Page 3: Endocrine therapy for advanced ER positive/HER2 negative ......“Endocrine therapy is the preferred option for hormone receptor positive disease, even in the presence of visceral

• Endocrine therapy plus CDK 4-6 inhibitors as a new standard

of care for HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer

• Endocrine sensitive and endocrine resistant disease

• The PALOMA, MONARCH and MONALEESA programs

• Positioning of CDK 4-6 inhibitors in standard clinical practice

Outline

Page 4: Endocrine therapy for advanced ER positive/HER2 negative ......“Endocrine therapy is the preferred option for hormone receptor positive disease, even in the presence of visceral

Top line recommendations from ESO-ESMO ABC4 panel

•Cardoso F, et al. Annals of Oncology. 2018

“Endocrine therapy is the preferred option for

hormone receptor positive disease, even in the

presence of visceral disease, unless there is visceral

crisis or concern/proof of endocrine resistance”

Page 5: Endocrine therapy for advanced ER positive/HER2 negative ......“Endocrine therapy is the preferred option for hormone receptor positive disease, even in the presence of visceral

How to select first line?

PRIMARY ENDOCRINE RESISTANCE

Relapse while on the first 2 years of

adjuvant ET, or PD within first 6 months

of 1st line ET for MBC, while on ET

SECONDARY (ACQUIRED) ENDOCRINE RESISTANCE

Relapse while on adjuvant ET but after the first 2 years,

or relapse within 12 months of completing adjuvant ET,

or PD ≥ 6 months after initiating ET for MBC, while on ET

FALCON: Phase III study design

• Randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, international, multicentre study

• Follow-up for disease progression and survival

• Randomisation of 450 patients was planned to achieve 306 progression events; if the true PFS HR was 0.69 this would provide 90% power

for statistical significance at the 5% two-sided level (log-rank test)

• Stratification factors: prior chemotherapy for advanced disease; measurable vs. non-measurable disease; locally advanced vs. metastatic

disease

• Subgroup analysis of PFS for pre-defined baseline covariates

• aAssessed via RECIST 1.1, surgery / radiotherapy for disease worsening, or death; bInterim analysis

at the time of PFS analysis

• EDoCB, expected duration of clinical benefit; EDoR, expected duration of response; FACT-B,

Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – Breast; HRQoL, health related quality of life; OS,

overall survival; ORR, overall response rate; TOI, Trial Outcome Index. • Robertson JFR, et al. Lancet. 2016;388:2997–3005.

Alpelisib and PIK3CA mutation

– PI3K includes catalytic and regulatory subunits;

PIK3CA encodes the α-isoform of catalytic

subunit1,2

• Activation of this subunit can lead to pathway

hyperactivation

– Pan-PI3K inhibitors targeted multiple isoforms of

PI3K, which leads to excess toxicities and

marginal efficacy3–5

– Alpelisib (BYL719) is an oral inhibitor of the PI3K

α-isoform6,7

– Alpelisib has demonstrated antitumor activity in

preclinical models harboring PIK3CA alterations6,8

– In a Phase Ib trial, alpelisib +

fulvestrant was administered in

heavily pretreated patients with

PIK3CA-altered ER+ ABC (median 5

lines of prior therapy)1

– In patients with PIK3CA-altered

disease, alpelisib plus fulvestrant led

– In this trial, the potential clinical

activity of alpelisib in patients with

Statistical analyses

The primary analysis population was all patients in the PIK3CA-mutant cohort*

• Two interim analyses for PFS (futility and efficacy) were performed†

• The primary endpoint would be met at the final PFS analysis if p<0.02

PFS was analyzed in the PIK3CA-non-mutant cohort as a proof of concept‡

Safety was analysed for all patients who received ≥1 dose of study treatment, in both cohorts

• *PFS was tested using a 3-look group-sequential design with 83.8% power to detect HR=0.60 using one-sided, 2.0% significance level for 243 PFS events.Median PFS was estimated using Kaplan–Meier method, HR for PFS was estimated using a stratified Cox regression model; the p-value was estimated using a stratified log-rank test. At the final

PFS analysis, superiority was declared if one-sided p-value was ≤0.0199 (Z=2.054). Audit-based BIRC PFS review was carried out in 50% of randomized patients in the PIK3CA-mutant cohort.

• †Superiority was declared at interim efficacy analysis if one-sided p-value was ≤0.0001 (Z≥3.719; Haybittle–Peto stopping boundary).

• ‡Proof of concept criteria: estimated hazard ratio ≤ 0.60 and posterior probability ≥ 90% that HR was < 1. Confidence level for the proof of concept analysis was 0.5%.

Conclusions

– SOLAR-1 is the first Phase III trial of an α-specific PI3K inhibitor in HR+, HER2– advanced breast cancer,

and alpelisib is the first PI3K inhibitor to show clinically meaningful, statistically significant results in breast

cancer

– PFS was significantly prolonged with the addition of alpelisib to fulvestrant, vs placebo + fulvestrant, in

patients with PIK3CA-mutant disease

• Median PFS = 11.0 months vs 5.7 months; hazard ratio = 0.65; p = 0.00065

• The proof-of-concept criteria were not met in the PIK3CA-non-mutant cohort

– Treatment benefit was consistent across patient subgroups in the PIK3CA-mutant cohort

– The safety profile was as expected, and the majority of AEs were grade 1/2 in severity

• Hyperglycemia and rash were managed by dose modification and concomitant medical intervention as directed by

the study protocol

– Alpelisib + fulvestrant is a potential new treatment option for patients with PIK3CA-mutant HR+, HER2–

advanced breast cancer who have progressed on prior endocrine therapy (with/without a CDK 4/6

inhibitor)
