Metastatic Setting

For the past 15 years tamoxifen has been the standard adjuvant hormone therapy for women with early-stage breast cancer and estrogen receptor (ER)-positive tumors, irrespective of nodal status and other clinicopathological parameters. Recent studies provided evidence that the optimal duration of tamoxifen treatment is 5 years. Based on the positive clinical results obtained with the administration of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) in the metastatic setting, several controlled clinical trials have evaluated the efficacy and side effects of AIs versus standard tamoxifen also as adjuvant therapy in postmenopausal breast cancer patients. The results of the above studies, suggest a therapeutic advantage of AIs over tamoxifen with regard to relapse-free survival and the risk of metachronous contralateral breast cancer. We review the rationale and the available clinical data on initial or sequential hormone treatment with AIs and we propose a novel scenario for possible therapeutic strategies based on the clinicopathological characteristics of the patients and on the biology of each single tumor.

Since the initial studies of adjuvant therapy in the 1970s, it has become increasingly clear that chemotherapy and hormone therapy have had a substantial effect on the survival of women with early breast cancer. It was originally assumed that only women with high-risk features would derive benefit from adjuvant therapy, but it is now apparent from numerous studies that adjuvant therapy improves survival in all subgroups of women with invasive breast cancer, although the absolute benefit varies depending on tumor stage and other prognostic features. Considerable progress has been made in elucidating effective adjuvant therapy regimens, but there continue to be many unanswered questions that are being addressed in ongoing clinical trials of adjuvant hormone therapy and chemotherapy. This paper reviews the current paradigms in adjuvant therapy, the published data that have affected current practice patterns, and the current controversies.

10592 Background: Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are expressed almost constantly but their activities change according to cell cycle phase. We studied the specific activity (SA; activity/expression) of CDKs to accurately evaluate their role in cell proliferation. We focused on the ratio of CDK2 SA to CDK1 SA because this ratio has been associated with rapid tumor growth in human breast cancer xenografts. Our goal was to investigate the prognostic significance of CDK2/1 ratio in node-negative breast cancer. Methods: We used a novel assay to measure SAs of CDK2 and CDK1 in 365 primary breast tumors. All tumors were histologically confirmed invasive breast cancer without lymph node involvement. The primary endpoint was relapse-free survival (RFS). Cut-off values for CDK2/1 ratio were defined as those points that best discriminated groups according to RFS. Tumors were grouped as low (136pts), intermediate (84pts), and high (145pts) CDK2/1 ratio. The median follow-up was 59 months (range 4–102). Results: Pts characteristics are described as follows: menopausal status: pre- 42%, post- 58%; tumor size: =20mm 48%, >20mm 52%; histologic grade (HG): I 28%, II 47%, III 23%; ER: (+) 57%, (-) 42%; PR: (+) 51%, (-) 48%. Pts with HG III or high CDK2/1 ratio showed significantly lower 5y-RFS rates than those with HG I/II or low/intermediate CDK2/1 ratio, respectively (HG: I 97%, II 91%, III 85%, P=0.040; CDK2/1 ratio: low 97%, intermediate 92%, high 85%, P=0.017). In univariate analysis, PR (- vs +, P=0.088) had a tendency to associate with relapse, and HG (III vs I, P=0.024) and CDK2/1 ratio (high vs low, P=0.011) also had a significant correlation with relapse. However, only CDK2/1 ratio showed a significant independent prognostic indicator in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 2.86, 95% CI 1.25–6.58, P=0.01). More important, among women (n=185) with hormone receptor (HR) positive disease given adjuvant hormone therapy alone, who have had no useful factors to predict their outcomes, high CDK2/1 ratio was also associated with worse prognosis than low CDK2/1 ratio (5y-RFS 84% vs 100%, P=0.007). Conclusions: For patients with node- negative disease, especially those with HR positive tumors given adjuvant hormone therapy alone, the CDK2/1 ratio might be useful as a routine laboratory test to predict outcome.
