Immunotherapy Plus Chemo Improves Metastatic TNBC Outcomes
February 14th 2020The frontline combination of pembrolizumab (Keytruda) and chemotherapy significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared with chemotherapy alone in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) whose tumors expressed PD-L1 (combined positive score [CPS] ≥10), meeting one of the dual primary endpoints of the phase III KEYNOTE-355 trial.
Unmet Needs Remain in TNBC Treatment
February 3rd 2020Despite the emergence of PARP inhibitors, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), and immunotherapy in the treatment of patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), more work is needed to propel further progress, according to Kevin Kalinsky, MD, MS.
Ovarian Suppression Plus AI Treatment Can Have Major Adverse Events
January 25th 2020Combining ovarian suppression and an aromatase inhibitor is an efficacious treatment method for premenopausal women with breast cancer. However, the regimen (which is given long-term) can cause some major adverse events, explained Dawn L. Hershman, MD, MS, professor of medicine and epidemiology at the Columbia University Irving Medical Center.
Radiation's Role Shifts in Breast Cancer
January 19th 2020The role of radiation therapy, specifically with elective nodal irradiation (ENI), has evolved over the past several years, said He James Zhu, MD, PhD, adding that the technique should be performed in patients with breast cancer on an individualized basis.
FDA Accepts BLA for Eflapegrastim for Chemo-Induced Neutropenia
January 4th 2020The FDA has accepted a biologics license application (BLA) to review eflapegrastim (Rolontis) for the management of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, according to Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, the developer of the novel long-acting granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF).
FDA Accepts BLA for Sacituzumab Govitecanto Treat TNBC
December 30th 2019The FDA has accepted a biologics license application (BLA) for sacituzumab govitecan as a treatment for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have received at least 2 prior therapies for metastatic disease, according to a statement from the company developing the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), Immunomedics.
FDA Grants Tucatinib Breakthrough Therapy Designation Breast Cancer Subset
December 20th 2019The FDA has granted tucatinib a breakthrough therapy designation for use in combination with trastuzumab (Herceptin) and capecitabine (Xeloda) for the treatment of patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, including patients with brain metastases, who had prior trastuzumab, pertuzumab (Perjeta), and ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1; Kadcyla).
Breast Cancer Outcomes Can Be Predicted by Residual Cancer Burden
December 16th 2019Residual cancer burden (RCB) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been shown to be an accurate long-term predictor of disease recurrence and survival across all breast cancer subtypes, according to data from a large meta-analysis presented at the 2019 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium.
Neoadjuvant Durvalumab Is Promising for TNBC Treatment
December 14th 2019A durvalumab (Imfinzi)-based neoadjuvant regimen induced a pathologic complete response (pCR) rate of 44% in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), according to results of a phase I/II study presented in a poster at the 2019 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium.
Palbociclib Shows OS Benefit in Frontline HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
December 13th 2019Real-world clinical practice results for frontline palbociclib (Ibrance) indicate that the positive progression-free survival (PFS) data previously reported with the CDK4/6 inhibitor in the pivotal PALOMA-2 trial would likely translate to an overall survival (OS) benefit in patients with HR-positive/HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer.
Overcoming AI Resistance in ESR1-Mutant Breast Cancer
December 7th 2019Resistance to aromatase inhibitors (AIs) is a growing concern in patients with advanced hormone receptor (HR)–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer, said Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, who added that although fulvestrant (Faslodex) has shown some activity in patients who develop ESR1 mutations, more effective treatment options are needed.
