Abstract:
Purpose: The ATEMPT trial sought to determine if adjuvant T-DM1 (every 3 wks for 1 yr) for Stage I HER2 positive breast cancer is better tolerated than TH (paclitaxel weekly x 12 wks with 1 yr of trastuzumab). Here we compare patient-reported outcomes (PROs) including quality of life (QOL), specific symptoms, and work productivity between the two treatments over time. Patients and Methods: English-speaking patients were randomized (3:1) to T-DM1 or TH, and completed PRO assessments at baseline (day 1), 3 wks, 12 wks, and 6, 12, and 18 mos after initiation of treatment. Surveys included the FACT-B, Patient-Neurotoxicity Questionnaire (PNQ), Rotterdam Symptom Checklist (RSCL), Alopecia Patient Assessment, and Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem (WPAI:SHP). Results: 469/497 (94%) patients (363 on T-DM1, 106 on TH) completed surveys at any timepoint, ranging from 100% at baseline to 79% at 18 mos. Median age was 56 yrs (range 23-85). There were different patterns of deterioration and recovery seen over time in each group for QOL and other relevant symptoms. Compared with the T-DM1 group, the TH group had significantly lower mean total FACT-B scores, indicating poorer QOL from baseline to 12 weeks (p & lt;0.001 for each timepoint); mean scores were similar between the groups at 6 and 12 mos, and significantly worse again in the TH group at 18 mos. The greatest mean change from baseline, and lowest FACT-B scores overall were reported in the TH group at 12 weeks. Moderate to severe sensory neuropathy was 8% at 12 weeks for patients receiving T-DM1 and reached its highest level of 15% by 18 mos. In comparison, moderate to severe sensory neuropathy was 35% at 12 weeks and 26% at 18 mos for patients on TH (p & lt;0.001 at 12 weeks and p=0.018 at 18 mos). Hair loss at week 12 was 13% on T-DM1 compared to 77% on TH (p & lt;0.001). Mean physical symptom distress was greater for TH at baseline, 3 and 12 weeks, and greater for T-DM1 at 1 year, with greatest symptom distress reported by the TH group at 12 weeks. Psychological distress was greatest for both groups at enrollment, though significantly greater with TH than T-DM1 at baseline, 12 weeks and 18 mos (groups were similar at 6 and 12 mos). There was limited impact on activity level impairment in both groups. Rates of employment were lowest for the TH group at 12 weeks (49% TH vs. 61% T-DM1, p=0.074) with significant differences seen at 3 and 12 weeks for percent work time missed due to health treatment, percent impairment while working, percent overall work impairment, and percent activity impairment, all favoring T-DM1. Conclusion: PROs differ between patients with Stage I HER2 positive breast cancer treated with T-DM1 vs. TH. T-DM1 treated patients had better QOL, less neuropathy and hair loss, and better work productivity, particularly during the first 12 weeks of treatment, and importantly, differences persist with longer-term follow-up.
