Testing two medicines before surgery for HER2-positive breast cancer
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This Phase 2 trial compares nab-PH plus pyrrolitinib versus TCbHP as treatment given before breast surgery. It aims to see which option works better and is safe for people with HER2-positive invasive breast cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 to 65, and your daily activity level is good (ECOG 0–1).
- Your breast cancer is HER2-positive, confirmed by pathology testing (tumor shows HER2 3+ on staining or is HER2-positive on FISH testing).
- Your cancer is not spread to distant organs (no stage IV/metastatic breast cancer).
- Your tumor is at an operable stage: T2 to T4d, or T1c with cancer in the underarm lymph node (axillary LN+).
- You have test results that show you can safely take chemotherapy (blood counts, liver, kidneys meet study cutoffs).
- Your heart ultrasound shows good pumping function (LVEF at least 55%), and you do not have certain serious heart problems.
