Atezolizumab plus paclitaxel and bevacizumab as first-line treatment of advanced triple-negative breast cancer: the ATRACTIB phase 2 trial
Mené sur 100 patientes atteintes d'un cancer du sein triple négatif de stade avancé (âge médian : 55 ans), cet essai de phase II évalue l'efficacité, du point de vue de la survie sans progression, et la toxicité d'un traitement de première ligne combinant atézolizumab, paclitaxel et bévacizumab
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer with poor prognosis. The current first-line treatment for advanced TNBC (aTNBC) is determined by the expression of programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). In the ATRACTIB trial—a multicenter, single-arm, phase 2 study—we evaluated the combination of atezolizumab, paclitaxel and bevacizumab as first-line treatment for patients with aTNBC, independently of PD-L1 status. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival. One hundred female patients were enrolled, with most evaluable tumors being PD-L1-negative (97.6%). The primary endpoint was met, with a median progression-free survival of 11.0 months (95% confidence interval (CI): 9.0–13.4; P < 0.001). The objective response rate was 63.0% (95% CI: 52.8–72.4) and median overall survival was 27.4 months (95% CI: 23.4–37.4). No treatment-related deaths or new safety signals were observed. This combination demonstrated significant antitumor activity as first-line therapy for aTNBC patients and merits further investigation. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04408118.
