简要总结
This is a prospective, multisite, randomized, open-label Phase III clinical trial (CLOVER study) comparing 4 cycles with 6 cycles of TC (docetaxel+cyclophosphamide) adjuvant chemotherapy for 1-3 positive lymph node, ER+/HER2- early breast cancer patients.
详细描述
While TC (docetaxel+cyclophosphamide) adjuvant chemotherapy is one of the preferred regimens for early breast cancer, we have yet to determine the optimum number of cycles for TC adjuvant chemotherapy. In this prospective, open-label clinical trial, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative early breast cancer patients with 1-3 positive lymph nodes will be randomized into either 4 cycles or 6 cycles of TC adjuvant chemotherapy. The safety and efficacy of each group will be assessed through disease-free survival (DFS), invasive disease free survival (iDFS), distant disease free survival (DDFS), overall survival (OS) and adverse effects (AE) as graded by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 4.0.
