ASCO 08 Metastatic Breast : Take Home Message • No major trials presented during the meeting • Main chemotherapy options remain the same • Many interesting communications on Navelbine in MBC • More and more trial results of targeted therapies • Role of Avastin in MBC: improvement of PFS with no specific targeting of pts, is this enough? • Herceptin more than ever the standard for HER 2+ patients, even after relapse ASCO 08 MBC 2

Chemotherapy duration in MBC Meta-analysis (Gennari, #1067 p) • Meta-analysis including 8 randomized studies evaluating longer vs shorter CT duration (1942 pts) • Overall, in terms of PFS, longer CT duration was associated with a 35% reduction in the risk of relapse (p=s) • Longer CT duration was associated with an 8% reduction in the risk of death (p=ns) Confirmed benefits of a longer chemotherapy duration ASCO 08 MBC 4
