Popis: 1005 Background: Evidence-based treatments (tx) for metastatic, HER2+ BCBM are limited. We previously found a central nervous system (CNS) objective response rate (ORR) of 8% (95% CI 2-22%) for the irreversible, EGFR/HER2-targeted kinase inhibitor, neratinib. To enhance CNS activity, we evaluated the combination of neratinib + capecitabine in a subsequent cohort, and report results here. Methods: Pts with measurable BCBM (≥ 1 cm in longest dimension) and no prior lapatinib or capecitabine were eligible. All but 3 had CNS progression after local CNS tx. During 21 day cycles, pts received capecitabine 750 mg/m2 twice daily x 14 days followed by 7 days off + neratinib 240 mg orally once daily. Loperamide prophylaxis (16 mg total daily) was recommended during cycle 1. Brain MRI and non-CNS imaging were repeated every 2 cycles until 18 wks, then every 3 cycles. The primary endpoint was composite CNS ORR, requiring all of the following: ≥50% reduction in volumetric sum of target CNS lesions (central review, VORR), no progression of non-target or non-CNS lesions, no new lesions, no escalating steroids, and no progressive neurologic signs/symptoms. We used a two-stage design with hypotheses ORR 15% and 35% (error rates 5% and 20%), responses in ≥5/19 pts to enter 2ndstage; responses in ≥9/35 [26%] pts to be promising. Results: 39 pts enrolled between 4/2014-11/2016 (2 withdrew before tx, 37 analyzed); median age 51, median prior metastatic lines 2 (range 0-6), 65% had prior WBRT. As of 11/15/16, 23 (62%) patients are alive and 7 remain on protocol tx; median number of cycles initiated = 5 (range 1-26). 18 women (49%) had a VORR (95% CI 32-66%, neurologic exams not yet available on all pts). Overall 12-month survival is 63% (95% CI 43%-77%); 4/7 pts still on protocol therapy have not yet reached 6 cycles. No pts had grade 4 toxicity; 18 (49%) had grade 3 toxicity, with diarrhea most common (32%), and 6 pts discontinued tx for toxicity. Conclusions: The combination of neratinib and capecitabine is active for BCBM with VORR in nearly half of pts, supporting further development of the regimen for BCBM. Updated results will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT01494662.
