ARTICLE ABSTRACT
Patients with HER2-positive breast cancer brain metastases have few effective systemic therapy options. In a prior study, pertuzumab with high-dose trastuzumab demonstrated a high clinical benefit rate (CBR) in the central nervous system (CNS) in patients with brain metastases. The current trial evaluated whether the addition of atezolizumab to this regimen would produce further improvements in CNS response.
This was a single-arm, multicenter, phase II trial of atezolizumab, pertuzumab, and high-dose trastuzumab for patients with HER2-positive breast cancer brain metastases. Participants received atezolizumab 1,200 mg i.v. every 3 weeks, pertuzumab (loading dosage 840 mg i.v., then 420 mg i.v. every 3 weeks), and high-dose trastuzumab (6 mg/kg i.v. weekly for 24 weeks, then 6 mg/kg i.v. every 3 weeks). The primary endpoint was CNS overall response rate per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases criteria. Key secondary endpoints included CBR, overall survival, and safety and tolerability of the combination.
Among 19 enrolled participants, two had a confirmed intracranial partial response for a CNS overall response rate of 10.5% (90% confidence interval, 1.9%–29.6%). The study did not meet the prespecified efficacy threshold and was terminated early. The CBR was 42.1% at 18 weeks and 31.6% at 24 weeks. Seven patients (36.8%) required a dose delay or hold, and the most frequent any-grade adverse events were diarrhea (26.3%) and fatigue (26.3%).
The addition of atezolizumab to pertuzumab plus high-dose trastuzumab does not result in improved CNS responses in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer brain metastases.
