Official title

Optimizing Neoadjuvant Therapy for HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Based on Dynamic Efficacy Monitoring: A Trial of Trastuzumab Plus Pyrotinib and Albumin-Bound Paclitaxel Followed by SHR-A1811 Plus Pertuzumab（OnThePath Trial）

Overview

This study aims to optimize neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer by implementing a dynamic monitoring-guided treatment strategy. Patients will initially receive trastuzumab, pyrotinib, and albumin-bound paclitaxel. Those who do not achieve a radiological response after Cycle 2 will switch to SHR-A1811 (a HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate) combined with pertuzumab. The primary objective is to evaluate whether this sequential treatment strategy improves the pathological complete response (pCR) rate while maintaining safety. The study will also explore the value of dynamic efficacy monitoring in guiding treatment adjustments and assess the safety and tolerability of the regimens.

Interventions

• Drug Patients will initially receive trastuzumab, pyrotinib, and albumin-bound paclitaxel. Those who do not achieve a radiological response after Cycle 2 will switch to SHR-A1811 (a HER2-targeted antibody
  Drug: SHR-A1811 Drug: Pertuzumab
• Drug Patients will initially receive trastuzumab, pyrotinib, and nab-paclitaxel. Those who achieve a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) after cycle 2 will continue on the same regimen.

Exclusion criteria

• The patient has a second primary malignant tumor, except for fully treated skin cancer.
• The patient had undergone major surgical procedures unrelated to breast cancer within 4 weeks before enrollment, or the patient has not fully recovered from such surgical procedures.
• The presence of uncontrolled cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, including (but not limited to) any of the following within the 6 months prior to the first dose: congestive heart failure (NYHA III or IV), myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction, pulmonary embolism, unstable angina, or arrhythmia requiring treatment at the time of screening; 5.Primary cardiomyopathy (e.g., dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, restricted cardiomyopathy, undefined cardiomyopathy); A clinically significant history of prolonged QTc, grade II type II atrioventricular block or grade III atrioventricular block or QTc interphase (F method) > 470 msec (female); Atrial fibrillation (EHRA grade ≥2b); Unmanageable hypertension, which the investigators judged unsuitable for study participation.
