Goals of Care in Advanced Breast Cancer Metastatic breast cancer is (generally) considered incurable The course of advanced breast cancer is variable Goals of treatment include: Prolongation of survival Palliation of symptoms Prevention of cancer-related complications Maintenance of quality of life

How do we define benefit in advanced breast cancer? Overall survival: How long a woman lives Progression-free survival: How long a woman lives without experiencing worsening of her cancer on a specific drug therapy Objective response rate: The proportion of women with measurable tumor shrinkage of at least 30% on a specific drug therapy Clinical benefit rate: The proportion of women with measurable tumor shrinkage or no tumor growth on a specific drug therapy Quality of life: How a woman manages day-to-day with her ongoing therapy; burden of symptoms from disease & treatment

Individualizing Therapies for Cancers Patients with the same diagnosis Standard therapy Therapies based on biomarkers

Important subsets of breast cancers defined by molecular markers ER+ All Breast Cancer HER2+ BRCA+ Take away: Breast cancer is not one disease Triple negative Germline BRCA1/2 status proving to be an important biomarker for treatment

BRCA1 / BRCA2 Positive Breast Cancer The Problem: Information from BRCA1/2 testing does NOT guide treatment decisions in 2015 Responses to standard chemotherapy drugs in carriers not well characterized PARP inhibitors shown to be highly active in advanced BRCA+ breast cancer, but no drugs FDA approved Many patients with hereditary predisposition do not know it High Grade

Current role of BRCA1/2 mutation testing Guides screening recommendations Guides surgical risk-reducing recommendations Does not guide treatment BRCA1/2 mutation-associated breast cancer continues to be treated systemically according to the same algorithm for the treatment of sporadic breast cancer

Chemotherapy

Platinum Cisplatin first approved by the FDA in 1978 Noted to have activity in metastatic breast cancer 1 Family of platinum salts bind directly to DNA Results in formation of DNA-platinum adducts and consequently intra- and inter-strand DNA crosslinks that impede cell division Recent renewed interest in investigating the role of platinum chemotherapy in breast cancer Hypothesis of greater susceptibility of TN and BRCA1/2 mutant BC to DNA damaging chemotherapeutic agents Limited data in metastatic disease; most important insights from neoadjuvant setting 1. Sledge, et al. JCO, 1988

N Engl J Med 2012; 366:2517-2519

Tumor mutational burden and immunogenicity Tumors are immunologically unique due to tumorspecific mutations Tumor-specific mutation represent only a fraction of the total number of mutations in the tumor These tumor specific mutations produce neoantigens Capable of recognition by the immune system

Prevalence of mutations across human cancer Alexandrov LB, et al. Nature. 2013;500(7463):415-21

Are BRCA1/2 tumors more immunogenic due to higher levels of mutations? BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation-associated tumors contain high levels of genome instability due to defects in normal DNA repair With increasing mutational burden, there is increased potential that the immune system will recognize a neoantigen in the tumor Could this increased burden of neoantigens render BRCA1/2 tumors more amenable to immunotherapies? No answers yet, but very hot topic Clinical trials to open soon

Immune overlap with BRCA1 mutations and genomic instability Recently reported study showed that 7/7 BRCA1 mutant tumors also expressed PD-L1 1 ~20% positive in unselected TNBC 2 Elevated PD-L1 expression in TNBC was significantly associated with DNA repair genes 1 Low expression of BRCA1 Low expression of FANCA CIBERSORT Immune Score significantly correlated with genomic instability 1.

Concluding Remarks Many exciting new agents are currently under investigation in advanced hereditary breast cancer The TNT trial demonstrated that carboplatin results in superior response rates and progression-free survival compared to docetaxel in BRCA1/2+ metastatic TNBC Practice changing!

Concluding Remarks Hope to see PARP inhibitors approved soon! New trials of PARP inhibitors targeting less frequent mutations associated with hereditary breast cancer will be interesting: PALB2, ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, etc. Immunotherapy approaches may prove particularly relevant for BRCA1/2 mutation carriers Urgently need clinical trials in this space
