1 Herceptin ® : leading the way in metastatic breast cancer care Steffen Kahlert

2 Herceptin ® in metastatic breast cancer HER2-positive breast cancer is an aggressive cancer and is associated with a poor prognosis Herceptin ® is currently licensed for the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) –first-line in combination with docetaxel in patients with no prior chemotherapy for MBC –first-line in combination with paclitaxel in patients who have received prior anthracyclines or for whom an anthracyline is not suitable –as monotherapy in patients who have received prior treatment for MBC

3 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001)

4 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001): trial design HER2-positive MBC (IHC 3+ and/or FISH+) n=188 Docetaxel* 100mg/m 2 q3w x 6 Docetaxel 100mg/m 2 q3w x 6 Herceptin ® 4mg/kg loading,  2mg/kg weekly until PD + *Patients progressing on docetaxel alone could crossover to receive Herceptin ® Two patients did not receive study medication n=92 n=94 Marty M, et al. J Clin Oncol 2005;23:4265–74

5 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001): inclusion criteria MBC –measurable disease HER2-positive –IHC 3+ and/or FISH+ –IHC 2+ initially allowed (July 1999–August 2000) ECOG  2 Life expectancy  12 weeks LVEF >50% Adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal function Prior chemotherapy –none for MBC –no prior taxanes or anti-HER therapy Marty M, et al. J Clin Oncol 2005;23:4265–74

6 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001): patient demographics *Eight patients IHC 2+/FISH–; one patient IHC 0/1+/FISH unknown (docetaxel alone) Marty M, et al. J Clin Oncol 2005;23:4265–74

11 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001): non-haematological toxicity (grade 3/4) Adverse events occurring in ≥5% and congestive heart failure (CHF) Marty M, et al. J Clin Oncol 2005;23:4265–74

12 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001): haematological toxicity (grade 3/4) Marty M, et al. J Clin Oncol 2005;23:4265–74

13 Herceptin ® plus docetaxel (M77001): conclusions Adding Herceptin ® to docetaxel improves all clinical outcomes parameters –ORR (from 34 to 61%) –TTP (from 6.1 to 11.7 months) –OS (from 22.7 to 31.2 months) Herceptin ® adds little to the toxicity profile of docetaxel Herceptin ® plus docetaxel should be used upfront for greatest clinical benefit in patients with HER2-positive MBC These 24-month data provide evidence of a long-term survival benefit following the addition of Herceptin ® to docetaxel

33 Herceptin ® in MBC: conclusions In metastatic breast cancer patients –Herceptin ® in combination with chemotherapy leads to an improvement in survival compared to chemotherapy alone adverse events associated with chemotherapy are not exacerbated by addition of Herceptin ® –Herceptin ® monotherapy has also been shown to be effective Cardiac events are reversible and manageable –the rate of asymptomatic cardiac events in clinical trials has fallen to 2% based on selection criteria and cardiac monitoring
