Abstract Background PARP inhibitors (PARPi) improves progression free survival among patients with HER2 negative (HER2-ve) advanced breast cancer (ABC) and a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation compared to physician choice of chemotherapy (CT). The AIM of this prospective study was to evaluate the clinical benefit of PARPi treatment in terms of response, outcomes and survival by breast cancer type and treatment in a Latin-American population. Methods We analyzed data of patients with HER2-ve ABC with germline and/or somatic mutation of BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 or in the Homologous Recombination Repair genes, treated with olaparib or talazoparib in daily clinical practice by oncologist from Argentina and México. From September 2019 and April 2023, we collected baseline characteristics, previous systemic treatments, type and pattern of use, treatment beyond PARPi progression, and patient predisposition. Objective responses, best response rate, real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) and real-world overall survival (rwOS) were analyzed with R software and RStudio version 14.0. Results After a median follow-up of 18.07 months (CI95% 10.53 - 30.07), 51 patients were treated with PARPi. Mean age at start treatment was 47,08 years. 62.7% had ER+ve/HER2-ve and 35.3% had triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). 62.7% and 37.3% of patients received talalaparib and olaparib, respectively. BRCA 1 and 2 germline mutations were the most common alterations found in 96% of patients. 37.5% of patients received platinum-based CT (PbCT) in the (neo)adjuvant/metastatic setting. 57.5% had visceral metastasis and the median number of metastatic sites were 2 (range 1-4). Median number of lines at the time to start PARPi was 2 (range 0-8), 23.5% and 31.4% received PARPi in the 1st line and 2nd line, respectively. The rwORR was 47.0%, and the median rwPFS1 was 7.77 months (CI95% 5.67-14.7). There was a tendence of better rwPFS1 in patients without previous CT versus previous CT in the advance setting, 14.30 months (CI95% 6.47-NR) versus 6.37 months (CI95% 5.03-8.73), respectively (p 0.084). The median rwOS was 26.97 months (CI95% 13.50-NR) and higher in the subgroup of patients naïve for CT versus previous exposure to CT in the advance setting, the median rwOS was 32.1 months (CI95% 27.0-NR) versus 13.0 (IC95%10.1-NR), respectively (p 0.022). 23.5% of patients progressed on PARPi during the first 6 months of treatment, 32.4% with visceral compromise, 27.8% with visceral crisis, and 26.5% with ≥2 metastatic sites. CT was the treatment of choice in most patients (55.3%). The medium rwPFS2 (next treatment after PARPi failure) was 4.00 months (CI95% 3.43 – 7.13). Treatment was discontinued for adverse events in 4.0 % of patients. Conclusion This is the first Latin-American evidence that replicate the data already published in randomized clinical trials and other scanty real-world evidence studies in this field, positive results in rwORR and rwPFS, encouraging data in rwOS. Notably, high proportion of patients with visceral progression even with visceral crisis and need for CT. Interestingly, similar rwOS results among subgroups (TNBC versus ER+ve/HER2-ve, talazoparib versus Olaparib, etc). &amp;lt;graphic&amp;gt; Citation Format: Fernando E.
