Abstract 1475
Background
Approximately 40% of patients (pts) with HR+, HER2– BC have mutations (mut) in PIK3CA with hyperactivation of the PI3K pathway and relative endocrine resistance. In the phase 3 SOLAR-1 trial, treatment with the α-selective PI3K inhibitor ALP with FUL significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) vs placebo [PBO] + FUL in the PIK3CA-mut cohort (median PFS [mPFS], 11.0 vs 5.7 mo; HR 0.65; P < 0.001). Here, we report data for pts with and without VM in the PIK3CA-mut cohort of SOLAR-1.
Methods
Pts with HR+, HER2– ABC with progression on/after aromatase inhibitor received ALP 300 mg QD (or PBO) + FUL 500 mg. Efficacy, including PFS and response, and safety were assessed. Pts were stratified according to presence of lung and/or liver metastases and prior CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment.
Results
Of 341 pts with PIK3CA mut, 193 (56.6%) had VM. Tumor responses were improved with ALP vs PBO in pts with or without VM (Table). The majority (n = 170; 88.1%) of pts with VM had lung and/or liver metastases and mPFS was 9.0 vs 3.7 mo in the ALP (n = 84) vs PBO (n = 86) arms (HR 0.62; 95% CI, 0.44-0.89). PFS HRs (95% CI) for ALP vs PBO in pts with presence of liver metastases (ALP, n = 49; PBO, n = 54) or lung involvement (ALP, n = 57; PBO, n = 68) were 0.58 (0.37-0.90) and 0.65 (0.42-1.01), respectively. PFS HRs (95% CI) for ALP vs PBO in pts without lung and/or liver metastases (ALP, n = 85; PBO, n = 86) and in pts with bone-only metastases (ALP, n = 42; PBO, n = 35) were 0.69 (0.47-1.01) and 0.62 (0.33-1.18), respectively. mPFS for pts with bone-only metastases in the ALP vs PBO arms was 19.1 vs 13.0 mo.Table:

Visceral Metastases, includes pts with lung, liver, and other visceral metastases | Nonvisceral Metastases, includes pts with bone-only metastases | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
(n = 193) | (n = 148) | |||
ALP+FUL | PBO+FUL | ALP+FUL | PBO+FUL | |
(n = 93) | (n = 100) | (n = 76) | (n = 72) | |
Best % change from baseline in sum of target lesion diameters | 79% | 43% | 69% | 45% |
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR), n (%) | 52 (56) | 38 (38) | 52 (68) | 40 (56) |
Conclusions
Treatment benefit from ALP + FUL was maintained across pt subgroups analyzed, including pts with VM and bone-only metastases, and was consistent with the benefit observed in the PIK3CA-mut cohort in SOLAR-1.
