4 Survival with HER2+ Metastatic Disease Tolaney S, ASCO 2018

5 What is the optimal regimen in 1 st line regimen?

6 Swain SM, et al. NEJM 2015 Pertuzumab-Trastuzumab-Docetaxel the SOC in 1 st line HER2+ MBC...in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, the addition of pertuzumab to trastuzumab and docetaxel, as compared with the addition of placebo, significantly increased the median overall survival to 56.5 months, an improvement of 15.7 months over survival in the control group mos 40.8 mos 15.7 mos

7 Pertuzumab-Trastuzumab-Docetaxel in a real world setting...there is some concern and debate about whether results obtained in clinical trials can be applied tout court to clinical practice. (...) The most relevant differences between our population and patients enrolled in the CLEOPATRA trial was the presence of brain metastases, the prevalence of HR positivity, visceral vs non-visceral pattern of metastasization and the prevalence of (neo)adjuvant pretreatment with HT and trastuzumab. Importantly, as shown by our survival analyses, these differences did not seem to affect efficacy. (...) Notably, mpfs was unexpectedly much greater in the RL setting than in the CLEOPATRA trial (27.8 vs 18.5 months, respectively)... De Placido S, et al. Breast 2018

8 Pertuzumab: Key Clinical Questions? What is the efficacy of pertuzumab in trastuzumab pretreated real life populations? Can pertuzumab use be delayed until second line setting? Should pertuzumab be given beyond progression? NO, but an important question to test in clinical trial(s)

9 Baselga J, et al. NEJM 2012 What is the efficacy of pertuzumab in trastuzumab-pretreated real life populations? Baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in the CLEOPATRA trial Only a minor fraction of patients enrolled in the CLEOPATRA trial were previously exposed to Trastuzumab Are the results of the trial reproducible in real practice?

10 Ricciardi GRR & Adamo V, et al. ASCO 2017 Safety and Efficacy of the combination of Pertuzumab plus Trastuzumab plus Docetaxel for HER2-positive MBC in pretreated patients with Trastuzumab in neo/adjuvant setting: a real-life study Population 35 Median age (range) 50 (20-71) ECOG PS, median (range) 0 (0-1) Menopausal Status, n (%) Pre-menopausal 16 (45.7) Post-menopausal 19 (54.3) Surgery, n (%) Mastectomy 17 (48.6) Quadrantectomy 18 (51.4) Lymphadenectomy n (%) 27 (77.1) Sentinel Node Biopsy n (%) 7 (20) Subtypes, n (%) Luminal B 14 (40) HER2-enriched 21 (60) Metastatis sites (%) Lung 20% Lymph nodes 14.3% Liver 11.4% Median PFS 12 mos TRASTUZUMAB Neoadjuvant, n (%) 12 (34.3) Adjuvant, n (%) 28 (80) Median OS 15.2 mos Median FU 55.6 mos

11 Pertuzumab: Key Clinical Questions? What is the efficacy of pertuzumab in trastuzumab pretreated real life populations? Can pertuzumab use be delayed until second line setting? Should pertuzumab be given beyond progression? NO, but an important question to test in clinical trial(s)

12 Is there a role for Pertuzumab- Trastuzumab outside of 1 st line? Limitations: H/X not the SOC in 2 nd line Open label design No statistically-significant improvement in PFS Benefit in OS, but less than observed in the CLEOPATRA trial (HR 0.76 vs. 0.68) Urruticoechea A, et al. ASCO 2018

13 Pertuzumab: Key Clinical Questions? What is the efficacy of pertuzumab in trastuzumab pretreated real life populations? Can pertuzumab use be delayed until second line setting?e be delayed until second line setting? Should pertuzumab be given beyond progression? NO, but an important question to test in clinical trial(s)

14 What is the optimal regimen in 2 nd and other lines?

16 Verma S, et al. NEJM 2012; Die ras V, et al. Lancet Oncol 2017 T-DM1 vs. capecitabine plus lapatinib previously treated HER2-positive MBC: the EMILIA trial...t-dm1 significantly prolonged progression-free and overall survival with less toxicity than lapatinib plus capecitabine in patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer previously treated with trastuzumab and a taxane...

17 Questions regarding T-DM1 What is the efficacy of T-DM1 in pertuzumab pre-treated real life populations? Should T-DM1 only be used in the second line setting?

18 Fabi A, et al. Fut Oncol 2017 What is the efficacy of T-DM1 in pertuzumabpretreated real life populations? Overall response rate was 33.3% in patients with prior pertuzumab and 57.1% in the remaining subjects. Disease control rate was 47 and 43%, respectively, and clinical benefit rate was 43.3 and 71.1%, respectively. P + T: mpfs 5.0 months (95% CI: ); T only: mpfs 11.0 months (95% CI: ) Median progression-free survival was 5.0 months in patients with prior pertuzumab and 11.0 months in those without (hazard ratio: 2.02; 95% CI: ; p = 0.01). Patients treated with T-DM1 who previously received pertuzumab have poorer clinical outcomes compared with those receiving a trastuzumab-onlybased regimen in the first-line setting.

19 Questions regarding T-DM1 What is the efficacy of T-DM1 in pertuzumab pre-treated real life populations? Should T-DM1 only be used in the second line setting?

20 Perez EA, et al. JCO 2017 & ASCO 2017 Is there a role for T-DM1 in 1 st line HER2-positive MBC? T-H= T-DM1 = T-DM1 + P T-DM1 remains the SoC in 2 nd line Possible option for first line in pts unsuitable for TPH What would be the role of T- DM1 if P (APHINITY trial) will be moved in the adjuvant setting in high risk pts?

21 What is the role of lapatinib in the pertuzumab/t-dm1 era?

22 Lapatinib remains a therapeutic option for pts with HER2-positive MBC despite being previously treated with multiple anti-her2 therapies. 50% of pts obtained clinical benefit for over 6 mos with no significant toxicity Lapatinib shows a partial lack of cross-resistance with pertuzumab and T-DM1 thus further emphasizing the benefit of using beyond the 2 nd line setting 1. Of the 34 pts identified as the target cohort with prior pertuzumab and/or T-DM1 exposure, 29 were available for outcome analysis 2. In the comparison cohort (n= 536) who had received lapatinib without prior pertuzumab and/or T-DM1 exposure, 445 pts were available for outcome analysis Ba ez-vallecillo L, et al. SABCS 2016

37 Morikawa A, et al. Clin Breast Cancer 2018 HER2-positive Breast Cancer With Brain Metastases in the era of HER2-targeted therapy...significantly better survival from BM was noted for patients with higher performance status, fewer BM lesions, continued use of HER2- targeted therapy after BM diagnosis, and better controlled extracranial metastatic disease. Systemic Treatment anti-her2 play an important role especially in HER2+ patients: Median OS from BMs onset can now exceed 2 years.

58 Final Remarks Pertuzumab and T-DM1 led to improved outcomes with favorable toxicity in 1 st and 2 nd line HER2+ MBC, respectively, and are the preferred regimens in these settings; However, some important clinical questions (Pertuzumab in T-pretreated pts? Pertuzumab outside 1 st line? T-DM1 in pertzumab-pretreated pts?) are still open. Endocrine therapy + dual-blockade HER2 therapy is associated with significant improvement in PFS and can be considered for selected triple positive pts; In 3 rd and later lines of therapy (or where pertuzumab/tdm1 are not available), the addition of a HER2-directed agent improves outcomes compared to chemotherapy alone and thus should be continued whenever possible; Several different agents are under development in HER2-positive MBC, trying to overcome mechanisms of resistance to currently approved anti-her2 agents; For HER2-disease, Immunotherapy development still lagging behind due to effective anti-her2 therapies. The use of T biosimilars may reduce cancer care costs, with similar outcomes and safety profile to originator T.
