Case presented by Dr Morganstein (Prof Van Cutsem)
• 78 yo woman with Stage IV GE adenocarcinoma found in 1/2010 – mets to liver, bone, nodes
– Carboplatin/irinotecan x 2 cycles progressive somnolence hemorrhagic brain mets = resected
• 4/2010: HER2-positive (IHC 3+, FISH amplified = 6.9)
– FOLFOX + trastuzumab PET/CT 4 mos later = CR and PS improved significantly
– Neurotoxicity d/c oxaliplatin on 5-FU/LV/trast
• Recent PET/CT = near CR, mild activity at GE jnx

HER2-positive (IHC3+ or FISH+), inoperable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic GE junction or gastric adenocarcinoma
ToGA: Trial Schema
FCFluoropyrimidine (F) (5-FU or capecitabine at investigator discretion) + Cisplatin (C)
R
FC + Trastuzumab (T)
Primary Analysis: N = 584
5-FU = 800 mg/m2/day continuous infusion d1-5 q3wks x 6Capecitabine = 1,000 mg/m2 bid d1-14 q3wks x 6Cisplatin = 80 mg/m2 q3wks x 6Trastuzumab = 8 mg/kg loading dose followed by 6 mg/kg q3wks until PD

Comparison of HER2 Testing in Breast and Gastric/GEJ Cancers
Breast Cancer Gastric/GE Junction Cancer
IHC Membranous Staining Pattern
3+ requires full circumferential staining pattern
3+ score allowed for cases with loss of apical membrane staining
Required Percent of Membranous Staining
ASCO – CAP Guidelines: 30%Trastuzumab Package Insert: 10%
Biopsies: no percentage required. Any cell cluster with membranous staining is HER2+Resections: 10%
Heterogeneity of HER2 Positivity
Well-described; judged as moderate, can influence HER2 test results especially when core biopsies are assessed
More severe than for breast cancer; especially important for endoscopic biopsies
