HER2-PET as a Precision Imaging Tool for Treatment With HER2-ADC in HER2-expressing mBC

This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, exploratory diagnostic phase II imaging trial for patients with metastatic breast cancer with at least one line of systemic therapy. The overarching aim of the HER2-Ex PET trial is to study the role of precision imaging utilizing positron emission tomography (PET) with the HER2-specific tracer \[68Ga\]Ga-ABY-025 (hereafter referred to as HER2-PET) in enhancing treatment planning for patients with metastatic HER2-expressing breast cancer Patients will be allocated based on HER2-status on PET and biopsy. Patients with HER2-expressing lesions in a fresh or archived tumour biopsy will be treated with T-DXd. The study hypothesis is that PET/CT precision imaging with a contemporary HER2-radiotracer (\[68Ga\]Ga-ABY-025) can be used and can lead to a potentially better identification of patients who benefit from T-DXd treatment, thereby achieving improved treatment responses as well as fewer side effects. This study's diagnostic approach provides a more individualized treatment strategy. Additionally, this study can potentially give us a better biological understanding of HER2-expressing mBC.

Locoregional Treatment and Palbociclib in de Novo, Treatment Naive, Stage IV ER+, HER2- Breast Cancer Patients

Approximately 3.5% to 6% of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients are stage IV metastatic. De novo metastatic breast cancer accounts for 20% to 25% of these cases. Despite a decrease in mortality in Europe and North America due to early detection and access to treatment, breast cancer remains the 2ⁿᵈ leading cause of cancer deaths in developed countries after lung cancer and the world's leading cause. In the ESME French national retrospective cohort (NCT03275311), the newly diagnosed estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and HER2-negative (luminal) metastatic patients had a 59.1 months overall survival (OS) for pre-menopausal women and 44.7 months for postmenopausal women. In the same cohort, the median OS was 47.4 months for de novo metastatic patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive / HER2-negative breast cancer. The most important current treatment for metastatic breast cancer remains systemic therapy. Surgery and radiation are mainly used to treat symptoms. However, more than 15 retrospective studies have assessed the impact of locoregional treatment on relapse and OS. These studies suggested an improvement of the OS in patients with de novo metastatic breast cancer thanks to the addition of locoregional treatment to systemic therapy. Recent data from the ESME cohort suggest that patients with de novo luminal or HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer may benefit from local treatment of the primary tumor. Several prospective trials have attempted to demonstrate the benefit of locoregional treatment with mixed results. This can be explained by a limited power of statistical analysis, on the recruitment of patients with breast cancer of all types, and on a limited access to effective systemic therapies in some cases and all before the area of anti CD4/6 which is the current standard treatment in patients with HR-positive / HER2-negative luminal metastatic disease. However, guidelines indicate that a "multimodal approach, including curative locoregional treatments, should be considered". As a result, many clinicians offer locoregional treatment of the primary tumor, especially if there is a good response to the first line of systematic treatment. Taken together, these data underscore the need for an evaluation of the value of combined therapy - endocrine therapy - CDK4/6 inhibitor and locoregional treatment - in this population of patients with newly diagnosed HR-positive / HER2-negative breast cancer.
