Advanced Breast Cancer

Decision Points: Chemotherapy for Advanced Breast Cancer
• When to use chemotherapy for ER/PR+ or HER2+
disease
• Initial agents
• Combination vs. Single Agents
• Use of maintenance or holidays
• Options for refractory disease
• Triple negative subsets, basal/BRCA-related –
should they be treated differently?
Sequence of Therapy for Advanced Triple Negative or Hormonally
Refractory Breast Cancer
• Prior response/stability to
therapy
• Low disease burden, minimal
visceral involvement
• Low level of symptoms
• Monotherapy
• Significant visceral
involvement
• Significant symptoms
• Likely clinical sequelae
with small degree of
progression
• Combination therapy e.g.:
• Paclitaxel + gemcitabine
• Docetaxel + capecitabine
Maintenance
Therapy
“Induction”
• Drug Holiday
?Max Response
• e.g. Eribulin

What Constitutes “Best First Line” Single Agent Therapy?
• Numerous agents are active
• Effects on survival may be difficult to discern
because of heterogeneity of subsequent therapy
• Prior therapy with adjuvant anthracycline/taxane
or taxane-based therapy is common
• Initial therapy is typically taxane or capecitabine
• Taxanes are schedule dependent
• Optimal capecitabine dose undefined
• No established best initial therapy
