Optimizing taxane use in MBC in the emerging era of targeted chemotherapy.

2013

The first-generation taxanes, conventional paclitaxel and docetaxel, are established treatment options for adjuvant and metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, these agents have limitations, including primary/secondary resistance and harsh toxicities. The introduction of paclitaxel albumin represents a significant advance in taxane therapy as the first of a new generation of taxanes. This agent utilizes albumin pathways to achieve enhanced and targeted drug delivery to the tumour. The lack of solvent also means that it is well tolerated, despite the lack of premedications. Paclitaxel albumin is licensed in the United States and Europe as ≥2nd-line therapy in MBC (260mg/m(2) once every thre…

Efficacy and Safety of First-Line Bevacizumab (BEV) Combined with Paclitaxel (PAC) According to Age: Subpopulation Analysis of a Large, Multicenter, …

2009

Abstract Background: In three randomized phase III trials (E2100, AVADO, RIBBON-1), the combination of Bev with taxane-based therapy significantly improved PFS and response rate versus taxane alone in HER2-negative MBC. Subpopulation analysis of AVADO suggested that the magnitude of the benefit derived from Bev was similar in older and younger pts (≥65 vs <65 years). To gain further information on the safety and efficacy of first-line Bev–pac in older pts treated in the real-life setting, we conducted a subpopulation analysis of data from an ongoing multicenter non-interventional study initiated after the approval of Bev in Germany. Materials and methods: Pts who had received no prio…

Abstract P6-12-02: Phase Ib dose-escalation study of an Akt inhibitor ipatasertib (Ipat) in combination with docetaxel (Doc) or paclitaxel (Pac) in p…

2015

Abstract Background: The Akt pathway is frequently aberrantly activated in MBC (e.g. via PTEN loss, and/or alterations of PIK3CA, AKT1, or AKT3); additionally, Akt activation may occur in response to chemotherapy, leading to cell survival and chemoresistance. Ipat (GDC-0068) is a potent oral, ATP-competitive inhibitor of all Akt isoforms. In preclinical models, Ipat synergistically combined with taxanes. In the Phase I dose-escalation single agent study, Ipat was given to pts including MBC, and downregulated Akt signaling at doses ≥ 100 mg. Methods: Eligible pts with MBC, treated with up to 3 prior systemic chemotherapy regimens, received Doc 75 mg/m2 intravenously (IV) on Day 1 with escala…

Distinct HR expression patterns significantly affect the clinical behavior of metastatic HER2+ breast cancer and degree of benefit from novel anti-HE…

We analyzed data from 738 HER2‐positive metastatic breast cancer (mbc) patients treated with pertuzumab‐based regimens and/or T‐DM1 at 45 Italian centers. Outcomes were explored in relation to tumor subtype assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The median progression‐free survival at first‐line (mPFS1) was 12 months. Pertuzumab as first‐line conferred longer mPFS1 compared to other first‐line treatments (16 vs. 9 months, p = 0.0001), regardless of IHC subtype. Median PFS in second‐line (mPFS2) was 7 months, with no difference by IHC subtype, but it was more favorable with T‐DM1 compared to other agents (7 vs. 6 months, p = 0.03). There was no PFS2 gain in patients with tumors expressing b…

A phase III trial of nab-paclitaxel versus dacarbazine in chemotherapy-naive patients with metastatic melanoma: A subanalysis based on BRAF status.

2013

9030 Background: Activating mutations of BRAF V600 can be found in 40%-50% of melanomas and are related to poor prognosis. In a phase 3 trial for the treatment of metastatic melanoma (MM) in chemotherapy-naive patients, nab-paclitaxel (nab-P) vs dacarbazine (DTIC) demonstrated a significant improvement in the primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS), assessed by independent radiological review (IRR), and a trend toward prolonged overall survival (OS) at the interim survival analysis. The study also explored the effect of BRAF status on the efficacy parameters. Methods: Chemotherapy-naive patients with stage IV melanoma (M1c stage 65%; elevated LDH 28%) and ECOG performance statu…

Abstract Background: HER2 mutations are oncogenic in hormone receptor positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC), and may confer resistance to prior endocrine therapy but retain sensitivity to neratinib. Neratinib is an oral, irreversible, pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor with clinical activity either as a single agent or in combination with fulvestrant in HER2-mutated, HER2-non-amplified MBC. Genomic analyses suggest that acquired resistance to neratinib can occur via additional HER2 alterations, which may alter HER2-pathway signaling. We investigated whether dual HER2-targeted therapy could improve clinical benefit in a cohort of patients with HER2-mutant, HR+ MBC treated with neratin…

“Bevacizumab (Bev), irinotecan (IRI), folinic acid (FA), and 5-fluorouracil (FU) every 2 weeks (BIFF regimen) as first-line treatment for metastatic …

e15067 Background: The IRIFAFU regimen produced in MCRC pts a consistent activity (RR, 33% [95% CI, 27–39%], PFS, 7.4 [95% CI, 6.5–8.3] mo.) in 2 consecutive randomized SICOG trials . Bev was proven to significantly improve the efficacy of IFL regimen. Here we report the safety and activity results of the BIFF regimen as first-line treatment of MCRC. Patients: From Feb 2007 to Jul 2008, 95 pts with MCRC were treated: so far, 85 pts were evaluated for safety: M/F were 47/38, median age (range) was 64 (35–78) yrs. Fifty-six pts had a colon, and 29 pts a rectal carcinoma. ECOG PS was 0 (63 pts, 74%), or 1 (22 pts, 26%). Thirty-four (40%) pts had 1 site, 33 (39%) 2 sites, and 18 (21%) pts ≥3 s…
