Abstract
We dedicate this manuscript in memory of a dear friend and colleague Bella Kaufman. The fifth International Consensus Symposium for Breast Cancer in Young Women (BCY5) took place virtually in October 2020, organized by the European School of Oncology (ESO) and the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO). Consensus recommendations for the management of breast cancer in young women were updated from BCY4 with incorporation of new evidence to inform the guidelines. Areas of research priorities as well as specificities in different geographic and minority populations were identified. This manuscript summarizes the ESO-ESMO international consensus recommendations, which are also endorsed by the European Society of Breast Specialists (EUSOMA).

Overall survival in the OlympiA phase III trial of adjuvant olaparib in patients with germline pathogenic variants in BRCA1/2 and high risk, early breast cancer. Ann Oncol 2022; 33:1250-1268. [PMID: 36228963 DOI: 10.1016/j.annonc.2022.09.159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 121] [Impact Index Per Article: 60.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The randomized, double-blind OlympiA trial compared 1 year of the oral poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, olaparib, to matching placebo as adjuvant therapy for patients with pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 (gBRCA1/2pv) and high-risk, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, early breast cancer (EBC). The first pre-specified interim analysis (IA) previously demonstrated statistically significant improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and distant disease-free survival (DDFS). The olaparib group had fewer deaths than the placebo group, but the difference did not reach statistical significance for overall survival (OS). We now report the pre-specified second IA of OS with updates of IDFS, DDFS, and safety. PATIENTS AND METHODS One thousand eight hundred and thirty-six patients were randomly assigned to olaparib or placebo following (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy if indicated. Endocrine therapy was given concurrently with study medication for hormone receptor-positive cancers. Statistical significance for OS at this IA required P < 0.015. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 3.5 years, the second IA of OS demonstrated significant improvement in the olaparib group relative to the placebo group [hazard ratio 0.68; 98.5% confidence interval (CI) 0.47-0.97; P = 0.009]. Four-year OS was 89.8% in the olaparib group and 86.4% in the placebo group (Δ 3.4%, 95% CI -0.1% to 6.8%). Four-year IDFS for the olaparib group versus placebo group was 82.7% versus 75.4% (Δ 7.3%, 95% CI 3.0% to 11.5%) and 4-year DDFS was 86.5% versus 79.1% (Δ 7.4%, 95% CI 3.6% to 11.3%), respectively. Subset analyses for OS, IDFS, and DDFS demonstrated benefit across major subgroups. No new safety signals were identified including no new cases of acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. CONCLUSION With 3.5 years of median follow-up, OlympiA demonstrates statistically significant improvement in OS with adjuvant olaparib compared with placebo for gBRCA1/2pv-associated EBC and maintained improvements in the previously reported, statistically significant endpoints of IDFS and DDFS with no new safety signals.

Adjuvant T-DM1 versus trastuzumab in patients with residual invasive disease after neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer: subgroup analyses from KATHERINE. Ann Oncol 2021; 32:1005-1014. [PMID: 33932503 DOI: 10.1016/j.annonc.2021.04.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2020] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In the KATHERINE study (NCT01772472), patients with residual invasive early breast cancer (EBC) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) plus human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted therapy had a 50% reduction in risk of recurrence or death with adjuvant trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) versus trastuzumab. Here, we present additional exploratory safety and efficacy analyses. PATIENTS AND METHODS KATHERINE enrolled HER2-positive EBC patients with residual invasive disease in the breast/axilla at surgery after NACT containing a taxane (± anthracycline, ± platinum) and trastuzumab (± pertuzumab). Patients were randomized to adjuvant T-DM1 (n = 743) or trastuzumab (n = 743) for 14 cycles. The primary endpoint was invasive disease-free survival (IDFS). RESULTS The incidence of peripheral neuropathy (PN) was similar regardless of neoadjuvant taxane type. Irrespective of treatment arm, baseline PN was associated with longer PN duration (median, 105-109 days longer) and lower resolution rate (∼65% versus ∼82%). Prior platinum therapy was associated with more grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia in the T-DM1 arm (13.5% versus 3.8%), but there was no grade ≥3 hemorrhage in these patients. Risk of recurrence or death was decreased with T-DM1 versus trastuzumab in patients who received anthracycline-based NACT [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.51; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.38-0.67], non-anthracycline-based NACT (HR = 0.43; 95% CI: 0.22-0.82), presented with cT1, cN0 tumors (0 versus 6 IDFS events), or had particularly high-risk tumors (HRs ranged from 0.43 to 0.72). The central nervous system (CNS) was more often the site of first recurrence in the T-DM1 arm (5.9% versus 4.3%), but T-DM1 was not associated with a difference in overall risk of CNS recurrence. CONCLUSIONS T-DM1 provides clinical benefit across patient subgroups, including small tumors and particularly high-risk tumors and does not increase the overall risk of CNS recurrence. NACT type had a minimal impact on safety.

Alpelisib plus fulvestrant for PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-negative advanced breast cancer: final overall survival results from SOLAR-1. Ann Oncol 2020; 32:208-217. [PMID: 33246021 DOI: 10.1016/j.annonc.2020.11.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 235] [Impact Index Per Article: 58.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2020] [Revised: 11/11/2020] [Accepted: 11/13/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Activation of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) pathway via PIK3CA mutations occurs in 28%-46% of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancers (ABCs) and is associated with poor prognosis. The SOLAR-1 trial showed that the addition of alpelisib to fulvestrant treatment provided statistically significant and clinically meaningful progression-free survival (PFS) benefit in PIK3CA-mutated, HR+, HER2- ABC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Men and postmenopausal women with HR+, HER2- ABC whose disease progressed on or after aromatase inhibitor (AI) were randomized 1 : 1 to receive alpelisib (300 mg/day) plus fulvestrant (500 mg every 28 days and once on day 15) or placebo plus fulvestrant. Overall survival (OS) in the PIK3CA-mutant cohort was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier methodology and a one-sided stratified log-rank test was carried out with an O'Brien-Fleming efficacy boundary of P ≤ 0.0161. RESULTS In the PIK3CA-mutated cohort (n = 341), median OS [95% confidence interval (CI)] was 39.3 months (34.1-44.9) for alpelisib-fulvestrant and 31.4 months (26.8-41.3) for placebo-fulvestrant [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.86 (95% CI, 0.64-1.15; P = 0.15)]. OS results did not cross the prespecified efficacy boundary. Median OS (95% CI) in patients with lung and/or liver metastases was 37.2 months (28.7-43.6) and 22.8 months (19.0-26.8) in the alpelisib-fulvestrant and placebo-fulvestrant arms, respectively [HR = 0.68 (0.46-1.00)]. Median times to chemotherapy (95% CI) for the alpelisib-fulvestrant and placebo-fulvestrant arms were 23.3 months (15.2-28.4) and 14.8 months (10.5-22.6), respectively [HR = 0.72 (0.54-0.95)]. No new safety signals were observed with longer follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Although the analysis did not cross the prespecified boundary for statistical significance, there was a 7.9-month numeric improvement in median OS when alpelisib was added to fulvestrant treatment of patients with PIK3CA-mutated, HR+, HER2- ABC. Overall, these results further support the statistically significant prolongation of PFS observed with alpelisib plus fulvestrant in this population, which has a poor prognosis due to a PIK3CA mutation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Women who carry germ-line mutations in BRCA1/2 are at very high risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. Breast conserving therapy is associated with a similar risk of ipsilateral cancer recurrence in BRCA carriers compared with non-carriers. However, the risk of subsequent contralateral breast cancer in carriers is markedly increased. Therefore, mastectomy of the diseased breast along with risk reducing mastectomy of the contralateral breast is often advocated for BRCA carriers who are treated for early breast cancer. Yet, many BRCA carriers forgo this option for fear of harmful effects and choose breast conserving treatment and observation instead. In Israel, BRCA-associated breast cancer is relatively common. Accordingly, a national protocol was devised for this enriched population. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this Institutional Review Board-approved phase II trial, the option of prophylactic irradiation to the contralateral breast, in addition to standard loco-regional treatment, was offered to BRCA carrier patients treated for early breast cancer who declined contralateral mastectomy. The primary end point was contralateral breast cancer. RESULTS Between May 2007 and October 2017, 162 patients were enrolled. Eighty-one patients opted for standard loco-regional treatment including surgery and radiation to the involved side (control arm) and 81 patients chose additional contralateral breast irradiation (intervention arm). At a median follow-up of 58 months, 10 patients developed contralateral breast cancer in the control arm at a median of 32 months, as compared with 2 patients in the intervention arm who developed contralateral breast cancer 80 and 105 months after bilateral breast irradiation (log-rank P = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS Among BRCA carrier patients treated for early breast cancer, the addition of contralateral breast irradiation was associated with a significant reduction of subsequent contralateral breast cancers and a delay in their onset. CLINICAL TRIAL Phase II, comparative two-arm trial (NCT00496288).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION
CPI has significant efficacy and toxicities. We describe our experience with CPI treated patients diagnosed with irAE encephalitis.
METHODS
Patients treated with CPI during 2017–2018 were identified from institute’s EMR. Patients treated for irAE encephalitis were identified from the database of the Neuro-Oncology Unit of the Institute. Results: Eleven patients were diagnosed with irAE encephalitis out of 1500 treated with CPI at the Institute (0.73%). Four patients had NSCLC, 3 had melanoma, the one patient had each of SCLC, uterine carcinoma, RCC and breast cancer. Median age was 69 years (49–87). Four of 11 were treated with chemo-CPI, 3-with CPI combinations. Median onset of symptoms was at 19 days (5–180) following initial treatment. All events were high grade severity. Eight patients fully recovered after immunotherapy discontinuation and steroid treatment, of these, 2 melanoma patients underwent uncomplicated CPI re-challenge. Three patients, all non-melanoma, had severe neurological sequelae. Two of them were treated with steroids, PLEX and cyclophosphamide: one improved neurologically although died 6 months later from cancer. One patient was oncologically stable but died from neurological deterioration 7 months later. The additional patient was treated with steroids only because his advanced age and decease in hospice 2 months later.
CONCLUSION
Encephalitis, as an irAE of CPI, seems to be more common and severe than previously thought, predominantly in non melanoma patients. Nevertheless, in the majority of cases it is reversible and in some melanoma patients immunotherapy re-challenge is safe. Future studies will have to define risk factors and severity prediction.

Abstract
Our goal was to provide comprehensive data on the effectiveness of ketamine in refractory status epilepticus (RSE) and to describe the potential consequences of long-term ketamine infusion. Ketamine, an N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, blocks excitatory pathways contributing to ongoing seizure. While ketamine use is standard in anaesthetic induction, no definitive protocol exists for its use in RSE, and little is known about its adverse effects in long-term, high-dose administration. We present two cases of RSE that responded rapidly to ketamine infusion, both with fatal outcomes secondary to metabolic acidosis and cardiovascular collapse. We performed a systematic review of the application and consequences of ketamine use in RSE. PubMed, Ovid, MEDLINE and PMC were searched for articles describing ketamine treatment for RSE according to a predetermined search strategy and inclusion criteria. The systematic review revealed wide discrepancies in ketamine dosing (infusion maintenance dose range 0.0075-10.5 mg/kg/hour), but good outcomes in medically managed RSE (75% of studies reported moderate or complete seizure control in adults, 62.5% in paediatrics). Additionally, literature review elucidated a potentially causal relationship between prolonged ketamine infusion and both cardiovascular and metabolic dysregulation. Ketamine is effective in RSE by antagonising excitotoxic NMDA receptors. However, there is high variability in ketamine dosing and scarce data on its safety in long-term infusion. Metabolic acidosis and haemodynamic instability associated with the use of long-term, high-dose ketamine infusions must be of concern to clinicians administering ketamine to critically ill patients.

Abstract
Background Homologous recombination defects in BRCA1/2-mutated tumors result in sensitivity to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors, which interfere with DNA damage repair. Veliparib, a potent poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, enhanced the antitumor activity of platinum agents and temozolomide in early phase clinical trials. This phase II study examined the safety and efficacy of intermittent veliparib with carboplatin/paclitaxel (VCP) or temozolomide (VT) in patients with BRCA1/2-mutated breast cancer. Patients and methods Eligible patients ≥18 years with locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer and a deleterious BRCA1/2 germline mutation were randomized 1 : 1 : 1 to VCP, VT, or placebo plus carboplatin/paclitaxel (PCP). Primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary end points included overall survival (OS) and overall response rate (ORR). Results Of 290 randomized patients, 284 were BRCA+, confirmed by central laboratory. For VCP versus PCP, median PFS was 14.1 and 12.3 months, respectively [hazard ratio (HR) 0.789; 95% CI 0.536-1.162; P = 0.227], interim median OS 28.3 and 25.9 months (HR 0.750; 95% CI 0.503-1.117; P = 0.156), and ORR 77.8% and 61.3% (P = 0.027). For VT (versus PCP), median PFS was 7.4 months (HR 1.858; 95% CI 1.278-2.702; P = 0.001), interim median OS 19.1 months (HR 1.483; 95% CI 1.032-2.131; P = 0.032), and ORR 28.6% (P < 0.001). Safety profile was comparable between carboplatin/paclitaxel arms. Adverse events (all grades) of neutropenia, anemia, alopecia, and neuropathy were less frequent with VT versus PCP. Conclusion Numerical but not statistically significant increases in both PFS and OS were observed in patients with BRCA1/2-mutated recurrent/metastatic breast cancer receiving VCP compared with PCP. The addition of veliparib to carboplatin/paclitaxel significantly improved ORR. There was no clinically meaningful increase in toxicity with VCP versus PCP. VT was inferior to PCP. An ongoing phase III trial is evaluating VCP versus PCP, with optional continuation single-agent therapy with veliparib/placebo if chemotherapy is discontinued without progression, in this patient population. Clinical trial information NCT01506609.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is often dysregulated in HR+ BC and is associated with resistance to endocrine therapy (ET). Alpelisib (BYL719; PI3Kα-specific inhibitor) and fulvestrant showed signs of antitumor activity in patients (pts) with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), HER2– advanced BC (phase I), especially in PIK3CA-altered tumors (Janku et al. SABCS 2014, PD5-5).
Methods: SOLAR-1 (NCT02437318) is a phase III, randomized, double-blind study in men and postmenopausal women with HR+, HER2– advanced BC. Pts are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts based on PIK3CA tumor status (mutant vs non-mutant), and randomized 1:1 to oral alpelisib/placebo (300 mg once daily) and intramuscular fulvestrant (500 mg on Day 1 and 15 of Cycle 1; Day 1 of Cycles ≥2 [28-day cycles]) until disease progression or discontinuation. Randomization is stratified by presence of liver and/or lung metastases and prior CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy. Key inclusion criteria: recurrence or progression on or after AI therapy, ≥1 measurable lesion (RECIST v1.1) or predominantly lytic bone lesion, and ECOG performance status ≤1. Key exclusion criteria: symptomatic visceral disease or disease burden precluding ET, acute pancreatitis ≤1 year prior to screening or history of chronic pancreatitis, and prior therapy with fulvestrant, chemotherapy (except [neo]adjuvant), or PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitors.
The primary and key secondary endpoints are progression-free survival (PFS; RECIST v1.1; local assessment) and overall survival (OS), respectively, in the PIK3CA-mutant cohort. Other secondary endpoints include PFS and OS in the PIK3CA non-mutant cohort, PFS (Blinded Independent Central Review; RECIST v1.1), the association between PFS and baseline PIK3CA status in circulating tumor DNA, overall response rate, clinical benefit rate, safety, and pharmacokinetics. The primary endpoint will be analyzed by a stratified log-rank test at one-sided 2% level of significance.
Recruitment of the planned 560 pts is ongoing.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: V is a potent, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor that obstructs DNA damage repair. BRCA1/2 tumors are defective in homologous recombination, which leads to more error-prone mechanisms of DNA repair and increased sensitivity to PARP inhibition. V enhances the antitumor activity of alkylating agents such as TMZ in preclinical models. In addition, V+TMZ showed promising activity in a single-arm phase 2 study in pts with BRCA1/2 mutations. This phase 2 trial (NCT01506609) investigated the efficacy and tolerability of V+TMZ (or V+C/P) compared to Plc+C/P in pts with locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer harboring a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. Results from the primary analysis for the V+TMZ arm vs Plc+C/P are presented, and the V+C/P vs Plc+C/P results will be presented separately.
Methods: Male and female pts aged ≥18 years with histologically confirmed locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer were randomized 1:1:1 to: 1) V 40 mg BID D1–7 + TMZ 150–200 mg/m2 QD D1–5, 28-D cycle; 2) V 120 mg BID D1–7 + C AUC 6, D3 and P 175 mg/m2, D3, 21-D cycle; 3) placebo BID D1–7 + C/P. Key eligibility criteria included known deleterious BRCA1/2 mutation, ≤2 prior chemotherapies for metastatic disease, no prior platinum agent, and no CNS metastases. Randomization was stratified by hormone receptor status, prior cytotoxic therapy (yes vs no), and ECOG PS (0–1 vs 2). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1 by independent review. Overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and safety/tolerability were also evaluated.
Results: A total of 290 pts (284 BRCA+ per central lab) were randomized (V+TMZ, n=94 [91 BRCA+]). Baseline demographics and disease characteristics were comparable among treatment arms; 41.3% of pts had triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and 31.7% had received >2 prior regimens. Median study drug exposure was 6 cycles for the V+TMZ arm and 10 cycles for the Plc+C/P arm. Median PFS, median OS (interim), and ORR for V+TMZ were inferior to Plc+C/P (PFS 7.4 vs 12.3 mo, OS 19.1 vs 25.0 mo, and ORR 28.6% vs 61.3%). In pts with TNBC, median PFS was 5.5 (3.1–8.5) mo; 8.4 (6.8–10.6) mo for pts with non-TNBC. Treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) of interest occurring differentially with V+TMZ are shown in Table 1. Grade ≥3 AEs in ≥30% of pts in the V+TMZ arm were thrombocytopenia (48%) and neutropenia (37%).
Conclusions: V+TMZ provided durable responses, with less neutropenia, alopecia, and neuropathy than Plc+C/P; however, PFS, OS, and ORR were inferior in the TMZ arm compared to C/P.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The gold standard end point in randomized clinical trials in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is overall survival (OS). Although therapeutics have been approved based on progression-free survival (PFS), its use as a primary end point is controversial. We aimed to assess to what extent PFS may be used as a surrogate for OS in randomized trials of anti-HER2 agents in HER2+ MBC. METHODS Eligible trials accrued HER2+ MBC patients in 1992-2008. A correlation approach was used: at the individual level, to estimate the association between investigator-assessed PFS and OS using a bivariate model and at the trial level, to estimate the association between treatment effects on PFS and OS. Correlation values close to 1.0 would indicate strong surrogacy. RESULTS We identified 2545 eligible patients in 13 randomized trials testing trastuzumab or lapatinib. We collected individual patient data from 1963 patients and retained 1839 patients from 9 trials for analysis (7 first-line trials). During follow-up, 1072 deaths and 1462 progression or deaths occurred. The median survival time was 22 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 21-23 months] and the median PFS was 5.7 months (95% CI 5.5-6.1 months). At the individual level, the Spearman correlation was equal to ρ = 0.67 (95% CI 0.66-0.67) corresponding to a squared correlation value of 0.45. At the trial level, the squared correlation between treatment effects (log hazard ratios) on PFS and OS was provided by R(2) = 0.51 (95% CI 0.22-0.81). CONCLUSIONS In trials of HER2-targeted agents in HER2+ MBC, PFS moderately correlates with OS at the individual level and treatment effects on PFS correlate moderately with those on overall mortality, providing only modest support for considering PFS as a surrogate. PFS does not completely substitute for OS in this setting.
