Key clinical point: Neoadjuvant atezolizumab plus docetaxel, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab (PATH) demonstrated an acceptable pathological complete response (pCR) rate and a modest safety profile in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2)-positive early breast cancer (BC).
Major finding: Rate of pCR was 61% in the overall cohort and was higher in patients with hormone receptor-negative vs -positive subtype (77% vs 44%), stages IIA and IIB vs stage III BC (69% and 70% vs 39% respectively), and positive vs negative programmed cell death 1 expression (100% vs 53%). Few patients reported grade ≥3 neutropenia (12%) and febrile neutropenia (8%).
Study details: Findings are from a single-arm phase 2 trial including 67 patients with ERBB2-positive stage II/III BC who initiated 6 cycles of PATH+atezolizumab every 3 weeks.
Disclosures: This study was supported by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, Republic of Korea, and other sources. The authors declared serving on advisory boards or receiving personal fees, grants, honoraria, consulting fees, or nonfinancial support from several sources.
