NCT05673629

Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Utidelone plus AC versus Docetaxel plus AC as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in high-risk HER2-negative early-stage or locally advanced breast cancer. In this phase III, multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled study, 552 subjects will be enrolled and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the Utidelone plus AC group or the docetaxel plus AC group, stratified by hormone receptor status (ER and/or PgR positive vs ER and PgR negative).

Study Arms (2)

The treatment group-Utidelone in combination with AC

EXPERIMENTAL

Utidelone Injection at 30 mg/m2/d administered on days 1-5 of each cycle. Doxorubicin Injection at 50mg/m2 and Cyclophosphamide Injection at 500 mg/m2 administered once daily on day 1 of each cycle. One treatment cycle has 21 days, and there are 6 cycles in total.

Drug: Utidelone Injection in combination with AC

The control group-Docetaxel in combination with AC

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Docetaxel Injection at 75 mg/m2, Doxorubicin Injection at 50 mg/m2, and Cyclophosphamide Injection at 500mg/m2, administered on day 1 of each cycle. One cycle has 21 days, and there are 6 cycles in total.

Drug: Docetaxel Injection in combination with AC

Interventions

The treatment group will be treated with Utidelone Injection at 30 mg/m2/d administered intravenously once daily on days 1-5 of each cycle, and Doxorubicin Injection at 50mg/m2 and Cyclophosphamide Injection at 500 mg/m2, administered intravenously respectively once daily on day 1 of each cycle. One treatment cycle has 21 days, and there are 6 cycles in total. After the neoadjuvant therapy, all patients suitable for surgery will have the operation, and they will be evaluated pre-operatively for clinical remission according to RECIST 1.1. For patients unsuitable for surgery, they will receive other treatments according to the clinical practice at each site. Safety evaluation will be performed 28 days after the last dose, and patients will be followed up for at least 3 years for disease recurrence.

One cycle has 21 days, and there are 6 cycles in total.

  • Patients who receive any sex hormone therapy (e.g., birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy, etc.), or any hormonal drug (e.g., raloxifene, tamoxifen, or other selective estrogen receptor modulators) for osteoporosis or breast cancer prevention.
  • Patients received major surgical operation unrelated to breast cancer within 4 weeks prior to randomization or having not yet fully recovered.
  • Patients with symptomatic peripheral neuropathy with CTCAE 5.0 grade ≥ 2.
  • Patients with severe cardiovascular diseases, including but not limited to:
  • A. history of congestive heart failure or systolic dysfunction (LVEF \< 50%).
  • B. angina requiring anti-anginal medication.
  • C. high-risk uncontrolled arrhythmias or severe conduction abnormalities, such as ventricular arrhythmias requiring clinical intervention, second- to third-degree atrioventricular block, etc.; mean QTcF \>470ms in 3 12-lead ECGs tests at rest.
  • D. clinically significant heart valve disease with impaired cardiac function.
