Locally Advanced & Inflammatory Breast Cancer Suparna Bonthala Wedam, M.D. National Cancer Institute Cancer Therapeutics Branch November 17, 2003
LABC • 10%-20% of newly diagnosed breast cancer • Heterogeneous group of tumors • Definitions vary • Stage IIB, IIIA, IIIB, and IIIC per AJCC 2002 staging guidelines (TNM staging classification) • No standard treatment regimen
LABC • Large tumors (>5cm) • Extensive regional lymph node involvement • Direct involvement of the skin or underlying chest wall • No distant metastases • Inflammatory breast cancer
Clinical Staging • Complete physical exam • Bilateral mammography • Blood tests • Complete blood count • Liver function tests • Radionuclide bone scan • Chest radiograph • CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis
LABC Treatment • Historically considered inoperable • Distant metastases most frequent site of therapy failure with local therapy alone • 5 yr OS<20% • Adjuvant therapy-modest effect on survival • Primary chemotherapy has high response rates and increases rate of BCT • Multimodality treatment • Subsequent sequence of treatment unclear
Primary ChemotherapyAdvantages • Early systemic treatment • Intact tumor vasculature • In vivo assessment of response • Decrease radical local therapy • Downstaging • Increase breast conservation • Improve resectability
Primary ChemotherapyDisadvantages • Delayed local treatment • May induce drug resistance • Large tumor burden • Only have clinical staging • May increase risk of surgical/XRT complications
Serial biopsies to examine Tissue architecture and histology Tumor markers/oncogenes or growth factors Matrix/stromal environment Functional studies: Dynamic imaging Metabolic testing Comparing primary to metastasis response to therapy Primary ChemotherapyResearch Rationale

B-18 Summary • Largest published trial comparing primary vs adjuvant chemo • Establishes primary and adjuvant chemo as EQUIVALENT for survival • No increased risk of local recurrence • Increased lumpectomy rate for primary chemo, esp for large tumors • Pathologic CR = better survival

B-27 Eligibility and Patient Characteristics • Palpable, operable breast cancer: • T1,2,3 N0,1 M0 • 2411 patients accrued • 56 % under age 49 • 70 % clinically node negative • Tumor size: • 15% <= 2 cm (T1) • 41% 2.1-4 cm • 45% >4 cm
B-27Treatment Regimen AC: Doxorubicin: 60 mg/m2 Cyclophosphamide: 600 mg/m2 Taxotere: 100 mg/m2 Tamoxifen: In all patients, 20 mg PO daily X 5 years starting on day 1 of chemotherapy Breast XRT: In lumpectomy patients after surgery (Groups I and II) and after Taxotere (Group III)
B-27Clinical Response*P<0.001 90.7%* 85.7% 85.4%

B-27 Conclusions The addition of preoperative Taxotere to preoperative AC resulted in a significant increase in the rates of: • Clinical Complete Response:40% vs 64%(p<.001) • Pathologic Complete Response:13.7% vs 26.1% (p<.001) • Negative Axillary Nodes:50.8% vs 58.2% (p<.001) Bear et al, JCO, Nov 15th 2003
B-27 Conclusions (cont.) • There was an increase in grade 4 toxicity with the addition of Taxotere to the AC regimen • (10.3% vs 23.4%) • No significant increase in lumpectomy rates Bear et al, JCO, Nov 15th 2003
Chemotherapy Regimens • AC • CAF • FEC, EC-mostly in Europe • CAF • CMF • CAVP • Combination or sequential regimens with taxanes (docetaxel, paclitaxel) • Clinical trials using trastuzumab (Herceptin)
LABC Conclusions • Multimodality treatment • Prognosis based on certain factors • Age • Menopausal status • Tumor stage • Histologic grade • Clinical response • LN stats following tx • HR status • Approx 50% now attain long-term survival
Inflammatory Breast Cancer • Rare, 1-5% in U.S. • Most aggressive form of breast cancer • Clinical diagnosis • diffuse erythema involving majority breast • peau d’ orange • erisypeloid edge • often no palpable mass • Significantly lower overall survival than non-IBC
Inflammatory Breast Cancer • Dermal lymphatic invasion • Stage IIIB (T4d) if not metastatic • Compared to non-IBC, more frequently ER/PR negative Her2/neu positive

Primary Chemotherapy Surgery RT Chemotherapy + Hormonal Therapy Inflammatory Breast CancerStandard Treatment
Rationale for Primary Chemotherapy • Consideredinoperable • Tumor extension beyond visible erythema • Micrometastatic at diagnosis • Response used to guide therapy
Local Therapy Issues • Surgery: Mastectomy or BCT? • Reconstruction: Immediate or delayed? • Radiation therapy
Immediate vs Delayed Reconstruction Issues • Postoperative radiation interferes with cosmetic result • Probability of local recurrence • Wound closure of large mastectomy site • TRAM vs skin graft? • Psychological benefit worth risk? • Recommend: Delayed Reconstruction
Radiotherapy • Post-mastectomy radiation to a dose of at least 5000 cGy • Supraclavicular nodal radiation and bolus • Bifractionated radiotherapy (MDACC, McNeese)
IBC Summary • Aggressive, poor prognosis disease • Primary chemotherapy to best response • Mastectomy, chest wall radiation • Delayed reconstruction • Enrollment onto clinical trials should be encouraged, especially for: • Herceptin • High dose chemotherapy • Experimental agents
Case Presentation • 43 y.o. premenopausal female presented with lump on inner quadrant of right breast • Right core biopsy-grade III infiltrating ductal carcinoma, ER-, PR-, Her-2 3+ • No other symptoms • No significant medical history • No medications
Physical Examination • Right breast • Enlarged, erythematous, tender • Diffuse mass-difficult to measure • Palpable right axillary lymph node • No other abnormalities
Staging Work-Up • Labs-normal except for elevation of ALT • Bone Scan-? Met focus in sternum, bilateral SI joint uptake • CT Scan-4x3.6 cm right breast mass, 1.3x0.9 supraclavicular LN, 2.7 x 1.6 cm right axillary LN; liver okay • MRI of breast-abnormalities in right breast; no sternal involvement • STAGE IIC
Treatment • Primary chemotherapy with paclitaxel, carboplatin and Herceptin (TCH) for 5 cycles • Right MRM/ALND • 2 cm poorly diff IDC, negative margins, 5/28LN+ • ER-, PR-, Her-2 3+ • Adjuvant therapy with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (AC) for 4 cycles • XRT
