NCT00545688

Brief Summary

This 4 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 4 neoadjuvant treatment regimens in female patients with locally advanced, inflammatory or early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. Before surgery, patients will be randomized to one of 4 treatment arms, to receive 4 cycles of a)Herceptin + docetaxel b)Herceptin + docetaxel + pertuzumab c)Herceptin + pertuzumab or 4)pertuzumab + docetaxel. Pertuzumab will be administered at a loading dose of 840mg iv, then 420mg iv 3-weekly, Herceptin at a loading dose of 8mg/kg iv then 6mg/kg 3-weekly, and docetaxel at a dose of 75mg/m2 escalating to 100mg/m2 3-weekly. During the entire pre- and post-surgery period all patients will receive adequate chemotherapy as per standard of care, as well as any surgery and/or radiotherapy as required. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Pathological Complete Response (pCR)

    pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders

    Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Breast Cancer Type

    pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Based on the type of breast cancer participants were categorized as those with 1. Operable breast cancer, 2. Inflammatory breast cancer and 3. Locally advanced breast cancer. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.

    Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Hormone Receptor Status

    pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Participants were classified as Estrogen and/or Progesterone positive (+ve), Estrogen and/or Progesterone negative (-ve) or receptor status unknown. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.

    Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Lymph Node Status

    pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Lymph node status was defined as either negative lymph node at surgery or positive lymph node at surgery. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.

    Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving pCR by Presence or Absence of Residual Intraductal Carcinoma (DCIS) / Intalobular Carcinoma (LCIS)

    pCR was defined as an absence of invasive neoplastic cells at microscopic examination of the tumor remnants after surgery following primary systemic therapy. Participants with invalid/missing pCR assessments were defined as non-responders.

    Approximately 4 months from randomization following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 2 weeks after Cycle 4)

Secondary Outcomes (11)

    Baseline up to Cycle 4 (assessed at, Baseline and Day 1 of Cycles 1-4 Pre-Surgery) Up to approximately 24 months

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Best Overall Response (CR, PR, SD or PD) During Neo-Adjuvant Period by X-Ray/Mammography

    Baseline up to Cycle 4 (assessed at Baseline, Day 1 of Cycles 1-4 Pre-Surgery) Up to approximately 24 months

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Best Primary Breast Tumor Response (CR, PR, SD or PD) During Neo-Adjuvant Period by Clinical Examination

    Baseline up to Cycle 4 (assessed at Baseline, Day 1 of Cycles 1-4 Pre-Surgery) Up to approximately 24 months

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Best Overall Response (CR, PR, SD or PD) During the Neo-Adjuvant Period by Clinical Examination

    Baseline up to Cycle 4 (assessed at Baseline, Day 1 of Cycles 1-4 Pre-Surgery) Up to approximately 24 months

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Response During Neo-Adjuvant Period by X-Ray/Mammography

    Baseline up to Cycle 4 (assessed at Baseline, Day 1 of Cycles 1-4 Pre-Surgery) Up to approximately 24 months
