Overview
Brief Summary
This is a single-center, single-arm, prospective study enrolling 30 patients with stage II-III triple-negative breast cancer. The neoadjuvant regimen consists of QL1706 combined with carboplatin plus albumin-bound paclitaxel (21-day cycles for 4 cycles) followed by QL1706 combined with doxorubicin/epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide (21-day cycles for 4 cycles). The treatment observation period is 1 year, and the primary endpoint is the pathological complete response rate.

Exclusion Criteria
- •History of invasive malignancies within 5 years prior to signing the informed consent form, except for adequately treated basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell skin cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix;
- •Subjects who have received chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, or radiotherapy within the past 12 months;
- •Stage IV metastatic breast cancer;
- •Administration of a vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of the study treatment;
- •Subjects with severe systemic diseases;
- •Subjects with active infections (including but not limited to HIV, hepatitis B or C, tuberculosis);
- •Severe cardiovascular diseases, such as: history of myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, or coronary angioplasty/stenting/bypass grafting within the past 6 months; or congestive heart failure (CHF) of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II-IV, or history of CHF NYHA class III or IV;

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pathologic complete response (pCR) rates
Time Frame: Up to approximately 9 months
pCR rate (ypT0/Tis ypN0) is defined as the percentage of participants without residual invasive cancer on hematoxylin and eosin evaluation of the complete resected breast specimen and all sampled regional lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant systemic therapy by current American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging criteria assessed by the local pathologist at the time of definitive surgery.
Secondary Outcomes
- Objective response rate(ORR)(Up to approximately 27-30 weeks)
- 3y-EFS(Up to approximately 3 years)
- Overall survival (OS)(Up to approximately 8 years)
- Adverse events(up to 18 months)
