The changing role of Neo_Adjuvant treatment in eBC
Colomer et al Oncologist 2019; Cain et al Clin Oncol 2017; Bardia et al CCR focus 2013
• NA treatment has become a preferred option for eBC treatment based on proven efficacy vs adjuvant, research value and cost perspective
• Multidisciplinary Tumor Boards are crucial to ID candidates – Pathological evaluation standardization is needed
• ADVANTAGES of NA treatment: 1. Reduces tumor size which facilitates surgical
resectability higer BCS rates & it can eliminate axillary node mets that may be detected in SLNB after NA (surgery de-escalation)
2. Enables objective evaluation of treatment efficacy, allowing an in vivo test of cancer cells’ sensitivity to treatment (RD-guided treatment after NA)
3. Allows the design of CTs that offer advantages compared with the adjuvant setting (lower sample size, early results, biomarkers, new CT designs) (new drug development strattegies)
#SEOM20
Neo_Adjuvant treatment in eBC: response & prognosis
Cortazar et al Lancet 2014; Spring et al CCR 2020
• Cortazar et al pooled analysis (12 CTs; 11955 pts) pCR (ypT0 /is ypN0) after NACT associated with improved EFS and OS (individual level) but no established trial level correlation pCR and long-term outcomes
• Strongest association pCR and long-term outcome in aggressive tumor types: TNBC (EFS: HR 0.24) and HER2+HR- Tz treated (EFS: HR 0.15)
• Relationship 𝛥pCR and corresponding 𝛥EFS has not been well established at trial level
CTNeoBC analysis (2014) Comprehensive Meta-analysis (2020)
• 52 studies (27895 pts): 51.1% CTs, 42.8% retrospective studies; 6.1% single arm trials. Median FU for recurrence: 48 mo. Median FU for survival: 49.9 mo
• Pts who had pCR vs those with residual disease had significantly better EFS (HR 0.31), for TNBC (HR 0.18) and HER2+ (HR 0.32)
• Pts who had pCR vs those with residual disease had significantly better OS (HR 0.22)
• 5-year EFS in patients with pCR followed by adjuvant CT 86% vs pCR without additional adjuvant CT 88% pCR after NACT likely reflects tumor biology and suggests adjuvant CT could potentially be omitted in certain circumstances
Overall TNBC

The management of Residual Disease after NA treatment
• Comprehensive molecular analyses on the residual disease after NACT (combined NGS and digital RNA expression) identified diverse molecular lesions and pathway activation in the drug-resistant component of the tumor, which may mirror micro-metastases destined to recur
• Profiling of residual BC after NACT identifies i.e. DUSP4 deficiency (MAPK phosphatase) as a mechanism of drug resistance
• Data can guide biomarker-driven adjuvant studies targeting these micrometastases to improve the outcome of patients with TNBC who do not respond completely to NACT

What about NA treatment in HR+ HER2- BC? NET
Guerrero et la Cancer Discov; Cardoso et la Ann Oncol 2019; Thorton et al Ann Surg Oncol 2019
• NET emerges as an attractive option to optimize surgical outcomes: option for CT unfit/ineligible for surgery elderly pts (alternative options) biology driven designs to develop new targeted strategies in luminal BC
• Facts and open-questions: Patient selection: biology guided, post- vs premenopausal? Optimal NET regimen: IA > TAM and posible new combinations with targeted therapies (CDK4/6inh or PI3K /Akt/mTOR inh)? Treatment duration: pCR rates increase with treatment duration (4-8mo)? Evaluation of response: pCR limited value in ER+ disease, Ki 67 suppression/PEPI score?

Safety population: Patients who initiated palbociclib vs. patients who initiated ET only
PALLAS: Tolerability
• No new safety signals were identified with palbociclib + ET.
• No treatment-related deaths were observed.
• SAEs occurred in 351 (12·4%) on palbociclib + ET versus 220 (7·6%) on ET alone.
• The most common SAEs on palbociclib + ET were tissue infection, upper respiratory tract
infection, and pneumonia.
PALLAS: Exposure and Discontinuation
• Rates of palbociclib discontinuation were
closely monitored; active efforts including
outreach and education were ongoing
throughout the trial to reduce non-protocol
related discontinuation.
• At time of data cut-off:
– 725 (25·5%) were still receiving palbociclib
– 916 (32·3%) had completed planned protocol therapy
– 1199 (42·2%) had discontinued prematurely
PALLAS: Reasons for Discontinuation
• The majority of palbociclib early
discontinuation was related to
adverse events, for example,
persistent grade 3/4 neutropenia
despite dose reduction.
• The rate of early discontinuation of
adjuvant ET at 24 months was 6·9%,
with no significant difference between
arms.

Fig. 4 | Decision-making aid for clinical and genomic testing. The clinical treatment score at 5 years (CTS5) should be
calculated for all women upon completion of 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy. For the majority of women with a low
clinical risk score, endocrine therapy can be discontinued because extended therapy is very unlikely to benefit them. For
the majority of women with a high risk of recurrence, extended endocrine therapy up to 10 years is recommended if the
toxicity profile is not unfavourable. In both situations, genomic testing is unlikely to add further prognostic information
and is not recommended. Women with an intermediate clinical risk and those at borderline low–intermediate or high–
intermediate clinical risk should receive a genomic test to enable integrated clinical–genomic stratification of their risk
of late recurrence. Following genomic testing, the following scenarios are possible: discontinuation of endocrine therapy
for patients with a low risk of recurrence or recommendation of extended endocrine therapy for up to 10 years in
patients with a high risk. Women who remain at an intermediate level of risk should discuss toxicities and personal
preferences with their clinician. Of note, the role of genomic testing as a predictor of benefit from extended endocrine
therapy remains to be established in prospective studies. BCI, Breast Cancer Index.

Tailoring eBC treatment: from the ”add-on” to “de-escalation” strategies
TILs as a biomarker (TNBC): no CT
Could sTILs ID a favorable subgroup of early-stage TNBC with excellent prognosis, for whom adjuvant CT might not be necessary so could be de-escalated? (N=476 pts/4 institutions)
• Pts with sTILs ≥ 30% (29% pts) showed favorable outcomes irrespective of nodal status, suggesting a significant role of immune engagement for better survival
• sTILs ≥ 30% in p Stage I TNBC identified an excellent prognostic subgroup (5Y OSR: 98%), in whom absolute survival benefits of adjuvant CT could be minimal, with regards to associated risks and comorbidities
• Routine evaluation of sTILs should be considered for adequate prognostication and tailoring of adjuvant CT certainly in selective very low-stage early TNBC
• Pts <40 years, diagnosed with TanyN0M0 BC (1989-2000) selected from Netherlands Cancer Registry and no CT (N=481) PARADIGM study group
• Subsequent investigations to de-escalate systemic therapy in a subgroup of young TNBC patients may be warranted.

Tailoring eBC treatment: is there any chance to detect MRD?
Garcia Murillas et al JAMA Oncol 2019 & Sci Translational Med 2015; Ponde et al Nat Rev Clin Oncol 2019
• Personalized ctDNA assay based on digital PCR to track muts over time in pts with eBC could define the genetic events of MRD, and MRD sequencing predicted the genetic events of the subsequent metastatic relapse more accurately than sequencing of the primary BC
• Prospective validation (N=101 and 35.5 mo median FU) of molecular relapse detection Detection of ctDNA during FU associated with relapse (HR 25.2) Detection of ctDNA at diagnosis associated with RFS (HR 5.8) ctDNA detection had median lead time of 10.7 mo vs clinical relapse
(brain only mets less detected by ctDNA)

CONCLUSIONES Cambios en el manejo del CM precoz: perspectivas de futuro para esta
nueva época
⦿ El uso de tratamiento sistémico adyuvante ha impactado significativamente en la supervivencia de las pacientes con CM precoz en los últimos 40 años (estrategia aditiva), pero la escalada en los regímenes de tratamiento ha aumentado las toxicidades y el costo, el objetivo hoy se centra en optimizar el balance riesgo/beneficio para cada paciente (estrategia individualizada)
⦿ El conocimiento de la biología del CM aplicado a la enfermedad precoz esta ayudando a individualizar el tratamiento del CM pe. plataformas genómicas para definir la estrategia de terapia sistémica adyuvante en pacientes con CM RH+ HER2- ha permitido el “de-escalado” de QT en pacientes con CM de bajo riesgo (TailorX, MINDACT, PlanB)
⦿ Recientemente la inclusión de fármacos innovadores como la inmunoterapia en CMTN (NA) o inh CDK4/6 en CM luminal (adyuvancia) demuestra aportar beneficio en el contexto de estrategias de “escalado” terapéutico en enfermedad precoz para pacientes con CM de alto riesgo (IMpassion031, KN522, MonarchE)
⦿ El enfoque neoadyuvante se convierte en la estrategia preferida para subtipos con CMTN y HER2+ ofreciendo información pronóstica que puede ayudar a ajustar el tratamiento adyuvante posterior en función de la respuesta (CREATE-X, KATHERINE), permitiendo abordajes loco-regionales más conservadores, constituyendo una valiosa plataforma para el desarrollo de nuevas terapias
⦿ El análisis de biomarcadores en tejido/biopsia líquida (CTCs, ctDNA) aporta resultados esperanzadores en los distintos subtipos de CM como herramienta para la individualización del tratamiento (neo)adyuvante. Su validación implica adaptar el diseño de los ensayos clínicos (i.e.BRE18-334 PERSEVERE) y un importante esfuerzo de colaboración internacional para abordar poblaciones de pacientes cada vez más circunscritas
