RBC2LCN lectin as a potential probe of early-stage HER2-positive breast carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The recombinant N-terminal domain of BC2L-C lectin (rBC2LCN) is useful for detecting not only human pluripotent stem cells but also some cancers. However, the cancer types and stages that can be detected by rBC2LCN remain unclear. In this study, we identified the human breast carcinoma subtypes and stages that can be detected by rBC2LCN. Compared with rBC2LCN-negative breast carcinoma cell lines, the rBC2LCN-positive cells expressed higher levels of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and epithelial marker genes. Importantly, rBC2LCN histochemical staining of human breast carcinoma tissues demonstrated the utility of rBC2LCN in detecting breast carcinoma types that express HER2 and have not spread much in the early phase of growth. We conclude that rBC2LCN may have potential as a detection probe and a drug delivery vehicle to identify and treat early-stage HER2-positive breast carcinoma.

Perioperative HER2 targeted treatment in early stage HER2-positive breast cancer.

Project description:Although human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer was associated with poor prognosis, it has been changed after the development of trastuzumab. There has been great progress in perioperative HER2-targeting treatment, and investigations of several novel drugs and their combinations are ongoing. Adjuvant trastuzumab with or without pertuzumab for 1 year in combination with concomitant chemotherapy has become a standard treatment in high-risk node-negative tumors or node-positive HER2-positive early breast cancer patients without residual disease or who have not received neoadjuvant treatment. For low-risk HER2-positive early breast cancer patients, adjuvant paclitaxel and 1-year trastuzumab are possible alternatives. For residual disease after neoadjuvant treatment, adjuvant trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) for 14 cycles is a standard treatment. Non-anthracycline chemotherapy with dual anti-HER2 targeting of trastuzumab and pertuzumab represents one of the preferred neoadjuvant regimens to achieve higher pathologic complete response (pCR) rates and better clinical outcomes. Further research is needed to develop and validate potential biomarkers to predict pCR, which could help escalate or de-escalate anti-HER2 therapy. Trials incorporating novel agents such as T-DM1, trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), and immune checkpoint inhibitors and trying to de-escalate treatments in neoadjuvant setting are ongoing. In the future, tailored treatments such as no adjuvant therapy, various HER2-directed therapies alone with chemotherapy, combinations of various HER2-directed therapies and chemotherapy, addition of immune checkpoint inhibitors, and omission of surgery will be individualized in HER2-positive early breast cancer patients.

Towards personalized treatment for early stage HER2-positive breast cancer.

Project description:Advances in HER2-targeted therapies have improved the survival of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. The standard-of-care treatment for localized disease has been chemotherapy and 1 year of adjuvant HER2-targeted therapy, typically with the anti-HER2 antibody trastuzumab. Despite the effectiveness of this treatment, disease relapse occurs in a subset of patients; thus, focus has been placed on escalating treatment by either combining different HER2-targeted agents or extending the duration of HER2-targeted therapy. Indeed, dual HER2-targeted therapies and extended-duration anti-HER2 therapy, as well as adjuvant therapy with the anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate T-DM1, have all been approved for clinical use. Emerging evidence suggests, however, that some patients do not derive sufficient benefit from these additional therapies to offset the associated toxicities and/or costs. Similarly, the universal use of chemotherapy might not benefit all patients, and treatment de-escalation through omission of chemotherapy has shown promise in clinical trials and is currently being explored further. The future of precision medicine should therefore involve tailoring of therapy based on the genetics and biology of each tumour and the clinical characteristics of each patient. Predictive biomarkers that enable the identification of patients who will benefit from either escalated or de-escalated treatment will be crucial to this approach. In this Review, we summarize the available HER2-targeted agents and associated mechanisms of resistance, and describe the current therapeutic landscape of early stage HER2-positive breast cancer, focusing on strategies for treatment escalation or de-escalation.

Emerging treatments for HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer: focus on neratinib.

Project description:Over the last decades, a better understanding of breast cancer heterogeneity provided tools for a biologically based personalization of anticancer treatments. In particular, the overexpression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) by tumor cells provided a specific target in these HER2-positive tumors. The development of the monoclonal antibody trastuzumab, and its approval in 1998 for the treatment of patients with metastatic disease, radically changed the natural history of this aggressive subtype of breast cancer. These findings provided strong support for the continuous research in targeting the HER2 pathway and implementing the development of new anti-HER2 targeted agents. Besides trastuzumab, a series of other anti-HER2 agents have been developed and are currently being explored for the treatment of breast cancer patients, including those diagnosed with early-stage disease. Among these agents, neratinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor that irreversibly inhibits HER1, HER2, and HER4 at the intracellular level, has shown promising results, including when administered to patients previously exposed to trastuzumab-based treatment. This article aims to review the available data on the role of the HER2 pathway in breast cancer and on the different targeted agents that have been studied or are currently under development for the treatment of patients with early-stage HER2-positive disease with a particular focus on neratinib.

PREDICT underestimates survival of patients with HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer.

Project description:The prognostic performance of PREDICT in patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer (EBC) treated in the modern era with effective chemotherapy and anti-HER2 targeted therapies is unclear. Therefore, we investigated its prognostic performance using data extracted from ALTTO, a phase III trial evaluating adjuvant lapatinib ± trastuzumab vs. trastuzumab alone in patients with HER2-positive EBC. Our analysis included 2794 patients. After a median follow-up of 6.0 years (IQR, 5.8-6.7), 182 deaths were observed. Overall, PREDICT underestimated 5-year OS by 6.7% (95% CI, 5.8-7.6): observed 5-year OS was 94.7% vs. predicted 88.0%. The underestimation was consistent across all subgroups, including those according to the type of anti HER2-therapy. The highest absolute differences were observed for patients with hormone receptor negative-disease, nodal involvement, and large tumor size (13.0%, 15.8%, and 15.3%, respectively). AUC under the ROC curve was 73.7% (95% CI 69.7-77.8) in the overall population, ranging between 61.7% and 77.7% across the analyzed subgroups. In conclusion, our analysis showed that PREDICT highly underestimated OS in HER2-positive EBC. Hence, it should be used with caution to give prognostic estimation to HER2-positive EBC patients treated in the modern era with effective chemotherapy and anti-HER2 targeted therapies.

Src, a potential target for overcoming trastuzumab resistance in HER2-positive breast carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundSrc is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in signalling and crosstalk between growth-promoting pathways. We aim to investigate the relationship of active Src in response to trastuzumab of HER2-positive breast carcinomas.MethodsWe selected 278 HER2-positive breast cancer patients with (n=154) and without (n=124) trastuzumab treatment. We performed immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded tissue microarrays of active Src and several proteins involved in the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, PIK3CA mutational analysis and in vitro studies (SKBR3 and BT474 cancer cells). The results were correlated with clinicopathological factors and patients' outcome.ResultsIncreased pSrc-Y416 was demonstrated in trastuzumab-resistant cells and in 37.8% of tumours that correlated positively with tumour size, necrosis, mitosis, metastasis to the central nervous system, p53 overexpression and MAPK activation but inversely with EGFR and p27. Univariate analyses showed an association of increased active Src with shorter survival in patients at early stage with HER2/hormone receptor-negative tumours treated with trastuzumab.ConclusionsSrc activation participates in trastuzumab mechanisms of resistance and indicates poor prognosis, mainly in HER2/hormone receptor-negative breast cancer. Therefore, blocking this axis may be beneficial in those patients.

Cost-effectiveness of adjuvant paclitaxel and trastuzumab for early-stage node-negative, HER2-positive breast cancer.

Project description:Objectives: Adjuvant paclitaxel and trastuzumab has been shown to be an effective regimen with low risk of cancer recurrence and treatment-related toxicities in early-stage node-negative, HER2-positive breast cancer. We investigated the cost-effectiveness of this regimen.Methods: A Markov-based microsimulation model with six health states is used to simulate four adjuvant therapy options for women with early-stage node-negative, HER2-positive breast cancer at different age groups. The four treatment arms are 1) adjuvant paclitaxel and trastuzumab (TH), 2) doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel and trastuzumab (ACTH), 3) docetaxel, carboplatin and trastuzumab (TCH), and 4) no adjuvant trastuzumab (NT). Data from randomized trials were used to estimate treatment efficacy. Societal perspective was used in this cost-effectiveness analysis. Costs were measured in 2016 US dollars (US$) and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) was used for health outcomes. Sensitivity analyses were performed to evaluate the impact of uncertainty in parameter estimation.Results: We found that 40-year-old women undergoing TH treatment would have an average of 16.17 QALYs for the cost of $178,650 when lifetime horizon is used. Compared to NT, TH has incremental cost-effectiveness ratios ranged from $10,584 (ages 40-49) to $84,981 (age 80+) per additional QALYs. The sensitivity analysis showed that TH is cheaper and leads to higher QALYs compared to both ACTH and TCH for all age groups and time horizons.Conclusions: TH is cost-effective for all age groups in the base case scenario and in the sensitivity analysis. In order to reduce the parameter uncertainty, clinical trials with longer follow-up times are needed.

Deescalating Adjuvant Trastuzumab in HER2-Positive Early-Stage Breast Cancer: A Systemic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Project description:BackgroundOne year of adjuvant trastuzumab in combination with chemotherapy is the standard of care in early-stage human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. Existing data on shortening trastuzumab treatment show conflicting results.MethodsA search of PubMed and abstracts from key conferences identified randomized trials that compared abbreviated trastuzumab therapy to 1 year of treatment in early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted for disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Subgroup analyses evaluated the effect of nodal involvement, estrogen receptor expression, and the duration of abbreviated trastuzumab (9-12 weeks vs 6 months). Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals were computed for prespecified cardiotoxicity events including cardiac dysfunction and congestive heart failure. P values were two-sided.ResultsAnalysis included six trials comprising 11 603 patients. Shorter trastuzumab treatment was associated with worse DFS (HR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.05 to 1.25, P = .002) and OS (HR = 1.15, 95% CI = 1.02 to 1.29. P = .02). The effect on DFS was not influenced by estrogen receptor status (P for the subgroup difference = .23), nodal involvement (P = .44), or the different duration of trastuzumab in the experimental arm (P = .09). Shorter trastuzumab treatment was associated with lower odds of cardiac dysfunction (OR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.55 to 0.81, P < .001) and congestive heart failure (OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.50 to 0.86, P = .003).ConclusionsCompared with 1 year, shorter duration of adjuvant trastuzumab is associated with statistically significantly worse DFS and OS despite favorable cardiotoxicity profile. One year of targeted HER2 treatment should remain the standard adjuvant treatment in early-stage HER2-positive disease with appropriate cardiac monitoring.
