HER2 ultra-low Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients

Efficacy
Safety
Now for previously treated patients
with HR+/HER2-low or HR+/HER2-ultralow mBC1
DESTINY-Breast06 has expanded
the potential eligibility for HER2-directed therapy
to a new group of patients1
~85-90% of patients with HR+/HER2-negative mBC may have actionable levels of HER2,
as demonstrated in DESTINY-Breast06 screening data2,a
Ask your pathologist to reassess IHC 0 results to identify patients with HER2-ultralow mBC

aAmong the 1856 patients included in the study, 12%
(225 patients) had IHC 0 with absent membrane staining, while
22% (402 patients) were classified as HER2-ultralow, defined
as IHC 0 with membrane staining.
IHC 1+ was observed in 45%
(829 patients), and IHC 2+/ISH– in 21% (385 patients).2

HR+
In patients with HR+/HER2-low (IHC 1+ or 2+/ISH–) mBC1 ENHERTU redefines efficacy with 13.2 months mPFS1,3
UPDATED ANALYSIS
(March 2024)
Primary endpoint: PFS (by BICR) in the HER2-low mBC population

Adapted from Bardia A, et al, N Engl J Med. 2024

  • Median follow-up: 18.6 months4
  • Overall survival data were immature (39%)
    at the time of analysis3,4
38% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death with ENHERTU vs chemotherapy
(HR: 0.62; 95% CI: 0.52, 0.75; P<0.0001)3
Back to top
In previously treated patients with HR+/HER2-low (IHC 1+ or 2+/ISH–) mBC1 Consistent mPFS was observed in prespecified subgroups3
UPDATED ANALYSIS
(March 2024)
Median PFS, months

Consistent results in patients after 1L ET ± targeted therapy for mBC and progression ≤6 months after starting 1L ET + CDK4/6i
or recurrence ≤24 months of starting adjuvant ET3

Size of circle is proportional to the number of events. Data show
results of an exploratory analysis; subgroups were chosen based
on DESTINY-Breast06 stratification factors.3,5 Pre-specified
subgroup analyses were not
tested for statistical significance and
not powered to show a difference between treatment arms.3

aBased on central laboratory data (ie, most recent evaluable
sample prior to randomization).3 bSpecified by investigator prior
to randomization.3

In patients with HR+/HER2-low (IHC 1+ or 2+/ISH–) mBC1 A majority of patients achieved a confirmed objective response with ENHERTU3
UPDATED ANALYSIS
(March 2024)

ORR and DOR were not tested for statistical significance, and the study was not powered to show differences between treatment arms.3

Response rates with ENHERTU and chemotherapy (secondary endpoint)3
mDOR was 14.1 months with ENHERTU(95% CI: 11.8, 15.9) and 8.6 months with chemotherapy (95% CI: 6.7, 11.3)3

ORR and DOR were not tested for statistical significance, and the study was not powered to show differences between treatment arms.3
