Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - Metastasized or locally advanced incurable triple negative breast cancer; patients with stage IV at diagnosis are eligible as well. If the primary lesion is the only measurable lesion according to RECIST criteria, every locoregional treatment must be mentioned to the investigators. - Histologically confirmed triple negative breast cancer (ER: < 10% nuclear staining of tumor cells on IHC; HER2: either score 0 or 1 at immunohistochemistry or negative at in situ hybridization [CISH or FISH] in case of score 2 or 3 on IHC) 47 - Histological confirmation of triple negative breast cancer of a metastatic lesion is recommended - Histological or cytological confirmation of metastatic breast cancer is required in case of normal CA 15.3 levels, unless according to the principal investigators there is no doubt that the metastatic disease concerns triple negative breast cancer origin based on the course of the disease. In case patient has bone-only disease, a bone-biopsy of a metastatic lesion should be taken. A patient is only eligible if there is measurable or evaluable disease according to RECIST v1.1 (bone metastases with soft tissue masses measuring = 10mm). - Primary tumor or metastasis tissue (tumor blocks, or 10 x10 µm blank slides FFPE tumor material) sent to NKI-AVL for BRCA-like testing - Pretreatment histological biopsy of a metastatic lesion for the translational research questions (tumor tissue from bone metastases cannot be used). In case patient has metastatic lesions that are too risky to take a biopsy from according to the principal investigators or radiologist (including but not limited to mediastinal lymph nodus with EBUS) or the biopsy failed, patient could be included without a pretreatment biopsy of a metastatic lesion. - No previous cytotoxic therapy for metastatic disease - Disease-free interval of at least 12 months after completion of (neo)adjuvant paclitaxel or (neo)adjuvant platinum compound - Disease-free interval of at least 6 months after completion of (neo) adjuvant docetaxel - Measurable or evaluable disease according to RECIST v1.1 - WHO performance status of 0 or 1 - For women of childbearing potential: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of ? 1% per year, during the treatment period and for at least 5 months after the last dose of atezolizumab/ or 5 months after the last dose of chemotherapy, whichever is later. A woman is considered to be of childbearing potential if she is postmenarcheal, has not reached a postmenopausal state (? 12 continuous months of amenorrhea with no identified cause other than menopause), and has not undergone surgical sterilization (removal of ovaries and/or uterus). Examples of contraceptive methods with a failure rate of ? 1% per year include bilateral tubal ligation, male sterilization, established, proper use of hormonal contraceptives that inhibit ovulation, hormone-releasing intrauterine devices (IUDs), and copper IUDs. - Women who are not postmenopausal (? 12 months of non?therapy-induced amenorrhea) or surgically sterile must have a negative serum pregnancy test result within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug - Adequate bone marrow function*: neutrophils = 1.5 x 10E9 cells/l, platelets =100 x 10E9 cells/l, Hb = 6.2 mmol/l. - Normal liver function: bilirubin < 1.5 x upper limit of the normal range (ULN) (except elevated bilirubin due to Gilbert’s disease or a sim
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: -Receptor conversion to hormone receptor positive(= 10% ER positive tumor cells 44 or HER2 positive -Diagnosis of any other active malignancy prior to randomization, except those that are not believed to influence the patient’s prognosis and do not require further treatment. This includes, but is not limited to adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer and carcinoma in situ of the cervix -Other antitumor therapy within the previous 21 days, with the exception of endocrine therapy. The patient should have stopped any endocrine therapy before start study treatment. -Radiotherapy with palliative intent within the previous 7 days before start of study treatment. After 7 days patients may be included under the condition that at least one measurable/evaluable lesion was not irradiated.If radiation is needed on bone with an extensive amount of bone marrow, the interval between treatment and randomization might be longer(at the physician’s discretion) -Known CNS disease except for treated brain metastases.Treated brain metastases are defined as having no evidence of progression or hemorrhage after treatment, as ascertained by clinical examination and brain imaging during the screening period and no ongoing requirement for systemic corticosteroids.Anticonvulsants(stable dose)are allowed.Treatment for brain metastases may include whole brain radiotherapy, radiosurgery(gamma knife, LINAC or equivalent)or a combination as deemed appropriate by the treating physician. Patients with CNS metastases treated by neurosurgical resection or brain biopsy performed within 2 weeks prior to randomization will be excluded -Use of denosumab;Patients who are receiving denosumab must discontinue denosumab use and replace it with a bisphosphonate instead while on study.There is no required minimum washout period for denosumab -Uncontrolled serious medical or psychiatric illness -Pre-existing peripheral neuropathy>grade 1(NCI-CTC AE(version 4.03))at inclusion -Severe infection within 4 weeks prior to randomization -Received antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to cycle 1,day 1,for a severe infection(in need of hospitalization or in need of i.v. antibiotics) A non-severe infection includes,but is not limited to,an uncomplicated urinary tract infection -Major surgical procedure,open biopsy,or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to randomization or anticipation of need for major surgical procedure during the course of the study -New York Heart Association Class II or greater congestive heart failure.LVEF by MUGA or ultrasound or MRI must be=50% and should be performed within 4 weeks prior to randomization if cardiac failure is suspected. -History of myocardial infarction or unstable angina or unstable arrhythmias within 3 months prior to randomization -History of autoimmune disease,including but not limited to myasthenia gravis,myositis,autoimmune hepatitis,systemic lupus erythematosus,rheumatoid arthritis,inflammatory bowel disease,vascular thrombosis associated with antiphospholipid syndrome,Wegener’s granulomatosis,Sjögren’s syndrome,Guillain-Barré syndrome,multiple sclerosis,vasculitis,or glomerulonephritis Patients with a history of autoimmune-related hypothyroidism on a stable dose of thyroid replacement hormone may be eligible for this study -Prior allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplantation -History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, drug-induced pneumonitis, organizing pneumonia, or evidence of active pneumonitis on screeni
