Abstract 277P
Background
Transaminase elevations are a known adverse event (AE) of special interest with RIB + ET. Understanding the incidence, duration, and management of these AEs is critical for maximizing treatment benefit with RIB + ET. We present a descriptive analysis of liver enzyme elevations with RIB + ET across multiple trials.
Methods
Data from phase III registrational and phase IIIb expanded population (representative of real-world) trials were evaluated, including pts with HR+/HER2− advanced BC treated with RIB 600 mg + ET in MONALEESA (ML)-2, -3, and -7 and COMPLEEMENT-1, and pts from NATALEE with HR+/HER2− early BC treated with RIB 400 mg + ET. Incidence, time to onset, duration, and management of liver enzyme elevations were evaluated across each trial.
Results
With RIB + ET, the rates of all-grade (G) alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevations ranged from 13% to 19%; events were mostly G1/2 (Table). ALT/AST elevations were identified by recommended monitoring (serial liver function tests) and occurred early in RIB treatment. Among pts with G≥3 events, median time to onset ranged from 2.6 to 4.9 mo for each trial and median duration ranged from 0.7 to 1.6 mo; these events resolved with the current dose modification guidelines. Cases of Hy’s law occurred in ≤1% of pts and were effectively managed by discontinuing RIB; most cases (95%) were resolved or resolving within 2.1 to 17.5 mo of RIB discontinuation. Discontinuation of RIB due to ALT/AST elevations was consistent across trials and occurred in ≤7% of pts.
Conclusions
A similar incidence of liver events across trials at both the RIB 600- and RIB 400-mg doses suggests that dose does not play a key causative role in these AEs. Overall, cases of liver enzyme elevation were generally low grade and manageable with recommended dose modification guidance; severe cases were rare and reversible after discontinuation of RIB.
