1 The Role of PARP inhibitors in Breast Cancer QROC November 5 th, 2010 Rebecca Dent, MD FRCP(C) Sunnybrook Odette Cancer Center Toronto, Canada

2 Potential Conflict of Interest Dr. Rebecca Dent –AstraZeneca, consultant and honorariat (2007-2010) –Roche, consultant and honorariat (2007-2010) –Sanofis-Aventis, consultant and honorariat (2007-2010)

3 Why did the Scientific Committee ask the young investigator from Sunnybrook to talk about PARP inhibitors in breast cancer? Two Reasons: 1.Smallest study evaluating PARP inhibitors (but provocative!) 2.Large clinical practice of TNBC and BRCA mutation carriers

4 Achilles’ Heel: A deadly weakness in spite of overall strength, that can actually lead to downfall

5 Neoadjuvant endocrine responses in ER + disease can be prolonged and gratifying at very little cost! Can we do this for triple negative and BRCA related cancers?

6 PARP inhibitors – Finding the Achilles’ Heel in BRCA related Cancers

7 BRCA2 -/- BRCA2 +/+ BRCA2 +/- Increased sensitivity of BRCA1 -/- and BRCA2 - /- cells to PARP inhibition BRCA1 -/- BRCA1 +/+ BRCA1 +/- No difference in sensitivity between heterozygous and wild-type BRCA cells Farmer et al. Nature 2005; 434:917-21 Targeted inhibition  selective and less toxic therapy

9 Olaparib (AZD2281) Oral AstraZeneca Compound (Formerly KuDOS)

10 Olaparib A novel, orally active PARP inhibitor A phase I trial identified olaparib (AZD2281; KU-0059436) 400 mg bid as the maximum tolerated dose 1 with a signal of efficacy in BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer Most common toxicities: CTCAE grade 1 and 2 nausea and fatigue Significant PARP inhibition and tumor response at olaparib doses 100–400 mg bid 1. Yap T et al. J Clin Oncol 2007;25(18S):abst 3529; 2. Fong P et al. J Clin Oncol 2008;26(15S):abst 5510.

11 Phase II trial of Olaparib in BRCA-deficient advanced breast cancer To assess the efficacy and tolerability of oral olaparib in BRCA1/ BRCA2 mutation carriers with breast cancer Multicenter proof-of-concept phase II study, single-arm sequential cohort design Confirmed BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation Advanced refractory breast cancer (stage IIIB/IIIC/IV) after failure of ≥1 prior chemotherapy for advanced disease Olaparib 400 mg po bid (MTD) 28-day cycles; n=27 Cohort 1 (enrolled first) Olaparib 100 mg po bid 28-day cycles; n=27 Cohort 2 * * Following an interim review of the emerging efficacy of each cohort, patients ongoing in 100 mg bid cohort were permitted to crossover to receive the 400 mg bid dose Tutt A. et al.

17 Olaparib Phase2 - Conclusions In BRCA mutation carriers: – single agent oral olaparib 400 mg bid has substantial activity with ORR 41% and median PFS 5.7 months – well tolerated Not all patients with BRCA mutations responded – Are there different Homologous Recombination Repair Defects affecting sensitivity to PARP inhibition? – Is there something else that predicts response to PARP inhibition? Likely need functional assay! – Perhaps subtypes of sporadic breast cancer may benefit from PARP inhibitors

18 Veliparib (ABT-888) Oral Abbott Compound

19 Phase II Study of oral Veliparib Plus Temozolomide in Metastatic Breast Cancer Efficacy appears to be restricted to BRCA1/2 mutation carriers. Further evaluation of this combination is ongoing in BRCA1/2-mutated cancers.

21 Proof of Concept Phase 2 trials Studies with Olaparib and Veliparib confirm that BRCA related cancers deficient in specific aspects of DNA repair are sensitive to agents that exploit this pathway, unless resistance occurs... Major mechanism of resistance...not in PARP genes but...re-expression of a functional form of BRCA2 and in some cases almost the full-length protein

22 Resistance to PARP inhibitors Reversion of BRCA2 mutations Edwards et al. Nature 451: 1111-1115, 2008 Restoration of the open reading frame of BRCA1 or 2 by intragenic deletion Partial function of BRCA is restored and cells become competent for HR repair

23 Cisplatin Resistance in tumors Ovarian tumors with BRCA2 mutations highly sensitive to cisplatin but resistance develops Analysis of resistant tumor line revealed reversion of BRCA2 mutation as with PARP inhibitors Implications: -Phase 2 Olaparib study showed that pts who progressed on platinum therapy rarely responded to Olaparib =but too soon to conclude cross- resistance Sakai et al. Nature 451:1116-1120,2008

24 What is the Role of PARP inhibitors in Triple Negative Breast Cancer? BRCA and TNBC

25 Theorem: Shared genome-wide expression array patterns between BRCA1-mutant and basal breast cancer may reflect shared defects in DNA repair processes Corollary: Sporadic basal breast cancers may be especially sensitive to DNA-damaging agents 25

39 Lessons from Study 11 Other than neutropenia, well tolerated therapy – Little to no neurotoxicity, is this related to other physiological roles of PARP? Other Important Observations – Patients exhibited delayed response to Olaparib (implications for neoadjuvant studies with PARPi) – Differential response to treatment (response in lung, progression lymph nodes) – implications for clinical trials Expansion cohort evaluation different schedules of Olaparib Dent, R et al.

45 Summary Proof of Concept that triple negative breast cancers may be susceptible to PARP inhibition – Impressive improvement in ORR, CBR, PFS and overall survival BSI-201 + gemcitabine/carboplatin was well tolerated and did not potentiate chemotherapy-related toxicities

46 Questions Are the platinum and PARP inhibitor effects additional or synergistic? What is the activity of single agent BSI-201 in pts with TNBC? Why does BSI-201 not show significant myelosuppresion compared to oral PARP inhibitors?

47 Development in PARP inhibitors in TN Breast Cancer Challenges Triple Negative Breast Cancer Defining Triple Negative Breast Cancers Identifying Subset with Homologous Recombination Deficiency What are the Standards of Care for Treatment? What should be the comparators? PARP inhibitors Dosing: IV vs. PO Schedule: Intermittent vs. Continuous Timing: Delivery before, during or after chemotherapy Are they best combined with DNA damaging agent? Role of Resistance
