Abstract

Aim. The aim of the study is to examine the efficacy and safety of eribulin in HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (BC) in Russian clinical practice. Materials and methods. The analysis included 459 patients with advanced BC from 44 federal and municipal medical clinics in Russia and received at least 2 courses of treatment with eribulin in accordance with the registered indications for drug. The average age of women was 56 years (between 29 and 81 years), 83% of patients had HER2-negative tumor subtype (49.9% - luminal BC and 33.1% - triple-negative BC) HER2-positive biological tumor subtype was registered in 17% of patients. Visceral metastases were diagnosed in 73% of patients and three-zone and multiple zone metastases were diagnosed in 41.6% of cases. The median number of prior lines of therapy in patients with disseminated disease was 2; anthracycline and taxane chemotherapy was applied in 94.3% of patients, and 38.1% of patients were recived CT plus capecitabine. Standard treatment regimen with eribulin was cotinuing (1.4 mg/m² as a 2-5-minute intravenous infusion administrated on days 1, 8 of a 21-day cycle) until disease progression, unacceptable toxic effects, or impossibility of the drug administration for any other reason. We estimated the efficacy and safety of treatment with eribulin in Russian patients with HER2-negative BC. Results. Objective response rate was achieved in 20.5% of cases, complete response rate was in 3.2%, partial - 17.3%, and the stable disease rate was marked in 52.7% of women, and in 19.7% of these cases was prolonged more than 6 months. The frequency of objective response was higher in luminal BC group compared with triple-negative BC: 23.5% vs 15.8%; tumor growth control 76.9% vs. 67.8%, respectively; p<0.05. Median progression-free survival was 4.83 months (5.17 months - luminal BC and 4.0 months - triple-negative BC). On application of eribulin in first-, second- and third-line treatment we achived maximum efficiency: the frequency of objective response rate was 24.2%, tumor growth control - 82.2%, median progression-free survival - 5.07 months; any data were achived on drug application in fourth-line and further lines of treatment: 15.4%, 58.6% and 4.27 months, respectively; p<0.05. We showed the group of women with "special response" to eribulin (72 cases, 19%) associated with the high efficacy of therapy, regardless of biological subtypes and metastases localization: objective response rate - 48.6%, long-term stable disease rate - 51.4%. The safety profile of eribulin was acceptable; the dose reduction to 1.1 mg/m² was required only in 14.2% of patients and after the reduction eribulin therapy was continued without moderate adverse events. Conclusions. Efficacy and safety of eribulin therapy in Russian patients completely confirm the results of earlier randomized studies. The combination of efficiency in tumors with different biological subtypes and a safety profile makes eribulin the therapeutic option of appling in patients with advanced anthracycline-and taxan-resistant BC.
