What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pathological complete response (pCR)

    14 weeks after start of therapy treatment, tumor and lymph node biopsy is performed to reach the primary endpoint of pathological complete response (pCR) which is defined as the absence of residual invasive cancer of the complete resected breast specimen and all sampled regional lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy (ypT0/is ypN0 in the current AJCC staging system). As secondary endpoint, also other response states will be taken into account: no invasive tumor in the complete resected breast specimen irrespective of the lymph node state following completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy (ypT0/is, any ypN).

    Measured: 14 weeks after start of therapy treatment

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Health-related quality of life using EORTC QBL-BR-23 scale

    Assessment of quality of life questions during the past week or during the past 4 weeks (depending on the questions) are measured on a 4 level-scale: 1 (not at all); 2 (a little); 3 (quite a bit); 4 (very much)

    Measured: During the neoadjuvant treatment phase at baseline (week 1) and at week 13. In the adjuvant therapy phase, every 3 month, up to 12 months (from date of randomization) or date of drop out, whatever comes first

  2. Health-related quality of life using EQ5D-5L scale

    • questions about "self care", "usual activities", "pain /discomfort", anxiety/depression" are assessed on a 5 level-scale using tick boxes : "I have no problem"; "I have slight problems"; "I have moderate problems"; "I have severe problems" "I am unable"
    • assessment of the patient health (good or bad) is measured on a scale numbered from 0 to 100 (100 means the best heath and 0 means the worst)

    Measured: During the neoadjuvant treatment phase at baseline (week 1) and at week 13. In the adjuvant therapy phase, every 3 month, up to 12 months (from date of randomization) or date of drop out, whatever comes first

  3. Health-related quality of life using EORTC QLQ-C30 scale

    • Assessment of quality of life questions (activities, breath, pain, sleep, appetite, vomiting, constipation, others..) are measured on a 4 level-scale: 1 (not at all); 2 (a little); 3 (quite a bit); 4 (very much)
    • Assessment of Overall health and overall quality of life during the past week is measured on a 7 level-scale going from 1 (very poor) to 7 (excellent)

    Measured: During the neoadjuvant treatment phase at baseline (week 1) and at week 13. In the adjuvant therapy phase, every 3 month, up to 12 months (from date of randomization) or date of drop out, whatever comes first

  4. Tumor size reduction by mammography

    The diameters of the tumors in the breast will be measured in millimeter by mammography as part of clinical response measure. The tumor size measurement 13 weeks after start of therapy is also used to reach a secondary endpoint: near pCR, defined as tumor sized ypT1a/is, any ypN with tumor size.

    Measured: at screening visit and 12 weeks after start of therapy treatment

  5. Tumor size reduction by palpation and ultrasound

    The diameters of the tumors in the breast will be measured in millimeter by palpation and ultrasound as part of clinical response measure. The tumor size measurement 13 weeks after start of therapy is also used to reach a secondary endpoint: near pCR, defined as tumor sized ypT1a/is, any ypN with tumor size.

    Measured: at screening visit and 4, 7 and 13 weeks after start of therapy treatment

  6. Overall survival

    The overall survival is defined as time (days) between study treatment allocation and death of patient due to any cause.

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 60 months

  7. Duration of invasive disease-free survival

    Duration of invasive disease-free survival is defined as time (days) between study treatment allocation and relapse, secondary tumor event or death.

    Measured: From date of treatment allocation until the date of first documented progression or secondary tumor or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 60 months (study duration including follow up)

  8. Number of mastectomies

    The number of mastectomies will be determined at time of surgery (week 14 and week 18)

    Measured: 14 weeks after start of therapy treatment

  9. Ki67 level

    The level of Ki67 in biopsie material will be measured at week 4 of neoadjuvant therapy

    Measured: 4 weeks after start of therapy treatment

  10. cDNA composition

    The composition of cDNA in blood samples will be measured

    Measured: at baseline, 3 weeks, 4 weeks and 6, 18, 24, 36 48 and 60 months after start of therapy treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Perjeta Injectable Product, Herceptin and Tamoxifen in people with Breast Neoplasms, run by Palleos Healthcare GmbH at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 20 inclusion and 27 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathological complete response (pCR) (time frame: 14 weeks after start of therapy treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03272477, which also lists 55 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Apr 2024.
