Abstract
Abstract
Background: Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is an incurable disease and both the improvement of survival and maintenance of quality of life (QoL) are equally important aims of treatment planning. In patients with HER2-positive MBC, taxane-based chemotherapy in combination with dual HER2 targeted therapy with trastuzumab (T) and pertuzumab (P) is the standard of care first line therapy. However, adverse events are well-known side effects of any cytostatic treatment and can seriously impact the patients’ QoL. In addition, in HER2-positive MBC activated estrogen receptor (ER) signaling is associated with primary or secondary resistance. Thus, for patients with HER2-positive and hormone-receptor (HR) positive MBC, the synergistic combination of dual HER2-targeted therapy plus endocrine therapy might offer a better treatment option compared to cytotoxic chemotherapy-based treatments. Methods: Between 9/2015 and 11/2022, the multicenter phase III DETECT V trial randomized patients with HER2-positive and HR-positive (i.e. ER positive and/or progesterone-receptor positive) MBC in the 1st-3rd line setting 1:1 to receive T and P combined with either endocrine therapy or chemotherapy followed by maintenance therapy with T, P and endocrine therapy. Chemotherapy and the endocrine agents could be chosen from a variety of available regimens according to physicians’ choice. Based on emerging data strongly suggesting an additional benefit of CDK4/6 inhibitors, an amendment came into effect in January 2019 with the addition of ribociclib to both treatment arms after 124 patients had been randomized. The primary objective of DETECT V is to compare tolerability between the chemotherapy-free and chemotherapy-containing treatment arm; secondary objectives comprise the comparison of PFS, OS and safety. Here we report results of an unplanned interim analysis with data cut off June 22th 2022. Results: The results reported here are based on 153 patients for whom end of study was documented at the time of data cut off for this interim analysis (120 patients randomized before and 33 patients randomized after the addition of ribociclib; 115 patients in the 1st line setting; 77 and 76 patients in the chemotherapy-free and chemotherapy-containing arm, respectively). Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) did not differ between patients receiving chemotherapy-free and chemotherapy-containing treatment (median OS not yet reached vs. 37.2 months, hazard ratio 0.87, 95% CI 0.51 – 1.50, p = 0.63; median PFS 15.6 vs. 14.9 months, hazard ratio 0.98, 95% CI 0.64 – 1.52, p = 0.93). Study treatment was terminated prematurely significantly less often in the chemotherapy-free treatment arm (43.9% vs. 72.2%, p = 0.001). Furthermore, tolerability was better for the chemotherapy-free treatment as there were less adverse events (AEs) of any grade (585 vs. 793; 70 vs. 71 patients affected), less AEs grade 3 or higher (66 vs. 90; 33 vs. 48 patients affected) and less serious adverse events (45 vs. 52; 28 vs. 29 patients affected) reported in the chemotherapy-free treatment arm as compared to the chemotherapy-containing treatment arm. Conclusion: These preliminary results suggest that chemotherapy-free treatment for patients with triple-positive MBC might be an effective and well tolerated option.

Abstract
Purpose Discordance in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status between primary tumor and metastases might have important implications for treatment response and therapy decisions. Here, we evaluate both the frequency of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and the factors predicting HER2 discordance between primary tumor and CTCs as a potential surrogate for tumor biology and tumor heterogeneity in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Patients and Methods The number of CTCs in 7.5 mL of peripheral blood and HER2 status were evaluated in 1,123 women with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. HER2 discordance was defined as the presence of at least one CTC with a strong immunocytochemical HER2 staining intensity. Factors predicting discordance in HER2 phenotype were assessed using multivariable logistic regression. Results Overall, 711 (63.3%) of 1,123 screened patients were positive for CTCs (≥ one CTC). Discordance in HER2 phenotype between primary tumor and CTCs was observed in 134 patients (18.8%) and was significantly associated with histologic type (lobular v ductal; odds ratio [OR], 2.67; 95% CI, 1.63 to 4.39; P < .001), hormone receptor status (positive v negative; OR, 2.84; 95% CI, 1.15 to 7.02; P = .024), and CTC number (≥ five v one to four; OR, 7.64; 95% CI, 3.97 to 14.72; P < .001). Conclusion HER2 discordance between primary tumor and CTCs was observed in 18.8% of patients and was associated with histologic type, hormone receptor status of the primary tumor, and CTC number. The clinical utility of CTCs as liquid biopsy to assess tumor heterogeneity of metastatic disease and guide treatment decisions must be evaluated in prospective randomized trials.
