Abstract
Introduction. The presence of a germinal BRCA mutation occurs in 3–4% of all breast cancer (BC) patients with various biological subtypes, but significantly with a high frequency in patients with a triple negative biological subtype (in 10–20% of cases). For the treatment of patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer associated with gBRCA mutation, the effectiveness of biologically targeted drugs from the group of PARP inhibitors (olaparib and talazoparib) has been proven.
Purpose. Comparison of the results of our experience with the use of talazoparib in patients with HER2-gBRCA+ + mBC with the data of the EMBRACA registration study.
Materials and methods. As part of the multicenter compassionate use program (CUP) with the support of Pfizer, 24 patients with HER2-negative metastatic gBRCA-associated mutation metastatic breast cancer (HER2-gBRCA+ breast cancer) received biologically targeted therapy with the PARP inhibitor talazoparib at a standard oral dose of 1 mg per day for vital indications . The average age of patients with HER2-gBRCAm+ breast cancer was 50 years (29–90 years).
Results. Objective response (OR) was registered in 29% of cases, disease control (OR+stabilization) – in 71% of cases. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.5 months (95% CI [3–10]). Objective response, disease control, and median PFS were evaluated depending on the biological subtype, the number of lines of previous therapy, and the presence of platinum-containing agents in the anamnesis.
Objective response and disease control were evaluated depending on the biological subtype: in patients with ER+HER2-mBC versus patients with triple negative subtype, OR was 33% vs 22%, and disease control was 83% vs 61%, respectively. In the presence of < 3 vs ≥ 3 lines of therapy for metastatic disease in the anamnesis, OR was 31% vs 12.5%, disease control – 75% vs 50% of cases, respectively. In the presence or absence of platinum-containing agents in the anamnesis, OR was observed in 22% vs 33% of cases, and disease control – 67% vs 67%, respectively.
In patients with the luminal subtype versus patients with the triple negative subtype, the PFS was 9 months vs 5 months, respectively (HR = 0.705; 95% CI [0.231–2.147]; p = 0.5208). Median PFS in the presence of <3 vs ≥3 lines of therapy for metastatic disease in the anamnesis was 9 months vs 4 months, respectively (HR = 4,216; 95% CI [1,334–13,327]; p = 0.0056). In the presence or absence of platinum-containing agents in previous lines of therapy 5 months vs 9.5 months, respectively (HR =1.484; 95% CI [0.48–4.582]; p = 0.4750).
During the treatment with talazoparib adverse events of the 3rd-4th grades were observed in 5 patients (20,8%). These include moderate and severe anemia in 3 patients (12.5%), thrombocytopenia in 1 patient (4%), and neutropenia in 1 patient (4%). The majority of patients (79,5%), which received talazoparib, did not require dose adjustment. The need to reduce the dose to 0.75 mg was noted in 3 patients (12.5%), to 0.5 mg – in 2 patients (8%). Hemotransfusion was performed in 3 patients. For effective therapy safety management regular monitoring of blood parameters is necessary.
Conclusion. Thus, targeted therapy with talazoparib is an effective treatment option for HER2-gBRCA+ mBC.
