Abstract Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is a second-line standard therapy for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer. Evidence regarding post–T-DM1 treatments is currently lacking. We evaluated the effectiveness of post–T-DM1 drug therapy in patients with HER2-positive, unresectable and/or metastatic breast cancer. Methods In this multicenter, retrospective, observational study, real-world clinical data of female patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who had a history of T-DM1 treatment were consecutively collected from five sites in Japan. We investigated the effectiveness of post–T-DM1 therapy by evaluating the real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS), time to treatment failure (TTF), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and clinical benefit rate (CBR). Tumor response was assessed by investigators according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.1) guidelines. Subgroup and exploratory analyses according to background factors were also undertaken. Results Of the 205 patients who received T-DM1 treatment between 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2018, 128 were included in this study. Among the 128 patients analyzed, 105 (82%) patients received anti-HER2 therapy and 23 (18%) patients received regimens without anti-HER2 therapy. Median (95% confidence interval [CI]) rwPFS, TTF, and OS were 5.7 (4.8–6.9) months, 5.6 (4.6–6.4) months, and 22.8 (18.2–32.4) months, respectively. CBR and ORR (95% CI) were 48% (38.8–56.7) and 23% (15.1–31.4), respectively. Cox-regression analysis showed that an ECOG PS score of 0, a HER2 immunohistochemistry score of 3+, recurrent type, ≥12 month duration of T-DM1 therapy, and anti-HER2 therapy were independent variables for rwPFS. An exploratory subgroup analysis of regimens after T-DM1 showed that those with anti-HER2 therapy had a median rwPFS of 6.3 and those without anti-HER2 therapy had a median rwPFS of 4.8 months. Conclusions In the real-world setting in Japan, several post–T-DM1 regimens for patients with unresectable and/or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, including continuation of anti-HER2 therapy, showed some effectiveness; however, this effectiveness was insufficient. Novel therapeutic options are still needed for further improvement of PFS and OS in later treatment settings. Trial registration UMIN000038296; registered on 15 October 2019.

e13021 Background: Palbociclib (PA) has been approved for HR+/HER2–advanced/metastatic breast cancer (mBC) in combination with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) or fulvestrant for more than 6 years. Regardless of the labeled recommended starting dose of 125mg/day, some patients initiate palbociclib at lower doses in routine practice. This study described real-world starting dose, patient characteristics, and effectiveness outcomes of first line PA+ AI for mBC in the US clinical setting. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of Flatiron Health’s nationwide longitudinal electronic health records, which came from over 280 cancer clinics representing more than 2.2 million actively treated cancer patients in the US. Between February 2015 and September 2018, 813 HR+/HER2– mBC women initiated PA+AI as first-line therapy and had ≥ 3 months of potential follow-up. Patients were followed from start of PA+AI to December 2018, death, or last visit, whichever came first. Real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) was defined as the time from the start of PA+AI to death or disease progression. Real-world tumor response (rwTR) was assessed based on the treating clinician’s assessment of radiologic evidence for change in burden of disease over the course of treatment. Multivariate analyses were performed to adjust for demographic and clinical characteristics. Results: Of 813 eligible patients, 68.3% were white, median age was 65.0 years, and 42.9% had visceral disease (lung and/or liver). Median duration of follow-up was 21.0 months. 805 patients had records of PA starting dose, with 125mg and 75/100mg/day being 86.5% and 13.5%, respectively. Patients who started at 75/100mg/day were more likely to be ≥75 years than those who started at 125mg/day (38.5% vs 17.1%). Other baseline and disease characteristics were generally evenly distributed. Patients who started at 125mg/day had longer median rwPFS (27.8 vs 18.6 months, adjusted HR=0.74, 95%CI=0.52-1.05) and higher rwTR (54.0% vs. 40.4%) than those patients who started 100/75mg/day (adjusted OR=1.76, 95%CI=1.13-2.74). Table presents results in detail. Conclusions: Most patients in this study initiated palbociclib at 125mg/day and dose adjustment was similar regardless of starting dose. These real-world findings may support initiation of palbociclib at a dose of 125mg/day in combination with AI for the first-line treatment of HR+/HER2- mBC. [Table: see text]

Abstract Purpose In MONARCH 1 (NCT02102490), single-agent abemaciclib demonstrated promising efficacy activity and tolerability in a population of heavily pretreated women with refractory HR+, HER2− metastatic breast cancer (MBC). To help interpret these results and put in clinical context, we compared overall survival (OS) and duration of therapy (DoT) between MONARCH 1 and a real-world single-agent chemotherapy cohort. Methods The real-world chemotherapy cohort was created from a Flatiron Health electronic health records-derived database based on key eligibility criteria from MONARCH 1. The chemotherapies included in the cohort were single-agent capecitabine, gemcitabine, eribulin, or vinorelbine. Results were adjusted for baseline demographics and clinical differences using Mahalanobis distance matching (primary analysis) and entropy balancing (sensitivity analysis). OS and DoT were analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression. Results A real-world single-agent chemotherapy cohort (n = 281) with eligibility criteria similar to the MONARCH 1 population (n = 132) was identified. The MONARCH 1 (n = 108) cohort was matched to the real-world chemotherapy cohort (n = 108). Median OS was 22.3 months in the abemaciclib arm versus 13.6 months in the matched real-world chemotherapy cohort with an estimated hazard ratio (HR) of 0.54. The median DoT was 4.1 months in MONARCH 1 compared to 2.9 months in the real-world chemotherapy cohort with HR of 0.76. Conclusions This study demonstrates an approach to create a real-world chemotherapy cohort suitable to serve as a comparator for trial data. These exploratory results suggest a survival advantage and place the benefit of abemaciclib monotherapy in clinical context.

Aim: To describe real-world treatment patterns/outcomes among patients with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Materials & methods: Real-world treatments and overall survival (OS) were evaluated among adult women diagnosed with HER2+ MBC, with and without brain metastases (BMs), between June 1, 2012 and May 31, 2018 using electronic medical records from the Definitive Oncology Dataset. Results: Among 372 patients, 69% initiated first-line trastuzumab plus pertuzumab-based therapy; many therapy combinations were utilized in the second- to fourth-line. During follow-up (median 24.8 months), 18% of patients died (22% with and 16% without BMs). Mean OS was shortest among patients with BMs at MBC diagnosis in the third- and fourth-line. Conclusion: OS was poor, and no clear standard of care was observed among patients with HER2+ MBC progressing on trastuzumab-based therapies.

e13035 Background: EMPOWER trial demonstrated the benefit of eribulin administrated post CD4/6i in patients (pts) with HR+ HER2-negative (HR+HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). There are several important limitations to this trial: > 60% of pts were stage IV at the time of treatment initiation, eribulin used in late lines (2L only in 30% pts) and follow-up data were immature. Current study aimed to provide additional data on the real-world effectiveness and safety of eribulin monotherapy in this setting. Methods: Observation study of eribulin monotherapy in standard regimen enrolled 54 pts (median age 56; range 29-79 years) with HR+ HER2- MBC received at least one dose of eribulin post CDK 4/6i in metastatic settings; 24% pts had de novo metastatic BC, 76% - recurrent BC; 77% received palbociclib, 21% ribociclib, 2% both drugs; 49% pts received CDK4/6i with fulvestrant and 51% with AI. CDK4/6i was used: 49% pts in 1L, 36% in 2L, 16% in 3L. Median DOR of CDK4/6i treatment was 9.07 months (range 2-38). 94% pts received anthracyclines and taxanes, eribulin was used in 2L in 60%, 30% in 3L, 8% in 4L, 2% in 5L. The most common sites of metastases (Mts) were bones (78%), liver (73%), lung (56%) and brain (8%); visceral Mts were seen in 90% pts. Median follow-up – 11,5 months (range 3-36). Results: Median cycles of eribulin therapy was 10,5 (range 1-44); objective response rate was seen in 24%, stabilization - 67%, progression - in 9%. Median PFS was 10.0 months, there were no significant differences in the different subgroups (visceral/no visceral; recurrent/de novo BC; age; CDK4/6i as 1L vs 2L, fulvestrant vs AI), p > 0,05. Median PFS was higher in pts with lung Mts vs non-lung (24 vs 9,1 months, p = 0.056). Most common AEs all grades were neutropenia (26%), anemia (9%), asthenia (9%), polyneuropathy (11.1%). AE did not affect the effectiveness of eribulin (p = 0.648). Dose reduction was in 19% pts and did not affect the effectiveness of eribulin (p = 0.612). At median follow-up of 11.5 months, 92.5% of patients still alive. Conclusions: As post-CDK4/6i therapy, eribulin in HR+HER2- MBC pts was effective and well tolerated, regardless of age, line of CDK4/6, CDK 4/6i combination partner. Patients with metastasis to the lung have better mPFS. Results in this real-world population of pts with HR+HER2- MBC were consistent with the EMPOWER study, and support administration of eribulin in 2-3 lines as an effective option for post-CD4/6i pts.
