Jame Abraham, MD, FACP, an Editor on The Journal of Community and Supportive Oncology, shares his top selections in breast cancer from this year's annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology in Chicago.
1001 Efficacy of sacituzumab govitecan (anti-Trop-2-SN-38 antibody-drug conjugate) for treatment-refractory hormone-receptor positive (HR+)/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC) (Aditya Bardia et al). The study drug was well tolerated and produced objective responses in this heavily pretreated population, with an overall response rate of 31% at 6 months and a clinical benefit rate of 48%.
LBA1 TAILORx: Phase III trial of chemoendocrine therapy versus endocrine therapy alone in hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative, node-negative breast cancer and an intermediate prognosis 21-gene recurrence score (Joseph A Sparano et al)
506 PERSEPHONE: 6 versus 12 months (m) of adjuvant trastuzumab in patients (pts) with HER2 positive (+) early breast cancer (EBC): randomised phase 3 non-inferiority trial with definitive 4-year (yr) disease-free survival (DFS) results (Helena Margaret Earl et al). Six months of trastuzumab was found to be noninferior to 12 months, although cardiac events were reduced in the 6-month group compared with the 12-month group (4% vs 8% of patients, respectively, ended treatment because of cardiotoxicity).
In addition, Dr David Henry, the Editor-in-Chief of JCSO, also selected:
500 Adjuvant denosumab in early breast cancer: disease-free survival analysis of postmenopausal patients in the ABCSG-18 trial (Michael Gnant et al). In this double-blind placebo controlled trial, disease-free survival in the denosumab group was 89% at 5 years and 80% at 8 years, compared with 87% and 77%, respectively, for placebo.
