ABSTRACT
Background:
The optimal (neo)adjuvant regimen for human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer regarding survival outcomes remains unclear.Methods:
We searched Web of Science, PubMed, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials systematically to find out randomized controlled studies, up to January 2022, that compared different anti-HER2 regimens in the (neo)adjuvant setting. The primary endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS). We used a Bayesian statistical model to combine direct and indirect comparisons and used odds ratios (ORs) to pool effect sizes and performed the surface under the cumulative ranking area (SUCRA) curves to estimate the ranking probabilities of various regimens. For survival outcomes, we performed two parallel analyses, one based on data from both neoadjuvant and adjuvant studies and the other specific to adjuvant studies. All statistics were two-sided.Results:
Fifteen studies were finally enrolled. Regarding DFS, the overall analysis indicated that the top two regimens for HER2-positive breast cancer were chemotherapy plus trastuzumab with lapatinib, and chemotherapy plus trastuzumab with pertuzumab (SUCAR of 81% and 79%, respectively), with the OR of 0.99 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.59 to 1.54]; the parallel analysis specific to adjuvant trials indicated that the top two regimens were chemotherapy plus trastuzumab with sequential neratinib, and chemotherapy plus trastuzumab with pertuzumab (SUCRA of 80% and 76%, respectively), with the OR of 1.04 (95% CI, 0.63 to 1.73). The dual-target therapy that combines trastuzumab and pertuzumab showed the highest risk of inducing cardiac events, with an SUCRA of 92%.Conclusions:
Chemotherapy plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab might be the optimal regimen for HER2-positive breast cancer in improving the survival rate. However, the cardiotoxicity of this dual-target therapy should be taken care of.Mots clés
