Popis: Introduction: The prognostic and predictive utility of pretreatment serum activin A (TGF-B superfamily ligand) was correlated with the response of first-line metastatic breast cancer patients (MBC) in the phase 3 randomized trial of letrozole vs. tamoxifen. Methods: 555 ER+ first-line MBC patients had pretreatment serum available for activin A ELISA (R&D Systems). Clinical outcomes were analyzed using Cox proportional hazards modeling. Actin A levels were analyzed using continuous and categorical (median cutpoint) pretreatment serum activin A levels. A pretreatment serum activin A analysis was performed within the normal (not elevated, Results: Serum activin A had a median of 971 pg/ml and an interquartile range of 623 and 1751 pg/ml. In the total population with available serum (n=555), patients with higher serum activin A (> median) had significantly reduced objective response rate (ORR)(17.33% vs 34.6%, Odds Ratio (OR)=0.4; p In the total population with available serum (n=555), multivariate analysis for TTP revealed that high serum activin A was a significant adverse prognostic factor (HR=1.46, p Outcome (Serum activin A by median cutpoint, high vs. low)TTPOSCohortPatientsHRpHRpTotal Population5551.69 Conclusions: Patients with high pretreatment serum activin A levels had a significantly reduced ORR, CBR, TTP and OS compared to patients with low serum activin A. The results were similar within the letrozole or tamoxifen treatment arms, and within the serum HER2 not-elevated subgroups. High pretreatment serum activin A level is associated with relative resistance to hormone therapy in first-line metastatic breast cancer.
