“Agosto Ho terminato di visitare i pazienti ricoverati e sto rientrando nel mio studio dove mi attende Aurelio Di Marco per illustrarmi le caratteristiche di un nuovo farmaco antitumorale che è stato isolato da Federico Arcamone nei laboratori di Farmitalia. Si chiama Adriamicina……”. Bonadonna G, Sursum corda. In: “Dall’altra parte” Ed. Rizzoli, 2006

Anthracyclines and Early Breast Cancer: The End of an Era? L. Gianni, Journal of Clinical Oncology 2009 Anthracyclines are a mainstay of adjuvant therapy for breast cancer patients worldwide, but some research data suggest that not all patients benefit. Some of the latest studies suggest that a large majority of patients (70%–80%) might not benefit, Early Breast Cancer can be treated with less toxic but equivalent regimens.

31 The role of topoisomerase II alpha and HER-2 in predicting sensitivity to anthracyclines in breast cancer patients. Oakman C, Moretti E, Galardi F, Santarpia L, Di Leo A In the search for predictive biomarkers to refine clinical prescription of cytotoxic agents, both HER-2 and topo IIα are under exploration for their potential role in identifying individuals with early breast cancer who may benefit from anthracycline therapy. Whilst recent meta-analyses support a predictive role for HER-2 amplification, it remains unclear whether HER-2 is the critical biomarker or whether it is a surrogate marker for topo IIα alteration, a known drug target of anthracyclines. The major limitation in considering HER-2 as a single marker is heterogeneity within the subgroups of HER-2 positive and HER-2 negative disease. Cancer Treat Rev Sep 14.

32 The role of topoisomerase II alpha and HER-2 in predicting sensitivity to anthracyclines in breast cancer patients. Oakman C, Moretti E, Galardi F, Santarpia L, Di Leo A. For topo IIα, current data is inconclusive. Issues plaguing this field are technical variability in marker definition, complex regulation pathway of topo IIα and lack of prospective, adequately powered studies. With current evidence, neither HER-2 nor topo IIα gene status can be considered clinically valuable markers for anthracycline benefit. Cancer Treat Rev Sep 14.

42 Summing-up Anthracyclines remain a mainstay of EBC and ABC treatment
Cardiovascular and leukemogen risk however is not trivial and should not be overlooked Data suggest that only some subgroups may derive specific benefits from anthracyclines (although not conclusive) Available non-anthra-based regimens may help us manage uncertainty while further data accumulate M. de Laurentis, XII AIOM Milano 2009
