Abstract 443: Blood-based genotyping and clinical outcomes in patients with advanced breast cancer receiving the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib in real-world settings: Results from POLARIS

Abstract

Abstract Background:POLARIS is a prospective, real-world (RW) study of palbociclib (PAL) in patients (pts) with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2–) advanced breast cancer (ABC) in the US and Canada. Analyses include evaluating the association between circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and clinical response to PAL. Methods: All pts provided informed consent. Blood samples are collected on day 1 of each 4-wk cycle for 6 cycles, at day 1 of every 2-3 cycles, and end of treatment. ctDNA is sequenced using the Guardant360 platform for somatic single-nucleotide variants in complete or critical exons of 73 genes. Analyses include association between clinical outcomes and ctDNA mutation frequencies at baseline and change from baseline to cycle 2, day 1 (C2D1), stratified by line of prior therapy. Results: As of July 2018, 127 pts had ≥1 evaluable ctDNA measurement. Of these, 104 had baseline and C2D1 results; 96 had tumor response assessed. The most common mutations at baseline were PIK3CA (41%), TP53 (33%), and ESR1 (20%). PAL was associated with a decline in mutation frequency of PIK3CA, TP53, and ESR1alleles but not all genes, highlighting differential response based on genomic profile and clonal heterogeneity (Table). Overall, fast progressors (progression <6 mo, n=19) tended to have higher baseline ctDNA values and displayed smaller decreases in ctDNA at C2D1 than slow progressors (progression ≥6 mo, n=4). Conclusions: This study is among the first to provide RW data on blood-based genotyping. Interim data indicate that genomic architecture and longitudinal changes may be predictive and prognostic in pts with HR+/HER2– ABC receiving PAL. Updated data from 239 pts will be presented, including association between individual ctDNA mutation dynamics, clonal heterogeneity, and clinical outcomes (therapeutic response and progression-free survival).
