Introduction and study objective
• Trastuzumab-based therapy is the current standard of care inHER2-positive MBC1
– However, progression of breast cancer still occurs in a majority of patients2
• Pertuzumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody and HER2 dimerization inhibitor that binds HER2 at a different epitope than trastuzumab3
• Phase II trials in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer have shown improved activity, and a good safety profile with pertuzumab-trastuzumab-based therapy4,5
• CLEOPATRA assessed efficacy and safety of a pertuzumab-trastuzumab-based regimen in first-line treatment of patients with HER2-positive MBC6

Study design
MBC, metastatic breast cancer; PD, progressive disease
Patients withHER2-positive MBCcentrally confirmed
(N=808)
Placebo + trastuzumab
1:1
• Randomization was stratified by geographic region and prior treatment status (neo/adjuvant chemotherapy received or not)
• Study dosing q3w:- Pertuzumab/Placebo: 840 mg loading dose, 420 mg maintenance- Trastuzumab: 8 mg/kg loading dose, 6 mg/kg maintenance - Docetaxel: 75 mg/m2, escalating to 100 mg/m2 if tolerated

Key patient eligibility criteria
• Centrally confirmed HER2-positive (IHC 3+ and/or FISH-positive; ratio ≥2.0) locally recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic breast cancer
• Measurable and/or non-measurable disease
• LVEF ≥50% at baseline
• No more than one hormonal regimen for MBC prior to randomization
• (Neo)adjuvant systemic breast cancer chemotherapy including trastuzumab and/or taxanes allowed if followed by a disease-free interval of ≥12 months
• No history of CHF or LVEF decline to <50% during or after prior trastuzumab therapy
CHF, congestive heart failure; FISH, fluorescence in situ hybridization; IHC, immunohistochemistry; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction;MBC, metastatic breast cancer

Study endpoints
• Primary endpoint– Independently assessed progression-free survival (PFS)
• Secondary endpoints
– Overall survival
– Objective response rate
– Safety
– PFS by investigator assessment
– Duration of response
– Evaluation of biomarkers and correlation with clinical outcomes
– Time to symptom progressionBaselga et al. Clin Breast Cancer 2010.

Statistics
• Progression-free survival– 800 patients and ~381 PFS events were required to
provide 80% power to detect a 33% improvement in independently assessed PFS(HR = 0.75) at the two-sided significance level of 5%
• Overall survival– 800 patients and 385 OS events were required to provide
80% power to detect a 33% improvement in OS (HR = 0.75) at the two-sided significance level of 5%
– The interim OS analysis (estimated at 50% of events for final analysis) was planned at the time of the primary independently assessed PFS analysis

Conclusions
• The combination of pertuzumab with trastuzumab plus docetaxel, as compared with placebo plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel, when used as first-line treatment for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, significantly prolonged progression-free survival, with no increase in cardiac toxic effects.
