Brief Summary
This study (also known as IMpassion050) will evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab compared with placebo when given in combination with neoadjuvant dose-dense anthracycline (doxorubicin) + cyclophosphamide followed by paclitaxel + trastuzumab + pertuzumab (ddAC-PacHP) in patients with early HER2-positive breast cancer (T2-4, N1-3, M0).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Percentage of Participants With Pathological Complete Response (pCR) in the PD-L1-Positive Population (IC 1/2/3)
pCR is defined as the absence of residual invasive cancer on hematoxylin and eosin evaluation of the complete resected breast specimen and all sampled regional lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST) (i.e., ypT0/is ypN0 in the current American Joint Committee on Cancer \[AJCC\] staging system, 8th edition). Treatment comparison was made using Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test stratified by disease stage (T2 vs. T3-4) and hormone receptor status (estrogen receptor (ER) positive and/or progesterone receptor (PgR) positive vs. ER negative and PgR negative).
From randomization to approximately 6 months
pCR in the ITT Population
pCR is defined as the absence of residual invasive cancer on hematoxylin and eosin evaluation of the complete resected breast specimen and all sampled regional lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST) (i.e., ypT0/is ypN0 in the current American Joint Committee on Cancer \[AJCC\] staging system, 8th edition). Treatment comparison was made using Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test stratified by disease stage (T2 vs. T3-4) and hormone receptor status (ER positive and/or PgR positive vs. ER negative and PgR negative).
From randomization to approximately 6 months
Secondary Outcomes (21)
Percentage of Participants With pCR Based on Hormone Receptor Status
From randomization to approximately 24 months
Percentage of Participants With pCR in the PD-L1-Negative Population
From randomization to approximately 24 months
Event-Free Survival (EFS)
From randomization to first documented disease recurrence, unequivocal tumor progression determined by the treating investigator, or death from any cause (up to approximately 54 months)
Disease-Free Survival (DFS)
Time from surgery to first documented disease recurrence or death from any cause (up to approximately 54 months)
Overall Survival (OS)
From randomization to date of death from any cause (up to approximately 54 months)

Study Arms (2)
Atezolizumab +ddAC-PacHP
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive atezolizumab (atezo) 840 mg IV Q2W for 4 cycles during neoadjuvant phase with ddAC (doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 \& cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 IV), followed by atezo 1200 mg IV Q3W for 4 cycles with paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 IV weekly for 12 continuous weeks, trastuzumab 6 mg/kg IV (with initial 8mg/kg IV loading dose) Q3W for 4 cycles, \& pertuzumab 420 mg IV (with initial 840-mg IV loading dose) Q3W for 4 cycles. During adjuvant phase, participants will continue to receive following study treatments Q3W to complete up to 1 year HER2-target therapy inclusive of therapy given both in neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting: atezo 1200 mg IV Q3W, trastuzumab 6 mg/kg IV (with initial 8-mg/kg IV loading dose) Q3W, \& pertuzumab 420 mg IV (with initial 840-mg IV loading dose) Q3W. Participants who do not achieve pCR have option of receiving blinded atezo+trastuzumab emtansine post surgery for 14 cycles. In response to USM DIL dated 3 Feb 2021 treatment with atezo must be discontinued.
Placebo + ddAC-PacHP
PLACEBO COMPARATORParticipants will receive placebo 840 mg IV Q2W for 4 cycles during neoadjuvant phase with ddAC (doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 \& cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 IV), followed by placebo 1200 mg IV Q3W for 4 cycles with paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 IV weekly for 12 continuous weeks, trastuzumab 6 mg/kg IV (with initial 8-mg/kg IV loading dose) Q3W for 4 cycles \& pertuzumab 420 mg IV (with initial 840-mg IV loading dose) Q3W for 4 cycles. During adjuvant phase, participants will continue to receive following study treatments Q3W to complete up to 1 year HER2-target therapy inclusive of therapy given both in neoadjuvant \& adjuvant setting: placebo 1200 mg IV Q3W, trastuzumab 6 mg/kg IV (with initial 8-mg/kg IV loading dose) Q3W, \& pertuzumab 420 mg IV (with initial 840-mg IV loading dose) Q3W. Participants who do not achieve pCR have option of receiving blinded atezolizumab + trastuzumab emtansine post surgery for 14 cycles. In response to USM DIL, dated 3 Feb 2021 treatment with placebo must be discontinued.
