Real-life clinical pattern, management, and survival in Thai patients with early-stage or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:To characterize the clinical pattern and evaluate real-life practices in the management of patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in Thailand. METHODS:In this multicenter, prospective, observational cohort, females (aged ?18 years) with histologically and immunohistochemically confirmed TNBC were enrolled. Patient data was collected at four study visits-an inclusion visit (for enrollment), and three subsequent follow-up visits at 12±1, 24±1, and 36±1 months after completion of first day of any planned chemotherapy. RESULTS:Of the 293 enrolled patients, 262 (89.4%) had early-stage TNBC (Stage I: 46 patients, Stage II: 151 patients, and Stage III: 65 patients) and 31 (10.6%) had metastatic TNBC (mTNBC). Chemotherapy was prescribed to 95.4% of the early-stage patients and to 100.0% of the mTNBC patients; most commonly as anthracycline-based in combination with cyclophosphamide and other agents. Patients' performance status and consensus guidelines were the major factors affecting choice of treatment. In early-stage patients, median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) had not been reached for Stage I and II patients, and were calculated to be 37.0 months and 40.0 months, respectively, in Stage III patients. In mTNBC patients, progression-free survival (PFS) and OS were found to be 10.0 months and 14.0 months, respectively. In Stage III patients, anthracycline-based regimens were found to be associated with increase in DFS (p = 0.0181) and OS (p = 0.0027) compared to non-anthracycline-based regimens. In mTNBC patients, non-taxane-based regimens were associated with an increase in PFS (p = 0.0025). The 3-year survival rates in early-stage and mTNBC patients were 85.0% and 21.0%, respectively. CONCLUSION:Clinical management of TNBC in Thailand follows the general guidelines for treatment of TNBC. However, prognosis and survival outcomes are suboptimal, especially in progressive disease. This study is the first assessment in the existing practices in which the results could pave to way to improve the treatment outcome of TNBC in Thailand.

Project description:Various multigene predictors of breast cancer clinical outcome have been commercialized, but proved to be prognostic only for hormone receptor (HR) subsets overexpressing estrogen or progesterone receptors. Hormone receptor negative (HRneg) breast cancers, particularly those lacking HER2/ErbB2 overexpression and known as triple-negative (Tneg) cases, are heterogeneous and generally aggressive breast cancer subsets in need of prognostic subclassification, since most early stage HRneg and Tneg breast cancer patients are cured with conservative treatment yet invariably receive aggressive adjuvant chemotherapy.An unbiased search for genes predictive of distant metastatic relapse was undertaken using a training cohort of 199 node-negative, adjuvant treatment naive HRneg (including 154 Tneg) breast cancer cases curated from three public microarray datasets. Prognostic gene candidates were subsequently validated using a different cohort of 75 node-negative, adjuvant naive HRneg cases curated from three additional datasets. The HRneg/Tneg gene signature was prognostically compared with eight other previously reported gene signatures, and evaluated for cancer network associations by two commercial pathway analysis programs.A novel set of 14 prognostic gene candidates were identified as outcome predictors: CXCL13, CLIC5, RGS4, RPS28, RFX7, EXOC7, HAPLN1, ZNF3, SSX3, HRBL, PRRG3, ABO, PRTN3, MATN1. A composite HRneg/Tneg gene signature index proved more accurate than any individual candidate gene or other reported multigene predictors in identifying cases likely to remain free of metastatic relapse. Significant positive correlations between the HRneg/Tneg index and three independent immune-related signatures (STAT1, IFN, and IR) were observed, as were consistent negative associations between the three immune-related signatures and five other proliferation module-containing signatures (MS-14, ONCO-RS, GGI, CSR/wound and NKI-70). Network analysis identified 8 genes within the HRneg/Tneg signature as being functionally linked to immune/inflammatory chemokine regulation.A multigene HRneg/Tneg signature linked to immune/inflammatory cytokine regulation was identified from pooled expression microarray data and shown to be superior to other reported gene signatures in predicting the metastatic outcome of early stage and conservatively managed HRneg and Tneg breast cancer. Further validation of this prognostic signature may lead to new therapeutic insights and spare many newly diagnosed breast cancer patients the need for aggressive adjuvant chemotherapy.

Project description:Patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer have a poor prognosis. Sacituzumab govitecan (IMMU-132) is an antibody-drug conjugate that contains the irinotecan active metabolite, SN-38, linked to a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting trophoblast cell surface antigen 2, which is overexpressed in many solid tumors. In a basket design phase I/II study, sacituzumab govitecan demonstrated promising single-agent therapeutic activity in multiple cancer cohorts, leading to accelerated approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (TRODELVY) for the treatment of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who had received at least two prior therapies in the metastatic setting. Recently, results of the phase III trial, ASCENT, were confirmatory. There is limited available information on the adverse event management with sacituzumab govitecan needed to maximize the dose and duration of effective therapy while maintaining patient quality of life. This review summarizes the clinical development and the practical management of patients receiving sacituzumab govitecan. Sacituzumab govitecan has a well-defined and manageable toxicity profile, and rapid recognition and appropriate early and proactive management will allow clinicians to optimize sacituzumab govitecan treatment for patients. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Sacituzumab govitecan (TRODELVY) is a novel antibody-drug conjugate composed of the active metabolite of irinotecan (SN-38) conjugated to a monoclonal antibody targeting trophoblast cell surface antigen 2, an epithelial cell surface antigen overexpressed in many cancers. Because of the rapid approval of sacituzumab govitecan, there is limited available information on adverse event (AE) management with this agent. As such, this article reviews the clinical development of the drug, the AE profile, and provides recommendations regarding AE management to help optimize therapy with sacituzumab govitecan.
