Abstract PS10-14: Efficacy and safety of palbociclib (PAL) in patients (pts) with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC) with preexisting conditions: A post hoc analysis of PALOMA-2

Abstract

Abstract Background: In the PALOMA-2 trial, PAL + letrozole (LET) significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) vs placebo (PBO) + LET in pts with ER+/HER2– ABC. This post hoc analysis assessed efficacy and safety of PAL + LET in pts from PALOMA-2 with baseline preexisting conditions grouped by Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) System Organ Class (SOC). Methods: Postmenopausal pts with ER+/HER2– ABC received PAL (125 mg/d, 3/1 schedule) + LET (2.5 mg/d, continuous) or PBO + LET. Pts were grouped by the following MedDRA SOC preexisting conditions: Gastrointestinal, Musculoskeletal, Metabolism, and Vascular/Cardiac. Baseline characteristics, PFS, and safety were assessed. Results: At baseline, 41.4% of pts had preexisting gastrointestinal disorders, 58.6% musculoskeletal disorders, 38.9% metabolism disorders, and 57.4% vascular/cardiac disorders. Baseline characteristics were similar between treatment arms within each subgroup and also between subgroups. Within each subgroup, ≥40% of pts also had ≥1 of the other coexisting conditions. Median PFS (mPFS) was significantly longer with PAL + LET vs PBO + LET regardless of preexisting condition (Table). In general, adverse events (AEs) were more frequent with PAL + LET in all subgroups; neutropenia was most common. Within each treatment arm, AEs and dose modifications due to AEs were similar regardless of preexisting condition. Conclusion: PAL + LET showed prolonged PFS and a consistent safety profile regardless of baseline preexisting condition in pts with ER+/HER2– ABC.
