Clinical Data on SG Use in Patients With BrM in mBC Studies

In the phase 3 ASCENT study, which evaluated safety and efficacy of SG in patients with mTNBC, 12% of patients had previously treated and stable BrM at baseline (BMPos: SG group, n=32; TPC group, n=29).2

  • In a post hoc subgroup analysis in patients who were BMPos, the median (95% CI) PFS was 2.8 (1.5–3.9) mo in the SG group and 1.6 (1.3–2.9) mo in the TPC group. The safety profile among the subgroup of patients who were BMPos was consistent with the profile seen in the full ASCENT safety population.3

In TROPiCS-02, a phase 3 study of SG vs TPC in HR+/HER2- mBC, patients with previously treated BrM may participate if their BrM are stable for ≥4 wk. At this time, results in the stable BrM subgroup have not been reported.4

A phase 0/early phase 1 study evaluated the intratumoral concentrations and intracranial activity of SG in patients undergoing craniotomy for BCBM. In the BCBM cohort, most AEs were Grade 1 or 2. The median (range) PFS was 8 (2–26.5) mo. SN-38 levels showed penetration into intracranial tumor tissue.5

Real-World Data on SG Use in Patients With BrM

A real-world study evaluated the use of SG in 103 patients with mTNBC with a focus on BrM and toxicity and included patients with active or stable BrM (n=32, 31.1%) and impaired performance status. The median (95% CI) PFS was 3.7 (2.6–‍6.2) mo, and the median (95% CI) OS was 6.7 (56.3–NR) mo in patients who were BMPos. ORR in the BMPos population was 19.8% (n=6).6

  • In the BMPos population, 26 patients (81.2%) discontinued SG mostly due to disease progression. AEs that led to SG dose reduction were reported in 4 patients (12.5%), with no reports of SG-related death.6

A retrospective cohort study (N=98) investigated whether SRT for intact BrM used concurrently with an ADC, including SG, was associated with an increased risk of SRN. Concurrent ADC was associated with a higher risk of SRN in multivariable analyses (P<0.001) that also controlled for prior RT (P=0.01) and BrM volume (P<0.001). No ADC agent was associated with the risk of SRN (P=0.74).7

In a retrospective, observational study of SG in 33 patients with HER2- mBC and CNS metastases (treated/stable BrM, active BrM, and LMD), the overall median (95% CI) CNS and extra-CNS PFS was 2.9 (2–4.3) mo and 2.6 (1.9–4) mo, respectively. Three patients (TNBC, n=2; HR+/HER2-, n=1) had bicompartmental PFS that was >10 mo; each had surgery and brain RT. No safety data were reported.8

In a retrospective, multicenter study of SG in 29 patients with mTNBC and BrM, the median OS and PFS were 8.9 mo and 3.09 mo, respectively. There was no statistically significant association between the number or size of CNS lesions with OS or PFS. AEs resulted in dose delays in 15 patients (51.7%), dose reductions in 11 patients (37.9%), and discontinuations in 2 patients (7.7%).9

Ongoing Clinical Study

An open-label, phase 2 study (NCT04647916) is evaluating the efficacy and safety of SG in HER2- breast cancer that has metastasized to the brain.

Clinical Data on SG Use in Patients With BrM

ASCENT Study in mTNBC

The ASCENT study, a global, openlabel, randomized, confirmatory, phase 3 study, was conducted to investigate efficacy and safety of SG vs chemotherapy TPC in patients with refractory or relapsed mTNBC who received ≥2 prior chemotherapies for unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic disease.2

Patients with mTNBC (N=529) were enrolled and randomly assigned (1:1) to receive SG 10 mg/kg IV on Days 1 and 8 of a 21-d cycle (n=267) or single-agent TPC (n=262 [ie, eribulin, n=139; vinorelbine, n=52; gem, n=38; and cape, n=33]). Treatment was continued until the first of the following events: disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, discontinuation from the study, or death. The study protocol allowed a predefined maximum of 15% for patients with BrM for ≥4 wk. Patients with known BrM required baseline brain MRI/CT scans that were conducted every 6 wk for 36 wk and every 9 wk thereafter until disease progression led to study treatment discontinuation; confirmatory imaging was performed 4 to 6 wk after attaining responses.2

Post hoc subgroup analysis of patients with stable BrM3

A post hoc subgroup analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of SG in patients who were BMPos, defined as having stable CNS disease for ≥4 wk by MRI, ≥2 wk from discontinuation of antiseizure medication, and corticosteroid dose (≤20 mg prednisone equivalent) that was stable or decreasing for ≥2 wk. Among the patients (N=529) enrolled in the ASCENT study, 61 (12%) patients were BMPos (SG, n=32; TPC, n=29). From the SG and TPC groups, 2 (6%) and 6 (21%) patients, respectively, did not receive treatment. Baseline characteristics were generally balanced between the ITT and BMPos study populations (Table 1).

Patient disease characteristics were generally similar between patients in the BMNeg and BMPos populations with a few exceptions.3 BRCA mutations were reported in 15% vs 7% of patients who were BMPos and BMNeg, respectively. In patients who were BMPos and BMNeg, 82% vs 69% of patients were diagnosed with TNBC initially, the median (range) number of prior anticancer regimens was 4 (2–9) vs 3 (1–16), 43% vs 30% had >3 prior chemotherapies, 79% vs 65% had prior cape therapy, and 43% vs 27% had previous checkpoint inhibitors prior to enrollment, respectively. Compared to 44% and 22% of patients who were BMNeg, 67% and 36% of patients who were BMPos had major tumor locations in the lung and bone, respectively.

Efficacy

In the SG vs TPC group in the BMPos population, the median PFS (95% CI) was 2.8 (1.5–‍3.9) mo vs 1.6 (1.3–2.9) mo (HR, 0.65; 95% CI: 0.35–1.22), and the median OS (95% CI) was 7 (4.7–14.7) mo vs 7.5 (4.7–11.1) mo (HR, 0.96; 95% CI: 0.55–1.68). Response rates are presented in Table 2.

Safety

The safety profile among the subgroup of patients who were BMPos was consistent with the profile observed in the full ASCENT safety population. In the BMPos subgroup, the most common (>20%) TEAEs of any grade were fatigue (63% vs 52%), neutropenia (63% vs 52%), diarrhea (50% vs 13%), nausea (43% vs 26%), decreased appetite (30% vs 17%), anemia (23% vs 35%), alopecia (23% vs 13%), and constipation (23% vs 22%) in the SG vs TPC groups, respectively.

TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation in the BMPos subgroup occurred in 2 (7%) and 2 (9%) patients in the SG and TPC groups, respectively. In this subgroup, there were no reports of treatment-emergent death and 1 report of treatment-emergent death in the SG and TPC groups, respectively.

TROPiCS-02 Study in HR+/HER2- mBC

In TROPiCS-02, an open-label, randomized, multicenter, phase 3 study comparing the safety and efficacy of SG with TPC in patients with HR+/HER2- mBC who have received ≥2 and ≤4 prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease, as well as ≥1 endocrine therapy, taxane, and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor,10 patients with previously treated BrM may participate provided they meet specific criteria, such as having clinically stable signs and symptoms for ≥4 wk, and more.4

At this time, the efficacy and safety of SG in the patient subgroup with stable BrM have not been reported.10,11

Prospective, Single-Center Study: SG in BCBM

A prospective, single-center, window-of-opportunity, phase 0/early phase 1 study evaluated intratumoral concentrations and intracranial activity of SG in patients (aged ≥18 y) undergoing craniotomy for BCBM or rGBM. Patients received a single IV dose of SG 10 mg/kg 1 d before surgical resection. Patients resumed treatment with SG 10 mg/kg on Days 1 and 8 of 21d treatment cycles following recovery from surgery. Tumor and serum levels of SG, SN38, and SN38G were collected during surgery.5

In the BCBM cohort, 13 female patients were screened for inclusion and 1 patient failed screening; patients had a mean age (range) of 48.5 (33–70) y, 12 (93%) were White, 1 (7%) was Black/African American, 7 (54%) were HR+, 7 (54%) were HER2+, and 3 (23%) had TNBC.5

Preliminary safety and efficacy results

In the BCBM cohort, most AEs were Grade 1 or 2, which included diarrhea, neutropenia, nausea, hypokalemia, and fatigue.5

Efficacy outcomes in the BCBM cohort are shown in Table 3.

Additionally, several assays were evaluated to investigate potential mechanisms of action for SG in the CNS and included quantification of tumor expression for Trop-2 (a marker of antigen expression), γH2AX (a marker of DNA damage), and CAIX (a marker of intratumoral hypoxia).5

In the BCBM cohort, 12 samples were sufficient for Trop-2 analysis, and all had an H-score of 3+. Trop-2 expression did not correlate with % SN-38 tissue-to-serum ratio (Pearson r2, 0.018; 95% CI: -0.23 to 0.81; P=0.18). Expression of γH2AX (n=11) ranged from 33.1% to 81.2% (mean, 54.4%), and 5 of the 11 samples indicated high CAIX expression.5

Real-World Data on SG Use in Patients With BrM

Real-World Study in mTNBC6

An ambispective, bicentric cohort study assessed the real-world efficacy and safety of SG in patients with mTNBC treated through the French Early Access Program (May 2021 to January 2023). Of the 103 patients enrolled, the median age (range) at baseline was 55 (26–89) y, 80.6% of patients had an ECOG PS of 0 to 1, 64.1% of patients had 1 to 2 prior lines of treatment in the advanced setting, and 31.1% (n=32) were BMPos.

In the BMPos population, the median (95% CI) PFS was 3.7 (2.6–‍6.2) mo, the median (95% CI) OS was 6.7 (56.3–NR) mo, and the ORR was 19.8% (n=6). SG treatment discontinuation was reported in 26 patients (81.2%) and was mostly due to disease progression. AEs that led to SG dose reduction were reported in 4 patients (12.5%), with no reports of death.

Retrospective Cohort Study: ADCs With SRT for BrM7

A retrospective cohort study (N=98) investigated whether SRT for intact BrM used concurrently with an ADC, including SG, was associated with an increased risk of SRN. Patients who had received ≥1 course of SRT for intact BrM between January 1, 2014, and October 24, 2022, and ≥1 dose of ADC were eligible for inclusion (Table 5). The control cohort consisted of patients with BrM who received ADCs sequentially with SRT. Results were pooled across ADCs, and SG-specific data were not provided.

Results

The median (IQR) time from SRT to last imaging was 12.4 (0–80.4) mo. Across the entire cohort, the 24-mo cumulative incidence (range) of SRN was 8.5% (6.2–11%). The use of concurrent ADC was associated with a higher risk of SRN in univariable and multivariable analyses that also controlled for prior RT and BrM volume (Table 6). For previously radiated lesions in patients with and without concurrent ADC therapy, the 24mo risk of SRN was 42% and 9.4%, respectively. Among patients with BrM who were treated with concurrent ADC therapy, no ADC agent was associated with the risk of SRN (P=0.74). Grade 4 to 5 SRN after SRT was observed in 11 of 156 (7.1%) and 3 of 408 (0.7%) lesions treated with and without concurrent ADC, respectively.

Retrospective, Observational Real-World Study8

A retrospective, observational real-world study evaluated clinical outcomes with SG (≥1 dose of SG between 2018 and 2022) treatment in patients with HER2- mBC and CNS metastases. Of the 33 patients included, 23 and 10 had TNBC and HR+/HER2- mBC, respectively. Overall, 18 patients had treated/stable BrM (defined as lesions that had been previously treated with CNS-specific therapies), 7 had active BrM (defined as those with new BrM or progressed BrM that had not been treated with CNS-specific therapies since progression), and 8 had LMD (defined as metastases in the leptomeningeal space with or without BrM). One patient had CNS metastases without extra-CNS involvement. Additional baseline characteristics are shown in Table 7.

Retrospective, Multicenter Study in mTNBC and BrM9

A retrospective, multicenter study evaluated effectiveness and safety in patients with mTNBC and radiologically confirmed BrM treated with SG at centers in the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia between August 2021 and May 2025. Of the 29 patients included in the analysis, the median (IQR) age was 48.5 (42.1–58) y; the median number (range) of prior palliative systemic therapy lines was 2 (1–3); 24.1%, 72.4%, and 3.4% had ECOG PS scores of 0, 1, and ≥2, respectively. Overall, 89.7% had invasive ductal histological subtype, and 3.4% each had invasive lobular, metaplastic, and secretory subtypes; 51.7%, 27.6%, 6.9%, and 13.8% had HER2 IHC of 0, 1+, 2+, and unknown status, respectively; 13.8% had a history of ER- or PgR+ BC and 6.9% had a history of HER2+ BC; 24.1% had a history of BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation; and 72.4% had a history of breast RT. The median (range) number of BrMs was 2 (1–20), and the median (range) size of the biggest lesion was 16.5 (2–50) mm. Four patients (14.3%) had neurosurgical resection and 28 (89.3%) had CNS-directed RT. In the palliative setting, the most common (≥20%) prior treatments included the following: platinum compounds (63.3%), taxanes (50%), anthracyclines (43.3%), cape (30%), gem (26.7%), and pembrolizumab (20%).

Results

After a median (IQR) follow-up of 6.05 (3.66–11.66) mo, 22 patients had died and 26 had stopped treatment with SG. The median OS was 8.9 mo, and estimated OS rates at 3, 6, 9, and 12 mo were 85.2%, 60.3%, 42.3%, and 28.2%, respectively. The median PFS was 3.09 mo, and PFS rates at 3, 6, 9, and 12 mo were 53.6%, 31.4%, 22.5%, and 12%, respectively. Of the 26 patients with evaluable data, the ORR was 30.8% (n=8). CNS progression occurred in 23.1% of patients (n=6), and per univariable Cox proportional hazards model, there was no statistically significant association between the number or size of CNS lesions with effectiveness outcomes (OS and PFS; P-value not provided).

No new safety signals were reported. AEs resulted in dose delays in 15 patients (51.7%) and dose reductions in 11 (37.9%). SG was discontinued due to toxicities in 2 patients (7.7%).
