Perjeta (pertuzumab) [product information]. EMA. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has authorized pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence. This indication is based on APHINITY (BO25126), a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial. Investigators selected one of the following chemotherapy regimes: (i) 3 or 4 cycles of FEC or 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (FAC), followed by 3 or 4 cycles of docetaxel or 12 cycles of weekly paclitaxel; (ii) 4 cycles of AC or epirubicin and cyclophosphamide (EC), followed by 3 or 4 cycles of docetaxel or 12 cycles of weekly paclitaxel; or (iii) 6 cycles of docetaxel in combination with carboplatin.
Phesgo (pertuzumab / trastuzumab) [product information]. EMA. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has authorized Phesgo (pertuzumab / trastuzumab) in combination with chemotherapy in the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence. This indication is based on APHINITY (BO25126), a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-cotrolled phase 3 trial conducted in 4804 patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer. Within this trial, investigators had the choice of one of the following chemotherapy regimens: 3 or 4 cycles of FEC or 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (FAC), followed by 3 or 4 cycles of docetaxel or 12 cycles of weekly paclitaxell; 4 cycles of AC or epirubicin and cyclophosphamide (EC), followed by 3 or 4 cycles of docetaxel or 12 cycles of weekly paclitaxel; or 6 cycles of docetaxel in combination with carboplatin.
Perjeta (pertuzumab) [package insert]. FDA. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted approval to pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence. This indication is based on Aphinity (NCT01358877) a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study where patients received one of the following anthracycline-based or non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens: (1) cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, docetaxel, 5-fu; (2) cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, paclitaxel, 5-fu; (3) cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, docetaxel, 5-fu; (4) cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, paclitaxel, 5-fu; (5) doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, docetaxel; (6) epirubicin, cyclophosphamide, docetaxel; (7) doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel; (8) epirubicin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel; (9) carboplatin, docetaxel.
Phesgo (pertuzumab and trastuzumab) [package insert]. FDA. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted approval to Phesgo (pertuzumab and trastuzumab) in combination with chemotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence. This indication is based on Aphinity (NCT01358877) a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study where patients received one of the following anthracycline-based or non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens: (1) cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, docetaxel, 5-fu; (2) cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, paclitaxel, 5-fu; (3) cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, docetaxel, 5-fu; (4) cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, paclitaxel, 5-fu; (5) doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, docetaxel; (6) epirubicin, cyclophosphamide, docetaxel; (7) doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel; (8) epirubicin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel; (9) carboplatin, docetaxel. The FeDeriCa study (NCT03493854) demonstrated comparable pharmacokinetics and safety profiles between Phesgo and intravenous pertuzumab and intravenous trastuzumab.
Pertuzumab and Trastuzumab and Chemotherapy Therapy - 21 day cycle. NCCP National SACT Regimen. HSE. The Republic of Ireland's Health Service Executive (HSE) has approved pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with HER2-positive breast cancer at high risk of recurrence. This indication is based on APHINITY (BO25126), a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial.
