About this study
This multicenter, prospective phase II clinical trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of sequential Trastuzumab rezetecan followed by dalpiciclib plus endocrine therapy (fulvestrant or aromatase inhibitors) in 45 patients with HR+/HER2-low/ultra-low advanced breast cancer. Enrolled patients will receive Trastuzumab rezetecan monotherapy for 6-8 cycles until clinical benefit, then transition to CDK4/6 inhibitors with endocrine therapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS), with secondary endpoints including objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). The study will be conducted at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital and collaborating centers.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression-free survival (PFS)
Progression-free survival rate at 2 years, calculated from the date of randomization to the first documented disease progression (per RECIST 1.1) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first
Measured: 2-year PFS
Secondary outcomes (6)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
The proportion of patients achieving ≥30% reduction in tumor volume (sum of complete response [CR] and partial response [PR] rates) during the 2-year follow-up period, assessed from enrollment. The primary endpoint is the percentage of patients with ≥30% tumor shrinkage, as evaluated by investigators per RECIST 1.1 criteria
Measured: ORR (CR+PR rate per RECIST 1.1) with ≥30% tumor reduction at 2 years post-enrollment, assessed by investigators
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)
The proportion of patients achieving either ≥30% tumor reduction or maintaining stable disease (SD) for ≥24 weeks during the 2-year follow-up period (sum of complete response [CR], partial response [PR], and SD lasting ≥24 weeks), as assessed by investigators according to RECIST 1.1 criteria
Measured: CBR (CR+PR+SD≥24 weeks rate per RECIST 1.1) at 2 years post-enrollment, assessed by investigators.
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
The proportion of patients achieving tumor stabilization or reduction (sum of complete response [CR], partial response [PR], and stable disease [SD] rates) during the 2-year follow-up period from enrollment, as assessed by investigators per RECIST 1.1 criteria
Measured: DCR (CR+PR+SD rate per RECIST 1.1) at 2 years post-enrollment (investigator-assessed)
Overall Survival (OS)
The time from enrollment to death from any cause during the 2-year follow-up period, with the primary endpoint being the duration from randomization to death event
Measured: OS (time from enrollment to death) at 2-year follow-up (primary endpoint)
Treatment-Related Adverse Events (TRAEs)
All adverse events (AEs) occurring from enrollment until treatment discontinuation during the 2-year follow-up period, including their type, incidence rate, severity grade (assessed per NCI-CTCAE v5.0 criteria), seriousness, and relationship to the study treatment.
Measured: TRAEs (all AEs from first dose to 30 days post-treatment) graded by CTCAE v5.0, with causality assessment
Quality of Life (QoL)
Assessed using the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire at baseline (enrollment), during each efficacy evaluation timepoint, and at treatment discontinuation throughout the 2-year follow-up period
Measured: QoL (EORTC QLQ-C30) evaluated serially from baseline to treatment discontinuation over 2 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Trastuzumab rezetecan + CDK4/6 inhibitors + endocrine therapy in people with Advanced Breast Cancer, 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 14 inclusion and 13 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 31 Dec 2025. 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?
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 JianLi Zhao, PhD (008615920589334, zhaojianli1988@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: 2-year PFS). 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 31 Dec 2025.
