Pulmonary toxicities in patients (pts) with metastatic breast cancer (mBC) treated with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd): The Mayo Clinic experience.

11145 Background: T-DXd is increasingly used in mBC. A T-DXd toxicity of special interest is interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis (ILD), occurring in 10-15% of pts in the DESTINY-Breast trials, and with potential lower incidence/severity in earlier line settings Krop et al, ASCO 2023. However, in routine practice, T-DXd may be used in pts with more heavily pre-treated mBC and previously exposed to other antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) Premji et al SABCS 2023. We evaluated the incidence/severity of T-DXd related ILD in mBC at Mayo Clinic. Methods: We retrospectively identified pts with mBC who received ≥1 dose of T-DXd at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, between July 2022-December 2023. Demographic, mBC, and pulmonary clinical variables were abstracted from the clinical records. Data was summarized using descriptive statistics. Diagnosis of ILD was determined by treating clinicians, and severity to CTCAE V5 based on clinical documentation. Results: 77 pts with mBC received T-DXd during the study period. All were female, the majority (70, 91%) were Caucasian, and median age was 58. 53 (69%) had HER2-low mBC (37 HR+, 16 HR-) and 24 (31%) had HER2+ mBC (17 HR+, 7 HR-). 31 (40%) were active or former smokers. 11 (14%) had pulmonary comorbidities, including 6 (7.8%) with asthma, 2 (2.6%) with prior pneumonitis, and 3 (3.9%) with other pulmonary comorbidities. They had previously received a median of 1 line of endocrine therapy, and 4 lines of chemotherapy, with 20 (26%) having received another ADC. 17 (22%) developed any grade ILD G1: 3 (4%), G2: 7 (9%), G3: 2 (3%), G4: 1 (1%), G5: 4 (5%). Among pts with ILD of any grade, 13 (76.5%) presented with at least 1 symptom (cough/SOB). The median number of T-DXd cycles prior to onset of any grade ILD was 6 (range 2-13), or 18 (range 6-39) weeks. 5 (29%) pts with any grade ILD received a prior ADC. Of pts with ≥G3 ILD (n=7), all were Caucasian, 2 (30%) were prior smokers, none had prior lung disease, and had received a median of 5 prior lines of chemo, with 4 (57%) having received a prior ADC. All grade ≥2 ILDs were treated with systemic steroids, and 1 also received IVIG. CT chest was used for diagnosis of all ILD. 7 pts (41%) required hospitalization, all of whom had bronchoscopy, with 5 (29%) requiring intubation. All pts with G1 ILD (3, 18%) restarted T-DXd without ILD recurrence. Conclusions: In this case series,22% of ps treated with T-DXd experienced ILD (5% G5), higher than the rate observed in the pivotal DESTINY-Breast trials, possibly due to real-world use of T-DXd in more heavily pre-treated pts and in pts with pulmonary comorbidities.
