Case Study: Sonia

  • 49-yr-old woman presents with back pain and left breast mass (4 cm)

‒ She has no significant family history or past medical history ‒ Core biopsy of breast mass: invasive ductal carcinoma; ER: 0%, PgR: 0%, HER2: 3+ ‒ PET/CT: 3 liver lesions (largest 2 cm); several vertebral lesions in the thoracic and lower spine

  • She receives docetaxel/trastuzumab/pertuzumab (THP) and achieves PR in liver after 3 mos
  • n therapy

‒ 18 mos later, progression is noted in liver (new 3-cm lesion, other lesions stable)

  • Receives T-DM1 and achieves PR in liver, with stable bone lesions

‒ 10 mos later, she complains of headache ‒ MRI of the brain: 3 lesions (1 cm) in the left frontal lobe with minimal edema ‒ PET/CT: liver lesions remain unchanged, no new liver lesions; bone lesions stable

ER = estrogen receptor, PgR = progesterone receptor, PR = partial response; T-DM1 = trastuzumab emtansine.

Optimal Sequence of HER2-Targeted Agents for Patients With HER2-Positive MBC

  • Multiple treatment options are available for patients with HER2-positive MBC
  • Clinicians should reassess risks and benefits of additional lines of therapy

based on patient’s fitness, comorbidities, and preferences at progression

  • If additional treatment is indicated, select therapy based on disease features as

well as patient’s fitness, comorbidities, and preferences

  • ≥ 50% of patients with HER2+ MBC will develop

brain metastases[1]

  • Lapatinib + capecitabine approved in this

setting but few patients respond ‒ In a pooled analysis, CNS ORR was 21.4%, median PFS was 4.1 mos, median OS was 11.2 mos[1]

  • Neratinib + capecitabine approved in this

setting in Feb 2020

  • Trastuzumab + capecitabine + tucatinib

approved in this setting in April 2020

  • T-DM1, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab do not

penetrate the CNS under normal conditions

In HER2+ MBC, CNS Disease Remains Incurable Despite Current Treatment Options

CNS = central nervous system; ECOG = Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group; MBC = metastatic breast cancer; OR = odds ratio; PS = performance status; T-DM1 = trastuzumab emtansine.

Optimal Use of HER2-Targeted TKI for Patients With HER2- Positive MBC and Brain Metastases

  • HER2 TKIs known to have CNS penetration, data from clinical trials show systemic benefit as

well as CNS benefit

  • Standard of care for patients with single or limited brain metastases continues to be

radiotherapy of CNS lesions followed by continuation of current systemic therapy

  • For patients with progressive brain metastases despite initial radiotherapy, consider switching

to systemic therapy with HER2 TKI

  • HER2 TKIs may also be an option for patients without brain lesions due to overall systemic

benefit observed in clinical trials

  • On April 17, 2020, the FDA approved tucatinib in combination with trastuzumab/capecitabine

for treatment of advanced, unresectable or metastatic HER2+ BC, including patients with brain metastases, who have received ≥ 1 previous HER2-targeted therapy in the metastatic setting

for treatment of advanced, unresectable or metastatic HER2+ BC, including patients with brain metastases, who have received ≥ 1 previous HER2-targeted therapy in the metastatic setting ‒ Administration: 300 mg taken orally twice daily with or without food

  • Reduce dose to 200 mg orally twice daily for patients with severe hepatic impairment

‒ Tucatinib can cause severe diarrhea; administer antidiarrheal treatment as clinically indicated ‒ Tucatinib can cause severe hepatotoxicity; monitor ALT, AST, and bilirubin prior to starting tucatinib, every 3 weeks during treatment, and as clinically indicated ‒ Management of AEs may require temporary interruption, dose reduction, or discontinuation

‒ She has no significant family history or past medical history ‒ Core biopsy of breast mass: invasive ductal carcinoma; ER: 0%, PgR: 0%, HER2: 2+; FISH ratio: 3.4 with copy number of 7 ‒ PET/CT: 3 liver lesions (largest 3 cm); several vertebral lesions in the thoracic and lumbar spine

  • She receives docetaxel/trastuzumab/pertuzumab (THP) and achieves PR in liver after 4 mos
  • 16 mos later, she experiences progression in liver (new 2.5-cm lesion, other lesions stable)
  • She receives T-DM1 and achieves PR in liver, with stable bone lesions
  • 12 mos later PET/CT shows increase in liver lesions to 3 cm, no new liver lesions, and bone

lesions remain stable ‒ No brain lesions on MRI

Strategies to Manage ILD Associated with T-DXd Therapy in HER2-Positive MBC

  • Monitor for ILD and promptly investigate signs and symptoms including cough,

dyspnea, fever, and other new or worsening respiratory symptoms ‒ Evaluate with imaging and consider pulmonology consult

  • For patients with asymptomatic ILD, hold T-DXd and re-image in 4 wks

‒ Consider corticosteroid treatment, if necessary ‒ If resolved, restart T-DXd with dose reduction

  • For patients with symptomatic ILD, discontinue T-DXd and initiate steroids

‒ Consider pulmonary consult

Grade 1 Grade 2 Grade 3/4

  • Monitor with close follow-up in 2-7 days for
  • nset of clinical symptoms, pulse oximetry
  • Consider follow-up imaging in 1-2 wks (or as

clinically indicated)

  • Consider initiating systemic steroids (≥ 0.5

mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) until improvement, followed by gradual taper over at least 4 wks

  • If ILD worsens despite initiation of

corticosteroids, follow grade 2 guidelines

  • Restart T-DXd if ILD resolves within 28 days

after onset

  • Restart T-DXd at reduced dose if ILD resolves

> 28 days after onset

  • Permanently discontinue T-DXd if grade 1 ILD
  • ccurs beyond cycle Day 22 and has not

resolved within 49 days from last infusion

  • Immediately begin systemic steroids (≥ 1

mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) until clinical improvement, followed by gradual taper over at least 4 wks

  • Monitor symptoms closely
  • Re-image as clinically indicated
  • For worsening symptoms or no improvement

within 5 days: ⎻ Consider increasing dose of steroids to 2 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent and/or switch to IV administration with methylprednisolone ⎻ Reconsider additional workup for alternative etiologies as described above ⎻ Escalate care as clinically indicated

  • Permanently discontinue T-DXd
  • Hospitalization required
  • Immediately begin empiric high-dose

methylprednisolone IV (500-1000 mg/day for 3 days), followed by ≥ 1 mg/kg/day of prednisone (or equivalent) until clinical improvement, followed by gradual taper over at least 4 wks

  • Re-image as clinically indicated
  • For no improvement within 3-5 days:

⎻ Reconsider additional workup for alternative etiologies as described above ⎻ Consider other immunosuppressants and/or treat per local practice

  • Permanently discontinue T-DXd

  • HER2-targeted TKIs are a reasonable therapy for HER2+ MBC in the third-line

setting and beyond ‒ Tucatinib data are particularly strong and may be a good option for patients with progressive brain metastases

  • Trastuzumab deruxtecan is a major new therapy approved for HER2+ MBC in the

third-line setting, likely to move to earlier settings ‒ Post neoadjuvant therapy ‒ Second-line T-DXd vs T-DM1 (DESTINY-Breast03) ‒ Also being looked at for HER2-low disease (DESTINY-Breast04)

  • Margetuximab is of unclear benefit (perhaps in CD16A-F allele carriers?)

Implications for Practice

MBC = metastatic breast cancer; T-DM1 = trastuzumab emtansine; T-DXd = trastuzumab deruxtecan; TKI = tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

PCE Action Plan

✓ Clinicians should reassess risks and benefits of additional lines of therapy based on patient’s fitness, comorbidities, and preferences at progression ✓ If additional treatment is indicated, select therapy based on disease features as well as patient’s fitness, comorbidities, and preferences ✓ For patients with brain metastases, consider treatment with HER2 TKI-based therapy ✓ After ≥ 2 previous lines of anti–HER2-based therapy, consider T-DXd for eligible patients ✓ For patients receiving T-DXd, monitor for signs of interstitial lung disease and manage ILD using recommended guidelines

PCE Promotes Practice Change

ILD = interstitial lung disease; T-DXd = trastuzumab deruxtecan; TKI = tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
