Abstract
Background: Hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2- early-stage breast cancer (EBC) is a heterogenous disease. Identification of better clinical and molecular biomarkers is essential to guide optimal therapy for each patient.
Patients and methods: We analyzed rates of pathologic complete response (pCR) and distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS) for patients with HR+/HER2- EBC in 8 neoadjuvant arms in the I-SPY2 trial by clinical/molecular features: age, stage, histology, percentage ER positivity, ER/PR status, MammaPrint (MP)-High1 (0 to -0.57) versus MP-High2 (<-0.57), BluePrint (BP)-Luminal-type versus BP-Basal-type, and ImPrint immune signature. We quantified the clinical/molecular heterogeneity, assessed overlap among these biomarkers, and evaluated associations with pCR and DRFS.
Results: 379 patients with HR+/HER2- EBC were included in this analysis, with an observed pCR rate of 17% across treatment arms. pCR rates were higher in patients with stage II versus III disease (21% versus 9%, p=0.0013), ductal versus lobular histology (19% versus 11%, p=0.049), lower %ER positivity (≤66% versus >66%) (35% versus 9%, p=3.4E-09), MP-High2 versus MP-High1 disease (31% versus 11%, p=1.1E-05), BP-Basal-type versus BP-Luminal-type disease (34% versus 10%, p=1.62E-07), and ImPrint positive versus negative disease (38% versus 10%, p=1.64E-09). Patients with lower %ER were more likely to have MP-High2 and BP-Basal-type disease. At a median follow-up of 4.8 years, patients who achieved pCR had excellent outcomes irrespective of clinical/molecular features. Among patients who did not achieve pCR, DRFS events were more frequent in patients with MP-High2 and BP-Basal-type disease than those with MP-High1 and BP-Luminal-type disease.
Conclusion: Among patients with high molecular-risk HR+/HER2- EBC, the MP-High2, BP-Basal-type, and ImPrint positive signatures identified a partially overlapping subset of patients who were more likely to achieve pCR in response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy +/- targeted agents or immunotherapy compared to patients with MP-High1, BP-Luminal-type, and ImPrint negative disease. I-SPY2.2 is incorporating the use of these biomarkers to molecularly define specific patient populations and optimize treatment selection.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Oncology, the official journal of the European Society for Medical Oncology and the Japanese Society of Medical Oncology, offers rapid and efficient peer-reviewed publications on innovative cancer treatments and translational research in oncology and precision medicine.
The journal primarily focuses on areas such as systemic anticancer therapy, with a specific emphasis on molecular targeted agents and new immune therapies. We also welcome randomized trials, including negative results, as well as top-level guidelines. Additionally, we encourage submissions in emerging fields that are crucial to personalized medicine, such as molecular pathology, bioinformatics, modern statistics, and biotechnologies. Manuscripts related to radiotherapy, surgery, and pediatrics will be considered if they demonstrate a clear interaction with any of the aforementioned fields or if they present groundbreaking findings.
Our international editorial board comprises renowned experts who are leaders in their respective fields. Through Annals of Oncology, we strive to provide the most effective communication on the dynamic and ever-evolving global oncology landscape.
