Abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy for HR+, HER2-, node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer: results from a pre-planned monarchE overall survival interim analysis, including 4-year efficacy outcomes

Abstract #GS1-09: Prof. Stephen Johnston presented interim OS data from the P3 monarchE trial, assessing abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy (ET) in 5,637 patients with HR+, HER2-, node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer.

Results:

  • Abemaciclib demonstrated sustained benefit even after discontinuation – invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) 4-year rates were better than 2- and 3-year
  • At 4 years, rates of IDFS in the abemaciclib + ET arm were 85.8% vs 79.4% in the ET only arm
  • Rates of distant relapse-free survival (DRFS)were 88.4% in the abema + ET arm vs 82.8% in the ET alone arm
  • OS remains immature; but fewer deaths occurred in the abema + ET arm vs the ET alone arm (5.6% vs 6.1%)
  • No new safety signals observed

    While many thought leaders find the IDFS and DRFS benefit and reduced recurrence risk encouraging . . .

    . . . they await mature OS data and claim that practice is unlikely to change until demonstrable OS benefit is shown.

    Managing abemaciclib side effects will be increasingly important given lasting efficacy.

    Summary:

    Though abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy (ET) provides sustained benefit in HR+, HER2-, node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer, the combination is unlikely to be practice changing until it demonstrates improved OS.

    79% had reduction in disease. ORR 31%. Many responses deepen over time.

    Median DOR not yet reached. Median OS 13.9 mo. 12 mo OS was 54%. As typical with immunotherapy, we see a nice tail on the curve. #TIL#SITC22

    Important work on efficacy of TIL therapy lifileucel in PD-1 resistant #melanoma being presented at #SITC22. Pretty good durability for this heavy lift of a treatment.

    Toxicity profile was in line with prior TIL/Lifileucel data. No surprises here. Median # doses of IL-2 was 6.

    Absolutely agree!… this should be available to our melanoma patients ASAP!… and paves the way for smarter cellular therapies to be designed, studied, and eventually widely disseminated

    Where does this leave us with #TIL therapy for #melanoma? IMO, this response rate/durability justifies accelerated approval. Pts with PD-1 refractory melanoma need options. It’s FAR from a perfect tx but provides meaningful clinical benefit. What say you melanoma Twitterverse?
