NCT05444647

Brief Summary

In this study the characteristics and alterations of the gut microbiome during neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer patients are studied, as well as the relation between the gut microbiome and probability of pCR.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pathologic complete response in the breast and lymph nodes (ypT0/Tis ypN0)

    The primary objective of this study is to determine if the probability of pCR (pathologic complete response) in HER2-positive breast cancer patients treated with standard of care neoadjuvant therapy is correlated with variability in the composition of intestinal microbiota and subsequent short-term alterations in that composition.

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Correlations between Pathologic complete Response

    2 years

  • Side effects

    2 years

Study Arms (1)

HER2-positive

patients with newly diagnosed early stage HER2-positive breast cancer with an indication for standard trastuzumab-containing neoadjuvant treatment.

Procedure: stool and blood collection

Interventions

Patients will collect fecal and blood samples prior to treatment and at the time of response evaluation, and completion of therapy using a standard stool-collection-kit. At the day of stool sampling, patients fill out a brief questionnaire about established factors that can change the microbiome such concurrent use of antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors.

Study Population

early stage HER2-positive breast cancer patients

You may qualify if:

  • Female, presenting for the first time with operable breast cancer, who had not received any previous treatment for an invasive malignancy.
  • Primary tumor greater than (\>) 2 cm in diameter.
  • Age ≥ 18 years and \< 70 years.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status less than or equal to (\</=) 1.
  • Baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) greater than or equal to (\>/=) 55%
  • Availability of tumor tissue specimen after surgery.
  • Histologically proven diagnosis of breast cancer.
  • Patients have HER2-positive disease. HER2-positive disease was defined as follows: disease which overexpresses HER-2 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) 3+ and/or has HER2 amplification according to fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).
  • Had hormonal receptors (ER and PgR) assessed.
  • Signed informed consent.
  • Able to comply with the protocol.

You may not qualify if:

  • prior ipsilateral breast surgery, ipsilateral radiotherapy, hormonal therapy or systemic chemotherapy
  • Prolonged antibiotic treatment \> 10 days within 1 month of neoadjuvant chemotherapy as prevention or suppression of an ongoing infection
  • Uncontrolled inflammatory bowel disease
  • pregnant
