Neoadjuvant Oral Paclitaxel Plus Subcutaneous Pertuzumab/Trastuzumab in Patients With HER2-positive Breast Cancer
- Conditions
- Breast Cancers
- Interventions
- Drug: Paclitaxel oral solution plus Subcutaneous Pertuzumab/Trastuzumab
- Registration Number
- NCT07095023
- Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral paclitaxel plus fixed-dose combination of pertuzumab and trastuzumab for subcutaneous injection in the neoadjuvant treatment of HER2+ breast cancer patients.
- Detailed Description
OPTIMAL-BC is a multicenter, single arm study using a Simon's two-stage design evaluating neoadjuvant treatment with paclitaxel oral solution combined with subcutaneous fixed dose combination (FDC) of pertuzumab and trastuzumab every 3 weeks for 6 cycles. All subjects will undergo surgery in line with local guidelines following neoadjuvant therapy. The primary endpoint is total pathological complete response(tpCR, ypT0/is, ypN0).

Group Intervention Description Oral Paclitaxel plus Subcutaneous Pertuzumab/Trastuzumab Paclitaxel oral solution plus Subcutaneous Pertuzumab/Trastuzumab Paclitaxel oral solution plus subcutaneous fixed-dose combination of pertuzumab and trastuzumab
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Total Pathological Complete Response(tpCR) Approximately 6 months from first dose of study drug following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 6 weeks after neoadjuvant treatment) It refers to the absence of any invasive cancer in the resected specimens (breast + axilla) after completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery (i.e., ypT0/is, ypN0).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall Response Rate(ORR) Approximately 6 months from first dose of study drug following surgery or early withdrawal, whichever occurred first (Surgery was performed within 6 weeks after neoadjuvant treatment) Tumor assessments were made based upon the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria - version 1.1. ORR includes both partial response (PR) and complete response (CR).
Event-Free Survival (EFS) Up to 3 years EFS is defined as the time from randomization to any of the following events: disease progression during neoadjuvant treatment, disease recurrence, or any cause of death.
Overall survival(OS) Up to 3 years Overall survival is defined as the time from treatment start until death from any cause.
Health Related Quality of Life (QoL) From baseline to 30 days after completion of treatment or the last follow-up visit To evaluate changes in health related quality of life (QoL) assessments from baseline in all subjects using the Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). Scores in each dimension are uniformly transformed to dimensions ranging from 0 to 100. For functional and global quality of life scales, higher scores mean a better level of functioning. For symptom-oriented scales, a higher score means more severe symptoms.
Adverse Events From first dose of study drug to 30 days after completion of treatment Safety will be assessed by evaluating the incidence, and severity of adverse events according to CTCAE 5.0 (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events).
