Who may be able to join

  • Signed informed consent form.

  • Patients with synchronous bilateral invasive disease or multicentric tumors (involving more than one quadrant) are eligible for the study, provided that all discrete lesions are confirmed by the central laboratory as TNBC and TLS-positive. For patients with multifocal tumors (more than one mass involving the same quadrant), sampling must be performed on at least one lesion, confirmed by the central laboratory as TNBC and TLS-positive.
  • For patients with multifocal or multicentric breast cancer, measurement of the largest lesion to determine the T stage is required.
  • Confirmation of TNBC and prospective assessment of TLS presence in tumor tissue before study enrollment, confirmed by HE staining and immunofluorescence staining. TLS positivity is defined as the presence of CD3+ and CD20+ cell aggregates identified by HE staining or immunofluorescence staining on tumor tissue or peritumoral tissue sections.
  • Completion of preoperative systemic chemotherapy and camrelizumab treatment.
  • Pathological assessment after neoadjuvant treatment did not achieve pCR.

  • Completion of neoadjuvant therapy with echocardiography or multi-gated acquisition scan showing left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% during the screening period and an absolute decrease in LVEF compared to pre-chemotherapy LVEF not exceeding 15%. Alternatively, if LVEF assessment was not performed pre-chemotherapy, LVEF must be ≥55% during the screening period post-neoadjuvant therapy.
  • Life expectancy ≥6 months.
  • Adequate hematological and organ function.
  • Negative HIV test result during screening, with the following exceptions: patients with positive HIV test results during screening are eligible to participate in the study, provided they receive stable antiretroviral therapy, have a CD4 count ≥200/µL, undetectable viral load, and no history of AIDS-defining opportunistic infections within 12 months prior to randomization. Investigators should consider potential drug interactions between study treatment and antiretroviral therapy before patient enrollment.

  • Negative hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody test result during screening, or positive HCV antibody test result during screening, followed by negative HCV RNA test result.
  • For women of childbearing potential: agreement to practice abstinence (no heterosexual intercourse) or use contraception, and agreement not to donate eggs.

Who cannot join

  • Stage IV (metastatic) breast cancer
  • Inadequate resection (as described in the inclusion criteria)

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Camrelizumab and Capecitabine Versus Capecitabine as Adjuvant Therapy in Early-stage Triple-negative Breast Cancer Patients With Tertiary Lymphoid Structure in Tumor Who Have Residual Tumor in the Breast or Axillary Lymph Nodes Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy.

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab in combination with capecitabine compared to placebo in combination with capecitabine as adjuvant therapy for patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who have not achieved pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and have tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in the tumor tissue. The primary endpoint of this study is disease-free survival (DFS) to assess the long-term effectiveness of the treatment. Secondary endpoints include invasive disease- free survival (IDFS), overall survival (OS), distant recurrence-free interval (DRFI), as well as safety and patient-reported outcomes. These endpoints will comprehensively evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment and the overall survival status of the patients.

The study anticipates a total sample size of 375 patients, who will be randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the control group. The experimental group will receive 8 cycles of adjuvant therapy of capecitabine and camrelizumab. The control group will receive 8 cycles of adjuvant therapy with capecitabine and placebo. This study aims to investigate whether non-pcr breast cancer patients with TLS in tumors can benefit from the adjuvant immunotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Carrellizumab + Capecitabine in people with Breast Neoplasms, run by Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University 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 21 inclusion and 26 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Shicheng Su (+86 13631304227, sushch@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease-Free Survival (time frame: 3 years). 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 15 Mar 2024.
