Update on neoadjuvant treatment of breast cancer
«IS PATHOLOGIC COMPLETE RESPONSE STILL A
GOOD SURROGATE OF SURVIVAL ? »
Complete histological response varies according to tumoral type
Luminal A (N=572) Luminal B (HER2-) (N=211) (N=281)
Luminal B (HER2+) HER2+ (non-luminal) (N=178)

Prognostic impact of pathologic complete response (pCR) on disease-free survival

pCR rate after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is associated with better outcome
only for patients with: HER2-positive/hormone receptor negative or triple-negative and some more aggressive HER2-negative/hormone receptor positive tumours.
Update HER2+++ breast cancers What’s new ?
Unresolved questions
• Noah study (and other phase II studies) have shown that Traztuzumab should be added to chemotherapy in neoadjuvant setting
• Questions :
– Traztuzumab and Anthracyclins combination ?
– Precocity of Traztuzumab use ?
Trastuzumab and anthracyclin
• Joint use of anthracyclin and Trastuzumab in neoadjuvant studies in HER2+++ patients, acceptable toxicity …
• This combination is doubtfull as for its innocuousness
• Retrospective analysis of 583 patients who received anthracyclins and Traztuzumab (3 neoadjuvant trials)
– Cardiac toxicity rate (linear variable )
– Increase cardiac toxicity (OR = 1,95, 95% CI 1,16-3,29)
– 44 cardiac events in the group with T vs 28 in the group without T
Bozovic-Spasojevic ILancet Oncol. 2011 Mar;12(3):209-11
What is the optimal time for Traztuzumab initiation ?
• There are no direct data answering to this question as there are no studies comparing Traztuzumab in neoadjuvant vs adjuvant setting (except Remagus study….)
• In metastatic setting, arguments in favor of an early use (1)
• In adjuvant setting (NCCTG) in favor of an early use
With a 6 years follow up DFS (2)
– AC-P (12 weeks) = 71,9 %
– AC-P (12 weeks then )-T = 80,1 %
– AC-PT (concommitant) = 84,2 %

HER2 signaling pathway
• Anti HER2 treatment are monoclonal antibodies against extracellular portion (traztuzumab) and small molecules which inhibit tyrosin kinase (lapatinib).

Pertuzumab :inhibits HER2 dimerisation Monoclonal anti body against a different target of HER2-

Pertuzumab is a humanised monoclonal antibody , first of a new class : HER2 dimerisation inhibitor
With the inhibition of HER2 dimerisation, pertuzumab inhibits HER 2 signaling patways spark off proliferation and survival of cellular cells .

Conclusion
These data show that combining anti hER2 +++ therapies and transduction pathways inhibitors
could bypass resistance mecanisms and improve patients outcome without too much toxicity but
a cost ………………..
Biomarkers which predict who benefit to the addition of pertuzumab to Traztuzumab

Bevacizumab in neoadjuvant treatment for breast cancer
Interest in triple negative cancers ?
Biology of triple negative breast cancers identification of potential targets
• Triple negative breast cancers come from myoepithelial cells
CK5-6, EGFR (1)
• Kinase Dysregulation
– Loss of PTEN (2)
– Activation of Akt pathway
– Amplification of FGF2, VEGFA, AR

Comparison of the two studies
• pCR increase in the entire population low….
• pCR increase in TN tumors not found in NSABP study.
• BUT
– Smaller population (490 ptes)
– Inflammatory and T4 tumors in the Geparquinto not in the NSABP trial
– Anthracyclins given before in the Geparquinto
– Docetaxel dosage superior in the Geparquinto during 2 cycles
– Beva given for 2 cycles with antracyclins
– Only patients with objective response in the gepar received the Beva
Translational studies could targeted the patients who will answer « maybe » to Bevazusimab
Conclusion
• The neoadjuvant setting gives the unique opportunity to get insights in breast cancer biology
• It allows:
– to evaluate new therapies
– to find predictive factors for better individualization of the treatment.
