Official title

A Prospective, Randomized Controlled, Multicenter Phase II Clinical Study of Toripalimab Combined With PCb-EC Regimen (Albumin Paclitaxel + Carboplatin Followed by Epirubicin + Cyclophosphamide) or PCb Regimen (Albumin Paclitaxel + Carboplatin) as Neoadjuvant Therapy for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Overview

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a PD-1 inhibitor combined with different chemotherapy regimens (PCb-EC and PCb), in order to develop a superior and well-tolerated neoadjuvant therapeutic strategy for patients with triple-negative breast cancer.

Interventions

  • Drug Toripalimab
    Toripalimab 240mg every cycle
  • Drug PCb-EC
    Albumin Paclitaxel + Carboplatin\*4 Followed by Epirubicin + Cyclophosphamide\*4
  • Drug PCb
    Albumin Paclitaxel + Carboplatin \*6

Primary outcome measures

  • Pathologic complete response (pCR) rates [Time frame: Up to 180 days]
Secondary outcome measures (7)
  • Objective response rate(ORR) [Time frame: up to 180 days]
  • Event-free survival (EFS) [Time frame: up to 5 years]
  • Invasive Disease-Free Survival (IDFS) [Time frame: up to 5 years]
  • Overall Survival (OS) [Time frame: up to 5 years]
  • Adverse events [Time frame: up to 18 months]
  • EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire [Time frame: up to 18 months]
  • EORTC QLQ-BR23 questionnaire [Time frame: up to 18 months]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Age: 18-70 years.
  • Disease Status: Clinical pathological confirmation of cT2-cT4d, or cT1c with axillary lymph node metastasis.
  • Pathology: Histopathologically confirmed triple-negative, invasive breast carcinoma.
  • Definition of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer:
  • ER and PR negative (IHC nuclear staining <10%).
  • Her-2 negative (IHC 0 or 1+ without FISH, or IHC 2+ with FISH demonstrating no amplification).
  • Measurable Disease: Presence of clinically measurable lesion(s) confirmed by ultrasound, mammography, or optional MRI within 1 month prior to randomization.
  • Adequate Organ and Bone Marrow Function (within 1 month prior to chemotherapy), indicating no contraindications for chemotherapy:
  • Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L
  • Hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 90 g/L
  • Platelet count (PLT) ≥ 100 × 10⁹/L
  • Total Bilirubin (TBIL) < 1.5 × ULN (Upper Limit of Normal)
  • Serum Creatinine (Cr) < 1.5 × ULN
  • Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) / Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) < 1.5 × ULN
  • Cardiac Function: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% as measured by echocardiogram.
  • Pregnancy Status: For women of childbearing potential, a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to randomization.
  • Performance Status: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of ≤ 1.
  • Informed Consent: Signed informed consent obtained.

Exclusion criteria

  • Metastatic Disease: Evidence of metastatic breast cancer. (To exclude metastasis, CT scans of the chest and abdomen, and a bone scan must be performed at any time point from diagnosis to randomization; PET/CT may serve as an alternative imaging modality).
  • Prior Anti-Cancer Therapy: Any prior chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, or radiotherapy for the current breast cancer.
  • Second Primary Malignancy: Presence of a second primary malignancy, except for:
  • Adequately treated non-melanoma skin carcinoma.
  • Prior Immunotherapy: Previous treatment with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent, or any other immunomodulatory therapy.
  • Immunodeficiency or Autoimmune Disease: Diagnosed immunodeficiency or active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment.
  • Severe Comorbidities: Severe or uncontrolled pulmonary or cardiac disease.
  • Active Hepatitis: Active Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C infection.
  • Transplantation History: History of solid organ or bone marrow transplantation.
  • Pregnancy/Lactation: Pregnant or lactating women.
  • Other Medical Conditions: Any other severe, uncontrolled medical condition that, in the investigator's judgment, constitutes a contraindication to chemotherapy.
