Abstract PD12-11: Patient-reported outcomes from the Phase III IMpassion031 trial of neoadjuvant atezolizumab + chemotherapy in early triple-negative breast cancer

Abstract

Abstract Background: In the IMpassion031 study (NCT03197935) of patients (N = 333) with invasive stage II or III early triple-negative breast cancer (eTNBC), neoadjuvant treatment with atezolizumab vs placebo, each combined with nab-paclitaxel followed by doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide, significantly improved pathologic complete response in the intent-to-treat population. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were collected to document patient perspectives on overall treatment burden and clinical benefit of atezolizumab + chemotherapy for neoadjuvant treatment of eTNBC. Methods: Patients received either atezolizumab 840 mg or placebo every 2 weeks (q2w) with nab-paclitaxel 125 mg/m2 every week for 12 weeks followed by atezolizumab 840 mg or placebo q2w with doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 + cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 q2w for 4 cycles. After surgery, patients in the atezolizumab arm were unblinded and continued to receive atezolizumab 1200 mg every 3 weeks for 11 doses, while patients in the control arm did not receive any study treatment. Patients completed the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) and single-item GP5 from the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) questionnaire at baseline and day 1 of each cycle of neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment, at end of treatment and during follow-up every 3 months during year 1, every 6 months during years 2-3, and then annually. Mean and mean change from baseline scores (with changes ≥ 10 considered clinically meaningful) in function (role and physical) and global health status/health-related quality of life (GHS/HRQoL) were predefined secondary endpoints. Mean and mean change from baseline scores in disease and treatment-related symptoms, as well as an assessment of overall side-effect bother, were exploratory endpoints. Expected results: The PROs will be compared between the atezolizumab and placebo arms to assess overall treatment burden and the effect of adding atezolizumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for the treatment of eTNBC.
