Official title
A Prospective and Multicenter Clinical Study to Identify the Molecular Characterization and Subtypes in Patients With HER2-positive Breast Cancer Receiving Neoadjuvant Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab.
Overview
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant trastuzumab, pertuzumab and chemotherapy chosen by the investigators and identify the molecular characterization and subtypes in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer.
Interventions
- Drug Trastuzumab
Trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose, followed by 6 mg/kg every 3 weeks) - Drug Pertuzumab
Pertuzumab (loading dose 840 mg, followed by 420 mg every 3 weeks) - Drug Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy chosen by the investigators. - Procedure Excision of tumor/mastectomy
Definitive breast cancer surgery (excision or mastectomy) marks the end of protocol mandated therapy.
Primary outcome measures
- Total pathological complete response (tpCR) rate [Time frame: At surgery]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Time frame: Before surgery]
- Breast pathological complete response (bPCR) rate [Time frame: At surgery]
- Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) [Time frame: Assessed every 2 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy prior to surgery, up to approximately 30 days after the last neoadjuvant treatment.]
- Identification of HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Molecular Characterization and Subtypes. [Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years from study enrollment]
