Tamoxifen (TAM) or a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor (NSAI) with ribociclib (RIB) in premenopausal patients (pts) with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative (HER2–) advanced breast cancer (ABC): MONALEESA-7 subgroup analysis

Background: In the MONALEESA-7 study (NCT02278120), RIB + TAM/NSAI + goserelin significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) and had a manageable safety profile vs placebo (PBO) + TAM/NSAI in premenopausal pts with HR+, HER2– ABC. Here we present data for the TAM and NSAI subgroups. Methods: Premenopausal pts (N = 672) with HR+, HER2– ABC (≤1 line of chemotherapy; no prior endocrine therapy [ET] for ABC) were randomized 1:1 to RIB (600 mg/day, 3 weeks on/1 week off) or PBO + either TAM (20 mg/day) or NSAI (letrozole [2.5 mg/day] or anastrozole [1 mg/day]) + goserelin (3.6 mg every 28 days). Primary endpoint: locally assessed PFS. A predefined subgroup analysis evaluated PFS by ET partner (TAM or NSAI). Results: 177 (26%) pts received TAM (RIB vs PBO: 87 vs 90) and 495 (74%) received an NSAI (248 vs 247). As of August 20, 2017, treatment was ongoing in 49% vs 31% of pts in the TAM subgroup and 53% vs 38% in the NSAI subgroup; the most common reason for discontinuation was disease progression (TAM 39% vs 54%; NSAI 35% vs 51%). PFS was prolonged for RIB vs PBO in the TAM (median 22.1 months [mo] vs 11.0 mo; hazard ratio 0.585; 95% CI 0.387–0.884) and NSAI (median 27.5 mo vs 13.8 mo; hazard ratio 0.569; 95% CI 0.436–0.743) subgroups. The most common Grade (G) 3 adverse events (AEs; regardless of causality; ≥5% of pts; RIB vs PBO) were neutropenia (TAM 39% vs 2%; NSAI 55% vs 3%), leukopenia (TAM 8% vs 1%; NSAI 15% vs 1%), elevated GGT (TAM 6% vs 3%; NSAI <1% vs 4%), elevated ALT (TAM 7% vs 2%; NSAI 5% vs 1%), and hypertension (TAM 6% vs 2%; NSAI 2% vs 3%); the only G4 AE in ≥ 5% of pts was neutropenia (TAM 9% vs 1%; NSAI 10% vs < 1%). Increases >60 ms from baseline in the QTcF interval (RIB vs PBO; TAM 16% vs 7%; NSAI 7% vs 0%) and new QTcF >480 ms (TAM 11% vs 1%; NSAI 5% vs 1%) were more common with TAM; there were no associated clinical symptoms or arrhythmias. Conclusions: RIB demonstrated consistent treatment benefit vs PBO in premenopausal pts with HR+, HER2– ABC regardless of ET partner (TAM or NSAI). The safety profiles of RIB + ET were manageable and consistent, with the exception of QTc findings, which were more prevalent with TAM.
