Pathological Complete Response from Pyrotinib Combined with Trastuzumab, Paclitaxel and Cisplatin in a Postpartum Woman with HER2-Positive Locally Advanced Breast Cancer: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT: Background:Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is associated with aggressive disease and poor prognosis. Traditional HER2-targeted agents can improve clinical outcome and have played an essential role in therapy. Pyrotinib is a newly irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that is well developed for the treatment of HER2-positive advanced breast tumors. Case Presentation:A 37-year-old postpartum female was presented at a local hospital and was diagnosed with HER2-positive stage IIIB (cT4N1M0) invasive micropapillary adenocarcinoma in the left breast with left axillary metastatic lymph nodes. The patient failed to respond to two cycles of the doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide (AC) regimen but achieved clinical partial response (cPR) after 4 cycles of the combination of pyrotinib, trastuzumab, paclitaxel and cisplatin (PTPC) regimen according to radiologic assessments. Then, she underwent left-side modified radical mastectomy (MRM) and achieved pathologic complete response (pCR), as confirmed by postoperative pathology. The patient held on receiving 2 cycles of the targeted therapy plus chemotherapy with trastuzumab, paclitaxel plus cisplatin (TPC) and adjuvant radiation therapy but continued to receive targeted therapy with trastuzumab and pertuzumab during the 1-year follow-up period. There has been no clinical evidence of disease progression so far. Conclusion:Breast cancer overexpressing HER2 is a malignant tumor responsible for many cancer-related deaths. The combination of pyrotinib plus other targeted chemotherapy can dramatically improve the outcome of locally advanced disease.

Project description:BackgroundThe anti-tumor activity and acceptable tolerability of pyrotinib plus chemotherapy have been demonstrated in phase III trials in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive metastatic breast cancer (BC). In this study, we assessed the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant pyrotinib plus trastuzumab and albumin-bound paclitaxel in women with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive early or locally advanced BC.MethodsIn this single-arm exploratory phase II trial, patients with untreated human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive BC (stage IIA-IIIC) received pyrotinib 400 mg once daily, trastuzumab 4 mg/kg loading dose, followed by 2 mg/kg once a week, and albumin-bound paclitaxel 125 mg/m2 once a week for four 21-day cycles before surgery. The primary endpoint of the study was total pathological complete response (pCR) rate, defined as no microscopic invasive tumor remnants in the breast and axillary lymph nodes. The secondary endpoints were investigator-assessed objective response rate (ORR) and adverse event profiles.ResultsBetween May 17, 2019 and November 26, 2019, a total of 21 patients were enrolled. The total pCR rate was 57.1% (12/21), whereas 23.8% (5/21) and 19.0% (4/21) of patients had minimal and moderate residual disease (RD), respectively. The ORR reached 100% (21/21) at the end of the neoadjuvant therapy. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events were observed in 42.9% (9/21) of patients, including decreased neutrophil count [7 (33.3%)], diarrhoea [6 (28.6%)], decreased white blood cell count [5 (23.8%)], and vomiting [2 (9.5%)]. Adverse event-related dose reduction and interruption of pyrotinib occurred in 6 (28.6%) and 11 (52.4%) patients, respectively.ConclusionsIn women with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive early or locally advanced BC, neoadjuvant pyrotinib plus trastuzumab and albumin-bound paclitaxel effectively promoted total pCR rate with an acceptable safety profile (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04152057).

Project description:ObjectivePyrotinib and pertuzumab are effective treatment options for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (HER2+ MBC). Our study was to directly compare the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib plus trastuzumab (PyroH) and pertuzumab plus trastuzumab (HP) in patients with HER2+ MBC.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective examination of HER2+ MBC patients who received PyroH plus chemotherapy or HP plus chemotherapy between 2017 and 2022 at five institutions in China. Our primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).ResultsThis study involved 333 patients, among which 161 received PyroH and 172 received HP. The utilization of PyroH as a first-line therapy for MBC was more prevalent among older patients, those with a shorter duration of disease-free interval, or those who had previously been treated with trastuzumab. Although in the first-line advanced treatment HP cohort showed numerically longer PFS (median PFS: 14.46 vs. 22.90 months, p=0.057), in the second-line or later treatments, there was no significant difference in PFS between the PyroH and HP groups (median PFS: 8.67 vs. 7.92 months, p=0.286). Despite HP showing a longer PFS in the overall cohort (median PFS: 9.30 vs. 13.01 months, p=0.005), it did not serve as an independent predictor of PFS in the multivariate analysis (HR 1.134, 95% CI 0.710-1.811, p=0.598). Without taxane, PyroH demonstrated a longer PFS than HP (median PFS: 10.12 vs. 8.15 months, p=0.017). PyroH group displayed a numerically longer median PFS in patients with brain metastases compared to the HP group, though not statistically significant (median PFS: 9.03 vs. 8.15 months, p=0.976). PyroH had higher incidence of grade 3/4 diarrhea (34.3% vs. 3.0%) but similar overall adverse events.ConclusionIn conclusion, PyroH is comparable in second-line or later treatment and during brain metastasis, even having superior efficacy without taxane in real-world setting. Toxicities were tolerable in both groups. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT05572645).

Project description:BackgroundPyrotinib (an irreversible pan-ErbB inhibitor) plus capecitabine has survival benefits and acceptable tolerability in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. We further assessed addition of pyrotinib to trastuzumab and docetaxel in the neoadjuvant setting.MethodsIn this multicenter, double-blind, phase 3 study (PHEDRA), treatment-naive women with HER2-positive early or locally advanced breast cancer were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive four neoadjuvant cycles of oral pyrotinib or placebo (400 mg) once daily, plus intravenous trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose, followed by 6 mg/kg) and docetaxel (100 mg/m2) every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was the total pathological complete response (tpCR; ypT0/is and ypN0) rate per independent central review.ResultsBetween Jul 23, 2018, and Jan 8, 2021, 355 patients were randomly assigned, 178 to the pyrotinib group and 177 to the placebo group. The majority of patients completed four cycles of neoadjuvant treatment as planned (92.7% and 97.7% in the pyrotinib and placebo groups, respectively). The tpCR rate was 41.0% (95% CI 34.0 to 48.4) in the pyrotinib group compared with 22.0% (95% CI 16.6 to 28.7) in the placebo group (difference, 19.0% [95% CI 9.5 to 28.4]; one-sided P < 0.0001). The objective response rate per investigator was 91.6% (95% CI 86.6 to 94.8) in the pyrotinib group and 81.9% (95% CI 75.6 to 86.9) in the placebo group after the neoadjuvant treatment, resulting in an increase of 9.7% (95% CI 2.7 to 16.6). The most common grade 3 or worse adverse events were diarrhea (79 [44.4%] in the pyrotinib group and nine [5.1%] in the placebo group), neutropenia (33 [18.5%] and 36 [20.3%]), and decreased white blood cell count (29 [16.3%] and 24 [13.6%]). No deaths were reported during neoadjuvant treatment.ConclusionsThe primary endpoint of the study was met. Neoadjuvant pyrotinib, trastuzumab, and docetaxel significantly improved the tpCR rate compared with placebo, trastuzumab, and docetaxel, with manageable toxicity, providing a new option for HER2-positive early or locally advanced breast cancer.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03588091.
