San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium Cancer Therapy and Research Center at UT Health Science Center December 6 10, 2011 Summary and conclusions Results from TRYPHAENA indicate a low incidence of symptomatic and asymptomatic LVSD across all arms Concurrent administration of pertuzumab plus trastuzumab with epirubicin resulted in similar cardiac tolerability compared with sequential administration or the anthracyclinefree regimen Regardless of chemotherapy chosen, the combination of pertuzumab with trastuzumab in the neoadjuvant setting resulted in high pcr rates (57 66%) TRYPHAENA supports the ongoing APHINITY study, a Phase III trial to evaluate pertuzumab and trastuzumab plus standard chemotherapy in the adjuvant setting (poster: OT1-02-04) (NCT01358877) Copyrights for this presentation are held by the author/presenter.

Summary and conclusions CLEOPATRA met its primary endpoint and demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS (HR = 0.62) in patients with HER2-positive MBC Median PFS increased by 6.1 months from 12.4 to 18.5 months The PFS improvement was consistent across subgroups and supported by the secondary endpoints of ORR and OS (immature) The combination of pertuzumab and trastuzumab plus docetaxel increased rates of diarrhea, rash, mucosal inflammation, febrile neutropenia, and dry skin These adverse events were primarily grades 1 2, manageable, and occurred during docetaxel therapy There was no increase in cardiac adverse events or LVSD This new regimen may be practice-changing in HER2-positive first-line MBC

San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium Cancer Therapy and Research Center at UT Health Science Center December 6 10, 2011 Phase 2 Sample Size Determination Non-inferiority design intended to show that neratinib monotherapy was not inferior to L + C Assumption was for non-inferiority in terms of PFS, defined as a non-inferiority margin of 15% equivalent to retaining 50% of the benefit demonstrated for L + C over capecitabine monotherapy 1 A total of 163 PFS events were needed for analysis, given the following assumptions for sample size calculations Median PFS of 27.5 weeks for the L + C arm and 33.9 weeks for the neratinib arm (25% improvement in median PFS; true hazard ratio = 0.80) Enrollment rate of approximately 3 patients per week Design based on a 1-sided log-rank test Alpha = 0.1; power = 85%; 1-year dropout rate = 20% 47 1.

San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium Cancer Therapy and Research Center at UT Health Science Center December 6 10, 2011 Conclusions Neratinib did not demonstrate non-inferiority versus L + C in terms of PFS In addition, the antitumor activity of neratinib monotherapy in heavily pretreated patients with advanced or metastatic HER2+ BC was robust (ORR of 29%) Diarrhea was the most frequently reported adverse event, but was typically transient and manageable These findings support the continued development of neratinib as monotherapy and in combination with other agents for treatment of recurrent HER2+ BC 54 1.

Summary and Conclusions This is the first randomized study to evaluate an antibody-drug conjugate for HER2-positive MBC First-line treatment of HER2-positive MBC with T-DM1, compared with trastuzumab + docetaxel was associated with: A significant improvement in PFS (14.2 vs 9.2 mos; HR=0.594; P value=0.0353) A lower rate of grade 3 AEs (46.4% vs 89.4%) T-DM1 is being evaluated in phase III randomized clinical trials for HER2-positive MBC 71
CONCLUSIONES -Pertuzumab en asociación con trastuzumab incrementa significativamente la actividad de éste sin apenas añadir toxicidad -TDM-1 posee una gran actividad antitumoral en tumores HER2+ -El papel del lapatinib como adyuvancia tardía está pendiente de definir -El neratinib parece poseer una interesante actividad en cáncer de mama HER2+ -El bloqueo dual del receptor de HER2 se traduce de nuevo en un beneficio clínico
