- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine how well participants with stage II-III HER2-positive breast cancer respond to pre-operative treatment using one of two different combinations of drugs.
Drugs and Combinations used:
* Paclitaxel, Pertzumab and Margetuximab (Margenza)
* Paclitaxel, Pertzumab and Trastuzumab (Herceptin)
- Detailed Description
This is a randomized open-label phase II trial comparing paclitaxel/margetuximab/pertuzumab (TMP) to paclitaxel/trastuzumab/pertuzumab (THP) in patients with anatomic stage II-III HER2 positive breast cancer.
* The research study procedures include screening for eligibility and study treatment including laboratory evaluations, two mandatory research biopsies and follow up visits.
* Participants will be randomized, which means randomly assigned, to one of two treatment arms. The treatment arms in this study and the names of the study drugs in each arm are:
* Arm A: Paclitaxel, Pertzumab and Margetuximab
* Arm B: Paclitaxel, Pertzumab and Trastuzumab
Participants will receive study treatment for 12 weeks prior to surgery and will be followed for 10 years after surgery. After surgery, some participants will continue to receive the study drug margetuximab for a year in total, if they respond very well to the first 12 weeks of treatment with margetuximab.
It is expected that about 171 people will take part in this research study.
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug combination to learn whether the drug combination works in treating a specific disease. "Investigational" means that the drug combination is being studied.
The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has approved paclitaxel, trastuzumab (Herceptin), and pertuzumab as part of a pre-operative treatment option for stage II-III HER2-positive breast cancer.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved margetuximab (Margenza) for advanced HER2-positive breast cancer.

-
Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days of treatment start. Childbearing potential is defined as: those who have not been surgically sterilized and/or have had a menstrual period in the past 12 months

-
Patients with a history of ipsilateral or contralateral DCIS or LCIS are eligible.
-
Patients undergoing breast conservation therapy (i.e. lumpectomy) must not have any contraindications to radiation therapy.
-
Non-English-speaking patients are eligible but will be exempt from patient-completed questionnaires.
-
Willing and able to sign informed consent.
-
Willing to undergo breast biopsy for research purposes.

- Active, unresolved infection requiring intervention
- Receipt of intravenous antibiotics for infection within 7 days prior to registration.

- Significant symptoms (Grade ≥ 2) from peripheral neuropathy.
- Other concurrent serious diseases that may interfere with planned treatment, including severe pulmonary conditions/illness, uncontrolled infections, uncontrolled diabetes.
- Any prior treatment for the current breast cancer, including chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiation, or experimental therapy.
- Patients with any prior history of invasive breast cancer within the past 5 years are not eligible. Non-metastatic invasive breast cancers diagnosed more than 5 years ago and any other type of prior non-metastatic cancer is allowed.
