GeparOcto demonstrated that pathological complete response (pCR) of intense dose-dense epirubicin, paclitaxel and cyclophosphamide (iddEPC) was comparable to weekly paclitaxel/non-pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (plus carboplatin (PM(Cb) in triple-negative breast cancer [TNBC]) in high-risk early breast cancer (BC). Here, we report time-to-event secondary end-points.
Patients were randomised to receive 18 weeks of E (150 mg/m) followed by P (225 mg/m) followed by C (2000 mg/m), each q2w or weekly P (80 mg/m) plus M (20 mg/m) plus, in TNBC, Cb (AUC 1.5). Patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+)BC received trastuzumab (6[loading dose 8]mg/kg q3w) and pertuzumab (420[840]mg q3w) with P and C cycles.
945 patients started treatment (iddEPC n = 470; PM(Cb) n = 475). After a median follow-up of 47.0 (range 1.6-61.5) months, 162 (75 in iddEPC; 87 in PM(Cb)) invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) events and 79 (41 in iddEPC; 38 in PM(Cb)) deaths were reported. No significant difference was observed in 4-year iDFS (81.9% iddEPC versus 79.7% PM(Cb), HR = 1.16 [95%CI 0.85-1.59], log-rank p = 0.334) or 4-year overall survival (OS) (90.3% iddEPC versus 90.6% PM(Cb), HR = 0.90 [95%CI 0.58-1.40], log-rank p = 0.637) overall and in HER2+ and TNBC subgroups. HR+/HER2- BC patients, however, had significantly better 4-year iDFS (77.9% iddEPC versus 62.5% PM, HR = 2.11 [95%CI 1.08-4.10], log-rank p = 0.025) and 4-year OS with iddEPC (94.7% iddEPC versus 80.1% PM, HR = 3.26 [95%CI 1.06-10.00], log-rank p = 0.029).
While there was no difference in survival for the entire cohort, the HR+/HER2-subgroup significantly benefits from iddEPC. This supports the concept of an additional effect of NACT beyond pCR in patients with HR+/HER2- BC. CLINICALTRIALS.

GeparOcto 研究表明,在高危早期乳腺癌(BC)中,密集剂量表柔比星、紫杉醇和环磷酰胺(iddEPC)的病理完全缓解(pCR)与每周紫杉醇/非聚乙二醇脂质体阿霉素(加卡铂(PM(Cb))在三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)中相当。在这里,我们报告时间事件次要终点。
患者被随机分配接受 18 周的 E(150mg/m),然后是 P(225mg/m),然后是 C(2000mg/m),每 2 周一次,或每周 P(80mg/m)加 M(20mg/m),在 TNBC 中加 Cb(AUC 1.5)。人表皮生长因子受体 2 阳性(HER2+)BC 患者接受曲妥珠单抗(6[负荷剂量 8]mg/kg q3w)和帕妥珠单抗(420[840]mg q3w)加 P 和 C 周期。
945 名患者开始治疗(iddEPC n=470;PM(Cb)n=475)。中位随访 47.0(范围 1.6-61.5)个月后,报告了 162 例(iddEPC 75 例;PM(Cb)87 例)侵袭性无病生存(iDFS)事件和 79 例(iddEPC 41 例;PM(Cb)38 例)死亡。4 年 iDFS(iddEPC 为 81.9%,PM(Cb)为 79.7%,HR=1.16[95%CI 0.85-1.59],对数秩检验 p=0.334)或 4 年总生存(OS)(iddEPC 为 90.3%,PM(Cb)为 90.6%,HR=0.90[95%CI 0.58-1.40],对数秩检验 p=0.637)总体以及 HER2+和 TNBC 亚组均无显著差异。然而,HR+/HER2-BC 患者 4 年 iDFS(iddEPC 为 77.9%,PM 为 62.5%,HR=2.11[95%CI 1.08-4.10],对数秩检验 p=0.025)和 4 年 OS(iddEPC 为 94.7%,PM 为 80.1%,HR=3.26[95%CI 1.06-10.00],对数秩检验 p=0.029)明显更好。
尽管整个队列的生存无差异,但 HR+/HER2-亚组从 iddEPC 中显著获益。这支持了在 HR+/HER2-BC 患者中,NACT 除了 pCR 之外还有额外疗效的概念。临床试验。
