Abstract

Abstract Background Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) composed of an HER2-directed antibody and a topoisomerase I inhibitor covalently linked via a tetrapeptide-based cleavable linker. In DESTINY-Breast01, tolerability and efficacy of T-DXd including overall response rate, progression-free survival, duration of response and overall survival have been demonstrated for HER2-positive metastatic and/or unresectable BC in patients (pts) relapsing after 2 or more anti-HER2-based regimens. In France, rapid and fair access to innovative drugs outside clinical trials, prior to their marketing authorization in a given indication, is granted by the French Health Agency, ANSM (Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des Produits de Santé), through cATU program. Here we report first real world evidence data from cATU program in HER2+ BC pts treated with T-DXd. Methods T-DXd 5.4mg/kg was given intravenously in monotherapy every 3 weeks in HER2-positive metastatic and/or unresectable BC pts who had previously received at least 2 lines of anti-HER2 regimens in the metastatic setting. Eligible pts needed to have normal neutrophil count and no left ventricular dysfunction. Pts with active or history of interstitial lung disease (ILD), pneumonitis, severe pulmonary disease were excluded. Clinical, biological and safety data were collected until the end of cATU, as well as treatment response according to RECIST 1.1., dose modification, treatment interruption and discontinuation. Analysis was performed on March 31th, 2021 on the basis of available collected data. Results From September 30th, 2020 to March 31th, 2021, 155 centers requested at least one ATU for a total of 539 adult pts; 468 requests were accepted and 71 were refused as they did not meet eligibility criteria. T-DXd was received by 459 pts with the following characteristics: 99.1% were women, median age was 58 years, 90.4% had a ECOG score of 0-1, 98.9% had initial HER2-positive BC (IHC 3+ or IHC 2+/ISH+), 67% were hormone receptor positive. The main sites of metastases were bones (57.3%), lymph nodes (51.6%), lungs (36.2%), liver (33.1%), brain (28.1%) and cutaneous/subcutaneous (13.9%). Median time between initial diagnosis of primary BC and inclusion was 6.6 years (range: 6.6 months - 33.9 years). 81.7% of pts had previously received radiotherapy and 76.5% underwent surgery. The median number of prior cancer regimens in the metastatic setting was 4 (range: 2-22). 21.1% received 2 prior lines of metastatic treatments, 19.6% received 3 lines and 59.3% received 4 lines or more. 94.8% pts received prior trastuzumab emtansine, and 79.3% had prior pertuzumab. During follow-up, data on tumor assessment were available for 160 pts. Of these, 56.7% had complete or partial response and 12.1% had progression. Of the 459 treated pts, 97 pts (21.1%) experienced ≥ 1 Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) including 41 pts (8.9%) with ≥ 1 serious ADR. Most frequent ADRs were related to gastrointestinal toxicity (35.4%). During cATU, 17 cases (3.7%) with ILD or considered as ILD were reported but no cases had a fatal outcome (only grade 1 or 2 when reported by physicians). 13 fatal cases were reported (no drug-related deaths, attributed by physician). ADRs leading to T-DXd discontinuation were reported in 4 pts (0.9%). Dose reductions were reported in 17 pts (3.7%) and 21 pts (4.6%) had temporary interruptions. Conclusions We report here the first real world data from the French cATU in HER2-positive BC pts treated by T-DXd. The enrolment of 468 pts in 6 months illustrated the unmet medical need for this population. T-DXd had antitumor activity with a similar response rate to that reported in previous clinical studies. T-DXd was well tolerated and no new safety signals were observed.
