Imlunestrant is an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader with favorable safety and preliminary efficacy in patients with advanced breast cancer. Pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarker data can optimize drug dosing; in this study, we present PD data from the EMBER-2 study.
Postmenopausal women with untreated, operable estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer were randomized to 400 versus 800 mg of imlunestrant daily for ∼2 weeks before surgery. A single arm study tested a daily dose of 200 mg. PD biomarker changes (ER, progesterone receptor, Ki-67 by IHC, and mRNA expression of ER-related genes) were evaluated in paired tumor samples (pre-/posttreatment). Safety and pharmacokinetics were also assessed.
Among evaluable paired samples (n = 75), PD profiles demonstrated consistent ER targeting between 400- and 800-mg doses, with less toxicity at the 400-mg dose. Although inducing the lowest rate of complete cell-cycle arrest, PD and pharmacokinetic results were similar for the 200-mg dose.
EMBER-2 combined with existing phase I data has identified 400 mg as the optimal imlunestrant dose.
Imlunestrant是一种口服选择性雌激素受体降解剂,在晚期乳腺癌患者中具有良好的安全性和初步疗效。药效学(PD)生物标志物数据可优化药物剂量;在本研究中,我们展示了EMBER-2研究的PD数据。
未接受治疗、可手术的雌激素受体(ER)阳性、人表皮生长因子受体2(HER2)阴性的绝经后早期乳腺癌女性患者在手术前随机分为每日服用400 mg与800 mg的Imlunestrant,持续约2周。一项单臂研究测试了每日200 mg的剂量。在配对的肿瘤样本(治疗前/后)中评估PD生物标志物变化(通过免疫组化检测ER、孕激素受体、Ki-67,以及ER相关基因的mRNA表达)。同时评估安全性和药代动力学。
在可评估的配对样本(n = 75)中,PD图谱显示400 mg和800 mg剂量之间对ER的靶向作用一致,400 mg剂量的毒性较小。尽管200 mg剂量诱导完全细胞周期停滞的发生率最低,但其PD和药代动力学结果相似。
EMBER-2研究结合现有的I期数据确定400 mg为Imlunestrant的最佳剂量。
