Impact of RNA Signatures on pCR and Survival after 12-Week Neoadjuvant Pertuzumab plus Trastuzumab with or without Paclitaxel in the WSG-ADAPT HER2+/HR- Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To identify associations of biological signatures and stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTIL) with pathological complete response (pCR; ypT0 ypN0) and survival in the Phase II WSG-ADAPT HER2+/HR- trial (NCT01817452).

Experimental design

Patients with cT1-cT4c, cN0-3 HER2+/HR- early breast cancer (EBC) were randomized to pertuzumab+trastuzumab (P+T, n = 92) or P+T+paclitaxel (n = 42). Gene expression signatures were analyzed in baseline biopsies using NanoString Breast Cancer 360 panel (n = 117); baseline and on-treatment (week 3) sTIL levels were available in 119 and 76 patients, respectively. Impacts of standardized gene expression signatures on pCR and invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) were estimated by logistic and Cox regression.
