Abstract P3-13-07: A-TaXel: Multicenter phase II combination of bevacizumab (A) with weekly paclitaxel (Ta) and capecitabine (Xel) in first line treatment for patients with triple negative metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer (TNMBC), a GINECO study
2013
Background: Weekly paclitaxel and capecitabine intermittent regimen is a safe and effective combination in first line treatment of MBC including triple negative cancer (Lortholary et al, Breast Cancer Res Treat 2012). In TNMBC, the combination of A with first line Ta or Xel has been shown to improve response rate (RR) and progression-free survival (PFS) (Miller K et al., N Engl J Med 2007, Robert J et al., J Clin Oncol 2011). This phase II study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of A-TaXel combination in TNMBC. Methods: Patients (pts) with measurable TNMBC were treated in first line until progression with q28 cycles of Ta (80 mg/m 2 D1, 8, 15) + Xel (800 mg/m 2 bid D1-5, 8-12, 15-19) + A (10 mg/kg D1, 14). Primary end point was best overall RR; secondary were safety, PFS, response duration and overall survival (OS). Results: From 04/2010 to 03/2012, 64 pts were accrued including 2 ineligible pts. Patients characteristics were: median age (56.7 yrs), ECOG PS 0 (55%), histological grade III (61%), previous adjuvant chemotherapy (74%), visceral disease (65%), > 1 metastatic sites (74%). Patients received a median of 6 cycles (1-6), mean 5.1. Grade 3-4 neutropenia, anemia and thrombopenia were 23%, 4% and 16% respectively with febrile neutropenia in 5% of pts. G-CSF support was observed in 7% of cycles. Most frequent non hematologic toxicities were alopecia (gr2 40%), hand-foot syndrome (gr2 27%, gr3 13%), nail toxicity (gr2 40%), hypertension (gr3 35%), neuropathy (gr2 26%, gr3 6%), mucositis (gr2 16%, gr3-4 9%), fatigue (gr3 18%, gr4 2%), nausea (gr2 15%, gr3 2%) and thrombosis (gr2 3%, gr3-4 5%). Treatment interruption due to toxicity was 22%, DPD deficiency in one patient, hospitalization 23%. RR was 77%, CR 19%, PR 58%, stable disease 14% and progressive disease 9%. Median response duration was 5.6 months. Median PFS was 7.9 months (6.7-9) and OS 19.2 months (17.3-21.1). Conclusion: A-TaXel is an effective regimen with high RR and manageable toxicity.
