Docetaxel carboplatin breast cancer triple negative

BACKGROUND: Stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs) are associated with pathologic complete response (pCR) and long-term outcomes for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in setting of anthracycline-based chemotherapy. Impact of sTILs on refining outcomes beyond prognostic information provided by pCR in anthracycline-free neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is not known. PATIENTS & METHODS: This is pooled analysis of two studies where patients with stage I(T>1cm)-III TNBC received carboplatin(AUC 6) plus docetaxel(75mg/m2) (CbD) NAC...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with poor prognosis and limited treatment options due to the lack of important receptors (estrogen receptor [ER], progesterone receptor [PR], and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 [HER2]) used for targeted therapy. However, high-throughput in vitro drug screening of cell lines is a powerful tool for identifying effective drugs for a disease. Here, we determine the intrinsic chemosensitivity of TNBC cell lines to proteasome inhibitors (PIs), thereby identifying potentially potent 2-drug combinations for TNBC...

IMPORTANCE: Addition of pembrolizumab to anthracycline-based chemotherapy improves pathologic complete response (pCR) and event-free survival (EFS) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The efficacy of anthracycline-free chemoimmunotherapy in TNBC has not been assessed. OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of the anthracycline-free neoadjuvant regimen of carboplatin and docetaxel plus pembrolizumab in TNBC. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This was an open-label phase 2 clinical trial including a single group of patients with stage I to III TNBC enrolled at 2 sites who received neoadjuvant carboplatin and docetaxel plus pembrolizumab every 21 days for 6 cycles...

We assessed the efficacy, tolerability, and cost-effectiveness of a novel neoadjuvant regimen comprising docetaxel-cyclophosphamide alternating with epirubicin-cisplatin (ddDCEP) administered biweekly for 16 weeks in 116 patients with early triple-negative breast cancer. This regimen achieved a high pathological complete response (ypT0/TisN0) rate of 55.2% and favorable survival outcomes (30-month event-free survival, 91.2%; overall survival, 97%). Febrile neutropenia was observed in 4.3% of patients, and 98% completed at least six of eight cycles...

PURPOSE: To explore medications and their administration patterns in real-world patients with breast cancer. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed using TriNetX, a federated network of deidentified, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act-compliant data from 21 health care organizations across North America. Patients diagnosed with breast cancer between January 1, 2013, and May 31, 2022, were included. We investigated a rule-based and unsupervised learning algorithm to extract medications and their administration patterns...

While standard treatment has shown efficacy in patients with breast cancer gene ( BRCA ) mutations, recurrence rates are high and additional effective therapies are needed. Olaparib, a poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, approved for the treatment of metastatic germline BRCA1 / BRCA2 breast cancer (BC), has demonstrated evidence of a progression-free survival (PFS) benefit, good safety profile, and improved quality of life compared with standard chemotherapy. We here describe the case of a patient with BRCA1 mutated advanced BC and a long history of response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy who received systemic treatment with olaparib...

UNLABELLED: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) constitutes 10%-15% of all breast tumors. The current standard of care is multiagent chemotherapy, which is effective in only a subset of patients. The original objective of this study was to deploy a mass spectrometry (MS)-based kinase inhibitor pulldown assay (KIPA) to identify kinases elevated in non-pCR (pathologic complete response) cases for therapeutic targeting. Frozen optimal cutting temperature compound-embedded core needle biopsies were obtained from 43 patients with TNBC before docetaxel- and carboplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy...

PURPOSE: The TNT trial (NCT00532727) showed no evidence of carboplatin superiority over docetaxel in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), but carboplatin benefit was observed in the germline BRCA1/2 mutation subgroup. Broader response-predictive biomarkers are needed. We explored the predictive ability of DNA damage response (DDR) and immune markers. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes were evaluated for 222 of 376 patients. Primary tumors (PT) from 186 TNT participants (13 matched recurrences) were profiled using total RNA sequencing...

Treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is challenging because of its "COLD" tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment (TIME). Here, we present a hydrogel-mediated localized delivery of a combination of docetaxel (DTX) and carboplatin (CPT) (called DTX-CPT-Gel therapy) that ensured enhanced anticancer effect and tumor regression on multiple murine syngeneic and xenograft tumor models. DTX-CPT-Gel therapy modulated the TIME by an increase of antitumorigenic M1 macrophages, attenuation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells, and increase of granzyme B+ CD8+ T cells...

BACKGROUND/AIM: The efficacy of retreatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) positive metastatic or recurrent triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) remains unknown. We report a case of a patient with recurrent triple-negative breast cancer who was successfully treated with two different ICIs in combination with chemotherapy. CASE REPORT: A 60-year-old female patient was treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of epirubicin + cyclophosphamide (EC) followed by docetaxel (DTX)...

PURPOSE: Pathologic complete response (pCR) rates of patients with triple-negative breast cancer who were administered docetaxel plus carboplatin were significantly higher than those of patients administered epirubicin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel in the neoadjuvant NeoCART trial. Here, we performed a preplanned secondary analysis of the homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) score as a predictor of the pCR in patients with triple-negative breast cancer from the NeoCART cohort...

PURPOSE: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most malignant subtype of breast cancer. As yet, chemotherapy with drugs such as doxorubicin is the main treatment strategy. However, drug resistance and dose-dependent toxicities restrict their clinical use. Natural products are major sources of anti-tumor drugs. OSW-1 is a natural compound with strong anti-cancer effects in several types of cancer, but its effects on the efficacy of chemotherapy in TNBC and its underlying mechanism remain unclear...

Background: Breast and ovarian cancer stem cells (CSC) can contribute to the invasive and chemoresistance phenotype of tumors. TH1902, a newly developed sortilin (SORT1)-targeted peptide-docetaxel conjugate is currently in phase-1 clinical trial. Whether TH1902 impacts the chemoresistance phenotype of human triple-negative breast CSC (hTNBCSC) and ovarian CSC (hOvCSC) is unknown. Methods and Results: Immunophenotyping of hTNBCSC and hOvCSC was performed by flow cytometry and confirmed the expression of SORT1, and of CSC markers CD133, NANOG, and SOX2...

Microscaled proteogenomics was deployed to probe the molecular basis for differential response to neoadjuvant carboplatin and docetaxel combination chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Proteomic analyses of pre-treatment patient biopsies uniquely revealed metabolic pathways, including oxidative phosphorylation, adipogenesis and fatty acid metabolism, that were resistance-associated. Both proteomics and transcriptomics revealed sensitivity was marked by elevation of DNA repair, E2F targets, G2M checkpoint, interferon-gamma signaling and immune checkpoint components...

Platinum (Pt) derivatives such as cisplatin and carboplatin are the class of drugs with proven activity against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This is due to the ability of Pt compounds to interfere with the DNA repair mechanisms of the neoplastic cells. Taxanes have been efficacious against estrogen receptor-negative tumors and act by disruption of microtubule function. Due to their distinct mechanisms of action and routes of metabolism, the combination of the Pt agents and taxanes results in reduced systemic toxicity, which is ideal for treating TNBC...

BACKGROUND: Paclitaxel/docetaxel after doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide (ECT) is considered as an adjuvant chemotherapy and improves the survival of early triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. We aim to assess whether carboplatin plus taxanes (TP) is non-inferior to ECT in prolonging the survival time. METHODS: TNBC patients were randomized (1:1) to receive ECT (90 mg/m2 epirubicin + 600 mg/m2 cyclophosphamide followed by 75 mg/m2 docetaxel or 175 mg/m2 paclitaxel every 3 weeks, n = 154) or TP (75 mg/m2 docetaxel or 175 mg/m2 paclitaxel + carboplatin AUC 5 every 3 weeks, n = 154)...

Background: The microenvironment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) can be divided into three clusters based on bioinformatics-based immunogenomic analysis: the "immune-desert" cluster, the "innate immune-inactivated" cluster, and the "immune-inflamed" cluster. The immune-inflamed cluster is considered as "hot tumor" while the other two are considered as "cold tumor". Methods: To investigate the prognostic effect of microenvironment phenotypes on TNBC, we compared relapse-free survival (RFS) of different phenotypes in 100 patients with RNA sequencing-based expression data from the PATTERN trial (NCT01216111, published in JAMA Oncol 2020), which indicated a superior efficacy of adjuvant paclitaxel-plus-carboplatin regimen compared to the regimen of cyclophosphamide/epirubicin/fluorouracil followed by docetaxel for TNBC...

Previous studies have shown that the addition of carboplatin to neoadjuvant chemotherapy improved the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in patients suffering from triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and patients who obtained a pCR could achieve prolonged event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS). However, no studies have assessed the effects of the combination of docetaxel and carboplatin without anthracycline with taxane-based and anthracycline-based regimens. The NeoCART study was designed as a multicenter, randomized controlled, open-label, phase II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of docetaxel combined with carboplatin in untreated stage II-III TNBC...

PURPOSE: Patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who do not achieve pathological complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy have a high risk of recurrence and death. Molecular characterization may identify patients unlikely to achieve pCR. This neoadjuvant trial was conducted to determine the pCR rate with docetaxel and carboplatin and to identify molecular alterations and/or immune gene signatures predicting pCR. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Patients with clinical stages II/III TNBC received 6 cycles of docetaxel and carboplatin...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is highly responsive to neoadjuvant polychemotherapy regimens including anthracyclines, taxanes, and, more recently, carboplatin. However, there is inadequate information on the individual contribution of each of these agents to the global activity of the combinations, and the use of combinations of up to four of these drugs is associated with relevant toxicity. Identifying single-drug activity in the clinical neoadjuvant setting is challenging. We developed patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) from several chemotherapy-naïve TNBC samples to assess the antitumor activity of single drugs and combinations of drugs...
