該國際多中心雙盲隨機對照而期臨床研究于2016年2月23日~2019年5月3日從15個國家155家醫(yī)院入組HER2陽性乳腺癌既往曲妥珠單抗、帕妥珠單抗、T-DM1治療后仍然發(fā)生遠處轉(zhuǎn)移(包括腦轉(zhuǎn)移)患者612例,,按2∶1的比例隨機分入兩組:其中410例接受妥卡替尼+曲妥珠單抗+卡培他濱,其余202例接受安慰劑+曲妥珠單抗+卡培他濱。主要研究終點為首批480例隨機入組患者的無進展生存。次要研究終點為全部612例患者的總生存、291例腦轉(zhuǎn)移患者的無進展生存、客觀緩解率和安全性。 結(jié)果,中位隨訪14.1個月期間,妥卡替尼聯(lián)合組與安慰劑聯(lián)合組相比:
對于腦轉(zhuǎn)移患者,妥卡替尼聯(lián)合組與安慰劑聯(lián)合組相比:
妥卡替尼組發(fā)生率最高的不良事件包括腹瀉、手足綜合征、惡心、疲勞、嘔吐。妥卡替尼聯(lián)合組與安慰劑聯(lián)合組相比,腹瀉、轉(zhuǎn)氨酶升高≥3級的發(fā)生率較高。 因此,該研究結(jié)果表明,對于多種HER2靶向藥物治療失敗的HER2陽性乳腺癌轉(zhuǎn)移(包括腦轉(zhuǎn)移)患者,曲妥珠單抗+卡培他濱+妥卡替尼與曲妥珠單抗+卡培他濱+安慰劑相比,無進展生存和總生存結(jié)果顯著較好;妥卡替尼的腹瀉和轉(zhuǎn)氨酶水平升高風險較高。 該研究通訊作者:Eric P.

BACKGROUND: Patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer who have disease progression after therapy with multiple HER2-targeted agents have limited treatment options. Tucatinib is an investigational, oral, highly selective inhibitor of the HER2 tyrosine kinase. METHODS: We randomly assigned patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer previously treated with trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and trastuzumab emtansine, who had or did not have brain metastases, to receive either tucatinib or placebo, in combination with trastuzumab and capecitabine. The primary end point was progression-free survival among the first 480 patients who underwent randomization. Secondary end points, assessed in the total population (612 patients), included overall survival, progression-free survival among patients with brain metastases, confirmed objective response rate, and safety. RESULTS: Progression-free survival at 1 year was 33.1% in the tucatinib-combination group and 12.3% in the placebo-combination group (hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.42 to 0.71; P<0.001), and the median duration of progression-free survival was 7.8 months and 5.6 months, respectively. Overall survival at 2 years was 44.9% in the tucatinib-combination group and 26.6% in the placebo-combination group (hazard ratio for death, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.50 to 0.88; P=0.005), and the median overall survival was 21.9 months and 17.4 months, respectively. Among the patients with brain metastases, progression-free survival at 1 year was 24.9% in the tucatinib-combination group and 0% in the placebo-combination group (hazard ratio, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.34 to 0.69; P<0.001), and the median progression-free survival was 7.6 months and 5.4 months, respectively. Common adverse events in the tucatinib group included diarrhea, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, nausea, fatigue, and vomiting. Diarrhea and elevated aminotransferase levels of grade 3 or higher were more common in the tucatinib-combination group than in the placebo-combination group. CONCLUSIONS: In heavily pretreated patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, including those with brain metastases, adding tucatinib to trastuzumab and capecitabine resulted in better progression-free survival and overall survival outcomes than adding placebo; the risks of diarrhea and elevated aminotransferase levels were higher with tucatinib.
