SABCS 2012 Guy Jerusalem, MD, PhD
SABCS 2012: Clinicalstudies in HER2 negativedisease • Hunderds of oral and poster presentations to becovered (endocrine therapy, chemo, targetedtherapy) • Selectioncriteria for mypresentation: phase 3 studiescontributing to respond to important clinical questions
Impact of the ATLAS trial? • Premenopausal patients (10% of study population) The new standard? • Postmenopausal patients Use of AI
My opinion • Postmenopausal patients • I consider 5 years of TAM as an option in high risk patients after 5 years of AI (discussion with the patient indicating of course thatthisis not an evidence-basedapproach)

First subsequent therapies San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium – Cancer Therapy and Research Center at UT Health Science Center – December 4-8, 2012 * 8 out of 374 patients (2.1%) shifted from fulvestrant 250 mg to fulvestrant 500 mg either at the time of PD to 250 mg (4 pts.) or in absence of PD (4 pts.)
Conclusion and clinical impact • This 4-month OS benefitisclinically relevant althoughsurprising (only 1-month PFS benefit) • A better endocrine therapy in first or second line ER positive breast cancer canimprovesurvival (TAMRAD, trend in BOLERO 2 – mature OS resultsexpected in 2013) • 500 mg isalreadyapproved as the new standard dose and isused in our routine practice
Conclusion and clinical impact • LEA is a negative trial although a smallbenefit (<31% reduction in PFS withbevacizumab) cannotberuled out by thisstudy; bev has no impact on OS • More promisingcombinedtreatments (endocrine therapy and targetedtherapy) are underevaluation
Conclusion and clinical impact • First randomized phase 3 trial specifically in early TNBC; 3 year IDFS betterthanexpected. • The BEATRICE trial demonstrated no statisticallysignificantimprovement in invasive DFS • Results are consistent withdisappointing data observed in the adjuvant treatment of early colon cancer

Conclusion and myinterpretation • TACT trial : unable to confirm the results of the Citron trial • Dose-dense epirubicine (4 cycles) does not improve TTR; actualdelivered dose-intensitywas OK • Explanation ??? • Role of taxanes? • Lenght of follow-up?
Conclusion and myinterpretation • Shouldwe stop using dose-dense chemo? • The Citron trial is not the onlysuccess story of dose-dense chemotherapy (dose-dense adriamycine/cyclophosphamide in NHL, dose-dense paclitaxel in ovarian cancer) • Good rationale (Norton-Simon hypothesis) for using dose-dense chemotherapy in highlyproliferativetumors
Conclusion and myinterpretation • Interestingresults; suggestthatwecanstillimproveour standard chemoregimens • All parts of thisregimen are differentfromcurrent standards… • Dose-density? Dose-intensity? Early use of dose-dense paclitaxel? • I will not use thisregimen…
