Treatment of Metastatic Breast Cancer

2
Introduction
  • Metastatic breast cancer is an important problem
    in women throughout the world.
  • It is the leading cause of cancer death of women
    aged lt 50 years.

3
  • Therefore, a big number of researches, studies
    and clinical trials about this disease and the
    best management of it.

4
Systemic Treatment Approach for Metastatic
Breast Cancer
Metastatic Breast Cancer
  • Limited metastases (bone soft tissue)
  • Positive hormone receptors
  • Hormone responsive
  • Disease-free interval ?2 years
  • Extensive disease or visceral crisis
  • Negative hormone receptors
  • No response to hormones

Hormonal Therapy

Hormonal Therapies Metastatic Breast Cancer
  • Tamoxifen 20 mg po daily
  • Anastrozole 1 mg po daily, letrozole 2.5 mg or
    Exemestane 25 mg (post-menopausal)
  • Fulvestrant (500 mg IM load then 250 mg IM)
  • Megace 40 mg po 4 x daily
  • Aminoglutethemide 250 mg po 4 x daily with
    hydrocortisone (post-menopausal)
  • luteinizing hormone releasing analog 7.5 mg
    depot every 28 days (pre-menopausal)
  • oophorectomy

7
AFINITOR
  • AFINITOR (everolimus) Tablets is a prescription
    medicine used to treat advanced hormone
    receptor-positive(ERPR) and (HER2 - )breast
    cancer, along with the medicine exemestane, in
    postmenopausal women who have already received
    certain other medicines for their cancer.

8
Materials Methods
  • 20 patients, with certain criteria,
  • Docetaxel (TXT) Doxorubicine is the corner stone
    in the treatment of MBC, therefore, new
    combination (TXT Doxo) 4 cycles then 4 cycles
    of TXT as single agent, to evaluate the efficacy
    and safety of this combination.

Results
  • The best management of MBC is done by dividing
    patients into 2 groups
  • 1.Low risk group which treated by hormonal
    therapy.
  • 2.Intermediate-High risk group which treated by
    chemotherapy.

13
Discussions
  • Trastuzumab (Herceptine) monoclonal antibodies is
    the treatment of choice for patients with MBC and
    Her/neu .
  • Surgery and radiotherapy is used in MBC only for
    palliation.
