The Paradox of higher sensitivity to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in poor
prognosis subtype (TNBC) is explained by the high relapse among pts with
residual disease

• Abstract #1003
– PrECOG 0105: Final efficacy results from a phase II
study of gemcitabine (G) and carboplatin (C) plus
iniparib (BSI-201) as neoadjuvant therapy for triplenegative (TN) and BRCA1/2 mutation-associated
breast cancer. (Melinda L. Telli)
• Abstract #1004
– A randomized phase II trial investigating the addition
of carboplatin to neoadjuvant therapy for triplenegative and HER2-positive early breast cancer
(GeparSixto). (Gunter Von Minckwitz)

BALI-1 Trial
Baselga, SABCS 2010
The difference between the arms was not significant (p=0.11) and the ORR in the cetuximab
plus cisplatin arm did not exceed 20% (p=0.50; one-sided Z-test with a significance level
of alpha/2=0.05), therefore the simultaneous null hypothesis could not be rejected.

TNBC subtypes differ in RFS
• RFS decreased in LAR
subtype compared with
BL-1, IM and MSL
(p<0,005)
• Better RFS in BL-1
