Abstract Purpose IMpassion130 led to the approval of atezolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel as first-line treatment for patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative, PD-L1 immune-cell positive breast cancer (BC) by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). The objective of the present study was to investigate the implementation, safety and efficacy of this combination in the initial phase after approval. Methods A retrospective data analysis including all BC patients who received atezolizumab and nab-paclitaxel between 1.1.2019 and 31.10.2020 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Department of Medicine 1, respectively, at the Medical University of Vienna, Austria, was performed. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated with the Kaplan-Maier product-limit method. Owing to the retrospective nature of this study, all statistics must be considered exploratory. Results In total 20 patients were included in the study. Median follow-up was 7.1 months (IQR 5.2–9.1). Median PFS was 3.0 months (SE = .24; 95% CI [2.5; 3.5]). Median OS was 8.94 months (SE = 2.34, 95%CI [4.35; 13.53]). No new safety signals were observed. Conclusion The present study showed a considerably shorter PFS (3.0 vs. 7.5 months) and OS (8.94 vs. 25.0 months) than IMpassion130 putatively owing to the use of atezolizumab in later treatment lines, more aggressive tumors and a study population with higher morbidity compared to the pivotal trial.
