RESUMO
BACKGROUND: As an oncologic emergency related to abnormalities in calcium metabolism, hypercalcemia associated with paraneoplastic syndrome and bone metastases is well known. Meanwhile, the incidence of hypocalcemia is low, except in cases associated with bone-modifying agents used for bone metastases. Hypocalcemia induced by bone-modifying agents typically occurs early after the initial administration, and its incidence can be significantly reduced by preventive administration of calcium and vitamin D3 supplements. CASE REPORT: We report two cases of recurrent severe hypocalcemia occurring during chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer with multiple bone metastases. Case 1: A 35-year-old Japanese woman developed metastases in the bone, liver, and ovaries during postoperative endocrine therapy for invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast. She underwent chemotherapy and treatment with denosumab. She experienced recurrent episodes of severe hypocalcemia subsequent to a change in the chemotherapy regimen. Case 2: A 65-year-old Japanese woman encountered multiple bone metastases after postoperative anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 therapy and during endocrine therapy for invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast. She underwent anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 therapy and treatment with denosumab. She experienced recurrent severe hypocalcemia subsequent to a change in the chemotherapy regimen to letrozole + lapatinib, trastuzumab emtansine, and lapatinib + capecitabine. CONCLUSIONS: We observed two cases of recurrent severe hypocalcemia in patients with advanced breast cancer and bone metastases after modifications to their therapy regimens. These cases differed from the typical hypocalcemia induced by bone-modifying agents. It is possible that antitumor drugs affect calcium and bone metabolism associated with bone metastases. While these cases are rare, it is crucial for oncologists to be aware of hypocalcemia not only at the initiation of bone-modifying agents but also throughout the entire antitumor therapy, as hypocalcemia can lead to fatal outcomes.

AIMS: Trastuzumab, the first humanized monoclonal antibody that targets human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2/HER2), is currently used as a first-line treatment for HER2 (+) tumours. However, trastuzumab increases the risk of cardiac complications without affecting myocardial structure, suggesting a distinct mechanism of cardiotoxicity. METHODS AND RESULTS: We used medium from trastuzumab-treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to treat CCC-HEH-2 cells, the human embryonic cardiac tissue-derived cell lines, and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) to assess the crosstalk between vascular endothelial cells (VECs) and cardiomyocytes. Protein mass spectrometry analysis was used to identify the key factors from VECs that regulate the function of cardiomyocytes. We applied RNA-sequencing to clarify the mechanism, by which PTX3 causes cardiac dysfunction. We used an anti-human/rat HER2 (neu) monoclonal antibody to generate a rat model that was used to evaluate the effects of trastuzumab on cardiac structure and function and the rescue effects of lapatinib on trastuzumab-induced cardiac side effects. Medium from trastuzumab-treated HUVECs apparently impaired the contractility of CCC-HEH-2 cells and iPSC-CMs. PTX3 from VECs caused defective cardiomyocyte contractility and cardiac dysfunction in mice, phenocopying trastuzumab treatment. PTX3 affected calcium homoeostasis in cardiomyocytes, which led to defective contractile properties. EGFR/STAT3 signalling in VECs contributed to the increased expression and release of PTX3. Notably, lapatinib, a dual inhibitor of EGFR/HER2, could rescue the cardiac complications caused by trastuzumab by blocking the release of PTX3. CONCLUSION: We identified a distinct mode of cardiotoxicity, wherein the activation of EGFR/STAT3 signalling by trastuzumab in VECs promotes PTX3 excretion, which contributes to the impaired contractility of cardiomyocytes by inhibiting cellular calcium signalling. We confirmed that lapatinib could be a feasible preventive agent against trastuzumab-induced cardiac complications and provided the rationale for the combined application of lapatinib and trastuzumab in cancer therapy.

Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody-drug conjugate approved for use in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. Case reports have suggested an association between T-DM1 and portal hypertension. Purpose To evaluate the association of T-DM1 therapy with spleen volume changes and portal hypertension on CT scans and clinical findings compared with lapatinib and capecitabine therapy. Materials and Methods Patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who were administered at least two cycles of T-DM1 or lapatinib and capecitabine (controls) in a tertiary institution from 2001 to 2020 and who underwent CT before initial treatment and at least once during treatment were retrospectively enrolled. Spleen volume changes and the signs of portal hypertension (gastroesophageal varix [GEV], spontaneous portosystemic shunt [SPSS], and ascites) were evaluated at contrast-enhanced CT. Patients were followed until treatment ended or for 2 years after the start of treatment. Spleen volume changes were measured with a deep learning algorithm and evaluated by using a linear mixed model. The incidences of splenomegaly and portal hypertension were compared between the T-DM1 and control groups by using a χ2 test or Fisher exact test. Results The T-DM1 group included 111 patients (mean age, 54 years ± 11 [SD]; 111 women) and the control group included 122 patients (mean age, 50 years ± 9; 121 women). Spleen volume progressively increased with T-DM1 therapy but was constant in the control group (104% ± 5 vs -1% ± 6 at the 33rd treatment cycle, respectively; P < .001). Incidences of splenomegaly (46% [51 of 111] vs 3% [four of 122] of patients; P < .001), GEV (11% [12 of 111] vs 1% [one of 122] of patients; P < .001), and SPSS (27% [30 of 111] vs 1% [one of 122] of patients; P < .001) were higher in the T-DM1 group than in the control group. Conclusion Trastuzumab emtansine therapy was associated with noncirrhotic portal hypertension at CT, with higher incidences of splenomegaly, gastroesophageal varix, and spontaneous portosystemic shunt than those with lapatinib and capecitabine therapy. © RSNA, 2022 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Lapatinib, an orally administered small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (SM-TKI), is an effective treatment for ErbB2-positive breast cancer. However, its efficacy as one of the targeted cancer therapies has been hampered by several adverse effects, especially gastrointestinal toxicity, commonly manifested as diarrhoea. Although it can be generally tolerated, diarrhoea is reported as the most common and most impactful on a patient's quality of life and associated with treatment interruption. Severe diarrhoea can result in malabsorption, leading to dehydration, fatigue, and even death. ErbB1 is an epidermal growth factor profoundly expressed in normal gut epithelium while lapatinib is a dual ErbB1/ErbB2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Thus, ErbB1 inhibition by lapatinib may affect gut homeostasis leading to diarrhoea. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This review article provides evidence of the possible mechanisms of lapatinib-induced diarrhoea that may be related to/or modulated by ErbB1. Insight regarding the involvement of ErbB1 in the pathophysiological changes such as inflammation and intestinal permeability as the underlying cause of diarrhoea is covered in this article.

PURPOSE: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted therapies improve survival for patients with HER2-positive breast cancer but carry risks of hematologic, cardiopulmonary, gastro-hepatobiliary, and other adverse events (AEs). In this review, we describe published AE incidences for HER2-targeted therapies for metastatic breast cancer (mBC). METHODS: We searched PubMed and Embase to identify studies on HER2-targeted therapies in HER2-positive mBC, reporting on AEs of special interest, and published between January 1, 2009, and February 6, 2020. Treatment regimens were categorized into mutually exclusive therapy-based categories, with primary therapy determined by worldwide approval date. RESULTS: One hundred and fifty-three included articles assessed a combined 29,238 patients treated with the following therapy-based regimens: trastuzumab or biosimilars (78 studies), lapatinib (40), T-DM1 (ado-trastuzumab emtansine) (20), pertuzumab (14), neratinib (8), MM-302 (1), T-DXd (2), tucatinib (3), and pyrotinib (3). While direct comparisons of AE incidence are not warranted owing to study heterogeneity, proportions of patients experiencing any Grade 3 + AE ranged across therapy-based regimens from 39.4% (lapatinib) to 66.3% (neratinib). The most common hematologic AE of special interest, of any grade and regardless of causality, was leukopenia/white blood cells decreased [21.4% (T-DXd)-46.2% (pyrotinib)]. Cardiopulmonary AEs of special interest included interstitial lung disease [2.7% (trastuzumab)-5.2% (T-DXd)], pneumonitis [0.2% (lapatinib)-7.4% (trastuzumab)], and decreased ejection fraction [1% (T-DXd)-13.6% (trastuzumab)]. Gastro-hepatobiliary AEs of special interest included nausea [33.9% (trastuzumab)-78.3% (T-DXd)], vomiting [19.2% (T-DM1)-48.2% (T-DXd)], diarrhea [19.6% (T-DM1)-96.9% (pyrotinib)], and hepatotoxicity [5.9% (lapatinib)-53.6% (T-DM1)]. CONCLUSION: Differing AE profiles for anti-HER2 therapies should be considered when assessing benefit-risk profile for treatment options.

Epidermal growth factor receptors 1 and 2 (EGFR and HER2) are frequently overexpressed in various malignancies. Lapatinib is a dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits both EGFR and HER2. Although a phase III trial failed to show the survival benefits of lapatinib treatment after first-line chemotherapy in patients with EGFR/HER2-positive metastatic urothelial carcinoma, the efficacy of lapatinib for untreated urothelial carcinoma is not well defined. Here, we describe the therapeutic efficacy of lapatinib as a first-line treatment in a canine model of muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma. In this non-randomized clinical trial, we compared 44 dogs with naturally occurring urothelial carcinoma who received lapatinib and piroxicam, with 42 age-, sex-, and tumor stage-matched dogs that received piroxicam alone. Compared to the dogs treated with piroxicam alone, those administered the lapatinib/piroxicam treatment had a greater reduction in the size of the primary tumor and improved survival. Exploratory analyses showed that HER2 overexpression was associated with response and survival in dogs treated with lapatinib. Our study suggests that lapatinib showed encouraging durable response rates, survival, and tolerability, supporting its therapeutic use for untreated advanced urothelial carcinoma in dogs. The use of lapatinib as a first-line treatment may be investigated further in human patients with urothelial carcinoma.

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) of targeted therapy drugs (TTDs) are frequently unexpected and long-term toxicities detract from exceptional efficacy of new TTDs. In this proof-of-concept study, we explored how molecular causation involved in trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity changes when trastuzumab was given in combination with doxorubicin, tamoxifen, paroxetine, or lapatinib. The data analytical platform Molecular Health Effect was utilized to map population ADR data from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System to chemical and biological databases (such as UniProt and Reactome), for hypothesis generation regarding the underlying molecular mechanisms causing cardiotoxicity. Disproportionality analysis was used to assess the statistical relevance between adverse events of interest and molecular causation. Literature search was performed to compare the established hypotheses to published experimental findings. We found that the combination therapy of trastuzumab and doxorubicin may affect mitochondrial dysfunction in cardiomyocytes through different molecular pathways such as BCL-X and PGC-1α proteins, leading to a synergistic effect of cardiotoxicity. We found, on the other hand, that trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity would be diminished by concomitant use of tamoxifen, paroxetine, and/or lapatinib. Tamoxifen and paroxetine may cause less cardiotoxicity through an increase in antioxidant activities, such as glutathione conjugation. Lapatinib may decrease the apoptotic effects in cardiomyocytes by altering the effects of trastuzumab on BCL-X proteins. This patient-centered systems-based approach provides, based on the trastuzumab-induced ADR cardiotoxicity, an example of how to apply reverse translation to investigate ADRs at the molecular pathway and target level to understand the causality and prevalence during drug development of novel therapeutics.

Lapatinib (LAP) is an important anti-cancer drug and is frequently alongside doxorubicin (DOX) as a combination therapy for better anti-cancer efficacy. However, many studies have reported that LAP in combination with DOX may induce highly cardiotoxicity. Accordingly, we aimed to explore the potential mechanism involved in the synergistic effect of LAP in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Here, cell counting kit-8 was used to detect cell viability and lactate dehydrogenase measurement was performed to assess cell injury. Cell apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL assay and western blot assay. Mitochondrial dysfunction was identified by JC-1 assay, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and Cytochrome C. Moreover, the activity of ROS, SOD, CAT and GSH were measured to elucidate oxidative stress level. Ferroptosis was examined by levels of Fe2+, GPX4 and ASCL4. Expressions of PI3K/AKT signaling were identified by western blot assay. The results revealed that LAP inhibited the cell viability and exacerbated cell injury induced by Dox, as well as increased cell apoptosis. LAP aggravated DOX-induced mitochondria damage by changed mitochondrial membrane potential, decreased ATP and increased level of Cytochrome C. In addition, the combination of LAP and DOX induced oxidative stress and ferroptosis in H9c2 cells. The activation of PI3K/AKT signaling reversed the detrimental effects of LAP on DOX-induced H9c2 cells. The data in this study showed for the first time that LAP aggravated Dox-induced cardiotoxicity by promoting oxidative stress and ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes via PI3K/AKT-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction, suggesting that PI3K/AKT activation is a promising cardioprotective strategy for DOX /LAX combination therapies.

The choice of the anti-HER2 agent depends on country-specific availability, the specific, previously administered anti-HER2 therapy and the relapse-free interval, although there is not much published data on the use of lapatinib after progression on pertuzumab and/or T-DM1. The aim of this research is to determine efficacy of lapatinib in this setting. This research included 111 patients with metastatic HER2 positive breast cancer who received lapatinib with capecitabine at The Oncology Institute of Vojvodina. Lapatinib was given to 83 patients after trastuzumab without prior exposure to pertuzumab or T-DM1 while 28 patients received lapatinib after prior exposure to trastuzumab, pertuzumab and/or T-DM1. In order to determine efficacy of lapatinib in both groups, we measured progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), as well as by subsets: hormonal status (ER-positive and/or PR-positive tumours versus ER-negative and PR-negative tumours), the number of positive axillary lymph nodes (four or more positive axillary lymph nodes versus less than four positive axillary lymph nodes), marker of proliferation (Ki-67 ≥ 30 versus Ki-67 < 30), disease free interval (metastatic recurrence ≤ 1 year after initial diagnosis versus metastatic recurrence > 1 year after initial diagnosis or de novo metastatic disease. Median PFS was 5.6 months (95% CI 4.6-6.6) in the group of patients who received lapatinib after prior exposure to trastuzumab, pertuzumab and/or T-DM 1 and 7.4 months (95% CI 6.1-10.2) in the group of patients who received lapatinib after trastuzumab (HR, 0.79; 95% CI 0.61-0.98; P = 0.09). The patients with negative prognostic factors such as hormone receptor negativity, more than four positive axillary lymph nodes, marker of proliferation Ki 67 ≥ 30 and metastatic recurrence ≤ 1 year after initial diagnosis, had a similar PFS, regardless of receiving lapatinib after prior exposure to trastuzumab, pertuzumab and/or T-DM1 or without prior exposure. Median OS was 10.1 months (95% CI 8.6-NR) in the group that received lapatinib after exposure to trastuzumab, pertuzumab and/or T-DM1 and 16.3 months (95% CI 14.4-20.2) in the group of patients who received lapatinib after trastuzumab (HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.59-0.94; P = 0.04). Patients with negative prognostic factors such as hormone receptor negativity, more than four positive axillary lymph nodes and marker of proliferation Ki 67 ≥ 30, had no distinctly worse OS, regardless of receiving lapatinib after prior exposure to trastuzumab, pertuzumab and/or T-DM1 or without prior exposure. Lapatinib with capecitabine is an effective therapeutic option, especially in patients with negative prognostic factors, who have received prior chemotherapy, trastuzumab, pertuzumab, T-DM1 and remains an acceptable option for HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer until the novel drugs are approved in developing countries.

Background: We hypothesized that the addition of receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (RTKis, e.g., lapatinib, erlotinib, cetuximab, bevacizumab, panitumumab) to radiotherapy-based treatment for solid tumors does not increase overall survival but may increase toxicity. Methods: Population, Intervention, Control, Outcome, Study Design; Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses; and Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology methods were used to identify prospective randomized studies including patients with solid tumor cancers treated with radiotherapy with or without RTKis. Extracted variables included use of radiotherapy vs chemoradiotherapy, RTKi type (antibody vs small molecule), outcomes, and toxicities. The primary endpoint was overall survival; the secondary endpoint was grade 3+ toxicity. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed for each outcome measure. All statistical tests were 2-sided. Results: A total of 405 studies met the initial search criteria, of which 13 prospective randomized trials of radiotherapy with or without RTKi met the inclusion criteria, encompassing 5678 patients. The trials included cancers of the head and neck (6 trials, 3295 patients), esophagus (3 trials, 762 patients), lung (2 trials, 550 patients), and brain (2 trials, 1542 patients). Three studies evaluated a small molecule and radiotherapy in 949 patients, and 10 studies evaluated antibodies and radiotherapy in 4729 patients. The addition of RTKis to radiotherapy-based treatment did not improve overall survival (hazard ratio = 1.02, 95% confidence interval = 0.90 to 1.15, P = .76) but increased grade 3+ toxicity (relative risk = 1.18, 95% confidence interval = 1.06 to 1.33, P = .009). Conclusions: The addition of RTKis to radiotherapy does not improve survival and worsens toxicity.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of lapatinib in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who received lapatinib for salvage treatment at any line setting from January 1, 2007 to August 31, 2019 at Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute. RESULTS: A total of 115 (89.1%) patients were included in the study. In the overall cohort, the median disease-free survival (DFS) was 19.0 months; the median progression-free survival (PFS), 6.3 months; and median overall survival (OS), 88.0 months, with 32.2% of patients alive at 5 years. In the second line setting, the median PFS among trastuzumab, lapatinib, and trastuzumab plus lapatinib were 4.2 months, 5.2 months, and 7.3 months, respectively (P = 0.004). No significant differences between the median PFSs and OSs of the different line salvage treatments with lapatinib was observed (all P > 0.05). For brain metastasis patients, the median PFSs in first line, second line, and more than 3 lines were 7.2 months, 4.5 months, and 6.3 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that patients would benefit more from trastuzumab plus lapatinib than from lapatinib or trastuzumab alone for second line treatment in the advanced stages of the disease. Lapatinib could be used as an alternative selection for HER2-positive metastasic breast cancer patients when there is disease progression after trastuzumab or pyrotinib treatment, which is used as part of China's national health insurance.

Secondary sclerosing cholangitis (SSC) is a rare cholestatic liver disease that may have a severe clinical course. A 61-year-old woman with a history of metastasis breast cancer was admitted to our hospital for the second cycle of chemotherapy with lapatinib and vinorelbine. The patient had no reports of elevated liver function tests (LFTs) in the previous multiple chemotherapies or history of liver disease. However, the admission laboratory results showed severe cholestatic liver injury with the possibility of SSC by magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography. Although chemotherapy was discontinued and patient was treated with hepatoprotective drugs, the LFTs did not improve and liver biopsy indicated mild injury of intrahepatic bile duct epithelium and hepatocyte. We added ursodeoxycholic acid and prednisolone to protect the liver, and laboratory data showed a response. To prevent the progression, lapatinib and vinorelbine were reintroduced and transient increases in alanine aminotransferase and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase were observed. With no evidence of viral or autoimmune liver disease, SSC induced by lapatinib and vinorelbine was diagnosed. This is the first case report of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and vinorelbine induced SSC and clinicians should be aware of the possibility of it. More case reports about this adverse drug reaction are needed to delineate optimal management.

BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer ranks as the fourth leading cause of death from cancer in women. Historically, women with metastatic or recurrent cervical cancer have had limited treatment options. New anti-angiogenesis therapies, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) targeting agents, offer an alternative strategy to conventional chemotherapy; they act by inhibiting the growth of new blood vessels, thereby restricting tumour growth by blocking the blood supply. OBJECTIVES: To assess the benefits and harms of VEGF targeting agents in the management of persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer. SEARCH METHODS: We performed searches of the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, Embase, online registers of clinical trials, and abstracts of scientific meetings up until 27 May 2020. SELECTION CRITERIA: We examined randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated the use of VEGF targeting agents alone or in combination with conventional chemotherapy or other VEGF targeting agents. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Three review authors independently screened the results of search strategies, extracted data, assessed risk of bias, and analysed data according to the standard methods expected by Cochrane. The certainty of evidence was assessed via the GRADE approach. MAIN RESULTS: A total of 1634 records were identified. From these, we identified four studies with a total of 808 participants for inclusion. We also identified two studies that were awaiting classification and nine ongoing studies. Bevacizumab plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy Treatment with bevacizumab plus chemotherapy may result in lower risk of death compared to chemotherapy alone (hazard ratio (HR) 0.77, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.62 to 0.95; 1 study, 452 participants; low-certainty evidence). However, there are probably more specific adverse events when compared to chemotherapy alone, including gastrointestinal perforations or fistulae (risk ratio (RR) 18.00, 95% CI 2.42 to 133.67; 1 study, 440 participants; moderate-certainty evidence); serious thromboembolic events (RR 4.5, 95% CI 1.55 to 13.08; 1 study, 440 participants; moderate-certainty evidence); and hypertension (RR 13.75, 95% CI 5.07 to 37.29; 1 study, 440 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). There may also be a higher incidence of serious haemorrhage (RR 5.00, 95% CI 1.11 to 22.56; 1 study, 440 participants; low-certainty evidence). In addition, the incidence of serious adverse events is probably higher (RR 1.44, 95% CI 1.16 to 1.79; 1 study, 439 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was USD 295,164 per quality-adjusted life-year (1 study, 452 participants; low-certainty evidence). Cediranib plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy Treatment with cediranib plus chemotherapy may or may not result in similar risk of death when compared to chemotherapy alone (HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.53 to 1.65; 1 study, 69 participants; low-certainty evidence). We found very uncertain results for the incidences of specific adverse events, including gastrointestinal perforations or fistulae (RR 3.27, 95% CI 0.14 to 77.57; 1 study, 67 participants; very low-certainty evidence); serious haemorrhage (RR 5.45, 95% CI 0.27 to 109.49; 1 study, 67 participants; very low-certainty evidence); serious thromboembolic events (RR 3.41, 95% CI 0.14 to 80.59; 1 study, 60 participants; very low-certainty evidence); and serious hypertension (RR 0.36, 95% CI 0.02 to 8.62; 1 study, 67 participants; very low-certainty evidence). In addition, there may or may not be a similar incidence of serious adverse events compared to chemotherapy alone (RR 1.15, 95% CI 0.75 to 1.78; 1 study, 67 participants; low-certainty evidence). Apatinib plus chemotherapy or chemotherapy/brachytherapy versus chemotherapy or chemotherapy/brachytherapy Treatment with apatinib plus chemotherapy or chemotherapy/brachytherapy may or may not result in similar risk of death compared to chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy/brachytherapy alone (HR 0.90, 95% CI 0.51 to 1.60; 1 study, 52 participants; low-certainty evidence). However, hypertension events may occur at a higher incidence as compared to chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy/brachytherapy alone (RR 5.14, 95% CI 1.28 to 20.73; 1 study, 52 participants; low-certainty evidence). Pazopanib plus lapatinib versus lapatinib Treatment with pazopanib plus lapatinib may result in higher risk of death compared to lapatinib alone (HR 2.71, 95% CI 1.16 to 6.31; 1 study, 117 participants; low-certainty evidence). We found very uncertain results for the incidences of specific adverse events, including gastrointestinal perforations or fistulae (RR 2.00, 95% CI 0.19 to 21.59; 1 study, 152 participants; very low-certainty evidence); haemorrhage (RR 2.00, 95% CI 0.72 to 5.58; 1 study, 152 participants; very low-certainty evidence); and thromboembolic events (RR 3.00, 95% CI 0.12 to 72.50; 1 study, 152 participants; very low-certainty evidence). In addition, the incidence of hypertension events is probably higher (RR 12.00, 95% CI 2.94 to 49.01; 1 study, 152 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). There may or may not be a similar incidence of serious adverse events as compared to lapatinib alone (RR 1.45, 95% CI 0.94 to 2.26; 1 study, 152 participants; low-certainty evidence). Pazopanib versus lapatinib Treatment with pazopanib may or may not result in similar risk of death as compared to lapatinib (HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.67 to 1.38; 1 study, 152 participants; low-certainty evidence). We found very uncertain results for the incidences of specific adverse events, including gastrointestinal perforations or fistulae (RR 1.03, 95% CI 0.07 to 16.12; 1 study, 150 participants; very low-certainty evidence); haemorrhage (RR 1.03, 95% CI 0.31 to 3.40; 1 study, 150 participants; very low-certainty evidence); and thromboembolic events (RR 3.08, 95% CI 0.13 to 74.42; 1 study, 150 participants; very low-certainty evidence). In addition, the incidence of hypertension events is probably higher (RR 11.81, 95% CI 2.89 to 48.33; 1 study, 150 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). The risk of serious adverse events may or may not be similar as compared to lapatinib (RR 1.31, 95% CI 0.83 to 2.07; 1 study, 150 participants; low-certainty evidence). AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: We found low-certainty evidence in favour of the use of bevacizumab plus chemotherapy. However, bevacizumab probably increases specific adverse events (gastrointestinal perforations or fistulae, thromboembolic events, hypertension) and serious adverse events. We found low-certainty evidence that does not support the use of cediranib plus chemotherapy, apatinib plus chemotherapy, apatinib plus chemotherapy/brachytherapy, or pazopanib monotherapy. We found low-certainty evidence suggesting that pazopanib plus lapatinib worsens outcomes. The VEGF inhibitors apatinib and pazopanib may increase the probability of hypertension events.

BACKGROUND: The bioavailability of lapatinib is affected by food, even following the 1 hour fast recommended by the package insert. We hypothesized that overnight fasting would minimize food-drug interactions. Here, we investigated if lapatinib administration timing is associated with its tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study utilizing the medical records of patients enrolled in the JBCRG-16/Neo-LaTH randomized phase 2 trial for breast cancer patients treated with lapatinib. Lapatinib administration timing was divided into three groups: before breakfast (BB), between meals (BM), and at bedtime (AB). Side effects (SE), treatment discontinuation rate (TDR), relative dose intensity (RDI), pathological complete response (pCR) rate, and lapatinib serum trough concentration were compared between groups. RESULTS: About 140 patients were included in this study: BB 15, BM 51, and AB 74. A reduced risk of diarrhea {adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 0.51, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.27-0.89, p = 0.018}, and rash {adjusted HR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.17-0.70, p = 0.002} was seen in BB versus AB. Fewer patients with low RDI (< 0.85/<0.6) were in the BB group (BB 13% / 0%, BM 22% / 3.9%, AB 24% / 14%, p = 0.70 / 0.11). pCR was not diminished (p = 0.75). BB group had the lowest serum lapatinib concentration and variability (mean ±SD were 0.35 ± 0.15, 0.65 ± 0.32, 0.96 ± 0.43 µg/ml). CONCLUSIONS: Compared to bedtime administration, lapatinib administration after overnight fasting reduces its toxicity without diminishing its therapeutic efficacy.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer (BC) accounts for about 20% to 30% of all BC subtypes and is characterized by invasive disease and poor prognosis. With the emergence of anti-HER2 target drugs, HER2-positive BC patient outcomes have changed dramatically. However, treatment failure is mostly due to drug resistance and the special treatment needs of different subgroups. Small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors can inhibit multiple targets of the human epidermal growth factor receptor family and activate PI3K/AKT, MAPK, PLC γ, ERK1/2, JAK/STAT, and other pathways affecting the expression of MDM2, mTOR, p27, and other transcription factors. This can help regulate the differentiation, apoptosis, migration, growth, and adhesion of normal cells and reverse drug resistance to a certain extent. These inhibitors can cross the blood-brain barrier and be administered orally. They have a good synergistic effect with effective drugs such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, t-dm1, and cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitors. These advantages have resulted in small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors attracting attention. The new small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor was investigated in multi-target anti-HER2 therapy, showed a good effect in preclinical and clinical trials, and to some extent, improved the prognosis of HER2-positive BC patients. Its use could lead to a de-escalation of treatment in some patients, possibly preventing unnecessary procedures along with the associated side effects and costs.

BACKGROUND: ERBB2 amplification occurs in 5% of RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and it has been shown to be a target for treatment with 2 HER2-directed combinations of trastuzumab and lapatinib or trastuzumab and pertuzumab. We present long-term clinical results of trastuzumab and lapatinib (HERACLES-A trial) at 6.7 years (82 months) follow-up and focus on central nervous system (CNS) recurrences. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients had histologically confirmed KRAS exon 2 (codons 12 and 13) wild-type and HER2-positive mCRC. HER2 positivity was assessed by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization HERACLES diagnostic criteria. Patients were treated with intravenous trastuzumab 4 mg/kg loading dose, then 2 mg/kg once per week, and oral lapatinib 1000 mg per day until disease progression or toxicity. Patients who presented with symptoms or signs of CNS disease received brain computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS: A total of 35 patients received trastuzumab and lapatinib and 32 were evaluable for response. One patient (3%) achieved complete response (CR), 8 (25%) partial response, and 13 (41%) stable disease. Therefore, response rate was 28%. Median progression-free survival was 4.7 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.7-6.1). Median overall survival was 10.0 months (95% CI 7.9-15.8). One patient achieved sustained CR still maintained at 7 years of follow-up. Progression in the central nervous system (CNS) occurred in 6 (19%) of 32 patients. CONCLUSIONS: Long-term (6.7 years) follow-up analysis of HERACLES-A supports using of trastuzumab and lapatinib as treatment reference for KRAS wild-type, chemorefractory HER2-positive mCRC. In this subset of patients, prolongation of survival is accompanied by CNS recurrences that will require diagnostic and therapeutic attention in future studies. Clinicaltrials.

PURPOSE: Anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) therapies are associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD), also referred to as pneumonitis. In this literature review, we describe the incidence of ILD among patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) receiving anti-HER2 therapies, and we describe existing recommendations for monitoring and managing drug-induced ILD among these patients. METHODS: We searched PubMed and Embase to identify clinical trials and postmarket observational studies that investigated anti-HER2 therapies for HER2-positive MBC, reported on ILD, and were published during January 1, 2009 to July 15, 2019. Articles were screened by two researchers; data were extracted from the full-text articles. RESULTS: The 18 articles selected for this review assessed 9,886 patients who received trastuzumab (8 articles), lapatinib (4 articles), trastuzumab emtansine (3 articles), trastuzumab deruxtecan (2 articles), or trastuzumab duocarmazine (1 article). The overall incidence of all-grade ILD was 2.4% (n = 234), with 66.7% (n = 156) occurring as grade 1-2 events, 0.5% grade 3-4 (n = 54; incidence), and 0.2% grade 5 (n = 16; incidence). The highest ILD incidence (21.4%) was among patients receiving trastuzumab combined with everolimus and paclitaxel. Ten studies indicated that ILD events were managed via dose interruption, dose reduction, or treatment discontinuation; two studies included detailed guidelines on managing drug-induced ILD. CONCLUSIONS: ILD is a well-described adverse drug reaction associated with several anti-HER2 drugs. Published ILD management guidelines are available for few anti-HER2 treatment regimens; however, guidance for monitoring for anti-HER2 drug-induced ILD is lacking.

Leptomeningeal Metastases (LM) is a turning point in terms of prognosis and quality of life of patients with breast cancer (BC). Intrathecal therapy is largely used for the treatment of breast cancer LM. In this metanalysis with meta-regression, we gathered data on intrathecal (IT) trastuzumab administration in patients with HER2 positive breast cancer with LM. A total of 24 articles (58 patients) were included in the study and intrathecal trastuzumab was used in all patients. The mean age at IT administration was 50.7 years (SD 11.4, range 24-80) and the mean total dose of IT trastuzumab was 711.9 mg (SD 634.9, median 450). IT trastuzumab was used both alone (n = 20) and in combination with systemic pharmacotherapy (n = 37). No serious adverse events were reported in 87.9% of cases. In this selected population a significant clinical improvement was observed in 55.0% of cases while stabilization was reported in 14% of cases. CSF response was observed in 55.6% of the cases. MRI was improved or stable in 70.8% of the cases. Interestingly, the CNS-PFS was 5.2 months and the median OS was 13.2 months. A clinical improvement (HR 0.13, 95% CI 0.03-0.49) and CSF response (HR 0.13, 95% CI 0.03-0.58) were associated with a longer CNS-PFS. The association of longer CNS-PFS with radio- or neurosurgery prior to the administration of IT trastuzumab did not reach statistical significance. This metanalysis with meta-regression indicates that IT trastuzumab in patients with HER2 positive breast cancer LM might be a safe and effective treatment, but further prospective studies are needed to definitively prove such a point.

PURPOSE: KRAS oncogene mutations cause sustained signaling through the MAPK pathway. Concurrent inhibition of MEK, EGFR, and HER2 resulted in complete inhibition of tumor growth in KRAS-mutant (KRASm) and PIK3CA wild-type tumors, in vitro and in vivo. In this phase I study, patients with advanced KRASm and PIK3CA wild-type colorectal cancer (CRC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and pancreatic cancer, were treated with combined lapatinib and trametinib to assess the recommended phase 2 regimen (RP2R). METHODS: Patients received escalating doses of continuous or intermittent once daily (QD) orally administered lapatinib and trametinib, starting at 750 mg and 1 mg continuously, respectively. RESULTS: Thirty-four patients (16 CRC, 15 NSCLC, three pancreatic cancers) were enrolled across six dose levels and eight patients experienced dose-limiting toxicities, including grade 3 diarrhea (n = 2), rash (n = 2), nausea (n = 1), multiple grade 2 toxicities (n = 1), and aspartate aminotransferase elevation (n = 1), resulting in the inability to receive 75% of planned doses (n = 2) or treatment delay (n = 2). The RP2R with continuous dosing was 750 mg lapatinib QD plus 1 mg trametinib QD and with intermittent dosing 750 mg lapatinib QD and trametinib 1.5 mg QD 5 days on/2 days off. Regression of target lesions was seen in 6 of the 24 patients evaluable for response, with one confirmed partial response in NSCLC. Pharmacokinetic results were as expected. CONCLUSION: Lapatinib and trametinib could be combined in an intermittent dosing schedule in patients with manageable toxicity. Preliminary signs of anti-tumor activity in NSCLC have been observed and pharmacodynamic target engagement was demonstrated.
