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

e18094 Background: Palbociclib has been approved as a first line therapy in hormone-receptor positive (HR+) and HER-2 negative metastatic breast cancer(MBC) manifesting significant improvement in progression free survival (PFS). We studied this drug in a community setting. The endpoints were estimated PFS, objective response, toxicities and patient outcomes. Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective study of HR+MBC patients receiving palbociclib after its FDA approval. 22 patients were selected Results: A total of 22 patients were included (Male = 2, Female = 20). Median age was 60-years (range, 49-84). About 90% patients had received at least one previous therapy and the median number was 1.5. 13% patients were on fulvestrant, 86% on letrozole and 4.5% on exemestane. About 64% of patients had ECOG status of ≥ 1. Median duration of palbociclib treatment was 5-months, therefore, an estimated PFS at 18-months was 50%. 4.5% patients attained complete response. 22% patients achieved partial response, 22% had stable disease and 50% patients demonstrated disease progression. 72% patients had neutropenia, of which 45% were grade ≥ 3. Thrombocytopenia and anemia were common (63% and 58%, respectively) but grade ≥ 3 thrombocytopenia or anemia was not observed. 50% patients required dose reductions and 18% required drug cessation owing to side effects. Conclusions: PFS was much lower as compared to actual trials in our real-world experience. Despite, several interesting observations were good objective response rates in males and HER-2+ patients underscoring its potential clinical efficacy in these subsets. Furthermore, apart from myelosuppressive side effects, pneumonitis was observed in one patient necessitating vigilance in clinical practice

Purpose TAnDEM is the first randomized phase III study to combine a hormonal agent and trastuzumab without chemotherapy as treatment for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)/hormone receptor–copositive metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Patients and Methods Postmenopausal women with HER2/hormone receptor–copositive MBC were randomly assigned to anastrozole (1 mg/d orally) with or without trastuzumab (4 mg/kg intravenous infusion on day 1, then 2 mg/kg every week) until progression. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) in the intent-to-treat population. Results Overall, 103 patients received trastuzumab plus anastrozole; 104 received anastrozole alone. Patients in the trastuzumab plus anastrozole arm experienced significant improvements in PFS compared with patients receiving anastrozole alone (hazard ratio = 0.63; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.84; median PFS, 4.8 v 2.4 months; log-rank P = .0016). In patients with centrally confirmed hormone receptor positivity (n = 150), median PFS was 5.6 and 3.8 months in the trastuzumab plus anastrozole and anastrozole alone arms, respectively (log-rank P = .006). Overall survival in the overall and centrally confirmed hormone receptor–positive populations showed no statistically significant treatment difference; however, 70% of patients in the anastrozole alone arm crossed over to receive trastuzumab after progression on anastrozole alone. Incidence of grade 3 and 4 adverse events was 23% and 5%, respectively, in the trastuzumab plus anastrozole arm, and 15% and 1%, respectively, in the anastrozole alone arm; one patient in the combination arm experienced New York Heart Association class II congestive heart failure. Conclusion Trastuzumab plus anastrozole improves outcomes for patients with HER2/hormone receptor–copositive MBC compared with anastrozole alone, although adverse events and serious adverse events were more frequent with the combination.
