NCT02656589

Brief Summary

This projective observational study is planned to enroll more than 300 advanced breast cancer patients, who were proved as Her-2 positive using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and / or immunohistochemistry, and 100 healthy donors as control. Before treatment, the plasma microRNA will be collected and detected by microRNA extraction kit and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), respectively. After analyzed their microRNA expression by microRNA predictive model, previously reported by our team, all of enrolled patients will be classified as "probable sensitive group" or "probable resistant group". Herceptin combined with other chemotherapy will be the backbone of salvage treatment and used for at least 3 months; the change of local masses and metastasis lesions after treatment will be documented to evaluate the response. Based on these results, investigator aim to construct a mathematical predictive model by analyzing the correlation of baseline microRNA expression level and the prognosis of patients. And a diagnosis microRNA kit will be planned and manufactured

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Progress-free survival of patients

    progression free survival (PFS) was defined as the interval from the diagnosis of advanced breast cancer with HER2 positive to disease progression, relapse, death due to any causes or last follow-up.The follow-up interval is 2 years.

  • overall survival of patients

    Overall survival was defined as the interval from the diagnosis of advanced breast cancer with HER2 positive to death due to any causes or last follow-up,The follow-up interval is 2 years.

Study Arms (2)

Herceptin probable sensitive group

Plasma microRNAs will be collected using microRNA extraction kit according to manufacturer's instructions; and their expression levels are analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).According to microRNAs - herceptin predictive model(reported by our team), the patients will be considered as Herceptin probable sensitive group

Drug: CapecitabineDrug: Trastuzumab

Herceptin probable resistant group

Plasma microRNAs will be collected using microRNA extraction kit according to manufacturer's instructions; and their expression levels are analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).According to microRNAs - herceptin predictive model(reported by our team), the patients will be considered as Herceptin probable resistant group

Drug: CapecitabineDrug: Trastuzumab

Interventions

Capecitabine will be administered orally at a dose of 2500mg/m2 daily for 3 months (Day 1 to 14 of a 21-day cycle)

Also known as: Xeloda
Herceptin probable resistant groupHerceptin probable sensitive group

patients will receive herceptin intravenous infusion at a dose of 6mg on day 1 of each cycle

Also known as: Herceptin
Herceptin probable resistant groupHerceptin probable sensitive group
