Summary • Suppressing HER2 upon progression appears to continue to benefit • Either continue trastuzumab with a change in chemotherapy or switch to lapatinib
Case: Progress • Continued trastuzumab • 4 mg/kg loading dose over 90 min; 2 mg/kg weekly maintenance dose over 30 min • Started capecitabine 2000 mg/m2 bid • Tolerated therapy well • PR after 2 cycles PR = partial response
Challenges for Physicians in Canada • Treatment with trastuzumab beyond progression is not funded in many provinces • Lapatinib is an oral drug; coverage is not yet certain* • Capecitabine is an oral drug and is not covered in some provinces for patients <65 years without a drug plan * As of June 2009
HER2-Positive MBC Treatment Summary • For women with HER2-positive MBC, trastuzumab + chemotherapy should be the treatment of choice • Choice of chemotherapy should be individualized based on clinical presentation • Treatment options for patients who progress on trastuzumab: • Continuation of trastuzumab + other chemotherapeutic agents (phase II data) • Continuation of trastuzumab + capecitabine (phase III data) • Lapatinib + capecitabine (phase III data) • Chemotherapy alone
Treatment Summary • No gold-standard treatment for MBC • Individualize treatment based on tumour burden and patient characteristics • Goals of treatment: • Prolong survival • Relieve symptoms with minimal treatment-related toxicities (integral part of overall care) • Discuss clinical trials when appropriate
