About this study

Official title: An Observational Phase II Trial of Targeted Next Generation Sequencing Analysis for the Efficacy of Trastuzumab Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With HER2 Positive Breast Cancer

To explore the genetic background of patients with HER2 positive breast cancer that benefit from trastuzumab combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, identify clinically actionable mutations that associated with trastuzumab resistance or drug efficacy, we designed this Observational phase II trial. The primary endpoint is genetic profile of HER2+ breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab combined neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Secondary endpoints included pathological complete response (pCR) rate and safety.

Read the detailed description

Currently, patients with stage II-III breast cancer still accounts for a large population in China, and neoadjuvant therapy is considered the standard treatment for them. The pathological complete response (pCR) rate takes for an indicator for regimens efficacy, and the achievement of pCR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is associated with favorable outcomes including disease-free survival and overall survival.

HER2+ breast cancer represents an invasive and poor prognosis subtype, and the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy for these patients has been greatly augmented by the addition of trastuzumab. However, more than 50% of HER2+ breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab combined neoadjuvant chemotherapy cannot achieve pCR, even experience primary drug resistance and rapid disease progression. Therefore, to explore the genomic features of the population that benefited from trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy is of great significance for personalized treatment of HER2+ breast cancer, aiming to avoid overtreatment and identify clinically actionable mutations for future therapy instructions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Trastuzumab+TPDrug

    Also called Trastuzumab+Docetaxel+Carboplatin

    Trastuzumab (4 mg/kg loading dose, then 2 mg/kg I.V., every week, totally 17 weeks (6 cycles)) combined with TC neoadjuvant chemotherapy (Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 I.V., day 1, Carboplatin 400 mg/kg, I.V., day 2, every 3 weeks, totally 6 cycles).

Study groups in NCT03728829
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Trastuzumab+TP neoadjuvant chemotherapy100 cases of patients with stage II-III HER2+ breast cancer will be assigned participants to neoadjuvant treatment regimen, including Trastuzumab combined with Docetaxel and Carboplatin. 5-10 ml peripheral blood will be collected from each patient and formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) blocks/sections or fresh tumor tissues/biopsies will be obtained from the hospitals before and after neoadjuvant therapy. The genomic characteristics between patients achieved pCR and non-pCR will be analyzed. The clinically actionable mutations for future therapy instructions will be identified.
Receives: Drug: Trastuzumab+TP

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Observational and Prospective, run by Hebei Medical University Fourth Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2021. 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 China. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yunjiang Liu, MD, PhD (+86-311-8609-5588, lyj818326@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

genetic profile sequenced by a pan-cancer gene panel (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 9 Jul 2021.
