| الوصف: | Background and Objectives: The presence of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), particularly CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells, has been associated with improved prognosis in patients with HER2+ breast cancer. Increasing levels of TILs also appear to predict response to adjuvant trastuzumab in early breast cancer, although they did not predict benefit of combined trastuzumab-lapatinib neoadjuvant dual therapy over monotherapy in NeoALLTO. CCTG MA.31 randomized 652 women with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer to treatment with trastuzumab (T) vs. lapatinib (L), in combination with taxane (Tax) chemotherapy for 24 weeks, followed by the same HER2-targeted monotherapy. Final results from MA.31 found trastuzumab was superior to lapatinib for the primary endpoint of progression free survival (PFS): the hazard ratio (HR) for lapatinib to trastuzumab was 1.37 (95% CI, 1.13-1.65). Although both agents block HER2 signaling, trastuzumab has additional mechanisms of action via the immune system. We hypothesized that TIL levels may predict response to HER2-targeted therapy (trastuzumab vs. lapatinib). Methods: MA.31 included HER2+ metastatic breast cancer patients, median age 55 years, and median follow-up 21.5 months. Overall TILs were counted per published guidelines on the original H&E stained sections used for pathology review at study entry. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed on unstained sections from tissue microarrays or individual formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks to test expression of lymphocyte biomarkers CD8, FOXP3, CD56 and PD-1 on stromal and intra-tumoral TILs (sTILs, iTILs). Statistical analysis was conducted by CCTG for a total of 9 prespecified biomarker tests. Associations of TILs with PFS were evaluated by univariate stratified log-rank test with graphical Kaplan-Meier curves, and by stratified multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. Predictive effect was examined with a test of interaction between treatment allocation and biomarker classification (high vs. low, using pre-established cutpoints). Results: Of the 652 cases, 614 had slides for overall TIL assessment and 427 for IHC biomarker assessments. In this correlative study set, superiority of trastuzumab over lapatinib for PFS was confirmed in multivariate analysis (LTax/T vs. TTax/L: HR = 2.55, 95% CI = 1.43-4.55, p = 0.001). TIL counts by H&E were neither prognostic nor predictive in this set of metastatic HER2+ breast cancers. Lymphocyte IHC markers were not prognostic. However, prespecified stratified univariate analysis detected a significantly higher risk for lapatinib over trastuzumab (HR = 2.94, 95% CI = 1.40-6.17, p = 0.003) in patients with low CD8+ sTIL (< 3) than was observed among those with high CD8+ sTIL (HR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.05-1.75, p = 0.019). This differential effect was confirmed in multivariate analysis (interaction test p = 0.042). The other tested biomarkers did not demonstrate significant predictive effects. Conclusions: In this correlative study of metastatic HER2+ breast cancer, a low level of pre-existing stromal cytotoxic T cell infiltration predicts women who benefit most from trastuzumab over lapatinib. Overall TIL counts were neither prognostic nor predictive. Citation Format: Liu S, Chen B, Burugu S, Leung S, Gao D, Virk S, Kos Z, Parulekar WR, Shepherd L, Gelmon K, Nielsen TO.
