breast cancer patients pretreated with multiline treatment with no significant treatment-related adverse events. Apatinib might be a choice for women as a maintenance salvage therapy following multiline chemotherapy failure.
