BD is a widespread vasculitis affecting young people and involving concurrently or consecutively nearly all organs and systems. Treatment results in better prognosis even when vital organs are involved.

Background: TNBC patients with homologous recombination (HR) deficient tumors have significantly higher pathologic complete response (pCR, ypT0/is ypN0) rates when treated with platinum-based chemotherapy regimens than TNBC patients whose tumors are HR non-deficient. We performed a pooled analysis of 5 phase II studies that included patients with TNBC treated with neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy to better estimate the pCR rates amongst HR deficient and HR non-deficient tumors. Methods: Patients with TNBC and known HR deficiency status from the following clinical trials were available for analysis: PrECOG 0105 (N=72), NCT00148694/NCT00580333 (N=50), NCT01372579 (N=26), TBCRC 008 (N=18). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimens included 1) carboplatin, gemcitabine, iniparib, 2) cisplatin with or without bevacizumab 3) carboplatin, eribulin, 4) carboplatin, nab-paclitaxel, with or without vorinostat. HR deficiency status was defined as a high HRD score (42 or higher) and/or presence of a BRCA1/2 tumor mutation (tBRCA). Logistic regression models were used to adjust for study effects. The addition of data from the TNBC platinum-treated arm of GeparSixto (n=101) to this pooled analysis will be available at the time of presentation bringing the total sample size to 267. Results: pCR was achieved in 51 patients (31%) and 104 patients (63%) were HR deficient (31 with high HRD score and tBRCA mutation, 67 with high HRD score only, and 6 with tBRCA mutation only). Patients with HR deficient tumors were more likely to achieve a pCR than those with HR non-deficient tumors: 44% vs. 8% (p<0.01). When adjusting for study effects in separate logistic regression models, patients with HR deficient tumors (OR=12.5), with tBRCA mutations irrespective of HRD score (OR=2.3), or with high HRD scores (OR=14.6) were more likely to have a pCR (see Table).

This pooled analysis suggests that HRD can be used to identify TNBC patients with a high probability of obtaining pCR with a platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen.
