1105 Background: Approximately 2-5% of breast cancers harbor HER2 mutations, often occurring in hormone receptor-positive (HR+) disease. There are currently no approved treatment options for patients (pts) with HER2-mutated metastatic breast cancer (HER2-mut MBC). Tucatinib (TUC) is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor highly selective for HER2 and is approved for previously treated HER2+ MBC with or without brain metastases in combination with trastuzumab (Tras) and capecitabine. Here, we report the efficacy and safety results of TUC combined with Tras in pts with previously treated HER2-mut MBC. Methods: SGNTUC-019 (NCT04579380) is an open-label phase 2 basket study evaluating efficacy, safety, and tolerability of TUC and Tras in pts with metastatic HER2-altered solid tumors. Pts in the HER2-mut MBC cohort must have HER2 mutations determined locally by tissue- or blood-based next-generation sequencing, not be HER2+ per local testing, been previously treated with ≥1 systemic therapy in the locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic setting, and if HR+, have received a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Pts were treated in 21-day cycles with TUC (300 mg orally twice a day) and Tras (8 mg/kg IV followed by 6 mg/kg every 3 wks). Pts with HR+ disease also received fulvestrant (F; 500 mg IM once every 4 wks starting from cycle 1 day 1, and cycle 1 day 15). Disease status was determined based on RECIST v1.1 with assessments performed every 6 wks for 24 wks and every 12 wks thereafter. The primary endpoint is cORR per investigator assessment. Secondary endpoints include OS, DCR, DOR, PFS, and safety. Results: As of Nov 1, 2023, 31 pts were enrolled in the HER2-mut MBC cohort. The median duration of follow-up for OS was 15.0 months. Twenty-seven (87%) pts had HR+ disease and 18 (58%) had lobular histology. The pts received a median of 4 prior lines of systemic therapy in any setting. cORR was 41.9% (90% CI, 26.9-58.2) with 13 responses including 2 complete responses. Median DOR was 12.6 months (90% CI, 4.7, not estimable), DCR was 80.6% (n=25; 90% CI, 65.3-91.2), median PFS was 9.5 months (90% CI, 5.4-13.8), and median OS was 20.1 months (90% CI, 15.9 to not estimable). The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) reported were diarrhea (64.5%) and nausea (35.5%). The most common grade ≥3 TEAEs reported were diarrhea (13%), alanine aminotransferase increase (10%), and hypertension (10%). Two (6.5%) pts discontinued TUC due to TEAEs, but these pts continued Tras. No deaths were due to TEAEs. Additional biomarker analyses will be included in the presentation. Conclusions: The investigational combination of TUC and Tras, plus F in pts with HR+ disease, was well tolerated and had clinical activity in pts with previously treated HER2-mut MBC. The results support further evaluation of the combination of TUC and Tras as a potential treatment option for this pt population. Clinical trial information: NCT04579380 .
