  15. Patient TK:history • TK is a 57-year-old woman diagnosedwith stage II breast cancer • She underwent • segmental mastectomy • axillary lymph node dissection • T2 (3.7cm IDC), N1 (3 LN+), M0 • ER-positive 30%, PR-negative • HER2 FISH+ (ratio 12.3) • Initial evaluation • no metastases • EF 65% IDC = invasive ductal carcinoma; LN = lymph nodePR = partial response; EF = ejection fraction

  16. Patient TK: treatment recommendation • AC x four cycles • Followed by paclitaxel concurrent with trastuzumab weekly • 12 weeks • followed by additional 9 months of single-agent trastuzumab • Adjuvant radiation • Anti-oestrogen therapy

  17. Patient TK: cardiac safety • Evaluation after AC: slight decrease in EF (60%) • After 12 doses of paclitaxel plus trastuzumab: another slight decrease in EF (55%) • Repeat echocardiogram after 3 months of single-agent trastuzumab: additional drop in EF (50%) • she was asymptomatic • Trastuzumab interrupted and patient referred to cardiology • Started on low-dose beta blocker plus low-dose ACE inhibitor • Repeat echocardiogram 1 month after stopping trastuzumab: improvement in EF to 60% • Trastuzumab restarted with EF monitored every 3 months: no further decline in EF ACE = angiotensin-converting enzyme

  18. Patient TK: cardiac safety guidelines • Patients may have a transient EF decrease with trastuzumab • Guidelines recommend trastuzumab be interrupted for • a drop in EF >10% when EF falls below normal • a drop in EF ≥16% regardless of overall EF • Repeat echocardiogram should be conducted within 1 month after interruption of trastuzumab • If EF returns to within normal limits or there is <15% drop when the EF is within normal limits, restart trastuzumab • If EF has not returned to normal, recheck in a further 4 weeks, if EF is still below acceptable limits, discontinue trastuzumab

Patient SG  history • SG is a 36-year-old mother of three • She is s/p right MRM with axillary LND • Pathology • T3 (5.4cm), N1 (3+ LN) • HER2 FISH+ (ratio 8.8) • ER and PR-negative • No evidence of MBC • EF >65% MRM = modified radical mastectomy; LND = lymph node density MBC = metastatic breast cancer

  27. Patient SG: adjuvant treatment recommendations • AC x four cycles • Followed by paclitaxel concurrent with trastuzumab weekly • 12 weeks • followed by additional 9 months of single-agent trastuzumab

  28. Patient SG: duration of therapy • After completion of AC, paclitaxel plus trastuzumab • SG returns to clinic with FinHer study results • asks to discontinue trastuzumab • She is asymptomatic • EF has remained WNL (>60%) • My recommendation • at this time, there are insufficient data to advocate abbreviated duration of treatment with trastuzumab • One year of trastuzumab is re-recommended, patient agrees • Consider use of q3w trastuzumab once chemotherapy is completed WNL = within normal limits

  29. Retreatment with adjuvanttrastuzumab (RHEA): trial design Cohort A Trastuzumab 4mg/kg loading dose then 2mg/kg qw • Primary endpoint = overall response rate • Secondary endpoints = clinical benefit rate, survival, safety • Planned cohort size = 40 patients in each HER2-positive breast cancer IHC 3+/FISH+ Baseline LVEF 50% Relapsed 12 months after 10 months of adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy Cohort B Trastuzumab +docetaxel 100mg/m2q3w x 6 orpaclitaxel 175mg/m2 q3w x 6 or75mg/m2 qw x 18 RHEA = Retreatment after HErceptin Adjuvant trial Bell R, et al.ASCO Breast Cancer Symposium 2007 (Abstract 245)

  39. Conclusions: duration and modalityof trastuzumab therapy • Current data support 1 year of therapy • Current data support initiation of trastuzumab concurrently with paclitaxel (combined analysis) • Current data support initiation of trastuzumab after adjuvant therapy (HERA) • A benefit to patients cannot be excluded even when trastuzumab is started >6 months after adjuvant therapy
