Trial summary

Patients with breast cancer meet criteria for enrollment are randomized into PTC group or control group. The neoadjuvant therapy regimens are guided by PTC test in the PTC group. The regimens in control group are included of (dd)EC-T for HER2 negative subtype, TCH(P) or EC-TH(P) for HER2 positive subtype. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Neoadjuvant Therapy for Breast Cancer Based on Patient-derived Tumor-like Cell Clusters Advanced Drug Sensitization Regimens: a Phase II Randomized Controlled Clinical Study

Patients with breast cancer meet criteria for enrollment are randomized into PTC group or control group. The neoadjuvant therapy regimens are guided by PTC test in the PTC group. The regimens in control group are included of (dd)EC-T for HER2 negative subtype, TCH(P) or EC-TH(P) for HER2 positive subtype. We compared the pCR rate between two groups as the primary endpoint.

Read the detailed description
  1. Before neoadjuvant therapy, all samples will be obtained by core needle biopsy for PTC drug sensitivity test.
  2. After obtaining drug sensitivity results and confirming ER/PR and HER2 expression state, all recruited patients will be randomized into the PTC group or the routine treatment group, according to the method of random number table.
  3. Beijing Cornerstone Life Science and Technology Co., Ltd. is responsible for gene sequencing and PTC drug sensitivity test for biological samples. All samples for the study are clinical residuals and will be used in the study, store or destruction is unapplicable.
  4. Neoadjuvant therapy regimen in the PTC group is guided by PTC drug sensitivity results, and regimen in the routine treatment group is based on clinical guideline, such as (dd)EC-T for HER2 negative breast cancer, and TCH(P) or EC-TH(P) for HER2 positive breast cancer. All neoadjuvant therapy will be completed before operation if without PD.
  5. According to postoperative pathological remission, pCR patients in two groups continued to complete adjuvant targeted therapy based on original treatment. For non-pCR patients in the PTC group, PTC drug sensitivity test will be done again to guide adjuvant therapy, for non-pCR patients in the routine treatment group, Capecitabine for HER2 negative breast cancer, and T-DM1 or H(P) will be selected.
  6. All patients will be received radiotherapy or endocrine therapy if necessary.

What participants receive

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

  • patient-derived tumor-like cell clusters drug sensitivity testDiagnostic test

    Also called PTC

    Intervention Description:Neoadjuvant therapy regimen of patients in the PTC group is guided by PTC drug sensitivity results. After operation, adjuvant targeted therapy for pCR patients is based on original treatment, adjuvant targeted therapy for non-pCR patients is based on a secondary PTC drug sensitivity results.

What is being measured

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

  1. pCR rate

    pathological complete response

    Measured: one month after operation

  2. objective response rate

    cCR or PR or SD according to RECIST1.1

    Measured: half year after randomize

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 2y-Disease free survival rate

    survive with neither invasive recurrence nor new invasive diseases

    Measured: 2year

  2. 5y-Disease free survival rate

    survive with neither invasive recurrence nor new invasive diseases

    Measured: 5year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing patient-derived tumor-like cell clusters drug sensitivity test in people with Pathological Conditions, Signs and Symptoms, run by Zhejiang Cancer 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 3 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 27 Dec 2023. 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.

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?

pCR rate (time frame: one month after operation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Dec 2023.
