Abstract
BACKGROUND Acquired estrogen receptor alpha (ER/ESR1) mutations commonly cause endocrine resistance in ER+ metastatic breast cancer (mBC). Lasofoxifene, a novel selective ER modulator, stabilizes an antagonist conformation of wild-type and ESR1-mutated ER-ligand binding domains, and has antitumor activity in ESR1-mutated xenografts. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this open-label, randomized, phase II, multicenter, ELAINE 1 study (NCT03781063), we randomized women with ESR1-mutated, ER+/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) mBC that had progressed on an aromatase inhibitor (AI) plus a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) to oral lasofoxifene 5 mg daily or IM fulvestrant 500 mg (days 1, 15, and 29, and then every 4 weeks) until disease progression/toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary endpoints were safety/tolerability. RESULTS A total of 103 patients received lasofoxifene (n = 52) or fulvestrant (n = 51). The most current efficacy analysis showed that lasofoxifene did not significantly prolong median PFS compared with fulvestrant: 24.2 weeks (∼5.6 months) versus 16.2 weeks (∼3.7 months; P = 0.138); hazard ratio 0.699 (95% confidence interval 0.434-1.125). However, PFS and other clinical endpoints numerically favored lasofoxifene: clinical benefit rate (36.5% versus 21.6%; P = 0.117), objective response rate [13.2% (including a complete response in one lasofoxifene-treated patient) versus 2.9%; P = 0.124], and 6-month (53.4% versus 37.9%) and 12-month (30.7% versus 14.1%) PFS rates. Most common treatment-emergent adverse events with lasofoxifene were nausea, fatigue, arthralgia, and hot flushes. One death occurred in the fulvestrant arm. Circulating tumor DNA ESR1 mutant allele fraction (MAF) decreased from baseline to week 8 in 82.9% of evaluable lasofoxifene-treated versus 61.5% of fulvestrant-treated patients. CONCLUSIONS Lasofoxifene demonstrated encouraging antitumor activity versus fulvestrant and was well tolerated in patients with ESR1-mutated, endocrine-resistant mBC following progression on AI plus CDK4/6i. Consistent with target engagement, lasofoxifene reduced ESR1 MAF, and to a greater extent than fulvestrant. Lasofoxifene may be a promising targeted treatment for patients with ESR1-mutated mBC and warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Background Variations in treatment choice, or late stage at first diagnosis, mean that, despite guideline recommendations, not all patients with hormone receptor (hr)-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (la/mbca) will have received endocrine therapy before disease progression. In the present study, we aimed to estimate the proportion of women with postmenopausal hr-positive la/mbca in the United States who are endocrine therapy-naïve. Methods Women in the Optum Electronic Health Record (ehr) database with a breast cancer (bca) diagnosis (January 2008-March 2015) were included. Patient and malignancy characteristics were identified using structured data fields and natural-language processing of free-text clinical notes. The proportion of women with postmenopausal hr-positive, human epidermal growth factor 2 (her2)-negative (or unknown) la/mbca who had not received prior endocrine therapy was determined. Results were extrapolated to the entire U.S. population using the U.S. National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. Results are presented descriptively. Results In the ehr database, 11,831 women with bca had discernible information on postmenopausal status, hr status, and disease stage. Of those women, 1923 (16.3%) had postmenopausal hr-positive, her2-negative (or unknown) la/mbca, and 70.7% of those 1923 patients (n = 1360) had not received prior endocrine therapy, accounting for 11.5% of the overall population. Extrapolating those estimates nationally suggests an annual incidence of 14,784 cases, and a 5-year limited duration prevalence of 50,638 cases. Conclusions A substantial proportion of women with postmenopausal hr-positive la/mbca in the United States could be endocrine therapy-naïve.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: CTCs can overexpress HER2 discordant from tumor HER2 expression. We aimed to describe characteristics of a CTC-defined group of pts with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) that is tumor HER2- and CTC HER2+ (HER2 tumor- CTC+).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from pts treated at Northwestern University who had serial evaluation of CTCs and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). We included pts with pathologically confirmed HER2- MBC and HER2+ CTCs. CTCs were enumerated with the CellSearch immunomagnetic kit (Menarini Silicon Biosystems), HER2 expression on CTCs was determined using the CellSearch CXC Kit in 7.5 cc whole blood, and ctDNA was analyzed using the Guardant360 NGS assay (Guardant Health).
Results: Among 98 pts with HER2- MBC and CTC analysis, 46 (47%) had at least 1 HER2+ CTC. In this cohort the median age was 53. At initial BC diagnosis, 80% had early stage or locally advanced BC and 20% had de-novo metastatic disease. Baseline histology was 65% ductal, 20% lobular, 2% mixed ductal and lobular, and 13% unknown. Pathology of metastatic tumor was hormone receptor positive (HR+)/HER2- in 78% and triple negative in 22%. Detailed HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) and FISH results from metastases were available from 63% of pts of whom 72% had an IHC score of 0 or 1 and 28% had an IHC score of 2 with negative FISH testing. The median time from the most recent pathologic metastatic tumor assessment to the detection of a HER2+ CTC was 6.5 mo. Twenty-two pts had simultaneous (within 8 weeks) HER2- tumor confirmation and HER2+ CTC detection. The median lines of endocrine therapy (ET) for MBC prior to detection of HER2+ CTCs was 1 (range 0-5, 41% no ET, 17% 1 line, 41% >2 lines). Pts received a median of 2 (range 0-10) prior systemic therapies for MBC prior to detection of HER2+ CTCs, (20% 0 lines, 41% 1-3 lines, and 39% >4 lines). Among these 46 pts, CTCs were analyzed longitudinally in 104 samples, with HER2+ CTCs detected in 77 samples. Number of HER2+ CTCs at initial detection ranged from <5 in 24%, 5-50 in 43%, and >50 in 33%, with a median of 11.5 HER2+ CTCs. CTC clusters were noted in 37% of pts. At initial detection the proportion of CTCs that were HER2+ was 0-25% in 13% of pts, 26-50% in 46% of pts, and 51-100% in 41% of pts. Seven pts had ERBB2 aberrations in ctDNA. Of 12 pts with tumor sequencing, 2 had ERBB2 mutations, 1 had ERBB3 amplification, and 1 had overexpression of ERBB3 RNA. After detection of HER2+ CTCs, 18 pts received HER2 directed therapy (with chemotherapy in 13 pts, with endocrine therapy in 4 pts, and as monotherapy in 1 pt). Imaging demonstrated a partial response or stable disease in 9 pts (clinical benefit rate 50%), including in 1 pt with trastuzumab monotherapy, progressive disease in 8 pts, and not evaluated in 1 pt.
Conclusions: HER2+ CTCs are frequently detected simultaneously or soon after HER2- tumor assessment in MBC. Within this newly defined subgroup, the several responses seen with HER2 targeted therapy serve as a proof of concept that HER2 tumor- CTC+ patients can benefit from HER2 targeted therapy. Future studies are needed to determine a clinically relevant threshold for HER2+ CTCs to guide further study of HER2 therapy combinations in HER2 tumor- CTC+ pts.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: While initial studies have found that combining chemotherapy with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) can augment responses, additional toxicity has been observed. The optimal sequencing of chemotherapy and ICB has not yet been described. Sequential responses to chemotherapy after ICB have been reported in various tumor types; however, data is limited, and this has not been described in breast cancer to date.
Methods: We identified patients (pts) from a small pilot study in HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who received at least 1 cycle of durvalumab (PD-L1 inhibitor) and tremelimumab (CTLA-4 inhibitor). We excluded pts without follow up data or if they did not receive subsequent systemic therapy. Comparison of differences between subgroups was calculated by Fisher's exact test for categorical variables and Wilcoxon rank-sum test for continuous variables. Time to treatment failure (TTF) of subsequent therapy and overall survival (OS) were assessed by the Kaplan-Meier method and differences between breast cancer subtype were compared by log-rank tests.
Results: Twenty-three pts received at least 1 cycle of ICB of whom 14 pts were eligible for this analysis. Nine had estrogen receptor positive (ER+) BC and 5 had triple negative (TN) BC. There were no statistically significant differences between the ER+ and TN subgroups in age, race, ethnicity, ECOG performance status (PS) at end of ICB, or sites of metastatic disease except for more lymph node metastases in the TN cohort (p=0.003). Overall response rates to ICB in this cohort was higher in TN vs ER+ (40% vs 0%, p=0.11). Pts received a median of 4 lines of systemic therapy for MBC prior to ICB. Subsequent therapy after ICB was eribulin in 29%, carboplatin/gemcitabine in 21%, palbociclib + endocrine therapy (ET) in 14%, anthracycline in 14%, ixabepilone +/- capecitabine in 14%, and paclitaxel in 7%. Clinical response was seen in 8 pts (57%), of whom 5 had ER+ BC and 3 had TNBC. The median TTF of subsequent therapy was 3.0 mo (1.9, 5.5), which compared to a median TTF for therapy prior to ICB of 2.5 mo. The median OS was 12.3 mo (2.3-13.3). There were no significant differences between the ER+ and TN cohorts (log-rank test p=0.74 and 0.90 for TTF and OS, respectively. Subsequent therapy was discontinued due to progressive disease in 44%, decline in PS in 19%, liver failure in 6%, treatment related adverse event in 6%, and unknown cause in 13%. Two pts remain on subsequent therapy with palbociclib + ET beyond 6 mo without disease progression. There were no statistically significant differences between TTF >3 mo (n=5) and TTF <3 mo (n=9) subgroups. Pts with TTF >3 mo were numerically more likely to have a PS 0-1 (100 vs 78%), liver metastases (80 vs 56%), and ER+ BC (80 vs 56%). Pts with TTF <3 mo had more lymphopenia (66% vs 20%) and more lines of prior systemic therapy for MBC (median 6 vs 4).
Conclusions: While median duration of response on subsequent therapy was short, a subset of pts had significant clinical responses. These findings provide rationale for prospective validation as they provide strategies for sequencing ICB with standard therapies.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: HER2 overexpression is observed on CTCs in advanced BC (ABC), but their significance is not known. We aimed to describe clinical, pathologic, and molecular associations with HER2 overexpression on CTCs in ABC patients (pts).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of data from ABC pts treated at Thomas Jefferson University and Northwestern University who had evaluation of CTCs and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). CTCs were enumerated with the CellSearch immunomagnetic kit (Menarini Silicon Biosystems), HER2 expression on CTCs was evaluated using the CellSearch CXC Kit, and ctDNA was analyzed using the Guardant360 NGS assay (Guardant Health). Associations with the presence of HER2+ CTCs were explored through univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Kruskal-Wallis testing evaluating HER2+ CTCs as a continuous variable was also conducted to confirm consistency of findings. Time to development of HER2+ CTCs was evaluated using Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.
Results: Baseline CTCs were evaluated in 209 pts (10% stage III, 90% stage IV) of whom 41% had no detectable CTCs, 23% had 1-4 CTCs, and 36% had >5 CTCs (stage IV aggressive). Twelve percent had CTC clusters. At least 1 HER2+ CTC was seen in 33% of pts at baseline draw. Of 39 patients with HER2+ BC, only 18% had HER2+ CTCs. Of patients with HER2+ CTCs, 55% had hormone receptor positive BC, 28% had triple negative BC, and 18% had HER2+ BC. On univariate logistic analysis, BC subtype or HER2 status was not associated with the presence of HER2+ CTCs. IBC pts represented 52% of pts and were less likely to have HER2+ CTCs (OR 0.40 95% CI 0.19-0.84). Bone metastases were associated with an increased likelihood of HER2+ CTCs (OR 2.46, 95% CI 1.12-5.38); however, other sites of metastases and number of metastatic sites were not correlated with HER2+ CTCs. Aggressive disease features including >5 CTCs and presence of CTC clusters were strongly associated with HER2+ CTCs (OR 15.72, 95% CI 6.89-35.8 and 8.97, 95% CI 3.23-24.89, respectively). Of 168 pts with ctDNA analysis, ERRB2 aberrations were seen in 22% of pts and were significantly associated with HER2+ CTCs (OR of 3.74, 95% CI 1.45-9.63). On multivariate analysis, the associations with >5 CTCs and ERBB2 alterations in ctDNA remained statistically significant. The associations of HER2+ CTCs with bone disease, >5 CTCs, CTC clusters, and ERBB2 alterations in ctDNA, and the inverse relationship with IBC were consistent when HER2+ CTCs were evaluated as a continuous variable with Kruskal-Wallis testing. Among pts without HER2+ CTCs at baseline, the time to detection of HER2+ CTCs correlated with the presence of bone metastases (HR 3.40, 95% CI 1.14-10.19), >5 CTCs (3.77, 95% CI 1.33-10.70), and visceral disease (HR 3.00, 95% CI 1.07-8.44).
Conclusions: HER2+ CTCs are common in ABC, independent of HER2 status of the tumor, and, in fact, common in the luminal BC. HER2+ CTCs were also strongly associated with CTC characteristics of aggressive disease with poor survival (CTCs clusters and >5 CTCs) and ERBB2 aberrations in ctDNA. Further studies will be investigating the role of HER2+ CTCs in endocrine resistance and the potential of anti-HER2 therapy in this unique CTC-defined setting.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: In vitro and preclinical data indicate that TPA, a selective PR modulator, has activity against hormone-sensitive early breast cancer. We conducted a pre-surgical window trial of oral TPA in Stage 0-II breast cancer to assess the effect of TPA on suppression of cell proliferation (Ki67), and on differential gene expression in responsive and non-responsive tumors.
Methods: We enrolled 70 pre and postmenopausal women into a 1:1 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of oral TPA 12mg (Repros Therapeutics Inc.) for 2-10 weeks. The primary endpoint was Ki67 labelling, comparing diagnostic core needle biopsy to post-therapy surgical specimens. Ki67 changes were quantitated by dual immunohistochemistry (Ki67/pan-cytokeratin) and image analysis (Aperio ImageScope and Definiens Tissue Studio®). RNA-sequencing (using RNA extracted from the paraffin blocks) was performed with Illumina TruSeq RNA Coding Access method. Differential gene expression pre-post therapy was assessed, followed by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis for pathway analysis. Ki67 changes from baseline were tested with Paired signed-rank test. For gene expression analysis, p values were calculated by Wald test and adjusted for multiple comparisons by Benjamini-Hochberg method (adjusted p <0.05 and 2-fold gene expression cut-off).
Results: Among 61 evaluable women, (29 placebo and 32 TPA) 97% of tumors were ER or PR positive and 91% were ER and PR positive (balanced across arms). A significant 6% decrease in mean %Ki67 was seen in the TPA arm (p= 0.003). When stratified by menopause, the significance held in premenopausal women (n= 22, p= 0.03) but not in postmenopausal women (n=10, p= 0.08). However, a Ki67 decrease (4%) was also observed in placebo group (p = 0.04); this was non-significant after pre- postmenopausal stratification. Overall, differential gene expression analysis showed no significant modulation of genes in either group. Using a pre-specified response parameter (50% relative reduction in Ki67), we identified 12/32 (38%) “responders” in the TPA, and 9/29 (31%) in the placebo arm. In sub-group analysis of these responders, we found 103 genes to be significantly modulated by treatment in the TPA “responders”, but saw no significant change in any gene expression in placebo “responders”. Gene set enrichment analysis for the 103 genes showed that TPA blocked the progression of cell cycle genes (PTTG1, PLK1, UBE2C, HIST1H3F, PSMD3, and etc.) and suppressed PGR and ERBB2 expression. In a pre-planned pooled analysis, these results will be combined with NCT02314156, reported in SABCS abstract 851790.
Conclusions: An anti-proliferative (Ki67) signal of TPA was observed in early stage breast cancer patients, but interpretation was limited by placebo group changes. The TPA group demonstrated differential suppression of proliferation-related genes among Ki67 responders, but the placebo group did not. Ongoing analysis will examine signatures related to stemness, metastasis, and immune suppression (potentially better endpoints in trials targeting P signaling). These analyses may help us select the right population and the right biomarkers for future trials.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:Cyclin D kinase inhibitors (CDK-is) have shown clinical efficacy in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) when combined with aromatase inhibition or estrogen receptor (ER) antagonism. Despite the benefit of this approach, clinical resistance develops sometimes early in the treatment without any response to endocrine therapy (primary endocrine resistance) or after initial response (secondary resistance) in all patients in the metastatic setting and the molecular basis for this resistance are still largely unknown. We evaluated the pattern of genomic alterations in circulating cell-free tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis of metastatic breast cancer patients with ER-positive tumors treated with palbociclib combined with either letrozole or fulvestrant and progressing during therapy.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of patients with ER-positive MBC who had longitudinal assessment of their disease by ctDNA analysis. The plasma-based assay was performed utilizing Guardant360 (Guardant Health, CA), a digital NGS technology to sequence a panel of > 50 cancer genes. After tabulating number of genomic alterations detected for every patient at baseline and after CDK-i therapy, analysis was performed to identify molecular profile changes in the entire population and in individuals with early progression of disease (<6 months).
Results: We analyzed data of 15 ER-positive MBC patients: 8 patients received fulvestrant/palbociclib and 7 received letrozol/palpociclib. The most common mutations before CDK-i therapy were: PIK3CA (16%), TP53 (16%), ESR1 (13%), KIT (9%), EGFR (3%), APC (3%), ERBB2 (3%), MYC (3%), PTEN (3%), RB1 (3%). After therapy with CDK-i the pattern of mutations showed stable and persistent incidence of PIK3CA, TP53 and ESR1. However, new mutations where identified: FGFR1 (6%), IDH (2%), BRCA1 (2%), BRCA2 (2%), CCNE (2%), CCND1 (2%), RAF (2%), AR (2%), ALK(2%). Also, the pattern of gene amplifications presented an increased rate of MYC and FGFR1 amp. Patients with progression of disease before 6 months of CDK-i therapy presented baseline higher number and variation of mutations compared to patients with disease controlled beyond 6 months of therapy.
Conclusion: Longitudinal assessment with ctDNA analysis suggest that a genomic alteration landscape consisting of persistent detection of driver and acquired mutations along with emergent new abnormalities in regulatory genes could potentially be related to primary or secondary resistance to CDK-Is in ER+ MBC patients. Future investigation of these alterations should be conducted.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
CTCs are well-established prognostic and predictive biomarkers for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and other solid tumors. ctDNA is emerging as a quantitative blood-based biomarker for monitoring genomic alterations and disease progression. We evaluated the clinical utility and correlation of these liquid biopsy molecular tools in a cohort of MBC patients.
Methods:
CTC samples were obtained from an ongoing, prospective study of blood based prognostic biomarkers for breast cancer patients. At this time, 71 patients and 98 total samples have been collected. CTC enumeration was performed using the CellSearchTM platform (Menarini, IT). Within this cohort, MBC patients who had ctDNA testing were identified. ctDNA testing was performed using Guardant360TM (Guardant Health, CA), a digital next-generation sequencing technology. Two groups were analyzed: (1) HER2-negative patients with CTC ≥ 5 in 7.5 ml of blood (2) HER2-positive patients who had been treated with HER2 targeted therapy.
Results:
22 samples (N=16 patients) were found with CTC ≥ 5 (range 8-904) and concurrent ctDNA testing (median timeframe between collection 0 days, range 0-42 days). There was a significant association between number of CTCs and the total number of genomic alterations detected in ctDNA (paired two sample t-test, p=0.012). In addition, CTC enumeration was significantly correlated with somatic alteration burden of the dominant clone (paired two sample t-test, p=0.023). The most common alterations detected in the blood were TP53 (55% of patients, 18 total mutations), PIK3CA (41% of patients, 15 total mutations), and ESR1 (32% of patients, 14 total mutations). For patients with HER2 positivity receiving HER2-targeted therapies (N=16 samples from 11 patients), only 18.8% of samples had detectable CTCs (all less than 5) as compared to 75.0% of samples with detectable ctDNA alterations. In N=12 samples with detectable ctDNA mutations, mean number of genomic alterations was 4.4 with mean somatic mutation burden of 2.95%.
CTCs detectedctDNA detectedCTC ≥ 5Mean number of ctDNA alterations+Mean somatic alteration burden+HER2- (only cases with CTC ≥ 5)100% (22/22)100% (22/22)100%6.716.1%HER2+ (all cases)18.8% (3/16)75.0% (12/16)0%4.42.95%+excludes ctDNA samples without detected genomic alterations
Conclusions:
In HER2-negative MBC patients, CTC enumeration was significantly correlated with the number of ctDNA genomic alterations and somatic alteration burden, indicating the potential for ctDNA as a prognostic, quantitative biomarker of tumor burden. In patients with HER2 positivity, ctDNA may be a more sensitive liquid biopsy tool given the rarity of detecting CTCs detection in this population using the CellSearchTM system. In HER2-positive patients, consideration of size-dependent selection of CTCs using filtration of cells that have undergone epithelial-mesenchymal transition may improve detection in this subgroup.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prolactin (PRL) receptor is over-expressed in breast cancer, and pre-clinical data indicate that it contributes to breast oncogenesis. Cabergoline is a potent dopamine receptor agonist of D2 receptors and has a direct inhibitory effect on pituitary PRL secretion. METHODS A phase II study of cabergoline in patients with metastatic breast cancer was conducted. The primary end point of the study was to determine the clinical benefit rate (CBR) at 2 months. Eligible patients had tumors of any receptor status with no limit of prior lines of therapy. Measurable and unmeasurable diseases were allowed. Cabergoline 1 mg orally, twice weekly (1 cycle = 4 weeks) was given until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. PRL receptor immunohistochemical staining was performed on available baseline tumor tissue; serial serum PRL levels were assessed. RESULTS Twenty women were enrolled; 18 were evaluable for CBR. Tumor receptor status was distributed as follows: HR-any/HER2+ 2(10%), HR+/HER2- 18 (90%). The CBR was 33% (6/18), median progression free survival was 1.8 months, and median overall survival was 10.4 months. Two patients experienced disease control for over 12 months. Most common treatment-related adverse events were nausea (30%), fatigue (25%), and elevation in alkaline phosphatase (15%). Nine patients had baseline tissue for analysis; there was no association between baseline tumor PRL receptor expression and clinical benefit (p = 0.24). Change in serum PRL level and response were not correlated after 2 months of treatment (p = 0.64). CONCLUSION Cabergoline was well tolerated, and while the ORR was low, a small subset of patients experienced extended disease control.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors such as palbociclib and ribociclib are associated with distinct adverse effects (AEs) compared to other targeted therapies. This meta-analysis of clinical trials summarizes these agents' toxicity profile. METHODS A librarian-guided literature search was conducted in March of 2017. The trials needed to have at least one of the study arms consisting of palbociclib or ribociclib monotherapy at currently FDA approved dose regimens. Heterogeneity across studies was analyzed using I2 statistics. Data were analyzed using random effects meta-analysis for absolute risks. RESULTS Seven randomized trials and 1,332 patients were included in our meta-analysis. There was evidence of significant heterogeneity between studies for serious AEs but not for death. The pooled absolute risk (AR) for all-causality serious AEs and treatment-related death were 16% and 0%, respectively. Patients treated with CDK 4/6 inhibitors had an AR of grade 3/4 neutropenia of 61%; neutropenic fever and infections were rare (1% and 3%, respectively). Grade 3/4 nausea, vomiting, and rash were rare. There was no significant correlation between age of patients at study entry and the risk of grade 3/4 neutropenia. CONCLUSION Treatment with CDK 4/6 inhibitors is well tolerated and associated with a low risk of treatment-related deaths. There is an increased AR of grade 3/4 neutropenia but a low AR of associated infections.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review aims to better define the limitations and patterns with which patients with MBC and CNS metastasis are enrolled into early phase developmental therapeutics trials. METHODS In June 2016, PubMed search was conducted using the following keywords: "Breast cancer". Drug-development phase 1, phase 2 or phase 1/2 trials for patients with MBC were included. Multiple-histology trials and trials without an efficacy endpoint were excluded. RESULTS In total, 1474 studies were included; Inclusion criteria for 423 (29%) allowed for CNS metastasis, 770 (52%) either excluded or did not document eligibility of patients with CNS disease. Trials accruing patients with HER2-positive MBC and including targeted therapies had higher odds of allowing for patients with CNS disease (adjusted OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.08-2.2.6; p=0.019 and 1.49, 95% 1.08-2.06; p=0.014, respectively). There were also higher odds of accrual of patients with CNS involvement into clinical trials over time (odds ratio=1.10, 95% CI 1.07-1.12; p<0.0001). CONCLUSION Most published early phase clinical trials either did not clearly document or did not allow for accrual of patients with CNS disease. Early phase trials with targeted agents or enrolling HER2+ MBC had higher odds of permitting CNS metastases.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Molecular diagnostic, in particular next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, improved the detection of actionable mutations (muts) in MBC at baseline and recurrence. We evaluated the ability of ctDNA to detect molecular abnormalities, monitor disease progression and predict outcome.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 91 patients (pts) with locally advanced and MBC, who had longitudinal assessment of their disease by ctDNA analysis. The plasma-based assay was performed utilizing Guardant360 (Guardant Health, CA), a digital NGS technology to sequence a panel of > 50 cancer genes. After tabulating number of muts and quantification of overall ctDNA detected for every patient at baseline, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to identify the best cut-offs that separated the pts who had a disease progression from those who hadn't, and the patients who died from those still alive. The overall survival (OS) analysis has been performed using Kaplan-Meier curves.
Results: 84 pts (92%) had stage IV cancer. 63% cases were ER+, 27% HER2+, 29% TNBC. 277 blood samples were collected and 84% had muts. 65% of the pts had serial samples. The average number of alterations detected in each sample was 3 (0-27) and the average ctDNA fraction detected was 4.5% (0-88.2%). The most common alterations were: TP53 (52%), PIK3CA (40%), ERBB2 (20%), NOTCH1 (15.5%), APC (14%), MET (13%). 16 pts (19%) were initiated on a targeted therapy based on ctDNA test results. At the time of analysis 36 pts (39.6%) were dead, 55 (60.4%) were currently alive. PFS was 5.2 months (ms) and OS was 21.5 ms. A statistically significant difference in PFS and OS by log rank test was found between % ctDNA at baseline < 0.5 versus ≥ 0.5 (p = 0.003 and p = 0.012, respectively) and number of muts at baseline < 2 versus ≥ 2 (p = 0.059 borderline and p = 0.0015). Moreover, a statistically significant association by Fisher's exact test was found between the number of alterations and the % ctDNA detected in the baseline sample (% of pts with muts ≥ 2 was 19% when % ctDNA < 0.5%, versus 85% when % ctDNA ≥ 0.5%; p < 0.0001).

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Despite significant advances in targeted therapy, HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC) remains incurable. Ideal treatment includes pertuzumab and trastuzumab in combination with a taxane in the first line setting, followed by ado-trastuzumab emtansine on progression. Optimal treatment regimens in the third and greater line of therapy are not defined, but continued anti-HER2 therapy is recommended. Margetuximab is a Fc-modified monoclonal antibody to HER2 that recognizes the same epitope on HER2 as does trastuzumab, with similar affinity. Margetuximab demonstrates increased affinity to the activating CD16A Fc-receptor found on NK cells and macrophages and decreased affinity to the inhibitory CD32B receptor compared to trastuzumab. In vitro studies showed enhanced antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity compared to trastuzumab. In a Phase 1 dose escalation and expansion trial, margetuximab showed single agent clinical activity against HER2+ tumors in patients previously treated with trastuzumab and other anti-HER2 agents. Methods: SOPHIA is a randomized, prospective study testing the hypothesis that margetuximab plus chemotherapy (CTX) is more effective than trastuzumab plus CTX in patients previously treated for HER2+ MBC. Sequential primary endpoints are centrally assessed progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The study size of 530 patients is determined to have 80% power to detect a hazard ratio for OS of 0.75. Secondary endpoints are investigator assessed PFS and centrally assessed overall response rate. Eligibility includes prior treatment with trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and ado-trastuzumab emtansine; no more than 3 prior lines of therapy in the metastatic setting; prior demonstration of HER2+ status at a local reference laboratory; and absence of active brain metastases. Eligible patients are randomized 1:1 to receive CTX (physician's choice: capecitabine, eribulin, gemcitabine or vinorelbine) plus either margetuximab or trastuzumab until disease progression or toxicity. Antibody may be continued after stopping CTX in patients with responding or stable disease. Progress to date: The trial was initiated July 2015 and is ongoing in the US and Europe with planned expansion to Korea and Israel. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT02492711; Eudract 2015-000380-13.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Estrogen receptor (ER)-α is expressed in about 70% of breast cancers and drugs that target the receptor function, selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERM) and aromatase inhibitors (AIs) represent the standard of care for patients (pts) with ER+ breast cancer. Nevertheless, prolonged exposure to endocrine therapy may result in acquired resistance and subsequent progression of disease. Recent evidence showed that activating mutations (muts) in the ligand-binding domain of ER-α occur in approximately 20% of pts exposed to endocrine therapies and those genomic abnormalities may represent the driver of endocrine resistance. In this context, ctDNA provides a non-invasive source for real-time next generation sequencing (NGS) studies, in order to understand the biology of ABC and guide and monitor treatment.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of 91 pts with ABC, including 57 pts with ER+ tumor, who had longitudinal assessment of their disease by ctDNA analysis. At the time of baseline sampling, 50/57 pts had stage IV cancer. The total number of blood samples collected was 184. 38 (67%) pts had serial samples. The average number of samples for each pt was 3 (range 1-7). The plasma-based assay was performed utilizing Guardant360 (Guardant Health, CA), a digital NGS technology to sequence a panel of > 50 cancer genes.
Results: Among the ER+ subgroup (57 pts), we identified 11 pts (19%) harboring ESR1 muts in ctDNA. All 11 pts had metastatic disease: 2 (18%) had bone metastases, 2 (18%) had visceral metastases, 7 (64%) had both sites of disease. The median age was 55 years (range 33-73). 5 pts had inflammatory breast cancer. The most common ESR1 muts were: Y537S (6/11, 55%), D538G (4/11, 36%) and Y537N (3/11, 27%). 7 pts carried polyclonal muts. At the time of testing, 10 pts had already failed at least 1 line of endocrine therapy (average 2, range 1-5), including 6 pts that had received a fulvestrant-containing regimen, 8 pts ≥ 1 line of AIs. After the mut detection, 5 pt were on endocrine therapy and 4 pts were started on/continued chemotherapy. ESR1 muts disappeared in 2 pts (fulvestrant-palbociclib and chemotherapy respectively) who achieved stable disease as best response. Three pts continued to harbour muts and then progressed (one died). 2 pts had tissue NGS and ESR1 mut was not identified. Progression free survival and overall survival were 8 months (ms) and 21.5 ms in ESR1+ subpopulation versus 6.2 ms and 22.2 ms in the ESR1- pts (p = 0.78 and p = 0.97, respectively). At the time of analysis 5 pts were dead, 6 were currently alive.
ESR1+ (n. pts) ESR1- (n. pts) Pts (total n.)1146 Previous chemotherapies11 (100%)31 (67%) Previous fulvestrant-containing regimens6 (54%)20 (43%) Previous AIs ± targeted therapy8 (73%)27 (59%)
Conclusions: We observed that ESR1 muts, a known driver of endocrine resistance, occurs at a high frequency in heavily pre-treated estrogen receptor positive ABC. Blood-based diagnostics can be used to identify ESR1 muts sometimes not detected by tissue-based sequencing of the metastatic lesions indicating tumor heterogeneity and allowing dynamic monitoring of ABC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A hallmark of cancer is its ability to evade the immune system, however, it can be harnessed to detect and destroy cancer cells through inhibition of immune checkpoints such as CTLA-4 and PD-L1. This strategy has complementary and non-redundant mechanisms resulting in immune activation and antitumor synergy; progression free survival benefit has already been demonstrated in melanoma. A critical barrier in developing immunotherapies, however, is the identification of predictive biomarkers of response to therapy. Immunopharmacogenomic biomarkers, such as mutational burden, neoantigen profiles, and T cell receptor sequencing will elucidate the molecular interface between cancer and immune system, and may predict those most likely to benefit.
Methods
A single arm Phase II study was designed to determine the efficacy of PD-L1 and CTLA-4 inhibition and effects on immunopharmacogenomic dynamics in patients with metastatic breast cancer. The primary endpoint of this proposal is to investigate the response rate of the PD-L1 inhibitor, durvalumab, and the CTLA-4 inhibitor, tremelimumab, in metastatic breast cancer; secondary endpoints will examine the T cell receptor repertoire clonality, tumor mutational burden and neoantigen profiles. A total of 30 patients will be enrolled and treated with durvalumab 1500mg IV and tremelimumab 75mg IV monthly for 4 doses, then durvalumab 750mg every 2 weeks for 18 doses to complete 1 year of therapy with the option to renew therapy for an additional year; biopsies and blood at baseline and 2 months will be collected to assess immunopharmacogenomic biomarkers. Patients are eligible if they have triple negative or ER-positive breast cancer and have progressed on at least one line of chemotherapy and standard endocrine therapy if applicable. This is the first study to investigate immunopharmacogenomic biomarkers of response to dual checkpoint blockade in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Lucitanib is a potent, oral antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptors 1-3 (VEGFR1-3), Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptors alpha and beta (PDGFRα/β), and Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors 1-3 (FGFR1-3). FGF aberrancies (amplification of FGFR1,or 11q[amplicon containing FGF ligands 3, 4, and 19]), are genomic alterations observed in over 20% of breast cancer pts and promote cancer proliferation and survival.
METHODS: MBC pts who had received at least 1 metastatic line of therapy were randomized 1:1 to 10 or 15 mg QD of lucitanib. Stratification was based on local assessment of FGF aberrancy; pts with both FGFR1 and 11q-amplified tumors were stratified as FGFR1 amplified. Central confirmation of FGFR1 or 11q amplification was done using Abbott FISH probes (FGFR1 or 11q copy number ≥ 6 and a ratio of FGFR1 or 11q to centromere ≥ 2). Investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) was the primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1, disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DR), and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE).
RESULTS: Enrollment completed in 3/2016; 178 pts that received at least 1 dose of lucitanib are included in this analysis (baseline characteristics in Table 1). Due to grade 3 hypertension in the 15 mg group (46% vs 37% in 10 mg group), enrollment to the 15 mg group was halted. Overall, most pts (97%) experienced at least 1 TEAE, with the most frequently (≥ 30%) occurring events being hypertension (73%), fatigue (48%), nausea (43%), hypothyroidism (40%), and headache (33%). Grade ≥ 3 TEAEs occurred in 66% of pts, with hypertension as the most frequent event (40%) followed by proteinuria and hyponatremia (both 6%). AEs were manageable with dose interruption or reduction, with approximately 8% of pts ending treatment due to an AE. Current median PFS is 3.5 mos (95% CI 2.8-4.6; range 0.62-12.95) and 2.6 mos (95% CI 1.8-2.9; range 0.82-18.87) respectively for the 10 mg and 15 mg treatment groups. No differences in clinical activity were observed by treatment group, FGF aberrancy, hormone receptor or HER2 status. Of the 168 evaluable pts, confirmed ORR was 3%; overall DCR was 27% (32% for pts in the 10 mg group compared to 20% for the 15 mg group); overall mean (standard deviation) DR of 3.3 (1.8) mos.

CONCLUSION: At 10 mg QD, lucitanib has modest activity with manageable toxicity in this heavily pretreated pt population. Future clinical development for lucitanib may focus on alternative biomarkers to identify sensitive tumors and rational combinations with other anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This study evaluates the incidence of bone fractures in women with BC.We found that women with invasive breast cancer are at an increased risk for bone fractures, with fractures most commonly occurring at lower extremity and vertebral sites. The risk is further increased in women undergoing cancer therapy. INTRODUCTION Bone loss and fractures in breast cancer have generally been attributed to aromatase inhibitor use. This study assessed the incidence of fractures after invasive breast cancer diagnosis and evaluated bone density and FRAX risk calculation at time of fracture occurrence. METHODS Retrospective cohort study of women with invasive breast cancer [June 2003-December 2011] who participated in an academic hospital based genetic biobank. Demographic and clinical characteristics were abstracted from the electronic medical record (EMR). RESULTS A total of 422 women with invasive breast cancer were assessed; 79 (28 %) sustained fractures during the observation period; fractures occurred at multiple skeletal sites in 27 cases (116 fractures). The incidence of fractures was 40 per 1000 person-years. Women who sustained fractures were mostly white and had a family history of osteoporosis (36.9 %, p = 0.03) or history of a prior fracture (6/79, p = 0.004). Fractures occurred 4.0 years (range 0-12 years) after cancer diagnosis. Fracture cases had femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) of 0.72 + 0.12 g/cm(2), T-score of -1.2, that is, within the low bone mass range. Fractures most commonly occurred in lower extremities, vertebral, and wrist sites. Hip fractures accounted for 11 % of fractures, occurring at a median age of 61 years. CONCLUSIONS Fractures occur shortly after commencing cancer therapy. Rapid bone loss associated with cancer therapy may precipitate fractures. Fractures occur at relatively higher BMD in BC. Occurrence of fractures in invasive breast cancer raises the possibility of cancer-induced impairment in bone quality.

Abstract
Because metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is incurable in most cases, the goals of treatment are improvement in quality of life, management of symptoms, and prolonged survival. The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is overexpressed in up to 30% of breast tumors, and before the development of HER-targeted therapy, HER2 positivity was predictive of poorer clinical outcomes. Trastuzumab and pertuzumab (anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies), lapatinib (a small molecule inhibitor of HER2 and the epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR]) are approved for treating HER2-positive MBC in the United States. Although trastuzumab plus chemotherapy is currently regarded as the first-line standard of care for HER2-positive MBC, it is not without shortcomings; these include its association with certain adverse events (e.g. cardiotoxic effect) and development of resistance. A number of investigational agents that target HER2 and other members of that receptor family are in clinical development for patients with HER2-positive MBC whose disease has progressed on trastuzumab. In addition, in an effort to overcome treatment resistance, clinical trials are evaluating combination therapy (investigational HER-targeted agents with trastuzumab or lapatinib). This review discusses recently completed and ongoing phase II and III clinical trials of investigational HER-targeted agents in the setting of trastuzumab-progressive, HER2-positive MBC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Lapatinib, a dual kinase inhibitor against both epidermal growth factor (EGFR) and human epidermal factor 2 (HER-2) and nanoparticle albumin bound (nab) paclitaxel was recently used by our group in a pilot study of early stage HER-2 positive breast cancer. We reported that the combination was well tolerated and showed good efficiency in this patient group. Cancer stem cells were recently identified in solid tumors including breast carcinomas. These tumor initiating stem cells are reported to be increased in HER-2 positive breast cancers. Lapatininb is postulated to reduce the percentage of breast cancer stem cells following HER-2 inhibition. This study aimed to investigate such an effect in this patient population of early stage HER-2 positive breast cancer cases uniquely treated by a combination of nab-paclitaxel and lapatininb.
Design: 30 patients with stage I-III HER-2 positive breast cancer were treated in a neoadjuvant setting with lapatinib 1,000mg/day and nab-paclitaxel 260 mg/m2 every 2 weeks for 4 cycles. The expression of the stem cell markers aldehyde dehydroganase (ALDH1) (BD), CD24 and CD44 (both Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was assessed immunohistochemically in breast cancer specimens prior to treatment and at the time of definitive surgery. Staining was considered negative if < or = 1%, and positive if >1%.
Results: Of the 30 patients, 28 underwent surgery and were evaluated for pathologic response. Complete pathologic response (pCR) was observed in 5/28 (17.9%) of the patients. Of the 17 patients for whom pre-treatment material was available 13 (76.5%) were positive for ALDH1 expression and 4 (23.5%) were negative. Of the 22 patients with material available for testing at the time of surgery, 5 showed pCR, 3 were negative and 14 (63.6%) were positive for ALDH-A1 expression. The CD44+/CD24- phenotype was variable and showed no difference between groups.
Conclusions: 1. Combination of lapatinib and nab-paclitaxel resulted in a complete pathologic response in almost 1/5 of the HER-2 positive early stage breast cancer patients. 2. Overall, there is a reduction in the number cancer stem cells following neoadjuvant treatment with lapatinib and nab-paclitaxel. Our results support the hypothesis that lapatinib may have an effect in manipulating the numbers of cancer stem cells in patients with HER-2 positive breast cancer. Additional studies are currently under way to further characterize these findings.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Optimal endocrine treatment (trt) for post-menopausal women with ER+ advanced breast cancer (ABC) progressing on or following a non-steroidal (NS) aromatase inhibitor (AI) is unclear. The EFECT study showed no difference in efficacy between the steroidal antiestrogen fulvestrant (F) & steroidal AI exemestane (E) in this setting (HR = 0.96, 95%CI: 0.82, 1.13; p = 0.65). Pre-clinical data suggest F may be more effective in a low estrogen environment. SoFEA investigated F combined with anastrozole (F+A) in patients (pts) with acquired resistance to previous AI compared with F alone & F alone vs. E. The combination of F+A was no better than F (HR = 1.00, 95%CI: 0.83, 1.21; p = 0.98) nor F alone better than E (HR = 0.95, 95%CI: 0.79, 1.14; p = 0.56); the lack of added benefit for F+A is consistent with previous 1st-line studies that have assessed this combination versus A alone (FACT & SWOG-S0226).
Methods: SoFEA is a multi-center partially blinded randomized phase III study postmenopausal women were allocated to F plus A (F+A n=243), F plus placebo (n = 231) or E (n = 249). Similarly, EFECT is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multi-center phase III trial of F (n = 351) versus E (n = 342) in postmenopausal women (see table). However, given the differences in prior endocrine therapy/responsiveness within SoFEA & EFECT populations, an individual pt meta-analysis combining data from SoFEA & EFECT will be conducted enabling exploration of putative effects within specific pt subgroups to establish evidence in support, or not, of a pt subgroup sensitive to F at the dose used in these trials. Subgroups to be analysed include receptor status, visceral involvement, AI sensitivity, age, NSAI setting & time on NSAI.
Results: 723 pts (480 in F & E) were enrolled from 82 UK & 4 South Korean centers (03/2004-04/2010) in SoFEA. 693 pts were enrolled from 138 centers worldwide (08/2003-11/2005) in EFECT. Trt was well tolerated in both trials; serious adverse events were rare. The meta-analysis will be conducted in July 2012 & results presented.
Conclusion: Combining individual pt data from SoFEA & EFECT via meta-analysis will provide definitive clinical information on pt's response to F at the dose used in these studies, in particular whether certain pts with acquired resistance to NSAI do experience benefit of use of this antiestrogen as opposed to E.

Abstract
Taxanes have remained a cornerstone of breast cancer treatment over the past three decades, improving the lives of patients with both early- and late-stage disease. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current role of taxanes, including an albumin-bound formulation that enhances delivery of paclitaxel to tumors, in the management of metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Since the introduction of Cremophor EL-paclitaxel to the clinic in the mid-1990s, a substantial amount of investigation has gone into subjects such as formulation, dose, schedule, and taxane resistance, allowing physicians greater flexibility in treating patients with MBC. This review will also examine how the shrinking pool of taxane-naive patients, a result of the expansion of taxanes into the neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings, will respond to taxane retreatment for metastatic disease. Taxane treatment seems likely to continue to play an important role in the treatment of MBC.

Abstract
Abstract
Sorafenib (SOR) is an oral multikinase inhibitor with antiangiogenic and antiproliferative activity. SOR is currently indicated for renal cell and hepatocellular carcinoma, with indications in other tumor types being explored. In a double-blind, randomized phase 2b screening trial (SOLTI-0701) in patients with advanced HER2−negative breast cancer (BC), the addition of SOR to capecitabine (CAP) showed a statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) compared with placebo (PL)+CAP (median 6.4 vs 4.1 mo; hazard ratio=0.58; 1-sided P=0.0006). The combination was tolerable. Grade 3/4 adverse events were comparable between treatment arms with the exception of grade 3 hand-foot skin reaction/syndrome (HFSR/HFS) (44% in SOR+CAP vs 14% in PL+CAP). The SOLTI-0701 results indicate a potential role for the oral combination of SOR+CAP in the treatment of BC and support a phase 3 trial.
Design: RESILIENCE is an ongoing multinational, double-blind, PL-controlled, randomized phase 3 trial designed to assess SOR+CAP as a first- or second-line therapy in advanced HER2−negative BC. Eligibility criteria include: ≥18 years of age; ≤1 prior chemotherapy regimen for advanced BC; and resistant to/failed taxane and anthracycline or no indication for further anthracycline treatment. Prior hormonal or radiation therapy is allowed, but prior use of VEGF inhibitors is not. Patients with significant cardiovascular disease or active brain metastases are not eligible. Patients are stratified by hormone receptor status, geographic region, and prior chemotherapy for advanced BC and randomized (1:1) to CAP (1000 mg/m2 po twice daily [BID], days 1–14 of a 21-day cycle) in combination with SOR (po BID, days 1–21, total dose 600 mg/day) or matching PL. CAP and SOR/PL doses can be escalated to 2500 mg/m2 per day and 800 mg/day, respectively, as tolerated. The protocol outlines strategies to manage toxicities with dose interruption and reduction. Dose re-escalation after reduction is allowed for SOR/PL (per protocol guidance) but not for capecitabine. Guidelines are provided for prophylactic and symptomatic treatment of HFSR/HFS. Radiographic assessment is every 6 wk for the first 36 wk, and every 9 wk thereafter. The primary endpoint is PFS. Assuming a 1-sided alpha of 0.005 and a power of 98.9%, the sample size is estimated at ∼519 patients, with primary analysis planned after 363 events. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, time to progression, overall response rate (RECIST 1.1 criteria), duration of response, and safety. In addition, patient reported outcomes will be assessed, and the trial will include an exploratory analysis of biomarkers. Enrollment began in Nov 2010. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01234337).
Conclusions: RESILIENCE will provide definitive PFS data for SOR+CAP as a first- or second-line therapy in HER2−negative locally advanced or metastatic BC. The phase 3 design and improved dosing guidance since SOLTI-0701 will better characterize the benefit-to-risk profile of this regimen.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
We previously reported the results of a phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of 3 different dosing regimens of ab-pac and docetaxel for the first-line treatment (Tx) of MBC (Gradishar et al. J Clin Oncol. 2009;27:3611–3619). Here, we report final overall survival (OS) and an analysis of safety and associated dose reductions (DRs).
Methods: Patients (pts; N = 300) with previously untreated MBC were randomized to 1 of 4 Tx arms (table). A step-down statistical approach was used for pairwise comparisons of Tx arms. The trial was powered for antitumor activity and safety.
Results: Tx arm C produced the longest OS (33.8 months) with an 11.6-month longer median OS vs arm B (HR 0.575; P = .008) and a 7.2-month longer median OS vs arm D (HR 0.688; P not statistically significant). OS data were consistent with previously reported investigator assessment of overall response rates and progression-free survival. Grade (gr) 4 neutropenia (np) was significantly less frequent in the ab-pac arms vs. the docetaxel arm (5-9% vs. 75%; P < .001). Febrile np occurred in 1% of each ab-pac arm vs 8% in the docetaxel arm. Rates of gr 3 sensory neuropathy (SN) were 21%, 9%, 22% and 12%, respectively, in arms A-D (P = .083). No gr 4 SN occurred. Median time to improvement to ≤ gr 2 SN was 20–22 days in the ab-pac arms vs 41 days in the docetaxel arm. Gr 3 fatigue occurred in 5, 0, 4, and 19% of pts in arms A-D, respectively. In arm C, best response was observed at cycle 2, whereas DRs due to toxicity occurred later, at cycle 4 (table). The percentage of pts dose reduced due to ≥ 1 Tx-related toxicity were 18%, 17%, 47%, and 28% in arms A-D. The median cycles at which DRs occurred were 7, 5, 4, and 3, respectively. Np and SN were the most common toxicities leading to DRs.
Conclusion: Ab-Pac 150 mg/m2 qw3/4 resulted in a 33.8-month OS, a longer OS than historically achieved with taxane monotherapy in MBC. Within the 150 mg/m2 ab-pac arm, best response occurred at cycle 2, whereas DRs due to toxicities occurred at later cycles. These data indicate that dosing ab-pac at 150 mg/m2 on a qw3/4 schedule may allow pts to achieve a clinical response before emergence of dose-limiting adverse events.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
We previously reported the results of a phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of 3 different dosing regimens of ab-pac and docetaxel for the first-line treatment of MBC (Gradishar et al. J ClinOncol. 2009;27:3611). Here we report outcomes for a subset of patients (pts) during treatment with ab-pac at 150 mg/m2 weekly for the first 3 weeks of a 4-week schedule (qw 3/4).
Methods: Patients (N = 300) with previously untreated MBC were randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms: arm A, ab-pac at 300 mg/m2 q3w; arm B, ab-pac at 100 mg/m2 qw 3/4; arm C, ab-pac at 150 mg/m2 qw 3/4; arm D, docetaxel at 100 mg/m2 q3w. A step-down statistical approach was used for pairwise comparisons of treatment groups. The trial was powered for antitumor activity and safety.
Results: Treatment arm C produced the longest overall survival (OS) (33.8 months) with an 11.6-month longer median OS vs arm B (22.2 months, HR 0.575; P = .008) and a 7.2-month longer median OS vs arm D (26.6 months, HR 0.688; P not statistically significant). Median OS in arm A was 27.7 months. These OS data were consistent with previously published overall response rates (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS). Forty-seven percent of pts in arm C required dose reduction due to toxicity, including 27% due to neutropenia (np), 15% due to sensory neuropathy (SN), 3% due to allergy/immunology, 1% due to febrile np, and 1% due to ulceration of the skin. The median OS for the subset of pts requiring DRs in arm C was comparable to pts not dose reduced: 35.2 and 31.8, respectively. Pts who were dose reduced in arm C received a median of 2 additional cycles of treatment compared with those without DRs: 10 (range 2 — 27) vs 8 (range 1 — 27). Investigator assessed ORR and PFS were numerically higher in pts dose reduced vs those not reduced. Baseline characteristics were similar between pts requiring DRs vs not.
qw 3/4, first 3 out of 4 weeks; CI, confidence interval; ECOG PS, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status. aInvestigator assessed. bAll grade 3, no grade 4.
Conclusion: Pts in the ab-pac 150 mg/m2qw 3/4 arm who were dose reduced achieved a similar OS compared to patients who were not dose reduced. No clear trends in baseline characteristics emerged to predict the requirement for dose reduction in the 150 mg/m2 ab-pac arm. The ab-pac 150 mg/m2 qw 3/4 dosing regimen provided a survival advantage in this phase II trial in first-line MBC and dose reductions could be used to manage toxicities and prolong treatment duration without compromising efficacy.

Abstract
275 Background: We previously reported the results of a phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of three different dosing regimens of ab-pac and docetaxel for the first-line treatment of MBC (Gradishar et al. J Clin Oncol. 2009;27:3611-3619). Here we report final OS outcomes. Methods: Patients (N = 300) with previously untreated MBC were randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms (arms A–D listed in table). A step-down statistical approach was used for pairwise comparisons of treatment groups. Results: Patients (N = 300) with previously untreated MBC were randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms (arms A–D listed in table). A step-down statistical approach was used for pairwise comparisons of treatment groups. These OS data were consistent with the investigator assessment of overall response rates (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) that were previously published. Rates of grade (gr) 3 sensory neuropathy (SN) were 21%, 9%, 22% and 12%, respectively in arms A, B,C, and D (p= 0.082). There were no cases of gr 4 SN. The median times to improvement to ≤ gr 2 SN were 22, 22, and 20 days for arms A, B, and C and 37 days for arm D. Gr 3/4 neutropenia occurred less frequently with ab-pac vs docetaxel (gr 3: 39, 20, 35, and 19% in arms A,B,C, and D, respectively; gr 4: 5, 5, 9, and 75%, p < .001 for gr 4). Conclusions: Ab-pac qw 3/4 at 150 mg/m2 resulted in a 33.8 mo OS, a longer OS than historically achieved with taxane monotherapy in MBC. The 150 mg/m2 qw 3/4 dosing regimen provided the best clinical outcome in this phase II trial in patients with MBC. [Table: see text]

Abstract
e12000 Sorafenib is a potent multikinase inhibitor approved by the FDA and EMEA for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma. As a single agent, sorafenib has been shown to have activity in pts with BC. Here, we review the TIES program, a compilation of currently ongoing investigator-sponsored phase IIb multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies that aim to determine the optimal sequencing of pharmacologic agents for the treatment of BC. All studies will combine sorafenib with first- and/or second-line chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy in pts with HER2-negative metastatic or locally advanced BC, enroll 220 pts, stratify pts by visceral vs nonvisceral disease, allow pts with evaluable and measurable disease, and include pts with treated brain metastases. The primary endpoint of all trials will be progression-free survival. Secondary endpoints will be safety, overall survival, objective response rate, duration of response, and time to progression. Some studies will also assess quality of life, pharmacokinetic sampling, and biomarkers. Additional information on four of the trials is shown below (Table). Patient characteristics and accruals will be reported. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
1079 Background: Liposomal formulations such as pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) were developed to improve the therapeutic index and overall benefit of the anthracyclines (A). L is a selective and highly competitive inhibitor of ErbB1 and ErbB2 tyrosine kinases. The combination of conventional doxorubicin and an ErbB2 targeting agent (trastuzumab), while effective, led in a randomized phase III trial to an unacceptable risk of cardiac toxicity. The combination of PLD and L however may be effective with less cardiac risk Methods: This is an open-label, phase I, dose-escalation trial of PLD at 20, 30, 45 and 60 mg/m2 IV every 4 weeks (maximum of 8 doses) and L, 1,500 mg po daily until progression in patients (pts) with MBC. EGFR and/or ErbB2 positivity was not required. Prior chemotherapy, endocrine therapy and trastuzumab were allowed however prior A use was limited to 240 mg/m2 of doxorubicin or 600 mg/m2 of epirubicin and prior EGFR targeting therapies were not allowed. Concomitant CYP3A4 inducers/ inhibitors were not allowed. A left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≥ 50% was required. The primary objective was to evaluate the safety, tolerability and feasibility of the combination of PLD and L, particularly with respect to cardiac safety. MUGAs were performed at entry and every 8 weeks thereafter. Results: 7 patients (PLD: 20 mg/m2 - 3 pts; 30 mg/m2 - 3 pts; and 45 mg/m2 - 1 pt) with a mean age of 43 yrs (range, 33–68) have been treated for a total of 14 treatment cycles. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) has not been reached. One pt experienced an LVEF drop to < 50% after 4 cycles however this was accompanied by a pericardial effusion felt to be secondary to progressive disease. Adverse events observed include: grade III/IV- none; grade I/II in ≥2 pts- rash, nausea, and anorexia; grade II leukopenia, fatigue, alopecia, diarrhea, headache were also seen in 1 pt each. Preliminary response data in 4 evaluable pts reveals 1 PR, 1 SD, and 2 PD. Conclusions: In the first 7 pts treated, the combination of PLD and L has been well tolerated. One pt experienced an LVEF drop to < 50%, however this was felt likely to be disease-related. DLT has not yet been reached and accrual is ongoing. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
1036 Background: Approximately 30% of human cancers have mutated Ras genes that produce proteins that remain in an active state causing uncontrolled proliferative signals. Post-translational modification of Ras include farneyslation catalyzed by FT. Tipifarnib (R115777) is an oral FTI active against human tumor cell lines and exhibiting modest single agent activity in pts with previously treated MBC. A previous phase I trial reported that CT inhibited farneyslation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells without affecting the pharmacokinetics of either agent. Objective: To evaluate objective response rate (ORR) of CT in taxane refractory MBC and to secondarily evaluate associated toxicity and progression-free survival (PFS). Methods: Pt with measurable MBC, previously treated (rx) with an anthracycline and relapse on a taxane or within 30 days (d). Study rx: T- 300 mg, po BID × 14 d plus C- 1,000 mg/m2, po BID × 14 d, followed by 7 d rest. Tumor reassessment was repeated q 3 cycles. The study was designed to detect improvement in ORR from 25% with C alone to 40% for the CT combination (90.5% power; type I error rate of 9.9%; 21 responses in 64 eligible pt needed to be promising. Results: 66/71 pt are available for primary analysis. Median age 50 yrs. Performance status: 0–1, 100%. ORR: PR-4.8% (3/62) [95% CI 0.01, 0.13], SD - 21% (13/62) [ 95% CI 0.12, 0.33]. Median survival - 10.6 months. Toxicity (%): anemia - 8(G3/4), neutropenia - 30 (G3/4), thrombocytopenia - 8 (G3/4), HFS-8 (G3), nausea/vomiting - 11(G3), diarrhea - 8 (G3), sensory neuropathy - 5 (G3). Conclusion: CT in taxane -refractory MBC has low antitumor activity without excessive toxicity. More mature data, including PFS, will be presented. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
In the past few years the treatment of early stage breast cancer has gone through several important changes. Both chemotherapy and hormonal therapy have been shown by large, randomized trials to offer a survival advantage. The most commonly used chemotherapeutic agents used in the US are doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (AC). However, 3 studies have suggested that there may be an advantage in the use of taxanes in the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer. Furthermore the use of dose dense chemotherapy, incorporating AC and paclitaxel, has shown very promising results. It is well established that tamoxifen (T), a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), improves overall survival (OS) in women with hormone receptor (HR) positive breast cancer. However, the results from large multicenter, randomized trials, suggest the potential superiority of aromatase inhibitors (AIs), compared to T or an advantage of sequencing T followed by an AI. The role ovarian suppression is still being investigated in patients who have received prior chemotherapy. Newer agents, such as the monoclonal antibody against the her2/neu receptor, trastuzumab, are now being studied as adjuvant therapy in early stage breast cancer. In the next few years, with the completion of several large randomized trials, we will be able to answer several questions, including the optimal way of incorporating AIs into the adjuvant therapy, the long-term sequella of using trastuzumab in the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer and the role of ovarian suppression combined with an AI in premenopausal women with breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate clinical and pathologic response to neoadjuvant docetaxel therapy in patients with stage III breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Forty-five patients were planned to receive four cycles of docetaxel 100 mg/m2 every 3 weeks, followed by surgery, four cycles of doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 (AC) every 3 weeks, radiation therapy (RT), and tamoxifen when indicated. RESULTS After four cycles of neoadjuvant docetaxel, the clinical response rate within the breast was 59% (95% CI 42% to 73%) and overall (breast and axilla) was 49% (95% CI 38% to 72%) in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population. At the time of surgery, 10% (n=4) of patients had a pathologic complete response (pCR) in the breast, 27% (n=11) had a pCR within the axillary lymph nodes, and 7% (n=3) had a pCR in the breast and axilla (95% CI 2% to 21%). An additional 5% (n=2) had minimal residual invasive tumor (<5 mm). The 5-year overall survival rate was 80%. The percentage of patients with grade 3/4 neutropenia was similar during docetaxel (93%) and AC (86%), while a greater percentage of patients had febrile neutropenia during docetaxel treatment (27%) compared with AC treatment (7%). CONCLUSIONS Neoadjuvant docetaxel followed by surgery, adjuvant AC, hormonal therapy where indicated, and RT is an active regimen for patients with stage III breast cancer.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the efficacy and safety of weekly docetaxel and trastuzumab as first- or second-line therapy in women with HER-2–overexpressing metastatic breast cancer and to correlate the efficacy of trastuzumab with HER-2 status as determined by immunohistochemistry assay and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Patients and Methods Twenty-six women with HER-2–positive (HercepTest [Dako Corp, Carpenteria, CA]2 to 3+) metastatic breast cancer were enrolled onto this study of trastuzumab (4 mg/kg load; 2 mg/kg/wk administered intravenously) and docetaxel (35 mg/m2/wk for 6 weeks). Results Using an intent-to-treat analysis, the overall response rate was 50% (13 of 26 patients). Eight patients (31%) had a period of stable disease posttherapy. Among HER-2 3+ patients, the overall response rate was 63% (12 of 19 patients) compared with a 14% response rate (one of seven patients) for HER-2 2+ patients (P = .07). Patients with FISH-positive tumors experienced an overall response rate of 64%. Median time to progression was 12.4 months for the entire cohort (HER-2 3+ tumors, 12.3 months; HER-2 2+ lesions, 9.5 months) and median survival was 22.1 months. All HER-2 3+ patients were FISH-positive; the only HER-2 2+ patient responding to treatment was also FISH-positive. Grade 4 toxicities occurred in four patients; most toxicities were mild. Conclusion Trastuzumab plus docetaxel is an active and well-tolerated regimen in women with HER-2 3+ overexpressing or FISH-positive metastatic breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cisplatin has minimal antitumor activity when used as second- or third-line treatment of metastatic breast carcinoma. Older reports suggest an objective response rate of 8% when 60-120 mg/m2 of cisplatin is administered every 3-4 weeks. Although a dose-response effect has been observed with cisplatin, the dose-limiting toxicities associated with cisplatin (e.g., nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, and neurotoxicity) have limited its use as a treatment for breast carcinoma. WR-2721 or amifostine initially was developed to protect military personnel in the event of nuclear war. Amifostine subsequently was shown to protect normal tissues from the toxic effects of alkylating agents and cisplatin without decreasing the antitumor effect of the chemotherapy. Early trials of cisplatin and amifostine also suggested that the incidence and severity of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, and neuropathy were reduced. METHODS A Phase II study of the combination of cisplatin plus amifostine was conducted in patients with progressive metastatic breast carcinoma who had received one, but not more than one, chemotherapy regimen for metastatic disease. Patients received amifostine, 910 mg/m2 intravenously over 15 minutes. After completion of the amifostine infusion, cisplatin 120 mg/m2 was administered over 30 minutes. Intravenous hydration and mannitol was administered before and after cisplatin. Treatment was administered every 3 weeks until disease progression. RESULTS Forty-four patients were enrolled in the study of which 7 (16%) were ineligible. A median of 2 cycles of therapy was administered to the 37 eligible patients. Six partial responses were observed for an overall response rate of 16%. Most patients (57%) stopped treatment because of disease progression. Neurologic toxicity was reported in 52% of patients. Seven different life-threatening toxicities were observed in patients while receiving treatment. CONCLUSIONS The combination of cisplatin and amifostine in this study resulted in an overall response rate of 16%. Neither a tumor-protective effect nor reduced toxicity to normal tissues was observed with the addition of amifostine to cisplatin in this trial.

Abstract
The use of primary or neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced breast cancer, including those patients with inflammatory breast cancer, is well established. The use of primary chemotherapy has also been investigated in patients with operable breast cancer. The potential benefit of using primary chemotherapy is the opportunity to administer systemic therapy at an earlier timepoint, where it may be more effective against microscopic disease. In addition, primary chemotherapy for patients with operable breast cancer may also result in higher rates of breast conservation, axillary nodal downstaging, and potential improvement in patient outcome. A variety of different chemotherapy drugs have been evaluated in the primary chemotherapy setting. One of the most common approaches is to use an anthracycline-based regimen for 4 or more cycles of treatment before considering definitive local therapy. Although high tumor response rates have been reported using anthracycline-based regimens, the fraction of patients actually attaining a pathologic complete response has remained small (less than 20%). With the introduction of new chemotherapy drugs, such as docetaxel, which is associated with a very high tumor response rate in metastatic disease, a natural evolution of clinical investigation is to use docetaxel in the neoadjuvant or primary chemotherapy setting. Some of the recent trials that have evaluated single-agent docetaxel, docetaxel-based chemotherapy combinations, and novel sequencing strategies that include docetaxel in the neoadjuvant setting are reviewed. The results from these trials clearly suggest that docetaxel-containing treatment strategies can be considered a standard in the primary chemotherapy setting

Abstract
Tamoxifen (Nolvadex), a selective estrogen-receptor modulator, or SERM, is currently the endocrine therapy of choice for all stages of hormone-responsive breast cancer. Only tamoxifen has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to reduce the incidence of breast cancer in high-risk women. Despite tamoxifen's antiestrogenic effects in breast tissue, it exhibits paradoxical estrogenic effects in other tissues in the body. These effects result in the maintenance of bone mineral density, but a three- to fourfold increase in endometrial cancer in postmenopausal women. Additionally, tamoxifen can result in troublesome hot flashes and serious thromboembolic events. For this reason, current research is focusing on new agents that may maintain the beneficial effects of tamoxifen while reducing its adverse effects. Raloxifene (Evista) is another SERM, approved for the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and now being compared with tamoxifen in an ongoing breast cancer prevention trial. Like tamoxifen, raloxifene is associated with hot flashes and thromboembolic events, but its association with the risk of endometrial cancer is unknown. A number of new SERMs are in preclinical or clinical development in an attempt to improve upon the safety profile of tamoxifen. Additionally, selective aromatase inhibitors are being examined in the early breast cancer setting.

Abstract
New treatment strategies for advanced breast cancer have focused on both the development of new molecular targets in breast cancer cells, as well as improving the therapeutic index of presently available therapy. The development of capecitabine (Xeloda), a new oral fluoropyrimidine, is an example of a chemotherapy drug that has single-agent activity in heavily pretreated patients with advanced breast cancer, with the added convenience of good oral bioavailability. Capecitabine is an excellent treatment option for patients who require symptom palliation and who prefer oral medications. The discussion that follows reviews the clinical data on the use of capecitabine in advanced breast cancer.

Abstract
The therapeutic options for patients with noninvasive or invasive breast cancer are complex and varied. In many situations, the patient and physician have the responsibility to jointly explore and ultimately select the most appropriate option from among the available alternatives. With rare exception, the evaluation, treatment, and follow-up recommendations contained within these guidelines were based largely on the results of past and present clinical trials. However, there is not a single clinical situation in which the treatment of breast cancer has been optimized with respect to either maximizing cure or minimizing toxicity and disfigurement. Therefore, patient and physician participation in prospective clinical trials allows patients not only to receive state-of-the-art cancer treatment but also to contribute to the improvement of treatment of future patients.
