LBA17Overall survival (OS) results from the phase III MONALEESA-2 (ML-2) trial of postmenopausal patients (pts) with hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HR+/HER2L) advanced breast cancer (ABC) treated with endocrine therapy (ET) ± ribociclib (RIB)

Background: The 21-Gene Recurrence Score® Assay (Oncotype DX®) has been validated as a prognostic and predictive tool in estrogen receptor (ER)+ breast cancer in multiple studies using archival specimens of clinical trials with long term follow up. Prospective outcome data from patients where treatment decisions incorporated the Recurrence Score results have not been reported. We evaluated treatments and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing Recurrence Score testing in 9 medical centers within Clalit Health Services (CHS), the largest HMO in Israel. Methods: Medical records of patients with N0/Nmic ER+ HER2-negative disease undergoing testing from 12/2004 to 12/2010 in 9 medical centers (Rabin, Lin, Soroka, Meir, Kaplan, Hadassah, Ha'emek, Rambam, and Shaare Zedek) within CHS were individually reviewed to verify treatments given, recurrence, and survival status. 5-year Kaplan-Meier (KM) and standard error estimates for distant recurrence and breast cancer specific survival were determined. Results: 1594 patients were evaluated with 5.9 years median follow-up. Median age, 61 (25-85) years; N0/Nmic (90%/10%); Grade I (16%), II (48%), III (16%), N/A (19%); histology, IDC (80%), lobular (13%), other (7%). Distribution of Recurrence Score risk groups (Recurrence Score results of <18, 18-30, ≥31): low (51%), intermediate (38%), and high (11%), with chemotherapy (CT) use of 1%, 26%, and 89%, respectively. Distant recurrence was reported in 17/813, 33/612, and 24/169 patients in the low, intermediate, and high Recurrence Score groups, respectively. In the high Recurrence Score group, distant recurrence was reported in 20/150 (13.3%) of CT-treated patients and in 4/19 (21.1%) of untreated patients. In the intermediate Recurrence Score group, the respective values were 9/162 (5.6%) and 24/450 (5.3%). The 5-year KM estimate for distant recurrence rate was 1.4% (95% CI: 0.9-2.3%) for the entire cohort, and 0.5% (95% CI: 0.2-1.6%), 1.2% (95% CI: 0.6-2.8%), and 6.9% (95% CI: 3.7-12.9), for the low, intermediate, and high Recurrence Score groups, respectively. The 5-year KM estimate for breast cancer specific survival was 98.4% (95% CI: 97.6-98.9%) for the entire cohort, and 99.9% (95% CI: 99.0-99.98%), 98.5% (95% CI: 97.1-99.2%) and 90.6% (95% CI: 84.5-94.4%), for the low, intermediate, and high Recurrence Score groups, respectively. Conclusions: These are the first prospective long term clinical outcome data from approximately 1600 patients for whom the 21-gene Recurrence Score assay has been incorporated in real-life clinical decision making. The documented use of CT was appropriately based on the Recurrence Score result, and the outcomes for recurrence and survival are consistent with previously reported prospective-retrospective studies of the 21-gene assay. The 5 year KM estimates for distant recurrence rate in patients with low and intermediate Recurrence Score results who were treated based upon their Recurrence Score results were very low (0.5% and 1.2%, respectively).

#4114 Background: Evidence indicates a direct molecular link between HER2 amplification and up-regulation of VEGF in HER2+ breast cancer. Concurrent over-expression of HER2 and VEGF is associated with a poorer clinical outcome than over-expression of either alone. These data provide the rationale for simultaneous blockade of both pathways. Pazopanib (P) is an oral angiogenesis inhibitor targeting VEGFR, PDGFR, and c-kit. Lapatinib (Tykerb®) (L) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor of EGFR (ErbB1) and HER2 (ErbB2). This study (VEG20007) evaluated the efficacy and safety of dual pathway inhibition in patients (pts) with HER2+ adv/met breast cancer.
 Methods: Eligible pts received no prior chemotherapy or HER2-directed therapy for met disease and had measurable disease per RECIST. Pts were enrolled in one of 2 cohorts. In cohort 1 (C1), pts were randomized to P 400 mg/d + L 1000 mg/d or L alone (1500 mg/d). Enrollment to cohort 2 (C2) began after completion of enrollment to C1. In C2 pts received the combination at doses of P 800 mg/d and L 1500 mg/d. Following disease assessment at week (wk) 12, pts with an objective response could continue on study treatment following re-consent; those with stable disease could continue only where trastuzumab was unavailable. The primary endpoint of C1 was progressive disease rate (PDR) at wk 12 in HER2 FISH+ pts. The primary endpoint of C2 is week 12 response rate in HER2 FISH+ pts.
 Results: 140 pts were included in the randomized cohort analysis which was previously reported [J Clin Onc 26:2008 (May 20 suppl; abstr 1016)]. Enrollment in C2 has been completed; 40 pts (36 confirmed FISH+) have been enrolled. A preliminary safety analysis has been performed. The most common adverse events of any grade were diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, hypertension, and rash. The most common laboratory abnormalities were ALT and AST increase. Efficacy data will be analyzed when the last pt has completed the week 12 assessment.
 Conclusion: This is the first Phase II trial to evaluate the combination of 2 oral targeted agents in first-line Her2+ adv/met breast cancer. The lower dose combination demonstrated improved response rate compared to L monotherapy. Previously unreported efficacy and safety data from the higher dose cohort will be presented.
