Real-world clinical effectiveness and safety of olaparib monotherapy in HER2-negative gBRCA-mutated metastatic breast cancer: Phase IIIb LUCY interim analysis.
1087 Background: OlympiAD (NCT02000622) demonstrated the benefit of olaparib over standard of care in patients (pts) with HER2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and germline BRCA mutations (gBRCAm). LUCY (NCT03286842) aimed to provide additional data on the real-world effectiveness and safety of olaparib monotherapy in this setting. Methods: This Phase IIIb, open-label, single-arm study of olaparib 300 mg twice-daily, enrolled pts with HER2- gBRCAm MBC who had received a taxane and/or anthracycline in the (neo)adjuvant/metastatic setting, and ≤2 lines of chemotherapy for MBC. Hormone receptor-positive (HR+) pts had progressed on prior endocrine therapy (ET), and further ET was considered unsuitable. Primary endpoint: investigator-defined progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints: overall survival, time to first subsequent therapy or death (TFST), and investigator-assessed clinical response rate (CRR). The interim analysis was planned after 160 PFS events. Results: From Oct 2018-Sept 2019, 252 pts were enrolled (160 sites, 15 countries; mean age 46.2 [range 22-75] years; 73.4% ECOG PS 0). Median total treatment duration: 7.9 months (mo; range 0.2-20.0). Median PFS: 8.1 mo (95% confidence interval [CI] 6.9, 8.7; 166 events [65.9%]). Clinical trial information: NCT03286842 . Median TFST: 9.7 mo (95% CI 8.7, 11.1). CRR: 48.6% (95% CI 42.2, 55.0). Adverse events (AEs) in >20% of pts (all grades): nausea, anemia, asthenia, vomiting, and fatigue. 24.6% of pts reported a grade ≥3 AE, including anemia (n=33 [13.1%]). 4.4% of pts had an AE leading to treatment discontinuation. Conclusions: Interim results in this real-world population of pts with HER2- gBRCAm MBC were consistent with the OlympiAD study, and support olaparib as a chemotherapy-free alternative treatment for pts with gBRCAm advanced BC.

Management of Hereditary Breast Cancer: American Society of Clinical Oncology, American Society for Radiation Oncology, and Society of Surgical Oncology Guideline
PURPOSE To develop recommendations for management of patients with breast cancer (BC) with germline mutations in BC susceptibility genes. METHODS The American Society of Clinical Oncology, American Society for Radiation Oncology, and Society of Surgical Oncology convened an Expert Panel to develop recommendations based on a systematic review of the literature and a formal consensus process. RESULTS Fifty-eight articles met eligibility criteria and formed the evidentiary basis for the local therapy recommendations; six randomized controlled trials of systemic therapy met eligibility criteria. RECOMMENDATIONS Patients with newly diagnosed BC and BRCA1/ 2 mutations may be considered for breast-conserving therapy (BCT), with local control of the index cancer similar to that of noncarriers. The significant risk of a contralateral BC (CBC), especially in young women, and the higher risk of new cancers in the ipsilateral breast warrant discussion of bilateral mastectomy. Patients with mutations in moderate-risk genes should be offered BCT. For women with mutations in BRCA1/ 2 or moderate-penetrance genes who are eligible for mastectomy, nipple-sparing mastectomy is a reasonable approach. There is no evidence of increased toxicity or CBC events from radiation exposure in BRCA1/ 2 carriers. Radiation therapy should not be withheld in ATM carriers. For patients with germline TP53 mutations, mastectomy is advised; radiation therapy is contraindicated except in those with significant risk of locoregional recurrence. Platinum agents are recommended versus taxanes to treat advanced BC in BRCA carriers. In the adjuvant/neoadjuvant setting, data do not support the routine addition of platinum to anthracycline- and taxane-based chemotherapy. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (olaparib and talazoparib) are preferable to nonplatinum single-agent chemotherapy for treatment of advanced BC in BRCA1/ 2 carriers. Data are insufficient to recommend PARP inhibitor use in the early setting or in moderate-penetrance carriers. Additional information available at www.asco.org/breast-cancer-guidelines .
