Efficacy and safety analyses by prior lines of chemotherapy from the phase 3 TROPiCS-02 study of sacituzumab govitecan (SG) vs treatment of physician’s choice (TPC) in patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC)
Authors
Background: SG is a Trop-2–directed antibody-drug-conjugate approved for pretreated HR+/HER2- (IHC0, 1+, 2+/ISH-) mBC. In TROPiCS-02, SG showed statistically significant improvement in PFS (HR 0.66; 95%-CI 0.53-0.83) and OS (HR 0.79; 95%-CI 0.65-0.96) vs TPC with manageable safety in pretreated HR+/HER2- mBC (Rugo et al. ESMO 2022). Outcomes worsen with multiple prior lines of chemotherapy (pLoT). We present a TROPiCS-02 post-hoc-analysis of SG vs TPC by pLoT.
Methods: Patients with HR+/HER2- mBC and≥1 endocrine, taxane, and CDK4/6i, and 2-4 pLoT for mBC, were randomized to SG (10mg/kg IV Days 1 and 8, Q3W) or TPC. Primary endpoint was PFS; secondary endpoints OS, ORR, CBR, and safety. This analysis compares 2 vs≥3pLoT.
Results: 543 patients received SG (n=272; 113 (42%) had 2pLoT, 159 (58%) had≥3pLoT) and TPC (n=271; 120 (44%) had 2pLoT, 151 (56%) had≥3pLoT). Baseline characteristics were similar. PFS and OS were improved with SG irrespective of pLoT (HR=0.61 and 0.82 in patients with 2pLoT and 0.72 and 0.78 in patients with≥3pLoT, respectively). CBR was improved with SG in patients with 2 and≥3pLoT (2pLoT: 41% vs 25%;≥3pLoT: 29% vs 20%), ORR was improved in patients with 2pLoT (30% vs 16%), and grade 3/4 TEAEs were similar (2pLoT: 71% vs 53%;≥3pLoT: 72% vs 66%).
Conclusions: Regardless of number of pLoT, SG improved efficacy vs TPC in patients with HR+/HER2- mBC, with manageable safety. Findings are consistent with the ITT population, demonstrating the potential for patients to benefit from SG in earlier pLoT.
