Introduction: In addition to clinical trials, real-world data is needed to verify the effectiveness of the CDK 4/6 inhibitor palbociclib. The primary aim was to examine real-world variation in treatment modification strategies for neutropenia and its relation to progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary aim was to assess if there is a gap between real-world and clinical trial outcomes. Materials and Methods: In this multicenter, retrospective observational cohort study 229 patients were analyzed who started palbociclib and fulvestrant as second- or later-line therapy for HR-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer in the Santeon hospital group in the Netherlands between September 2016 and December 2019. Data were manually retrieved from patients’ electronic medical records. PFS was examined using the Kaplan-Meier method to compare neutropenia-related treatment modification strategies within the first three months after neutropenia grade 3 – 4 occurred, as well as patients’ eligibility to have participated in the PALOMA-3 clinical trial or not. Results: Even though treatment modification strategies differed from those in PALOMA-3 (dose interruptions: 26 vs 54%, cycle delays: 54 vs 36%, and dose reductions: 39 vs 34%), these did not influence PFS. Patients who were PALOMA-3 ineligible experienced a shorter median PFS than those who were eligible (10.2 vs. 14.1 months; HR 1.52; 95% CI 1.12 – 2.07). An overall longer median PFS was found compared to PALOMA-3 (11.6 vs. 9.5 months; HR 0.70; 95% CI 0.54 – 0.90). Conclusion: This study suggests no impact of neutropenia-related treatment modifications on PFS and confirms inferior outcomes outside clinical trial eligibility. |
