Abstract 4332

Background

Previous data has shown that chemotherapy (CT)-induced amenorrhea was associated with a better DFS and OS in premenopausal patients with EBC, regardless of the hormone-receptor status (Swain et al. NEJM 2010 ).

Methods

740 patients (pts) aged ≤45yrs treated with anthracycline/taxane-based CT for EBC from 4 German neo-/adjuvant trials were included. Centrally assessed estradiol and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in paired blood samples collected at baseline and 4 weeks after the last therapy infusion were considered. CIOF was defined as estradiol <52.2 ng/L and FSH >12.4IU/l after CT for those pts with premenopausal hormone levels at baseline. 4-year DFS and OS (rate, hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI)) overall and in subgroups by hormone-receptor status (positive, negative) and age (≤30, 31-35, 36-40, >40yrs) are presented.

Results

Median follow-up was 49.6 (range 48.8-50.3) months. 4-year DFS and OS rates as well as HR overall and in subgroups are presented in the Table below. Pts with CIOF had a better DFS compared to pts without CIOF (HR = 0.47, 95%CI 0.31-0.71). The DFS advantage was significant in pts with hormone-receptor positive (HR = 0.38, 95%CI 0.22-0.64) EBC. A trend towards a better OS was observed only for pts with hormone-receptor positive EBC (HR = 0.45, 95%CI 0.19-1.05). Within age groups, CIOF showed a statistically significant improvement in DFS only in women ≤30yrs (HR = 0.21, 95%CI 0.05-0.97). No statistically significant OS benefit was observed in any of the age groups. Only pts >40yrs showed a trend towards a better OS (HR = 0.35, 95%CI 0.11-1.16).Table:

Conclusions

Pts with CIOF after anthracycline/taxane-based CT for EBC show a better DFS, especially in women with hormone-receptor positive EBC or younger than 30 years. The improvement in DFS translates in a survival advantage in pts with hormone-receptor positive EBC.
