1 Breast Cancer Survivorship Michelle Melisko MD Assistant Clinical Professor UCSF Breast Care Center
2 Survivors Who are they? An estimated 210,000 women were diagnosed with breast cancer in the year 2007 Many of these women will be rendered free of cancer, but will need ongoing disease specific care and surveillance The estimated number of breast cancer survivors in the year 2003 was 2.3 million
3 Survivorship Issues What is the impact on health of being a longterm cancer survivor? What is the cost of being a survivor physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially? Is our healthcare system prepared to handle the growing number of people diagnosed with cancer, and the treatment and follow up needed for quality of life?
4 Differences in breast cancer follow up care - A world perspective In many countries, access to subspecialists is limited Primary care physicians and other physician extenders play a bigger role in health care in general
5 GREAT BRITAIN In a randomized trial of 296 women with a history of breast cancer, transfer of routine oncology follow-up care to a family physician did not result in an increase in the time to diagnosis of recurrence Patient satisfaction was greater Health service costs were less Anxiety and health related quality of life were unaffected
6 CANADA 968 early-stage breast cancer patients who had completed adjuvant treatment were randomized to follow up in a cancer center or with their own family physician No differences in number of recurrences, deaths, recurrence related serious clinical events No difference in patient reported healthrelated quality of life Breast cancer follow up care is routinely provided by primary care MDs in UK and Canada
7 SWEDEN A study compared nurse-led follow-up vs. physician follow-up in 264 women with newly diagnosed Stage I or II breast cancer Patients completed QOL and satisfaction questionnaires at baseline and twice a year for 5 years There were no differences between the groups concerning time to recurrence or death Ratings of Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Satisfaction and Accessibility (SaaC) scales did not show any differences between the groups Levels of anxiety and depression were generally low and patient satisfaction was high This study supports that follow-up care with an experienced nurse professional is safe and effective
8 What do breast cancer survivors need? Comprehensive follow-up care Appropriate breast imaging and examination Symptom management, spiritual and emotional support Resources financial, emotional, informative and supportive More information about adopting and maintaining healthy lifestyles More research about the effects of treatment
9 Breast Cancer Follow Up: What to do and What NOT to do American Society of Clinical Oncology 2006 Update of the Breast Cancer Follow-Up and Management Guidelines in the Adjuvant Setting (JCO Nov : ) Routine labs, CT scans, bone scans not necessary or indicated American Society of Clinical Oncology 2007 Update of Recommendations for the Use of Tumor Markers in Breast (JCO Nov : ) TUMOR MARKERS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED
10 Breast Imaging Recommendations NCCN, ACSO, and ACS guidelines recommend follow up mammograms every 6-12 months for affected breast in the setting of breast conserving surgery Breast MRI only indicated for the following: Pts with equivocal mammographic and/or PE findings Pts presenting with malignant axillary adenopathy and unknown site of primary tumor Patient with extensive or locally advanced cancer undergoing chemotherapy Screening of women at increased ( 20% to 25%) lifetime risk Known BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation carrier Pt with first-degree relative with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation who has not had genetic testing themself Radiation therapy to the chest between the ages of yo Genetic disease such as Li-Fraumeni or Cowden syndrome or one of these syndromes in first-degree relatives Orel S, JCO Feb 2008
11 The spectrum of breast cancer treatments and possible complications 1. Surgery (Lumpectomy, mastectomy, SLND, full, ALND, reconstruction) 2. Chemotherapy 3. Radiation 4. Hormonal therapy (Aromatase Inhibitors and/or Tamoxifen) 5. Trastuzumab 1. Breast/chest wall pain, lymphedema 2. Cardiac issues/chf (only with anthracyclines, very rare), neuropathy (taxanes), premature menopause, leukemia (very rare) 3. Radiation pneumonitis, brachial plexopathy, scarring/fibrosis of breast tissue, angiosarcoma (very rare) 4. Hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, vaginal symptoms, joint pains 5. Cardiac issues/chf (Rare)
12 What medications breast cancer patients might be taking And what to worry about with these medications
13 Tamoxifen Tamoxifen has been shown to decrease disease recurrence and increase overall survival Remains the standard of care for pre-menopausal breast cancer patients Tamoxifen use has been associated with endometrial cancer and thromboembolism CYP2D6 pharmacogenetics varies and results in different levels of therapeutic efficacy EBCTG. Lancet ;351: (A); Johnston et al. Nat Rev Cancer. 2003;3: (B); 831(B); Knox et al. Presented at: American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting; June 2-6, ; Atlanta, Ga (A).
14 The Evolving Role of Adjuvant Hormonal Therapy AIs have been shown to decrease disease recurrence compared with tamoxifen Several regimens have been shown to be more effective than 5 years of tamoxifen alone 5 years of adjuvant AI therapy 2 to 3 years of tamoxifen, followed by 2 to 3 years of an AI 5 years of tamoxifen, followed by 5 years of AI Winer et al.

23 Bone Mineral Density
24 Aromatase Inhibitors and Bone Loss AI-induced estrogen ablation accelerates bone loss and augments fracture risk in postmenopausal women AI-induced bone loss more rapid than bone loss associated with postmenopausal status alone IV bisphosphonates may decrease AI-associated bone loss Z-FAST study evaluated 36-month safety and efficacy of upfront vs delayed IV ZA in decreasing AI-associated bone loss in postmenopausal women with early breast cancer Brufsky A, et al. SABCS Abstract 27.
25 Z-FAST: Upfront vs Delayed ZA Postmenopausal women with ER-positive or PgR-positive breast cancer (N = 602) Upfront ZA* 4 mg IV every 6 months + Letrozole 2.5 mg/day (n = 301) Delayed ZA* + Letrozole 2.5 mg/day (n = 301) *All patients treated with calcium and vitamin D. ZA initiated when T-score decreased to < -2 or clinical fracture occurs. Brufsky A, et al. SABCS Abstract 27.
26 Z-FAST: Change in BMD for Delayed vs Upfront ZA Change in BMD at 36 Mos (%) P <.0001 Lumbar Spine BMD Brufsky A, et al. SABCS Abstract 27. Upfront ZA Delayed ZA P <.0001 Total Hip BMD Lumbar spine and total hip BMD increased for patients on upfront ZA but decreased for patients on delayed ZA By 36 months, 62 (21%) patients in the delayed arm initiated ZA Trend toward less disease recurrence in upfront arm vs delayed arm 9 (3.5%) vs 16 (6.9%), respectively (P =.13)

52 Vaginal estrogens compared to Replens for vaginal dryness Open-label study comparing effects of Replens to a local estrogen therapy in the treatment of vaginal dryness symptoms 15 women evaluated in each treatment group during a 12-week period Replens was safe and effective alternative to estrogen vaginal cream Both therapies exhibited statistically significant increases in vaginal moisture, vaginal fluid volume, and vaginal elasticity with a return of the premenopausal ph state Nachtigall LE, Fert Steril 1994
53 Vaginal estrogen may be better than Replens for vaginal dryness?? 39 pt study compared Replens to Dienoestrol (Cilag), an estrogenic vaginal cream Replens was given 3x/wk during 12 wks of the study, while Dienoestrol was administered daily during the first 2 wks and then 3x/wk Vaginal dryness index, itching, irritation, dyspareunia, ph and safety were evaluated every week the first month and every month thereafter Both treatments had a significant increase on vaginal dryness index Hormonal compound was significantly better than Replens Itching, irritation and dyspareunia significantly decreased or disappeared with no difference between the treatments Bygdeman M, Swahn ML, Maturitas 1996.
54 Are vaginal estrogens safe in breast cancer patients? The jury is still out
55 Vaginal estradiol appears to be contraindicated in postmenopausal women on adjuvant aromatase inhibitors Serum estradiol, FSH, and LH levels were followed in 7 postmenopausal women using vaginal estrogen preparations while on AIs for breast cancer Serum was analysed for estradiol, FSH and LH at baseline then 2, 4, 7-10 and 12 weeks since commencement of vaginal estradiol Estradiol was measured on an assay specifically developed for measuring low levels in postmenopausal women Serum estradiol levels rose from baseline levels < or = 5 pmol/l consistent with AI therapy to a mean 72 pmol/l at 2 weeks By 4 weeks this had decreased to < 35 pmol/l in the majority (median 16 pmol/l) although significant further rises were seen in two women Vagifem significantly raised estradiol levels, at least in the short term This reverses the estradiol suppression achieved by aromatase inhibitors in women with breast cancer and is contraindicated Kendall et al, Annals Oncol 2006
56 Phase III Trial of Pilocarpine in Patients with Sjögren s Syndrome Main outcome related to oral and ocular dryness. A statistically significant decrease in vaginal dryness was also reported (p=0.02, 25% versus 14% reduction). Vivino et al. Arch Intern Med 159(2):174-81, 1999.
57 Oral pilocarpine to treat vaginal xerosis associated with chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea in pre-menopausal women Pilocarpine (5mg qid) for premenopausal women who had developed vaginal dryness after receiving cyclophosphamide Authors reported that all four of these participants experienced a marked clinical improvement in vaginal dryness Le Veque FG, Hendrix S. J Clin Oncol (ASCO Annual Meeting Proceedings, Abstract 8099); 22(14S):749, 2004.
58 Proposed Study Vaginal dryness Pilocarpine 5 mg QID Pilocarpine 5 mg BID Placebo BID or QID
59 Efficacy and Safety of Vaginal Testosterone for Atrophic Vaginitis in Breast Cancer Patients on AIs: a Pilot Study Objective: Determine the efficacy and safety of topical testosterone in this patient population in patients with AI-related atrophic vaginitis. Results: Six postmenopausal patients taking AIs for early breast cancer who had symptoms of atrophic vaginitis were given vaginal testosterone 300 µg daily for 28 days. Estradiol levels remained low, and testosterone level changes were small after treatment. Self-reported symptom scores (0 = none, 3 = severe) improved for 5 women: Vaginal dryness (2.5 pretreatment to 0.5 posttreatment) Dyspareunia (2.2 pretreatment to 0.83 posttreatment) Itching/irritation (1.0 pretreatment to 0.83 posttreatment) Average vaginal ph decreased from 4.83 to 4.5. Safety: 1 patient with vaginal rash and 1 patient with headache and pruritis Witherby, SABCS 2007, Abstract 6086
60 UCSF Trial - A Phase II Study of Vaginal Testosterone Cream vs. the ESTRING for Vaginal Dryness or Decreased Libido in Early Breast Cancer Patients Treated with AIs Objectives: To evaluate the safety, based on serial estradiol levels, of intravaginal testosterone cream or the ESTRING administered for relief of vaginal dryness and/or decreased libido related to AI therapy in early breast cancer patients To document the systemic estradiol and testosterone levels in early breast cancer patients on AIs being treated with intravaginal testosterone cream or the ESTRING
61 Major Inclusion Criteria Stage I-III breast cancer on adjuvant AI Must have started AI at least 60 days prior to enrolling Postmenopausal status No period for >12 months If patient has been rendered post-menopausal by adjuvant chemotherapy but has had a period within the past 12 months, post-menopausal levels of serum estradiol must be documented on two lab tests at least 3 months apart
62 Major Exclusion criteria History of radiation to the vaginal area Concurrent treatment with any type of oral, injectable or topical form of estrogen or androgen therapy Initiation of topical moisturizers or herbal or alternative medicines for vaginal dryness Use of vaginal hormonal products (rings, inserts, creams, gels) containing estrogens or androgens within the past 30 days History of sexual dysfunction prior to diagnosis of breast cancer
63 TREATMENT / EVALUATION Patients will be randomized to a 12 week course of either: Testosterone Cream 1% micronized in velvachol gm of cream vaginally each night for two weeks, then 3 times a week for total of 12 weeks of treatment OR Estring 2mg ring inserted vaginally once every 12 weeks Serum estradiol at baseline, week 4 and week 12 Serum testosterone at baseline, week 4 and week 12 in testosterone cream arm Repeat estradiol at week 6-8 if week 4 estradiol is elevated outside post-menopausal range or >10pg/ml above baseline
64 Takeaway Messages Breast cancer patients face many long term complications and symptoms from their treatment Many breast cancer patients will be cured of their disease Not every symptom is a recurrence of breast cancer!! Before you order a scan or test, consider contacting patient s treating oncologist whenever possible to discuss what test would be best and what the implications will be
