Popis: Background: Anthracycline and taxane-based chemotherapy is the standard treatment for high-risk breast cancer. However, conventional anthracyclines are not commonly used in elderly patients or those patients prone to cardiotoxicity and there is a potential risk leaving them undertreated. Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) has comparable efficacy, but significantly less cardiotoxicity than conventional anthracyclines. We conducted a phase II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of a neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NC) based on PLD and paclitaxel (PTX) in this group of patients. The pathological complete response, breast conservative surgery (BCS) and safety data at a 35-month follow-up were published (Gil-Gil et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat 2015). Here we present the final analysis of 5-year overall survival (OS) and 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and cardiac safety after 60 months of follow-up. Methods: Fifty patients with stage II (48%) and III (52%) breast cancer (seven cases were T4d) and with at least one risk factor for developing cardiotoxicity were included. NC schedule: PLD 35 mg/m2 plus cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 every 4 weeks for four cycles, followed by 80 mg/m2 weekly PTX for 12. Median age was 73 years old (84% were older than 65 years). Forty-eight (96%) of tumors were triple negative (TN). Secondary objectives included 5-year DFS, 5year OS and cardiac safety measured by a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), electrocardiogram (ECG) anda cardiac questionnaire performed every 3 months during the first year, every 6 months year 2-3 and every 12 months year 4-5 of follow-up. Results: Forty-eight patients (96%) completed the 4 cycles of PLD plus CPM, while only 26 patients (52%) could complete the 12 weeks of PTX. Forty-six patients (92%) underwent surgery. After surgery: 27 patients received radiotherapy, 2 letrozole and 1 trastuzumab. The 5-year OS was 56% (95% CI 41.2-68.4) and the 5-year DFS was 54.4% [95% CI: 38.3-67.9].No significant decrease in LVEF was seen (mean baseline LVEF was 66.6 (52-86) and mean LVEF after 60 months was 66 (54.5-73). Four patients (8%) developed cardiotoxicity (in 2 cases G3). There were 5 non-cancer deaths (10%): 3 during treatment (all in patients > 80 years: a sudden death one month after surgery, a haemorrhagic stroke 30 days after completing chemotherapy and a non-neutropenic pneumonia); and 2 during follow-up (1 Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and 1 intestinal ischemia). Conclusions: PLD followed by PTX as NC was feasible in a fragile population of patients who were not candidates for conventional doxorubicin. The 5 year DFS and 5 year OS in elderly patients with bulky TN tumors were similar tothe reported in the literature. This regimen could be an option for the neoadjuvant treatment of cardiotoxicity-prone patients or elderly patients who present high-risk breast cancer.
