Trial summary

Locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) is defined as breast cancer (BC) larger than 5 centimeters or with lymph node metastasis. Usually, LABC is treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by curative surgery to reduce tumor size and eliminate micrometastasis. Response to NAC helps predict BC prognosis.

About this study

Official title: Genetic Characteristics of HER2 Positive Breast Cancer Receiving Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy With Docetaxel, Carboplatin, Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab (TCHP) Regimen

Locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) is defined as breast cancer (BC) larger than 5 centimeters or with lymph node metastasis. Usually, LABC is treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by curative surgery to reduce tumor size and eliminate micrometastasis. Response to NAC helps predict BC prognosis. Pathologic complete response (pCR), defined as no residual tumor cells after NAC, represents prolonged survival without BC recurrence and residual cancer burden score, based on residual tumor volume, and can more accurately predict BC outcomes. Especially, Human epidermal growth factor receptoor type 2(HER2)-positive breast cancer, having aggressive biologic characteristics, was mostly treated by NAC because of recent advance of highly effective targeted agents (pertuzumab and trastuzumab). However, still 30-40% of HER2-positive breast cancer did not response to NAC and underwent disease recurrence. Recently, genetic studies to find biomarker of BC prognosis have been widely performed. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), which is circulating free DNA in the blood that originates from cancers, can be detected by recently-developed technologies. CtDNA could facilitate early disease detection, diagnosis and detection of disease recurrence. CtDNA also provides a genomic profile of BC and predicts drug response. In BC, ctDNA correlates with tumor burden and provides early detection of treatment response and tumor genetic alterations.

In this study, the investigator aimed to identify the correlations in genomic profile between tumors and ctDNA during NAC(docetaxel /carboplatin /trastuzumab and pertuzumab) in HER2 positive breast cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HER2-positive Breast Cancer and Chemotherapy Effect, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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 19 Feb 2020. 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 South Korea. 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?

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?

pathologic complete response (time frame: Pathologic Clinical response is performed after end of cycle 6 (each cycle is 21 days)). 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 19 Feb 2020.
