Abstract OT1-03-04: Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd), a TROP2 antibody-drug conjugate, vs investigators’ choice of chemotherapy in previously-treated, inoperable or metastatic HR+/HER2– breast cancer: TROPION-Breast01

Abstract

Background: Chemotherapy is the main treatment in patients with pre-treated endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2– metastatic breast cancer, but has limited efficacy and substantial toxicities. The antibody-drug conjugate Dato-DXd consists of a humanized IgG1 mAb targeting TROP2 attached via a stable cleavable linker to a topoisomerase I (TopI) inhibitor payload. Heavily pre-treated patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer in the TROPION-PanTumor01 (NCT03401385) study of Dato-DXd showed a manageable safety profile and highly encouraging objective response rates (ORR by blinded independent central review [BICR]: 34% in all patients; 52% in patients treatment-naïve to TopI inhibitor-based therapies). The metastatic HR+/HER2– breast cancer cohort of TROPION-PanTumor01 has completed enrollment (n=41); data are currently maturing. Trial design: TROPION-Breast01 (NCT05104866) is an ongoing, global, phase 3, open-label, randomized trial evaluating efficacy and safety of Dato-DXd vs investigators’ choice of chemotherapy (ICC) in patients with inoperable or metastatic HR+/HER2– breast cancer. Patients (n≈700) are randomized 1:1 to Dato-DXd 6 mg/kg IV Q3W or ICC (eribulin, capecitabine, vinorelbine, or gemcitabine) until progression. Adults with an ECOG performance status of 0–1, who experienced progression on or are unsuitable for endocrine therapy, and received 1–2 prior lines of standard-of-care chemotherapy in the inoperable or metastatic setting are eligible. Monotherapy treatment with inhibitors of mTOR, PD-[L]1, CDK4/6 and PARP do not count as prior chemotherapy lines. Patients must have ≥1 measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1 and an archival or fresh formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tumor sample. Clinically inactive brain metastases are permitted. Dual primary endpoints are progression-free survival (PFS) by BICR, and overall survival. Secondary endpoints include PFS per investigator, ORR, disease control rate, patient-reported outcomes, and Dato-DXd pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity. Exploratory endpoints include TROP2 expression and exposure–efficacy relationship. Patients are stratified by number of prior chemotherapy lines, prior CDK4/6 inhibitor use, and region. At the time of writing 236 patients have been enrolled across 19 countries.
