Abstract:
PURPOSE:To investigate the activity and tolerance of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin in combination with vinorelbine in pretreated patients with metastatic breast cancer. PATIENTS AND TREATMENT:Thirty-six women with metastatic breast cancer were enrolled. The median age was 64 years, 80% of the patients had a performance status of 0-1, 30 (83%) had visceral disease and 83% had received prior taxanes while 50% anthracyclines. Treatment consisted of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (40 mg/m2 on day 1) and vinorelbine (25 mg/m2 on days 1 and 15) every 4 weeks. RESULTS:In an intention-to-treat analysis 2 (6%) complete and 12 (33%) partial responses were observed (overall response rate 39%; 95% CI: 23-54.8%); 8 (22%) and 14 (39%) patients experienced stable and progressive disease, respectively. The median TTP was 6.5 months and the median survival time 14.2 months. The 1-year survival rate was 54.1%. Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia occurred in 21 (58%) patients, grade 3-4 anemia in four (11%) and grade 4 thrombocytopenia in one (3%). Two (6%) patients developed febrile neutropenia. Non-hematologic toxicity was mild and easily manageable. There was no clinically important cardiac toxicity or treatment-related deaths. CONCLUSIONS:The combination of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and vinorelbine is an active and well tolerated salvage regimen in patients with metastatic breast cancer which merits further evaluation.
