Background

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the 5th most common cause of cancer-related death in Chinese women with over 416,000 new cases and over 117,000 deaths estimated in 2020. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents 10%-20% of cases in women with breast cancer. Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is a Trop-2-directed antibody-drug conjugate and is approved for second-line or later (2L+) treatment of metastatic (m)TNBC in multiple countries, including the US and China. In the pivotal phase 3 study ASCENT, which enrolled predominantly non-Asian patients (pts), SG demonstrated improved efficacy outcomes vs treatment of physician’s choice (TPC) in pts with mTNBC treated in 2L+, with a manageable safety profile. For pts treated with SG, median progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR) were improved vs TPC (Bardia A et al, 2021). The single-arm phase 2b EVER-132-001 study was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of 2L+ SG in Chinese pts with mTNBC. In preliminary findings from EVER-132-001, SG demonstrated substantial clinical activity and a manageable safety profile (Xu B et al, 2023). Here, we present additional efficacy and safety results from EVER-132-001, including the first report of median OS.

Methods

Pts with mTNBC who had received at least 2 prior lines of chemotherapy for mTNBC received SG (10 mg/kg IV on days 1 and 8, Q3W). The primary end point was ORR per independent review committee (IRC). Secondary end points included duration of response (DoR) per IRC, clinical benefit rate (CBR) per IRC, PFS per IRC, OS, and safety.

Results

Eighty pts were enrolled, with a median age of 48 years (range 24-70). Pts had received a median of 4 prior treatment regimens (range 2-8), and 59% of pts had ECOG performance status of 1. At the data cutoff, September 19, 2022, with a median follow-up of 14.7 mo (range 1.2-25.3), median OS was 14.7 mo (95% CI 10.3-18.3) and the OS rate at 12 months was 54% (95% CI 42-64) (Table). ORR was 40% (95% CI 29-52) with median DoR of 11.6 mo (95% CI 7.0-13.8), and CBR was 46% (95% CI 35-58) (Table). Median PFS was 5.6 mo (95% CI 4.1-8.3) (Table). Grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 79% of pts, and TEAEs leading to dose reduction, treatment interruption, and treatment discontinuation occurred in 20%, 48%, and 8% of patients, respectively (Table). The most common TEAEs of any grade were decreased neutrophil count (85%), anemia (84%), and decreased white blood cell count (83%). The most common grade ≥ 3 TEAEs were decreased neutrophil count (64%), decreased white blood cell count (50%), and anemia (23%).

Conclusions

SG continued to demonstrate substantial clinical activity, with OS, ORR, DoR, CBR, and PFS results in the EVER-132-001 trial, consistent with the phase 3 ASCENT trial of SG in mTNBC. TEAEs were manageable and no new safety signals were identified. These results support the use of SG as a new standard of care for Chinese pts with pretreated mTNBC.
