Survey of 100 Practicing Oncologists

What question(s) would you like to pose to a clinical investigator with expertise in the management of TNBC?

• 97 questions/cases received

When will newer agents be integrated into earlier lines of treatment?

When is BRCA testing indicated in a patient with TNBC?

Under what conditions should metastatic sites be biopsied?

Are there other new noncytotoxic, targeted agents in TNBC in addition to PARP inhibitors?

— Naples, FL

1. Are there situations in which you would order BRCA testing for a 50-year-old woman with metastatic TNBC and no family history of breast or ovarian cancer?

Case 1 (Dr O’Shaughnessy)

• 50 yo woman with basal-like TNBC– Preoperative AC paclitaxel: pCR

• Tumor “melts away” after 1 cycle of AC– Locoregional RT

• 2 years later, very rapidly growing ipsilateral internal mammary node protruding from her chest and invading sternum and mediastinal LNs

• Patient enrolls on a trial of gem/carbo ± iniparib*– Major response for 8 cycles (6 months)

• Tissue harvested for total genome sequencing• Paclitaxel/bevacizumab

– Response for 6 months but progressing

O’Shaughnessy J et al. N Engl J Med 2011;364(3):205-14.

Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (mTNBC)

• 15% of breast cancers; clinically defined as ER-negative, PR-negative and HER2-non-overexpressing

• Heterogeneous disease with generally virulent natural history

• Shares gene expression profiles with basal-like, claudin-low and other molecular subtypes

• No clinical implications of molecular subtypes at present

O’Shaughnessy J et al. Proc ASCO 2011;Abstract 1007.

Iniparib (BSI-201)

A novel, investigational, anticancer agent• In triple-negative breast cancer cell lines:

– Induces cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase – Induces double strand DNA damage ϒH2AX foci

but does not inhibit PARP1 and 2 at physiologic drug concentrations

– Potentiates cell-cycle arrest induced by DNA damaging agents, including platinum and gemcitabine

• Physiologic targets of iniparib and its metabolites are under investigation

O’Shaughnessy J et al. Proc ASCO 2011;Abstract 1007.

Preclinical Pharmacodynamic and Pathway Analysis of 3 Presumed PARP Inhibitors: ABT-888, AZD2281, BSI-201

• ABT-888 and AZD2281 are mediated by PARP1 or PARP2.

• Iniparib (BSI-201) suppressed genes in the telomere pathway, suggesting PARP5/6 as potential targets.

• 12/2010: Neck mass– FNB: Metastatic carcinoma– Multiple enlarged lymph nodes in supraclavicular

and jugular chains– Excisional biopsy: ER/PR/HER2-negative

– Resolution of enlarged nodes• 5/2011: Neck mass

– Biopsy: Metastatic carcinoma– Multiple nodules on the skin flap

• Plan: Continue cisplatin

Local versus Central Laboratory Discrepancies in TNBC Status (CIBOMA/2004-01/GEICAM/2003-11)

• In 130 cases (9%) tumors were found to not be TNBC by central determination

• 71% of discrepant results involved ER or PR status
