Abstract
Older women are under-represented in breast cancer (BC) clinical trials, and treatment guidelines are primarily based on BC studies in younger women. Studies uniformly report an increased incidence of local relapse with omission of breast radiation therapy. Review of the available literature suggests very low rates of distant relapse in women ≥70 years of age. The incremental benefit of endocrine therapy in decreasing rate of distant relapse and improving disease-free survival in older patients with low-risk BC remains unclear. Integration of molecular genomic assays in diagnosis and treatment of estrogen receptor positive BC presents an opportunity for optimizing risk-tailored adjuvant therapies in ways that may permit treatment de-escalation among older women with early-stage BC. The prevailing knowledge gap and lack of risk-specific adjuvant therapy guidelines suggests a compelling need for prospective trials to inform selection of optimal adjuvant therapy, including omission of adjuvant endocrine therapy in older women with low risk BC.

Abstract
Abstract
Since the untimely passing of Bill McGuire in 1992, breast cancer mortality rates have declined by approximately 40% despite stable incidence rates, largely due to mammographic screening and broader application of systemic adjuvant therapy in early stage disease. Continued progress is likely given recently reported clinical trials demonstrating improved survival in metastatic disease, including immune checkpoint blockade in triple negative disease, CDK4/6 inhibitors in ER-positive disease, and second-generation immunconjugates in HER2-positive disease. This remarkable progress in reducing breast cancer mortality has come with a price - broader use of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with early stage disease who might have been adequately treated and perhaps cured without chemotherapy, and the short and long term side effects that may accompany it - which raises the question - what would Bill think of our progress? How would he challenge us to do better?This lecture will focus on three distinct topics that address some potential challenges: (1) How can gene expression profiles and other diagnostic tests be used to guide the use of adjuvant systemic therapy? (2) is time for reappraisal of active surveillance to detect impending recurrence and prevent it? (3) Are there diagnostic and therapeutic strategies that can be used to identify tumors at highest risk of systemic dissemination, and novel therapeutic strategies that block dissemination?

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Tumor microenvironment of metastasis (TMEM) is a microanatomical structure composed by 3 cells in direct contact, including a tumor cell expressing the actin-regulatory protein Mammalian-enabled (Mena), a perivascular Tie2hi/Vegfhi-expressing macrophage, and an endothelial cell. TMEM are intravasation sites that function as doorways for hematogenous tumor cell dissemination and metastases (Harney et al. Cancer Discovery 2015). TMEM may be identified and enumerated by triple immunohistochemistry in mouse and human mammary carcinomas. High TMEM score is associated with increased risk of distant metastasis in early stage breast cancer, and provides complementary prognostic information to IHC4 (Rohan et al. JNCI 2014) and Oncotype DX Recurrence Score in ER+, HER2-negative breast cancer (Sparano et al. NPJ Breast Cancer, 2017). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) increases TMEM score in breast carcinoma in animal models and humans, indicating a previously unrecognized mechanism of resistance to cytotoxic therapy (Karagiannis et al. Science Trans Med 2017). Intravasation at TMEM sites may be inhibited using agents that block release of VEGF from TMEM-associated TIE2-hi, VEGF-hi macrophages (Harney et al. Mol Cancer Ther, 2017). Here we investigated whether TMEM score in post-NAC treated breast carcinoma is prognostic of distant recurrence in localized breast cancer after NAC, and thus provides a foundation for testing agents that block TMEM function in combination with NAC.
Methods: We determined TMEM score in 80 evaluable patients' post-NAC specimens with residual invasive ductal carcinomas of at least 0.5 cm. Approximately 60% of patients had ER+/HER2-negative, 28% had triple negative and 12% had HER2+ disease. Most of the patients received doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide + taxane and an anti-HER2 therapy if applicable. Tissue sections from residual tumors were stained for TMEM using triple immunohistochemistry for Mena-expressing cancer cells, CD31-expressing endothelial cells and CD68-expressing macrophages. The stained slides were scanned, and the images were analyzed by three pathologists, blinded to outcome, who independently determined the tissue areas appropriate for TMEM scoring. TMEM was scored within these areas using an automated algorithm.
Results: TMEM score was significantly higher in patients with distant recurrence (average TMEM=106), compared to patients without distant recurrence (average TMEM=71) (p<0.01, two-sided t-test). Moreover, in a Cox proportional hazards model that included TMEM score (upper tertile vs. lower 2 tertiles), age (>50 yrs. vs. <50), race (black vs non-black), tumor stage (T 1-3), estrogen receptor (ER) status (+ vs -), high TMEM score was associated with a increased risk of distant recurrence (HR=2.2, 95% CI=1.0 to 4.9, p=0.05)
Conclusion: TMEM score may provide independent prognostic information for distant recurrence in patients with residual invasive carcinoma after NAC. These results support the use of agents that block TMEM function in combination with NAC, as planned in the I-SPY2 trial.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: TMEM (Tumor Microenvironment of Metastasis) are the portal for tumor cell intravasation into the circulation and subsequent metastasis (Harney et al Cancer Discov 2015). The potent Tie2 kinase inhibitor rebastinib inhibits intravasation at TMEM sites, reduces circulating tumor cell (CTC) burden, increases angiopoietin (Ang) 1/2 levels, prevents distant metastases, and improves survival in breast cancer animal models when added to either P or E (Harney et al MCT 2017), and circumvent chemotherapy-induced pro-metastatic changes in the tumor microenvironment mediated by TMEM (Karagiannis et al STM 2017). We sought to determine the safety of rebastinib combined with antitubulin therapy (P or E) in patients with HER2- MBC. We also hypothesized that addition of rebastinib would reduce CTC burden and increase Ang levels by blocking Ang-mediated stimulation of VEGF release from TMEM-associated macrophages.
METHODS: We aimed to determine the safety and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of rebastinib (2 dose levels: 50 mg or 100 mg PO BID) in combination with P (80 mg/m2 x 12 weeks) or E (1.4 mg/m2 on day 1 & 8 q 21 days) using a standard 3+3 design (1 cycle = 21 days). Secondary objectives included evaluating the effect of the P/E + rebastinib combination on CTCs (TelomeScan) and Ang levels. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as grade 3-4 febrile neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and non-hematologic toxicity during the first 6 weeks of therapy. Eligibility included HER2- MBC, ECOG PS 0-1, CDK4/6 inhibitor progression if ER+. Patients with ≤ 2 prior non-taxane chemotherapy regimens received P+ rebastinib, whereas those with ≥ 2 chemo regimens (including a taxane) received E+ rebastinib.
RESULTS: Of 11 treated patients, 6 received rebastinib + P and 5 received rebastinib + E (2 non-evaluable due to rapid disease progression and non-compliance). Among 11 patients who received 60 treatment cycles, only 1 patient (treated with eribulin) had grade 3 events (anemia and neuropathy after week 6) potentially related to treatment. When combined with P, the RP2D of rebastinib was 100 mg PO BID, with DLT occurring in 0/6 patients. When combined with E, 0/3 evaluable patients had a DLT at 50 mg BID of rebastinib (accrual ongoing for 100mg BID). Best response included partial response/stable disease in 4(2PR/2SD) of 6 treated with P+ rebastinib, and 1(1PR) of 5 treated with E+ rebastinib. CTCs decreased during therapy (median decrease 99.7 %) and 4/8 patients converted from CTC+ to CTC-. Ang1 levels increased during therapy in 8 patients (0.2-7.0 fold), while Ang2 levels were also increased in 8 patients (0.2-1.4 fold).
CONCLUSIONS: When combined with P x 12 weeks, the RP2D of rebastinib is 100 mg PO BID. When combined with E, the RP2D of rebastinib is at least 50mg PO BID; however, the 100 mg PO BID dose level is still accruing patients. The P/E + rebastinib combinations are associated with antitumor activity and exhibit pharmacodynamic evidence indicating blockade of Tie2 (increased Ang) and TMEM function (reduced CTCs) We plan to further evaluate the P+ rebastinib combination as neoadjuvant therapy in the I-SPY program, and continue further evaluation of P/E + rebastinib combinations in MBC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: TAILORx patient-reported outcomes (PRO) quantify symptoms and health-related quality of life (HRQL) from C+E beyond E alone from the patient's perspective, thus can inform decision-making for women in the intermediate risk group for whom chemotherapy may still be considered.
Methods: TAILORx participants with OncoType DX Recurrence Scores 11-25 were randomly assigned to E or C+E. All TAILORx participants enrolled 1/2010-10/2010 (N=612) completed PROs measuring fatigue, endocrine symptoms, cognitive impairments (PCI), and fear of recurrence at baseline, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. HRQL was assessed at baseline, 12, and 36 months. Linear regression (LR) examined PRO scores among the per-protocol sample.
Results: Overall, participants reported significantly more fatigue, endocrine symptoms and PCI at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months compared to baseline and those randomized to C+E reported a greater magnitude of change baseline-3 months compared to those randomized to E alone (Table 1). Overall, by 12 months symptoms were comparable between groups. Pre-menopausal women had comparable symptoms at 24 and 36 months. Post-menopausal women randomized to C+E had greater endocrine symptoms at 24 and 36 months and greater fatigue at 6 and 24 months. Fear of recurrence was comparable between arms during treatment and follow-up. Multiple linear regression identified increased fatigue (LR slope β=0.67), endocrine symptoms (β =0.14), and PCI (β=0.11) as significant predictors of decreased HRQL across arms (p< 0.001). HRQL was comparable between E and C+E at 12- and 36-months.

Conclusions: TAILORx is the first trial to examine patient-reported fatigue, endocrine symptoms, PCI and HRQL among breast cancer patients randomized to endocrine therapy alone vs chemoendocrine therapy, thus allowing us to quantify acute and long-term symptoms uniquely attributable to chemotherapy. As expected, chemotherapy is associated with greater fatigue, endocrine symptoms and PCI acutely during treatment, and for post-menopausal women with greater long-term endocrine symptoms. Increased symptoms were associated with poorer HRQL. Long-term HRQL was comparable between groups.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Black race is associated with worse outcomes in localized hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer in population-based and in clinical trial cohorts, whether using self-identified race (Albain et al. JNCI 2009 [PMID: 19584328; Sparano et al. JNCI 2012 [PMID: 22250182) or genetically-identified race (Schneider et al. J Precision Oncol 2017 [PMID: 29333527]). This disparity persists after adjustment for treatment delivery parameters (Hershman et al. JCO 2009 [PMID:19307504]). We evaluated clinicopathologic characteristics, treatment delivered and clinical outcomes in the Trial Assigning Individualized Options for Treatment (TAILORx) by race and ethnicity (Sparano et al. NEJM 2018 [PMID: 29860917]).
Methods: The analysis included 9719 evaluable TAILORx participants. The association between clinical outcomes and race (white, black, Asian, other/unknown) and ethnicity (Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic) was examined, including invasive disease-free survival (iDFS), distant relapse-free interval (DRFI), relapse-free interval (RFI), and overall survival (OS). Proportional hazards models were fit including age (5 categories), tumor size (>2 cm vs. <=2 cm), histologic grade (high vs. medium vs. low vs. unknown), continuous recurrence score (RS), race, and ethnicity in the overall population and randomized treatment arms in the RS 11-25 cohort.
Results: The study population included 8189 (84%) whites, 693 (7%) blacks, 405 (4%) Asians, and 432 (4%) with other/unknown race. Regarding ethnicity, 7635 (79%) were non-Hispanic, 889 (9%) Hispanic, and 1195 (12%) unknown. There was no significant difference in RS distribution (p=0.22) in blacks compared with whites, or in median (17 vs. 17) or mean RS (19.1 vs. 18.2). There was likewise no difference in Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic ethnicity for RS distribution (p=0.72) or median (17 vs. 17) or mean RS (18.5 vs. 18.0). Black race (39% vs. 30%) and Hispanic ethnicity (39% vs. 30%) were both associated with younger age (</=50 years) at diagnosis. The use and type of adjuvant chemotherapy and endocrine therapy, and duration of endocrine therapy, were similar in black (vs. white) and Hispanic (vs. non-Hispanic) populations. In proportional hazards models, black race (compared with white race) was associated with worse clinical outcomes in the entire population and in those with a RS 11-25 (see table). Hispanic ethnicity was generally associated with better outcomes (compared with non-Hispanic ethnicity). For the cohort with a RS of 11-25, there was no evidence for chemotherapy benefit for any racial or ethnic group.

Conclusions: In patients eligible and selected for participation in TAILORx, black women had worse clinical outcomes despite similar 21-gene assay RS results and comparable systemic therapy. This adds to an emerging body of evidence suggesting a biologic basis or other factors contributing to racial disparities in HR-positive breast cancer that requires further evaluation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Better tools are needed to estimate local recurrence (LR) risk after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for DCIS. The DCIS score (DS) was validated as a predictor of LR in E5194 and Ontario DCIS cohort (ODC) after BCS. We combined data from E5194 and ODC adjusting for clinicopathological factors to provide refined estimates of the 10-year risk of LR after treatment by BCS alone. METHODS Data from E5194 and ODC were combined. Patients with positive margins or multifocality were excluded. Identical Cox regression models were fit for each study. Patient-specific meta-analysis was used to calculate precision-weighted estimates of 10-year LR risk by DS, age, tumor size and year of diagnosis. RESULTS The combined cohort includes 773 patients. The DS and age at diagnosis, tumor size and year of diagnosis provided independent prognostic information on the 10-year LR risk (p ≤ 0.009). Hazard ratios from E5194 and ODC cohorts were similar for the DS (2.48, 1.95 per 50 units), tumor size ≤ 1 versus > 1-2.5 cm (1.45, 1.47), age ≥ 50 versus < 50 year (0.61, 0.84) and year ≥ 2000 (0.67, 0.49). Utilization of DS combined with tumor size and age at diagnosis predicted more women with very low (≤ 8%) or higher (> 15%) 10-year LR risk after BCS alone compared to utilization of DS alone or clinicopathological factors alone. CONCLUSIONS The combined analysis provides refined estimates of 10-year LR risk after BCS for DCIS. Adding information on tumor size and age at diagnosis to the DS adjusting for year of diagnosis provides improved LR risk estimates to guide treatment decision making.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is an oncogenic driver in breast cancer (BC). In this multi-center, pre-surgical study, we evaluated the tissue effects of the AKT inhibitor MK-2206 in women with stage I-III BC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two doses of weekly oral MK2206 were administered at days - 9 and - 2 before surgery. The primary endpoint was reduction of pAktSer473 in breast tumor tissue from diagnostic biopsy to surgery. Secondary endpoints included changes in PI3K/AKT pathway tumor markers, tumor proliferation (ki-67), insulin growth factor pathway blood markers, pharmacokinetics (PK), genomics, and MK-2206 tolerability. Paired t tests were used to compare biomarker changes in pre- and post-MK-2206, and two-sample t tests to compare with prospectively accrued untreated controls. RESULTS Despite dose reductions, the trial was discontinued after 12 patients due to grade III rash, mucositis, and pruritus. While there was a trend to reduction in pAKT after MK-2206 (p = 0.06), there was no significant change compared to controls (n = 5, p = 0.65). After MK-2206, no significant changes in ki-67, pS6, PTEN, or stathmin were observed. There was no significant association between dose level and PK (p = 0.11). Compared to controls, MK-2206 significantly increased serum glucose (p = 0.02), insulin (p < 0.01), C-peptide (p < 0.01), and a trend in IGFBP-3 (p = 0.06). CONCLUSION While a trend to pAKT reduction after MK-2206 was observed, there was no significant change compared to controls. However, the accrued population was limited, due to toxicity being greater than expected. Pre-surgical trials can identify in vivo activity in the early drug development, but side effects must be considered in this healthy population.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Metastasis is the primary cause of death in breast cancer, yet no specific therapies are available that inhibit the metastatic process. TMEM (Tumor Microenvironment of Metastasis) are microanatomic structures formed by a Mena-expressing tumor cell, Tie2-expressing macrophage, and endothelial cell in direct content, which serve as the primary portal for tumor cell intravasation into the circulation and subsequent metastasis. High TMEM score in the primary tumor is associated with higher risk of recurrence in ER+, HER2- early breast cancer. Paclitaxel induces the formation of TMEM in the primary tumors of patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and in the primary tumor and distant metastases in the PyMT/PDX models. Tumor cell intravasation is mediated by release of VEGF that promotes focal vascular leakiness specifically at TMEM sites, and is derived from TMEM-associated Tie2HI/VEGFHI macrophages that release VEGF upon binding of the Tie2 receptor to angiopoietin2 (ANG2), which is elaborated by TMEM-associated endothelial cells. Moreover, ANG2-stimulated release of IL-10 by tumor-associated macrophages suppresses T cell proliferation, increases the ratio of CD4+T cells to CD8+ T cells, and promotes the expansion of CD4+CD25highFOXP3+ cells. The Tie2 inhibitor rebastinib inhibits intravasation at TMEM sites, reduces circulating tumor cell (CTC) burden, prevents distant metastases, and improves survival in breast cancer animal models when added to either paclitaxel or eribulin. We therefore hypothesize that the addition of a potent Tie2 inhibitor (rebastinib) to antitubulin therapy in patients with HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) will prevent hematogenous dissemination and distant metastasis by inhibition of TMEM function, reduction in CTC burden, and inhibition of immune-system suppression resulting in improvement in breast clinical outcomes
Methods: Primary objective of this phase Ib study (NCT02824575) is to evaluate safety and tolerability of rebastinib in two dose levels (DL) (50mg or 100mg po BID) combined with paclitaxel IV 80mg/m2 (day 1, 8 and 15) or eribulin IV 1.4mg/m2 (day1 and 8) for four 21-day cycles.
Key eligibility includes histologically confirmed HER2 negative MBC. ≤ 2 non-taxane chemotherapy regimens are allowed for rebastinib plus paclitaxel arm, while ≥ 2 chemotherapy regimens (including a taxane) are required for eribulin plus rebastinib arm. ≥ 2 endocrine regimens, including an approved CDK4/6 inhibitor, is required for ER+ disease. Patients require ECOG PS 0 or 1 and normal organ and marrow function. Exclusion criteria include significant ocular disease, significant history of cardiac disease or concomitant use drugs that prolong QTc interval.
Pharmacodynamic biomarkers to be measured during cycle 1-3 include CTCs, ANG 1/2 levels and Tie-2 expressing monocytes. Tissue biopsy after two treatment cycles in 6 patients who have accessible tumors will be performed to evaluate TMEM score and function. With two DL of rebastinib, and 3-6 patients at each DL, it is anticipated that 6-12 patients will be required.
This trial has enrolled three patients assigned paclitaxel arm (DL1) and one patient in eribulin arm(DL1).

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Treatment for mTNBC is limited, and significant challenges persist in treating this disease, as outcomes remain largely dependent on chemotherapy without any effective targeted treatment. Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) is a highly selective, humanized monoclonal antibody against PD-1, blocking the negative immune regulatory signaling of the PD-1 receptor that is usually expressed by T-cells. Recent data showed that some patients with mTNBC may benefit from immune-based therapies (PD-1 or PD-L1 antibodies). Cumulative evidence suggest that stromal tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs) have a prognostic and predictive role in response to treatment in subsets of TNBC, particularly in response to carboplatin use. Preclinical data revealed that blocking PD-1/PD-L1 pathway in combination with platinum containing cytotoxic therapy improved response rates and survival. High levels of sTILs and an increased PD-L1 expression make mTNBC a candidate for PD-1–targeted therapy. As studies showed that the subset of TNBC with better response rates to carboplatin are heavily infiltrated with sTILs, pembrolizumab, becomes a very attractive drug to be tested in combination with carboplatin, with the goal of improving outcomes in mTNBC. A Phase II multicenter, randomized, trial has been initiated to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining pembrolizumab with carboplatin and gemcitabine in patients with mTNBC.
Methods: A safety run-in will assess the safety and tolerability of combining pembrolizumab with carboplatin and gemcitabine in patients with mTNBC. Following the completion of the safety run-in, patients will be randomized 2:1 to receive pembrolizumab (200 mg IV) on day 1 along with carboplatin (AUC 2, day 1 and day 8, IV) plus gemcitabine (800 mg/m2, day 1 and day 8, IV) of a 21-day cycle, or carboplatin plus gemcitabine (same aforementioned dose) alone. Patients will have histologically documented unresectable mTNBC. Prior systemic therapy for mTNBC, for up to 2 lines is allowed, and patients will have ECOG PS 0–2 and measurable disease (RECIST v1.1). Prior carboplatin/gemcitabine or cisplatin therapy is allowed in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting, as long as it occurred more than 12 months from the beginning of their enrollment. Subjects whose tumors progressed while on treatment with carboplatin or cisplatin are excluded. Known CNS disease (except asymptomatic treated metastases), autoimmune disease or prior immune checkpoint blockade therapy is an exclusion to enrollment on this trial. Primary endpoint is assessing the objective response rate according to RECIST v1.1 . Other endpoints include clinical benefit rate (CBR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR), and safety. Tumor biopsies will be obtained at baseline and just prior to initiation of cycle 3 to assess biomarkers of response and immune escape. PD-L1 expression will be evaluated in exploratory analysis with a planned assessment of response based on PD-L1 status. This trial will enroll 6-12 patients in the safety run-in portion, and 75 patients in the randomized part, at 7 sites in the United States.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: MetaSite Breast™ is a validated assay to predict risk of distant breast cancer metastasis in patients with HR+/HER2- ESBC. The assay measures the number of MetaSites defined as tumor microanatomic structures composed of MENA protein expressing tumor cells in contact with CD31+ endothelial cells and CD68+ macrophages. Previous studies have demonstrated that an increased number of these microanatomic structures is associated with distant metastasis (DM) in HR+/HER2- ESBC independent of clinicopathologic features. Analytical validation of MetaSite Breast™ demonstrated precision of 97-99% (repeat image analysis of the same slide) and performance of 91-96% (staining and image analysis of serial tumor sections). We sought to further understand the importance of the MetaSite in predicting distant breast cancer metastasis utilizing a fully automated prognostic assay in an independent large patient cohort.
Methods: We conducted a nested case-control study within a cohort of 3,760 patients diagnosed between 1980 and 2000 with invasive breast cancer from the Kaiser Permanente Northwest health care system. Cases (n=259) were women who developed a subsequent distant metastasis; controls, selected using incidence density sampling, were matched closely to cases (1:1) on age at and calendar year of primary diagnosis. Of the 481 patient tumor samples evaluated in this study, 57% were HR+/HER2-, 19% were triple negative (TN), and 15% were HER2+ disease. Multivariate models were adjusted for clinical factors including: lymph node status, tumor size, tumor grade, and HRT; as well as matching variables: age and year of diagnosis. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using logistic regression.
Results: In the HR+/HER2- group, MetaSite Score (MS) ranged from 0-357 and the mean was 44.6. MS was a significant predictor of DM (P=0.039) in patients with HR+/HER2- disease. Cut-points based on tertiles of MS in all 259 controls defined intermediate (13-41) and high (>41) risk groups that were significantly associated with risk of DM versus the low risk group (OR=2.24; 95%CI=1.23-4.13, P=0.009) and (OR=2.94; 95%CI=1.62-5.41, P=0.0005), respectively. Univariate estimates of absolute risk of DM with cutoffs based on 90% sensitivity and specificity were 9.4% for the low risk group (MS<7), 14.1% for the intermediate (MS=7-91), and 23.4% for the high (MS>91). When adjusted for clinical factors, estimates of absolute risk of DM were 6.6%, 14.1%, and 33.0% for the low, intermediate, and high risk groups, respectively. A binary cut-point for the high risk group was determined (MS>14) and was significant with a 2-fold higher risk of DM versus the low risk group and adjusted for clinical covariates (P=0.036). MS was not positively associated with DM in TN or HER2+ disease.
Conclusions: MetaSite Breast™ significantly predicted the risk of distant breast cancer metastasis in ESBC patients with HR+/HER2-disease, independent of classical clinicopathologic features.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Metastasis is the primary cause of death in ESBC. We have shown in mouse models that a subpopulation of tumor cells expressing invasive Mena isoforms stream, form microanatomic structures (“TMEM”) with endothelial cells and macrophages, intravasate into the circulation at TMEM sites, and metastasize (Harney et al. Cancer Discovery, 2015). Further, TMEM sites (“MetaSites”) are identifiable in human ESBC, and “MetaSite score” [MS] is positively associated with distant recurrence in HR+/HER2- ESBC independent of clinicopathologic features, including IHC4 (Rohan et al. JNCI 2014). Here we determined the association between MS and recurrence in an independent ESBC cohort (E2197; NCT00003519).
Methods: We evaluated primary tumors from 600 patients (median followup 14.8 years) with ESBC (weighted % = 50% T1, 54% N0, 46% N1) treated with surgery and 4 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC or AT) and endocrine therapy. Grade, ER, PR, and HER2, and Oncotype DX Recurrence Score (RS) were evaluated in central labs (Badve et al. JCO 2008), and MS was determined in a CLIA-certified lab using an analytically validated, fully automated digital pathology/image analysis method that identifies Mena expressing tumor cells in direct contact with CD68+ macrophages and CD31+ endothelial cells (ie, “TMEMs”, or “MetaSites”). The objectives were to determine the association between MS and distant relapse free interval (DRFI) and relapse free interval (RFI). Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to estimate time-to-event distributions. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess hazard ratio associated with MS while controlling for covariates, and allowing time-varying association with MS. Both Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression methods addressed stratified sampling by incorporating proper weights. All analyses were performed in R 3.2.3.
Results: MS ranged from 0-199; the weighted mean MS was lower in HR+/HER2- than TN (16.1 vs. 23.8, p=0.001) and HER2+ disease (26.2, p=0.003). MS was not associated with T or N status, and correlated poorly with RS (r=0.29). Proportional hazards models revealed a significant positive association between continuous MS and DRFI (p=0.001) and RFI (p=0.00006) in HR+/HER2- disease in years 0-5 (and by MS tertiles for DRFI [p=0.04] and RFI [p=0.01]), but not after year 5 or in TN or HER2+ disease. Proportional hazards models including clinical covariates (N0 vs. N1; T1 vs. T2; high vs. int. vs. low grade) also revealed significant positive associations for continuous MS with RFI (p=0.04), and borderline association with DRFI (p=0.08). Similar findings for MS (RFI p=0.05;DRFI p=0.10) were noted in a joint model including categorical RS (<18,18-30, >30).
Conclusions: MS, a novel metastasis biomarker reflecting interaction between streaming and metastasizing tumor cells and microenvironment, provides prognostic information complementary to classical clinicopathologic features and RS in HR+/HER2- ESBC. Further evaluation is warranted in order to identify patients at highest risk of recurrence within 5 years most likely to benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy or novel therapies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer cell intravasation and dissemination occurs specifically at microanatomical structures that we call tumor-microenvironment of metastasis (TMEM), representing direct physical contact between a tumor cell expressing the actin-regulatory protein Mammalian-enabled (Mena), a perivascular Tie2hi/Vegfhi-expressing macrophage, and an endothelial cell (Harney et al. Cancer Discovery 2015). TMEM sites have been identified in mouse and human mammary carcinomas, and both TMEM density (Rohan et al. JNCI 2014) and invasive Mena isoform expression (Agarwal et al. Breast Cancer Res, 2012; Forse et al. BMC Cancer, 2015]) correlates with metastasis in early stage breast cancer. Since cytotoxic agents such as PTX induce influx of bone marrow-derived progenitors that differentiate into Tie2hi/VEGFhi macrophages in the primary tumor, we hypothesized that PTX may potentiate tumor cell invasion and metastasis by inducing the formation of TMEM sites and/or function.
Methods and Results in humans: We analyzed the effect of chemotherapy on TMEM and invasive Mena isoforms in 10 patients with localized breast cancer who had residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC: weekly paclitaxel followed by dose-dense doxorubicin-cyclophosphamide [AC]), of whom 7 had more than 2-fold increase in TMEM density in residual disease compared with pretreatment. In a separate cohort of 5 patients, NAC produced an acute increase of up to 150-fold in invasive Mena isoforms after 1-2 doses of NAC.
Methods and Results in mice: After our preliminary data in humans, we evaluated effects of PTX in 4 different models, including 2 mouse models (PyMT-spontaneous & transplantation) and 2 patient-derived xenograft (PDX) triple negative models (HT17, HT33). Although PTX delayed primary tumor growth, tumors in PTX-treated mice had significantly more TMEM sites, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and metastatic foci when compared to vehicle-treated animals. Using intravital imaging of MMTV-PyMT-Dendra2/Cfms-CFP mice, PTX induced influx of macrophages into primary tumors and intravasation of cancer cells at TMEM sites. Furthermore, PTX treatment significantly increased expression of Mena at the gene and protein levels, including invasive Mena isoforms. Deletion of the Mena gene completely abolished dissemination and metastasis in all cases, including those treated with PTX.
Conclusions: We show in mammary carcinoma mouse models and PDX models that although PTX delays tumor growth, it induces invasive Mena isoform expression and significantly increases the density of TMEM sites that are responsible for cancer cell intravasation, dissemination and metastasis. Thus, our data indicate that PTX paradoxically induces dissemination of breast cancer cells by promoting invasive Mena isoforms and TMEM-mediated cancer cell intravasation, suggesting that blockade of TMEM assembly and/or function could enhance the effectiveness of PTX and possibly other cytotoxic agents commonly used to treat early and advanced stage breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: PARP, an essential nuclear enzyme, is involved in the recognition of DNA damage and facilitation of DNA base-excision repair (BER). PARP inhibition sensitizes tumor cells to cytotoxic agents which induce DNA damage, including C. Metronomic dosing of C may optimize potential for synergy with PARP inhibitors, and also inhibits angiogenesis (Kerbel et al, Nat Rev Cancer, 4:423-36, 2004) and may enhance anti-tumor immunity (Ghiringhelli et al. Cancer Immunol Immunother 56:641–648, 2007) V is an oral small molecule inhibitor of PARP which potentiates the antineoplastic activity of DNA damaging agents such as C in MX-1 breast xenograft model (Donawho et al Clin Cancer Res 13:2728-37, 2007). We performed a phase I trial of metronomic dose oral C plus V in patients with MBC.
METHODS: The primary objective was to determine the safety and identify the recommended phase II dose (RPTD) of the combination of low-dose oral C once daily in combination with V (100, 200, 300 mg) administered BID for 21 days using a standard 3+3 design. Eligibility included HER2/neu negative MBC, ECOG PS 0-1, and at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen for MBC. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as any Grade 3 non-hematological toxicity or Grade 4 thrombocytopenia/neutropenia occurring during cycle 1. After the RPTD of V was shown to be 200 mg BID with C 50 mg daily, the trial was amended to increase the C dose to 75, 100 and then 125 mg daily until hematologic toxicity was dose-limiting.
RESULTS: 31 patients were enrolled, 19 treated with 50 mg of C and 12 treated at higher doses (75-125 mg), with V doses ranging from 50 mg-300 mg BID (see table);5 patients with not evaluable due to rapid disease progression (N=2), non-compliance (N=2), or tumor pain that was not a DLT (N=1). Median age was 52 years (28-72 years), 14 (45 %) had triple negative disease, all had at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen for metastasis (median 2, range 1-8), and, 7 had germline BRCA mutations, (3 BRCA1 and 4 BRCA2). When combined with 50 mg C daily, RPTD of V was 200 mg PO BID, with nausea being DLT at 300 mg BID. DLT was not observed in any of the 9 additional patients. The median number of cycles given was 3 (range 1-14). Clinical benefit (response or stable disease for at least 24 weeks) occurred in 3/7 (43%), 1/3 (33%) and 1/16(6%) for BRCA mutated, BRCA negative and BRCA unknown, respectively. Median progression-free survival was 4.3 months (1.2-10.9 months) for BRCA mutated patients and 2 months (0.7-10 months) for non-mutated.
CONCLUSIONS: The combination of oral continuous dosing of V (200 mg PO BID) with metronomic C (50, 75, 100 and 125 mg daily) is well tolerated and shows antitumor activity in patients with BRCA mutation associated MBC. The RPTD is C 125 mg daily plus V 200 mg BID, although further escalation of the C dose may be feasible since DLT was not seen at this dose level.

Abstract
Abstract
Resistance to standard taxane-based chemotherapy is common in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Mutations and gene amplifications in the MAPK pathway that upregulate MAPK signaling are present in many TNBC tumors. Upregulation of the MAPK signaling pathway can result in degradation of the pro-apoptotic protein BIM and upregulation of anti-apoptotic proteins, including BCL-2, BCL-XL, and MCL-1, thus promoting cell survival and desensitizing tumor cells to the pro-apoptotic effects of taxane chemotherapy. Updated data on clinical safety and efficacy are presented along with biomarker data evaluating the effects of treatment on induction of apoptosis.The COLET study (ClinicalTrials.gov ID, NCT02322814; EudraCT number, 2014-002230-32) consisted of a safety run-in (n∼12) followed by a blinded 1:1 randomized expansion stage (n∼90) to C + P or placebo (PBO) + P. The safety stage is complete and the randomized stage is enrolling pts. Two additional cohorts investigating the effect of adding atezolizumab will be recruiting and are out of scope of this submission. Pts in cohort I were treated with P 80 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 and C/PBO 60 mg/day on days 3–23 of each 28-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Gene expression and apoptotic index were measured by RNA-Seq and TUNEL staining, respectively, to assess the biologic activity of C + P.Sixteen women (median age, 55.5 years) were enrolled in the safety run-in stage. At data snapshot (April 22, 2016), all 16 pts had received ≥1 dose of study treatment. Median time on treatment was 116 days (range, 7-336) for C and 84 days (range, 0-351) for P. Fifteen (94%) pts had ≥1 adverse event (AE); 5 (31%) pts had grade 1/2 AEs and 10 (63%) pts had grade 3 AEs (Table). No pts experienced grade 4–5 AEs. Among the 16 safety run-in patients, responses to date include partial response (PR; n = 8 [50.0%]), stable disease (SD, n = 4 [25.0%]), and progressive disease (n = 2 [12.5%]), as well as 2 pts with no post-baseline tumor assessment. Six pts maintained a PR at ∼20 weeks and three maintained a PR at ≥40 weeks. To date, matched pre- and on-treatment biopsies were evaluable for 2 pts, 1 with a PR and 1 with SD. In the patient who attained a PR, increased expression of pro-apoptosis genes, including BIM, was observed; but this was not seen in the patient experiencing SD. The PR patient also had an increase in apoptotic index. Updated biomarker data will be reported.This is the first study to evaluate C + P in TNBC. The safety profile of C + P is consistent with that of known safety profiles. Efficacy and safety will be further evaluated in the ongoing randomized stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We undertook the present analysis to examine the shifting influence of prognostic factors in HIV-positive patients diagnosed with aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) over the last two decades. PATIENTS AND METHODS We carried out a pooled analysis from an existing database of patients with AIDS-related lymphoma. Individual patient data had been obtained prior from prospective phase II or III clinical trials carried out between 1990 until 2010 in North America and Europe that studied chemo(immuno)therapy in HIV-positive patients diagnosed with AIDS-related lymphomas. Studies had been identified by a systematic review. We analyzed patient-level data for 1546 patients with AIDS-related lymphomas using logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard models to identify the association of patient-, lymphoma-, and HIV-specific variables with the outcomes complete response (CR), progression-free survival, and overall survival (OS) in different eras: pre-cART (1989-1995), early cART (1996-2000), recent cART (2001-2004), and contemporary cART era (2005-2010). RESULTS Outcomes for patients with AIDS-related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma improved significantly over time, irrespective of baseline CD4 count or age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (IPI) risk category. Two-year OS was best in the contemporary era: 67% and 75% compared with 24% and 37% in the pre-cART era (P < 0.001). While the age-adjusted IPI was a significant predictor of outcome in all time periods, the influence of other factors waxed and waned. Individual HIV-related factors such as low CD4 counts (<50/mm(3)) and prior history of AIDS were no longer associated with poor outcomes in the contemporary era. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate a significant improvement of CR rate and survival for all patients with AIDS-related lymphomas. Effective HIV-directed therapies reduce the impact of HIV-related prognostic factors on outcomes and allow curative antilymphoma therapy for the majority of patients with aggressive NHL.

Abstract
Abstract
The past year has brought several major changes in the management of early stage breast cancer. First was evidence from two randomized phase III trials, including ATLAS (Lancet. 2013: 9; 381) and aTTom (ASCO 2013; abstract 5), that extending the duration of adjuvant tamoxifen therapy from 5 to 10 years reduced the risk of breast cancer recurrence, breast cancer mortality, and overall mortality. A pooled analysis of the 17,477 patients enrolled both trials showed that for patients who took tamoxifen for 10 years, although there was no benefit in years 5-9 during tamoxifen therapy, there was a 25% reduction in breast cancer mortality beginning at year 10 (hazard ratio [HR] 0.75, 95% CI 0.65-0.86; p = 0.00004) and a 16% reduction overall mortality (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.77-0.93; p = 0.0007). Although there was an increase in the risk of endometrial cancer in ATLAS (2.20, p<0.0001) and aTTom (1.83, p = 0.02), there were far fewer excess endometrial cancers and deaths than breast cancer recurrences and deaths that were prevented. In other news regarding adjuvant endocrine therapy, an analysis of the BIG1-98 trial comparing letrozole with tamoxifen demonstrated that letrozole improved was superior in lobular carcinoma and luminal B ductal carcinoma, indicating that the benefits of letrozole over tamoxifen overall were driven by the benefits seen in these groups (SABCS 2012, abstract S1-1). Regarding other forms of systemic therapy, the GeparSixto trial showed that the additional of carboplatin significantly improved the pathologic complete response rate in patients with triple negative breast cancer when added to an anthracyclines-taxane neoadjuvant regimen (ASCO 2013, abstract 1004), the S0221 trial showed that standard dose biweekly paclitaxel was associated with more neurotoxicity when compared with adjuvant weekly paclitaxel without a reduction in the risk of recurrence (ASCO 2013, CRA1008), and the BEATRICE trial showed no benefit from adding bevacizumab to adjuvant chemotherapy (Lancet Oncol 2013;14:933). Regarding surgical therapy, two studies evaluated the role of sentinel node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, including the SENTINA trial (Lancet Oncol 2013; 14: 609) and the Z1071 trial (SABCS 2012, abstract S2-1), revealing lower sentinel node detection rates (80% and 92%, respectively) and higher false negative rates (14.2% and 12.6%, respectively) than typically observed in patients not previously treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Another trial (AMAROS 2013, LBA 1001) showed similar locoregional control rates when axillary radiation was compared with axillary dissection following a positive positive sentinel node biopsy, with less lymphedema associated with axillary dissection. Finally, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted accelerated approval for the use of pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel for neoadjuvant therapy based upon the results of the NeoSPHERE trial (Lancet Oncol 2012;13:25), the first drug to receive approval under the FDA's new guidance accepting pathologic complete response rate as an endpoint supporting accelerated approval, with full approval conditional on improved event free survival being demonstrated with additional followup in the same trial, or in other trials (N Eng J Med 2012:366;2438).

Abstract
Abstract
Population-based studies have suggested improved survival for patients diagnosed with MBC in recent years, presumably due to the availability of new and more effective therapies (Chia et al. Cancer 2007; Dawood et al. JCO, 2008). The objective of this analysis was to determine if survival improved for patients who participated in Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) adjuvant trials and later developed MBC.
Methods: Adjuvant trials coordinated by the ECOG that accrued patients between 1978 and 2002 were reviewed (n=12), which included followup until 2010. Cytotoxic and biologic agents approved for MBC during this time included paclitaxel (1994), capecitabine and trastuzumab (1998), docetaxel and gemcitabine (2004), lapatinib and ixabepilone (2007), and bevacizumab (2008). Survival following distant recurrence was estimated for 4 time periods ranging from 6–10 years, and adjusted for baseline covariates in a Cox proportional hazards model. Because distant relapse free interval (DRFI) was the covariate most strongly associated with survival after recurrence, and the potential for “gap time” bias this could introduce, logrank tests for other covariates and estimates of effects were computed stratified on DRFI (0-3, >3-6, > 6 years). HER2 status was not routinely available and thus not included.
Results: The 12 trials included 14,752 patients (93% received adjuvant chemotherapy); 3711 (25.2%) developed distant recurrence. Median survival after distant recurrence was 20 months; the estimated 5 and 10-year survival rates were 16.3% and 6.1%, respectively. Median survival by time period is shown in the table, stratified by DRFI. Median survival did not significantly change over time by DRFI (≤3 years, p=0.15; >3 yr, p=0.57). In a Cox proportional hazards model, factors associated with inferior survival after adjusting for other covariates included shorter DRFI (<3 years vs. 3–6 years — hazard ratio [HR] 1.60, p<0.001, and > 6 vs. < 3 years — HR 2.23, p <0.001), ER-negative disease (HR 1.30, p<0.001), PR-negative disease (HR 1.36, P<0.0001), number of positive axillary nodes at diagnosis (1-3 vs. 0 nodes — HR 1.28, 4–9 vs. 0 nodes — HR 1.51, > 9 vs. 0 nodes — HR 1.51, p<0.0001), and black vs. white race (HR 1.29, p=0.0003), but not age at recurrence (p=0.07). When the year of recurrence was added to the Cox proportional hazards model using the intervals shown in the table below, it was not significantly associated with survival. Results were similar when 1978–2010 was assessed by 5–6 year intervals.
Conclusions: In contrast to reports from population-based studies, we do not observe any improvement in survival over time for patients who develop distant recurrence after adjuvant chemotherapy. There remains a critical unmet need for new therapies for MBC, especially for those who recur after adjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract
270 Background: Neuropathy is a common and potentially enduring and disabling complication of adjuvant taxane therapy. Recent studies have identified candidate host single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with taxane-induced neuropathy (Schneider et al. ASCO 2011, abstr. 1000). We therefore sought to determine whether neuropathy was associated with breast cancer recurrence. Methods: This study included 4,950 eligible women with axillary lymph node positive or high-risk node-negative breast cancer who received up to 4 cycles of AC (doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2) every 3 weeks, followed by either: (1) paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 every 3 weeks x 4 (P3), (2) paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 weekly x 12 (P1), (3) docetaxel 100 mg/m2 every 3 weeks x 4 (D3), or (4) docetaxel 35 mg/m2 weekly x 12 (D1). Chemotherapy doses were based on actual body weight. Cox proportional hazards model were used to determine the relationship between neuropathy and disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) treating neuropathy status as a time dependent covariate and using a landmark analysis. Results: Of 4,702 patients who received at least 1 taxane dose, grade 2-4 neuropathy developed in 20%, 27%, 16%, and 16% in the P3, P1, D3, and D1 arms, respectively. In a model including age, tumor size, nodal status, treatment arm, neuropathy, and the neuropathy- treatment interaction, there was no relationship between neuropathy and DFS and OS in the entire population, for any of the individual treatment arms, or for any breast cancer subtypes, whether analyzed as a time-dependent covariate or using a landmark analysis. Baseline covariates associated with an increase rate of neuropathy included black race (25% vs. 19% grade 2-4, p=0.02) and obesity (21% vs. 19%, p=0.04), but not age. Conclusions: There was no association between taxane-induced neuropathy and DFS or OS in patients treated with contemporary AC-taxane therapy, including weekly paclitaxel. These findings show that taxane-induced neuropathy is not associated with outcome, thus suggesting that validation of SNPs predictive of neuropathy may be useful in identifying patients at higher risk for neuropathy but not taxane benefit and thereby improve therapeutic individualization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ixabepilone is a semisynthetic epothilone B analogue that is active in taxane-resistant cell lines and has shown activity in patients with refractory breast and ovarian cancer. We carried out a phase I trial of ixabepilone plus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in patients with advanced taxane-pretreated ovarian and breast cancer. METHODS Patients with recurrent ovarian or breast carcinoma received PLD every 3 or 4 weeks plus five different dose schemas of ixabepilone in cohorts of three to six patients. RESULTS Thirty patients received a total of 142 treatment cycles of the PLD-ixabepilone combination. The recommended phase II dose and schedule of ixabepilone was 16 mg/m(2) on days 1, 8, and 15 plus PLD 30 mg/m(2) given on day 1, repeated every 4 weeks. Hand-foot syndrome and mucositis were dose limiting when both ixabepilone and PLD were given every 3 or 4 weeks. Objective responses were observed in 3 of 13 patients (23%) with breast cancer and 5 of 17 patients (29%) with ovarian cancer. CONCLUSION Ixabepilone may be safely combined with PLD, but tolerability is highly dependent upon the scheduling of both agents. This combination demonstrated efficacy in patients with breast and ovarian cancer and merits further evaluation in these settings.

Abstract
500 Background: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with a higher risk of recurrence and earlier recurrences than other breast cancer phenotypes. We evaluated the genotypic features of TNBC compared with hormone receptor (HR)-positive disease, and also evaluated genotypic features associated with recurrence. Methods: RNA extracted from tumor samples obtained from 764 patients with stage I-III breast cancer was analyzed by RT-PCR for 371 genes. All patients received adjuvant chemotherapy (plus hormonal therapy in HR-positive disease) in trial E2197; HR and HER2 expression were evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in a central lab (J Clin Oncol 26:2473–2481). An unsupervised clustering analysis was performed in all samples (N=764). Cox proportional hazard models were used to identify differences in gene expression in TNBC versus HR-positive disease, and with recurrence in phenotypically defined (by IHC) TNBC (N=246) and HR-positive (N=465) disease. Results: Unsupervised analysis revealed two major clusters that differed with regard to HR expression by IHC. Supervised analysis comparing the TNBC vs. HR-positive phenotypes revealed 269 genes (73%) with significantly different expression (p<0.0001). The top 10% of genes exhibiting higher expression the TN group included genes associated with nucleosome assembly (CENPA), kinase activity (TTK), cell division (KIFC2), proliferation (BUB1), intracellular signaling (DEPDC1), DNA repair (CHK1), anti-apoptosis (GSTP1), and transcriptional regulation (MYBL2). There was increased expression of genes for which inhibitors are currently being evaluated, including AURKB and CHK1 in TNBC, and IGF1R and RhoC in HR-positive disease. Although GRB7 expression was significantly lower in the TN group, increased expression of GRB7 was the only gene in the TNBC group (but not the HR-positive group) associated with increased recurrence (p=0.04), and did not correlate with nodal status, tumor size, or grade. Conclusions: We genotypically characterized breast cancers that have also undergone rigorous phenotypic characterization.. There were significant differences in gene expression between the TN and HR-positive groups, including genes for which targeted agents are currently being evaluated in the clinic. [Table: see text]

Abstract
e20522 Background: A randomized, multicenter phase 3 trial of PLD+D showed a significant improvement in the primary endpoint of time to progression (TTP) compared with D alone but with increased Grade 3/4 hand-foot syndrome (HFS: 24% vs. 0%) and mucositis/stomatitis (M/S: 12% vs. 1%) in patients (pts) with advanced breast cancer (BC). (Sparano JA et al. SABCS 2008. #80) This analysis evaluated HRQOL in these pts. Methods: Pts were randomized to D 75 mg/m2 (N=373) or PLD 30 mg/m2 + D 60 mg/m2 (N=378) on Day 1 every 21 days until progression or unacceptable toxicity. HRQOL was assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Breast (FACT-B) at baseline and at every cycle during treatment. FACT-B has 4 primary domains: physical, social/family, emotional, and functional, plus a BC-specific subscale. The primary analysis was a t-test comparison of change in the trial outcome index (TOI) from baseline to the last evaluation. TOI combined physical/functional domain scores with BC-specific scores. Other FACT-B endpoints analyzed included FACT-B total score and individual subscales. Also, % pts meeting an established minimally important difference (MID) of HRQOL improvement in TOI was assessed. Results: Median number of cycles was 6 for both arms. TOI was available for 97.9% of all scheduled assessments for both treatment groups. At baseline, mean FACT-B and TOI scores were similar for PLD+D vs D arms (94.2±18.6 vs 95.3±18.7 and 59.7±13.8 vs 60.2±13.4, respectively); other FACT-B domains were also similar. PLD+D vs D arms showed similar mean change from baseline to last evaluation in TOI (-4.6±12.2 vs -6.0±12.4; P=0.13). Other FACT-B subscales showed 1–2 point differences across domains over time. Likewise, % pts reaching MID was similar across arms. Pts in both arms experienced similar FACT-B declines as disease progressed. Conclusions: Despite increased HFS and M/S with PLD+D vs D alone, HRQOL was comparable for both arms. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fulvestrant produces a clinical benefit rate (CBR) of approximately 45% in tamoxifen-resistant, hormone receptor (HR)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and 32% in aromatase inhibitor (AI)-resistant disease. The farnesyltransferase inhibitor tipifarnib inhibits Ras signaling and has preclinical and clinical activity in endocrine therapy-resistant disease. The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of tipifarnib-fulvestrant combination in HR-positive MBC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Postmenopausal women with no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease received i.m. fulvestrant 250 mg on day 1 plus oral tipifarnib 300 mg twice daily on days 1-21 every 28 days. The primary end point was CBR. RESULTS The CBR was 51.6% [95% confidence interval (CI) 34.0% to 69.2%] in 31 eligible patients and 47.6% (95% CI 26.3% to 69.0%) in 21 patients with AI-resistant disease. A futility analysis indicated that it was unlikely to achieve the prespecified 70% CBR. Tipifarnib dose modification was required in 8 of 33 treated patients (24%). CONCLUSIONS The target CBR of 70% for the tipifarnib-fulvestrant combination in HR-positive MBC was set too high and was not achieved. The 48% CBR in AI-resistant disease compares favorably with the 32% CBR observed with fulvestrant alone in prior studies and merit further clinical and translational evaluation.

Abstract #25
Background: Breast cancer lacking expression of the estrogen and progesterone receptor and overexpression of HER2/neu (ie, "triple-negative” disease) accounts for about 10-15% of all breast cancer and is characterized by a higher risk of recurrence, early recurrence, resistance to cytotoxic therapy, and lack of any specific targeted therapy.
 Methods: We extracted RNA from primary tumor samples of 246 patients with stage I-III triple-negative breast cancer (confirmed in a central lab) treated with 4 cycles of adjuvant doxorubicin (60 mg/m2) plus cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2) or docetaxel (60 mg/m2) who were enrolled on trial E2197, and correlated RNA expression (by quantitative RT-PCR using a panel of 371 rationally selected genes) with recurrence. There was no difference in recurrence between the two treatment arms in the entire study population, nor in the 246 patients in this analysis (of whom 59 recurred) after a median followup of 76 months.
 Results: Higher expression of GRB7 was the only gene significantly associated with an increased risk of recurrence (nominal p value 0.0000853, Korn's adjusted p value controlling false discovery at 10% (KP10) p=0.0359), but did not correlate with any clinicopathologic features except age (low expression associated with age > 65 years, p=0.03). In a Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for age, nodal status, tumor size, and grade, higher GRB7 expression was associated with an increased risk of recurrence when evaluated as a continuous variable (hazard ratio 3.41; p = 0.001) or as a dichotomous variable (hazard ratio 2.24 above vs. below median; p=0.006). The 5-year recurrence rates were 10.5% (95% C.I.7.8%, 14.1%) in the low and 20.4% (95% C.I. 16.5%, 25.0%) in the high GRB7 groups. There were only six genes whose expression correlated with GRB7 (r> 0.4), including ERBB2 (r=0.70), DDR1 (discoidin domain receptor tyrosine kinase 1; r=0.53), KRT19 (keratin 19; r=0.49), ERBB3 (r=0.48), GPR56 (G protein-coupled receptor 56; r=0.48) and PHB (prohibitin; r=0.42).
 Conclusions: GRB7 is a calmodulin-binding protein which has an SH2 (Src homology 2) domain that binds to phosphorylated tyrosine residues and other specific protein targets, and which plays a critical role in signaling (EGFR, HER2), motility (eprhins), migration (focal adhesion kinase), and cell-matrix/cell-cell interactions (integrins). Higher GRB7 RNA expression is associated with a significantly higher risk of recurrence in triple-negative breast cancer, indicating that GRB7 or GRB7-dependent pathways are potential therapeutic targets in triple-negative disease.

Abstract
1037 Background: Tipifarnib and fulvestrant both have single agent activity in hormone receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC), and tipifarnib enhances the activity of anti-estrogens in HR+ breast cancer cell lines. Methods: Eligibility criteria: measurable HR+ MBC, postmenopausal status, ECOG PS of 0–2, and no prior chemotherapy for MBC. Treatment: fulvestrant 250 mg IM on day 1 plus oral tipifarnib 300 mg BID on days 1–21 every 28 days (defined as one cycle). Response was evaluated by RECIST criteria every 3 cycles. The study was suspended for efficacy/futility analysis after 33 of 46 patients were accrued. It was designed to detect an improvement in clinical benefit rate (CBR; defined as objective response or stable disease for at least 24 weeks) from 50% to 70% (90% power, type I error 10%), and would require at least 26 of 42 eligible/evaluable patients to have clinical benefit (CB). The expected CBR for fulvestrant alone is 30% in aromatase inhibitor (AI) resistant disease (Ingle, 2006), 45% in tamoxifen (tam)-resistant disease (Osborne, 2002), and 60% when used as first line endocrine therapy (ET) (Howell, 2004). Results: Of 33 patients enrolled, 28 are currently assessable for CBR (2 were ineligible, and 3 have stable disease for < 6 months and remain on treatment). Grade 3/4 toxicity: neutropenia (15%), pain (11%) and gastrointestinal toxicity (11%). Tipifarnib was either reduced in dose (N=10) or discontinued (N=8) due to toxicity or non-compliance. The overall CBR is shown; should accrual continue, all 14 evaluable patients must have CB in order to meet the pre-specified efficacy objective. For the ET-resistant group, 18 were resistant to AI therapy (or AI plus tam in 5) and 2 to tam. * Number eligible/evaluable for CBR. Conclusions: The tipifarnib-fulvestrant combination is not likely to produce a CBR of at least 70%. The 45% CBR in ET-resistant disease may merit further evaluation in this setting.

Abstract
526 Background: Evidence suggests modern chemotherapy (CT) regimens are only marginally more effective in HR-pos breast cancer (Berry et al. JAMA 2006: 295: 1658). Genomic classifiers may be useful for selection of high-risk subjects for more aggressive CHT. Methods: A case-cohort sample of 776 patients enrolled on E2197 who did (N=179) or did not have a recurrence after CT (if HR-neg) or CHT (if HR-pos) and had available tissue were evaluated for Oncotype DX™ Recurrence Score (RS). E2197 included 2885 evaluable patients with 0–3 positive nodes treated with four 3-week cycles of doxorubicin (60 mg/m2) plus cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 (AC) or docetaxel 60 mg/m2 (AT) and hormonal therapy (if HR-pos). Median follow-up was 76 months. Results: There was no difference in DFS between treatment arms. In multivariate analysis, RS was a significant predictor of recurrence in HR-pos disease (p=0.0007, recurrence risk 21% lower for each 10 point drop in RS, 95% confidence intervals 9% to 31%). Recurrence risk was significantly elevated for an intermediate RS 18–30 (n=138, hazard ratio [HR] 2.96 [p=0.0002]) or a high RS ≥ 31 (n=108, HR 4.00, p=0.0001) compared with low RS < 18(n=196), but not for high compared with intermediate RS (HR 1.34, [p=0.32]); results were similar if only HER2-neg disease was included. The 5-year relapse free interval(RFI), breast cancer free survival (BCFS), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) for patients with HR-pos, HER2-neg disease are shown below (%); patients with both node-neg or node-pos breast cancers whose RS was < 18 had excellent outcomes. Conclusions: Oncotype DX™ RS identifies individuals with HR-pos, HER2-neg breast cancer with 0–3 positive axillary lymph nodes at 3–4-fold increased risk of relapse despite standard CHT, and may serve as a means to distinguish between those who do well with standard CHT (RS <18) from those who may be suitable candidates for clinical trials evaluating alternative CT regimens or other strategies (RS ≥ 18).

Abstract
1036 Background: Approximately 30% of human cancers have mutated Ras genes that produce proteins that remain in an active state causing uncontrolled proliferative signals. Post-translational modification of Ras include farneyslation catalyzed by FT. Tipifarnib (R115777) is an oral FTI active against human tumor cell lines and exhibiting modest single agent activity in pts with previously treated MBC. A previous phase I trial reported that CT inhibited farneyslation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells without affecting the pharmacokinetics of either agent. Objective: To evaluate objective response rate (ORR) of CT in taxane refractory MBC and to secondarily evaluate associated toxicity and progression-free survival (PFS). Methods: Pt with measurable MBC, previously treated (rx) with an anthracycline and relapse on a taxane or within 30 days (d). Study rx: T- 300 mg, po BID × 14 d plus C- 1,000 mg/m2, po BID × 14 d, followed by 7 d rest. Tumor reassessment was repeated q 3 cycles. The study was designed to detect improvement in ORR from 25% with C alone to 40% for the CT combination (90.5% power; type I error rate of 9.9%; 21 responses in 64 eligible pt needed to be promising. Results: 66/71 pt are available for primary analysis. Median age 50 yrs. Performance status: 0–1, 100%. ORR: PR-4.8% (3/62) [95% CI 0.01, 0.13], SD - 21% (13/62) [ 95% CI 0.12, 0.33]. Median survival - 10.6 months. Toxicity (%): anemia - 8(G3/4), neutropenia - 30 (G3/4), thrombocytopenia - 8 (G3/4), HFS-8 (G3), nausea/vomiting - 11(G3), diarrhea - 8 (G3), sensory neuropathy - 5 (G3). Conclusion: CT in taxane -refractory MBC has low antitumor activity without excessive toxicity. More mature data, including PFS, will be presented. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
516 Background: Evidence suggests that docetaxel is more effective than paclitaxel, and paclitaxel is more effective when given weekly than every 3 weeks in metastatic breast cancer (BC). Methods: Eligibility included axillary lymph node positive or high-risk (tumor at least 2 cm) node-negative BC. All patients received 4 cycles of AC (doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2) every 3 weeks, followed by either: (1) paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 every 3 weeks × 4 (P3), (2) paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 weekly × 12 (P1), (3) docetaxel 100 mg/m2 every 3 weeks × 4 (D3), or (4) docetaxel 35 mg/m2 weekly × 12 (D1). The primary comparisons included taxane (P vs. D) and schedule (every 3 weeks vs. weekly), and secondary comparisons included P3 vs. other arms. The trial had 86% power to detect a 17.5% decrease in disease-free survival (DFS) for either primary comparison, and 80% power to detect a 22% decrease for the secondary comparisons (2-sided nomimal 5% level tests corrected for multiple comparisons). Results: A total of 4,950 eligible patients were accrued. There was no difference in the primary comparisons afer 856 DFS events and 483 deaths after a median follow-up of 46.5 months at the 4th interim analysis ( www.sabcs.org , abstract 48). This is the final pre-specified analysis for the primary comparisons after 1,042 DFS events and 650 deaths (with 1,020 DFS events at this time, to be updated at the meeting). After a median followup of 60.2 months, there remains no significant difference in the hazard ratio (HR) for the taxane (1.02; p=0.73) or schedule (1.07; p=0.30) (as in the first analysis). In secondary comparisons of the standard arm (P3) with the other arms (HR > 1 favoring the experimental arms), the HRs were 1.30 (p = 0.003) for arm P1, 1.24 (p=0.02) for arm D3, and 1.09 (p=0.33) for arm D1. Analysis of interaction by hormone-receptor status will be presented. The incidence of worst grade toxicity (grade 3/4) was 24%/6% for arm P3, 24%/3% for arm P1, 21%/50% for arm D3, and 38%/6% for arm D1. Conclusions: There were no differences in DFS when comparing taxane or schedule overall. DFS was significantly improved in the weekly paclitaxel and every 3-week docetaxel arms compared with the every 3-week paclitaxel arm. [Table: see text]

Abstract
13095 Background: Anti-tubulin agents have potent anti-angiogenic effects (Blood 94: 4143–4155, 1999). Recent evidence suggests that “metronomic” drug schedules employing doses sufficient to inhibit angiogenesis yet low enough to allow more frequent administration may enhance the effectiveness of antiangiogenic therapy (J Clin Invest 105: 1045–7, 2000). We therefore performed a phase I trial to determine feasibility and safety of administering and oral navelbine (ON) preparation that is 40% bioavailable thrice weekly (TIW). Methods: ON was given TIW (eg, Monday-Wednesday-Friday) using the dosing escalation schema outlined below with 3–6 patients/cohort. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) during cycle 1 was defined as a) neutrophil nadir < 500/uL, b) platelet nadir < 50,000/uL, c) febrile neutropenia, or d) grade 3–4 non-hematologic toxicity. One patient was not evaluable (NE) due to urosepsis unrelated to treatment. No patient had a DLT. The most common toxicities were grade 2 nausea (n = 1), dyspepsia (n = 1) and abdominal cramping (n = 2), and grade 3 neutropenia (N = 1). One patient with renal cell carcinoma had stable disease for 19 months; a second with prostate cancer had a greater than 50% PSA response that lasted 18 weeks. Results and Conclusions: The recommended phase II dose of ON is at least 50 mg TIW. Further dose escalation was not possible due to cessation of the drug supply by the manufacturer. Correlative studies of surrogate angiogenesis markers (urine VEGF and serum VCAM-1 and Tie2in serum by ELISA) are currently being analyzed and will be presented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This pilot trial was performed to evaluate the safety, toxicity and pharmacokinetics of chronic therapy with the matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor marimastat in the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with high-risk node negative or node positive breast cancer received marimastat either 5 or 10 mg p.o. b.i.d. for 12 months. Marimastat was given either as a single agent following completion of adjuvant chemotherapy or concurrently with tamoxifen. RESULTS Sixty-three patients were enrolled from June 1997 to May 1998. All patients have completed 12 months of treatment or have discontinued therapy due to toxicity, relapse or intercurrent illness. Moderate (WHO criteria) arthralgia/arthritis was reported by 34% of patients receiving 5 mg b.i.d. and 45% of patients receiving 10 mg b.i.d.; severe arthralgia/arthritis was reported by 6% and 23% of patients, respectively. Six patients (19%) receiving 5 mg b.i.d. and 11 (35%) receiving 10 mg b.i.d. discontinued marimastat therapy due to toxicity. Trough plasma levels were rarely within the target range for biological activity (40-200 ng/ml) with mean concentration for patients receiving: 5 mg b.i.d. = 7.5; 5 mg b.i.d. plus tamoxifen = 6.9; 10 mg b.i.d. = 11.9; 10 mg b.i.d. plus tamoxifen = 12.8. CONCLUSIONS A randomized adjuvant trial with marimastat is not warranted as chronic administration cannot maintain plasma levels with the target range.

Abstract
Infusional CDE (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, etoposide; iCDE) is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic regimen for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), with a complete remission rate of 46% and a median overall survival of 8.2 months (Sparano JA, Blood 1993; 81:2810). Since the majority of HIV-associated NHL are CD20-positive we reasoned that the addition of rituximab to iCDE (R-iCDE) could also improve the poor outcome of these patients. As a first step we investigated the safety of R-iCDE in a phase I/II study. Thirty patients with aggressive HIV-associated NHL were enrolled between June 1998 and October 2000. Characteristics of 29 evaluable patients were: median age: 38 years (range 29-65 years); male sex 24/29; histology: DLCL 16 (55%), Burkitt 10 (35%), ALCL 2 (7%), unclassified 1 (3%); stage: I (35%), II (10%), III (10%), IV (45%); International Prognostic Index: 0, 1 (59%), 2 (24%), 3 (17%), 4, 5 (0); CD4 count: median 132/ mm3 (range 3-470/mm3). Patients received rituximab (375 mg/m2) in conjunction with iCDE (five or six cycles). All patients were treated with G-CSF and highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Twenty-six of 29 patients received treatment as planned, while chemotherapy had to be discontinued in three patients (2 persistent thrombocytopenias, 1 cerebral hemorrhage). Grade 3 or 4 toxicity was observed as follows: neutropenia 79%, anemia 45%, thrombocytopenia 34%, bacterial infection 34%, opportunistic infection 7%, mucositis 17%. A dose reduction was necessary in 22%. Complete remission was achieved in 86% of the patients, partial remission in 4%. Ten percent had progressive disease. After a median follow-up of 9 months the median overall survival is not reached. The actuarial survival at 2 years is 80% and the actuarial progression-free survival is 79%. Four of 29 patients (14%) have died, three from NHL and one from cryptosporidiosis. These findings suggest that the combination of rituximab with iCDE in patients with HIV-associated NHL is safe and feasible and that the addition of the anti-CD20 antibody does not increase the risk for infections. The high complete remission rate also indicates a potential therapeutic benefit and warrants further randomized trials.

Abstract
Doxorubicin and other anthracyclines are an important class of agents for the treatment of early and advanced stage breast cancer, but produce substantial acute and chronic toxicities. One strategy for reducing anthracycline-associated toxicity is packaging them in liposomes. Liposomes are closed vesicular structures that envelop water-soluble molecules. They may serve as vehicles for delivering cytotoxic agents more specifically to tumor, and limit exposure of normal tissues to the drug. Liposomal anthracyclines are more effective and less toxic in a number of preclinical models compared with conventional anthracyclines. Several liposomal anthracyclines have been extensively studied in humans with a variety of cancer types, including TLC D-99 (Myocet; The Liposome Company, Elan Corporation, Princeton, NJ), liposomal daunorubicin (Daunoxome; NeXstar Pharmaceuticals, Inc, San Dimas, CA), and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil; Alza Pharmaceuticals, Palo Alto, CA, Caelyx; Schering Corporation, Kenilworth, NJ). Although none of these agents are currently approved for the treatment of breast cancer in the United States, the liposomal doxorubicin preparations seem to have comparable activity and less cardiac toxicity than conventional doxorubicin. Furthermore, they have been safely combined with other cytotoxic agents, including cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil, vinorelbine, paclitaxel, and docetaxel. Further studies will be required do determine their role in the treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
The incidence of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is increased by approximately 100-fold in patients with advanced HIV infection. Clinical presentations may include systemic lymphoma, primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma, and primary effusion lymphoma. Systemic lymphoma is the most common presentation, is almost always of intermediate or high-grade histology and B-cell phenotype, and usually involves extranodal sites. The disease is potentially curable with combination chemotherapy used for immunocompetent patients with lymphoma, although cure is achieved in only approximately 10-35% of patients. Primary CNS lymphoma may be difficult to distinguish from cerebral infection. The prognosis is very poor, although approximately 10% of patients selected for therapy may survive beyond 1 year with brain irradiation. Attention to infection prophylaxis and antiretroviral therapy is important. Evidence suggests that highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has resulted in a decreased incidence of lymphoma, and that patients with systemic lymphoma treated in the post-HAART era have a better prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a combination of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil; Alza Pharmaceuticals, Palo Alto, CA) and docetaxel (Taxotere; Aventis Pharmaceutical, Parsipanny, NJ) that can be safely used for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Forty-one patients with locally advanced (n = 10) or metastatic (n = 31) breast cancer received Doxil (30-, 40-, or 45-mg/m(2) intravenous [IV] infusion over 30 to 60 minutes), followed 1 hour later by docetaxel (60 or 75 mg/m(2) by IV infusion over 1 hour) in cohorts of three to six patients. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as febrile neutropenia, prolonged neutropenia, or grade 3 to 4 nonhematologic toxicity that occurred during cycle 1. RESULTS In conjunction with docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) every 4 weeks, the MTD of Doxil was 30 mg/m(2) and required granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to prevent febrile neutropenia. Without G-CSF, the MTD was docetaxel 60 mg/m(2) and Doxil 30 mg/m(2) every 3 weeks; only 1 (7%) out of 15 patients treated at this dose level had cycle 1 DLT. Infusion reactions were common with Doxil with the recommended infusion schedule during the first cycle (55%) but were reduced with a modified schedule (7%). There was no clinically significant cardiac toxicity. Objective response occurred in eight of nine assessable patients with stage III disease and in 16 (52%) of 31 patients (95% confidence interval, 34% to 70%) with stage IV disease. CONCLUSION The recommended dose and schedule of this combination for further evaluation is Doxil 30 mg/m(2) and docetaxel 60 mg/m(2) given every 3 weeks without G-CSF. When used with G-CSF, it is Doxil 30 mg/m(2) and docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) every 4 weeks.

Abstract
Several reports have indicated that young women (less than 40 years of age) with breast cancer have a worse prognosis than older women. We performed a case-control study in order to confirm this observation and to determine whether this was attributable to increased microvessel density (MVD) or p53 expression. Twenty-six young women (cases) with stage I-III breast cancer that had adequate paraffin-embedded archival tissue were identified by the Montefiore Medical Center Tumor Registry over a 24-year period. For each case, two or three control subjects at least 40 years of age or older were selected from the registry and matched for nodal status and tumor size. Immunohistochemistry was performed for MVD and p53 overexpression. A Cox proportional hazard model was performed to examine the influence of age, MVD, p53 overexpression, and recognized prognostic factors on disease-free and overall survival. There were 26 cases (median age, 36 years) and 72 controls (median age, 64 years). The groups were well matched for known prognostic variables. There was no significant difference in p53 overexpression or MVD in the cases and controls. In multivariate analysis, the only features associated with an increased risk of recurrence included young age (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.49; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.18-5.25; P = 0.02) and positive lymph nodes (HR = 2.44; 95% CI: 1.12-5.30; P = 0.02). We have confirmed previous reports demonstrating a worse prognosis for women younger than 40 years with invasive breast cancer but found no correlation between young age and MVD or p53 overexpression when adjusted for other variables.
