NCT07844018

Brief Summary

This study adopts a single-center, open-label, single-arm interventional design. It will enroll 88 patients with histologically confirmed HER2-positive early breast cancer who are suitable for surgery and neoadjuvant therapy, and stratify them by HER2 homogeneity/heterogeneity based on histological analysis. Subjects are not randomized and all will enter the intervention arm; patients with different HER2 homogeneity/heterogeneity will receive regimens based on anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Recruitment is planned to commence in January 2027 and complete enrollment by December 2028. After obtaining fully informed consent and meeting eligibility criteria, eligible subjects will enter the trial phase and receive a regimen based on anti-HER2 ADCs. Once enrolled, subjects must receive the investigational drug within 72 hours. Each treatment cycle lasts 3 weeks, for a total of 8 cycles, and treatment will continue until the end of the course or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, withdrawal of informed consent, loss to follow-up, study completion, or study termination.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • pathology complete response rate

    After completing neoadjuvant therapy, histopathological evaluation of hematoxylin and eosin (H\&E)-stained samples from the resected breast cancer tissue and all ipsilateral lymph node specimens shows no residual invasive carcinoma.

    From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • bpCR

    From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

  • ORR

    From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

  • RCB

    From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

Study Arms (1)

HER2-expression-based ADC therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

Based on HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) results, HER2 homogeneity/heterogeneity will be defined. Patients with homogeneous HER2 expression will receive 8 cycles of T-DXd therapy, while patients with heterogeneous HER2 expression will receive sequential T-DXd followed by THP therapy.

Drug: HER2 target therapy

Interventions

Based on HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) results, HER2 homogeneity/heterogeneity will be defined. Patients with homogeneous HER2 expression will receive 8 cycles of T-DXd therapy, while patients with heterogeneous HER2 expression will receive sequential T-DXd followed by THP therapy.

You may not qualify if:

  • bilateral breast cancer or presenting as recurrent or metastatic disease 2.Within the preceding 5 years prior to written informed consent, any history of malignant neoplasm other than treated cervical in situ carcinoma, skin basal cell carcinoma, or skin squamous cell carcinoma will exclude the subject 3.Within 4 weeks prior to enrollment, subjects who have undergone major surgery unrelated to breast cancer, or who have not fully recovered from such surgery, are excluded; procedures necessary for diagnostic tissue biopsy or peripheral venous catheter placement are allowed 4.History of interstitial lung disease (ILD) or non-infectious pneumonia, or current active ILD/pneumonia, or radiologic findings during screening that cannot exclude suspected ILD/pneumonia 5.Presence of significant cardiac disease or other conditions that would make participation unsafe or unsuitable 6.Severe infection within 4 weeks prior to the first dose 7.Known HIV infection or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS); active hepatitis B (HBV-DNA ≥ 500 IU/mL) or hepatitis C (HCV-RNA above the assay's lower limit) or co-infection with HBV and HCV; autoimmune hepatitis 8.Known hypersensitivity to the study drug or any of its excipients 9.Pregnant or lactating women; women of childbearing potential with a positive baseline pregnancy test; or women unwilling to use an effective contraception method throughout the study 10.History of definite neurologic or psychiatric disorders including epilepsy or dementia, or known history of psychiatric drug abuse, alcoholism, or substance misuse 11.Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make participation unsuitable for this study.
