Abstract 3792

Background

LRR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for BC may impact patient’s outcome. This study aimed to evaluate the rates of LRR as first event after NACT and to identify independent predictors of LRR.

Methods

A total of 10075 women with primary BC and available follow-up from 9 prospective neoadjuvant trials were included in the pooled analysis. The main endpoint was cumulative incidence rates of LRR as first event after NACT; distant recurrence, secondary malignancy or death was defined as competing event. To identify predictors of LRR, surgery type, pathological complete response (pCR=ypT0 ypN0), BC subtypes and other risk factors were evaluated using Fine-Gray’s regression model. The two-sided significance level was set to α = 0.05.

Results

After a median follow-up in the entire cohort of 67 months (range 0-215 months), 959 (9.5%) LRRs as first event were observed. Age ( < =50 vs > 50 years; p < 0.001), clinical nodal status (cN- vs cN+; p < 0.001), tumour grade (G1-2 vs G3; p = 0.001), pCR (no vs yes; p < 0.001) and BC subtypes (HR+/HER2- vs HR+/HER2+, HR-/HER2+, TNBC; p < 0.001) but not surgery type (BCS vs mastectomy; p = 0.514) were significant independent predictors of LRR in multivariate analysis. LRR rates among BC subtypes were lower in pts achieving pCR vs non-pCR: HR+/HER2- (3.9% vs 5.9%; HR = 0.56 [95%CI 0.32-0.98]; p = 0.043); HR+/HER2 + (4.8% vs 8.1%; HR = 0.61 [95%CI 0.37-1.02]; p = 0.058); HR-/HER2 + (3.1% vs 14.8%; HR = 0.22 [94%CI 0.12-0.39]; p < 0.001) and in TNBC (4.2% vs 18.5%; HR = 0.25 [95%CI 0.18-0.35]; p < 0.001). Within the non-pCR subgroup, LRR rates were significantly higher in pts with HR-/HER2+ and TNBC vs HR+/HER2- BC (HR = 2.34 [95%CI 1.83-2.99]; p < 0.001 and HR = 3.02 [95%CI 2.54-3.60]; p < 0.001, respectively) as well as in pts treated with mastectomy than with BCS (HR = 1.22 [95%CI 1.06-1.1.41]; p = 0.007).

Conclusions

Young age, node-positive and G3 tumours as well as non-pCR status and TNBC were found to significantly increase the risk of LRR as first event after NACT. Pts with HR-/HER2+ and TNBC not achieving pCR were at highest risk of LRR. Hence, these BC subtypes might be considered for additional post-neoadjuvant treatment approaches.
