简要总结
Evaluate the IDFS rate, overall survival (OS) rate, and safety profile of UTD2 combined with capecitabine versus capecitabine monotherapy as adjuvant therapy for triple-negative early breast cancer patients who did not achieve pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant therapy.
详细描述
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label phase III clinical study that aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy involving the use of oral UTD2 capsule in conjunction with capecitabine, as compared to the efficacy and safety of capecitabine monotherapy. The study is specifically focused on patients diagnosed with triple-negative early breast cancer who, after undergoing neoadjuvant therapy, did not achieve a pathological complete response (pCR). The primary objective of this research is to assess whether the addition of UTD2 to capecitabine can provide a more effective adjuvant treatment option for this particular group of patients.

- •Age and Gender Female patients aged 18 to 70 years old (inclusive) on the day of signing the informed consent.
- •Prior Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy without pCR Received prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy containing anthracycline or taxane agents without achieving pathological complete response (pCR).

- •Surgical Resection Underwent complete surgical resection (R0) with pathologically confirmed negative margins.
- •Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Confirmation
- •Post-resection tumor tissue confirmed as ER-negative, PR-negative, and HER2-negative breast cancer by immunohistochemistry (IHC):
- •ER-negative: <1% expression by IHC. PR-negative: <1% expression by IHC. HER2-negative: IHC score of 0 or 1+, or 2+ with negative in situ hybridization (ISH) results.

- •Performance Status ECOG performance status of 0 to
- •Hematological Criteria (within 1 week prior to enrollment)
- •Blood tests meet the following criteria (CTCAE v5.0 ≤ Grade 1, based on institutional laboratory standards):
- •White blood cell (WBC) count ≥ 3.0 × 10^9/L. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 10^9/L. Platelet (PLT) count ≥ 100 × 10^9/L. Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL. No administration of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF), blood products, or erythropoietin (EPO) within 14 days prior to enrollment.
- •Biochemical Criteria (within 1 week prior to enrollment)
- •Normal blood biochemistry (CTCAE v5.0 ≤ Grade 1, based on institutional laboratory standards):
- •Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN). Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 1.5 × ULN. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤ 2.5 × ULN. Creatinine clearance (Ccr) ≥ 50 mL/min. Contraception Requirements Fertile patients must agree to use highly effective contraception (hormonal, barrier methods, or abstinence) with their partners during the trial and for at least 6 months after the last dose. Premenopausal female patients must have a negative blood or urine pregnancy test before enrollment.
