Breast CancerPhase 2NCT07300215
An Exploratory Study on Individualized Neoadjuvant Treatment Regimens for Early HR+/HER2+ Breast Cancer
A Phase 2 study testing individualized neoadjuvant treatment in people with Breast Cancer, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University.
Trial summary
HR+/HER2+ breast cancer belongs to a special type of tumor with dual-channel signal activation. However, in clinical treatment, the preferred approach is usually the inhibition of the HER2 signaling pathway. Therefore, the non-pCR rate after neoadjuvant therapy is relatively high (about 60%).

About this study
HR+/HER2+ breast cancer belongs to a special type of tumor with dual-channel signal activation. However, in clinical treatment, the preferred approach is usually the inhibition of the HER2 signaling pathway. Therefore, the non-pCR rate after neoadjuvant therapy is relatively high (about 60%). To optimize the neoadjuvant treatment strategy for HR+/HER2+ breast cancer, increase the pCR rate of neoadjuvant treatment, and improve the prognosis of patients, our research group intends to conduct a prospective clinical and translational study. By observing the clinical efficacy and changes in biomarkers, individualized treatment for HR+/HER2+ breast cancer will be carried out. Patients who respond well to HER2-targeted therapy will be identified early, and for those without early relief, targeted combined dual-channel inhibition therapy with endocrine treatment will be adopted. The effectiveness and safety of the individualized neoadjuvant treatment strategy for HR+/HER2+ breast cancer patients will be evaluated. In addition, this study aims to focus on the neoadjuvant chemotherapy mechanism of HR+/HER2+ breast cancer, and combine the establishment and validation of effective disease models to provide theoretical basis and experimental support for achieving precise treatment and clinical transformation.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
individualized neoadjuvant treatmentDrug
For HR+/HER2+ breast cancer patients treated with TCbHP, after 2 cycles of treatment, they were classified according to the therapeutic effect into the effective group and the group without early response. The effective group continued to receive TCbHP treatment for another 4 cycles, while the group without early response changed to the neoadjuvant treatment regimen of trastuzumab dual-target combined with exemestane and palbociclib for 4 cycles.
Evaluation methods:
Early non-response is defined as the results of the examination after the end of the 2nd cycle of treatment meeting any of the following criteria:
- MRI, ultrasound: PD/SD of lymph nodes or primary lesion, PR but tumor regression < 50%;
- Histological pathological examination:Changes in immunohistochemical molecular typing;The decrease in Ki-67 compared to the baseline is less than 20%;PIK3CA mutation.

Measured: From the time of enrollment to one month after the surgery
Secondary outcomes (5)
bpCR,breast physiological complex response
After the primary tumor was removed, microscopic examination of the breast revealed no invasive tumor cells (ypT0/is)
Measured: From the time of enrollment to one month after the surgery
EFS,Event-free survival
The time from the start of medication to the occurrence of any of the following events for the first time: disease progression making surgical treatment impossible, local or distant recurrence, death due to any cause, etc.
Measured: baseline,1year,up to 2year
ORR,Objective Response Rate
The proportion of patients whose tumor volume has decreased by 30% and has remained stable for more than four weeks is referred to as the sum of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR).
Measured: 6-12 months
OS,Overall Survival
Refers to the period from the start of medication use until death occurs due to any cause.
Measured: baseline,1year,up to 2year
adverse event
Collect all adverse events that occurred in all subjects from the signing of the informed consent to 28 days after the cessation of medication, including clinical symptoms and abnormal vital signs, as well as abnormalities in laboratory tests.

A Phase 2 study testing individualized neoadjuvant treatment in people with Breast Cancer, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University.
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 8 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
