At the ESMO Breast Cancer Congress held in Berlin from May 3 to 5, 2022, results were presented for the VIOLETTE Phase 2 clinical trial. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of combining Olaparib (a PARP inhibitor) with Ceralasertib (an ATR inhibitor) in patients with previously treated metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
Study Design: VIOLETTE Trial
The VIOLETTE trial randomized patients with metastatic TNBC who had failed at least one prior line of therapy into two main arms:
- Olaparib Monotherapy
- Olaparib + Ceralasertib Combination
The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).
Key Results
The study results showed a modest numerical improvement in PFS with the combination, but the overall benefit remained limited:
- Median PFS: 5.3 months for the Olaparib + Ceralasertib group vs. 3.6 months for the Olaparib monotherapy group.
- Objective Response Rate (ORR):
- BRCA Mutation Patients: 50.0% (Combination) vs. 44.2% (Monotherapy).
- HRR Mutation Patients: 20.0% (Combination) vs. 15.0% (Monotherapy).
- Non-HRR Mutation Patients: 15.4% (Combination) vs. 3.9% (Monotherapy).
While the combination showed some activity in patients without homologous recombination repair (HRR) mutations, it did not provide a significant clinical breakthrough for the broader population.
Safety Profile
Common adverse events included anemia and neutropenia. Grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred in 46.8% of patients in the combination group compared to 35.5% in the monotherapy group.
Conclusion
Dr. Suzette Delaloge from Institut Gustave Roussy noted that while basic research suggested synergy between PARP and ATR inhibition, the VIOLETTE trial did not demonstrate a substantial clinical benefit for pre-treated metastatic TNBC patients with BRCA mutations. However, the signals observed in patients without HRR mutations suggest that ATR inhibition may have independent antitumor activity worth further exploration.
