12 weekS Adjuvant dOcetaxel Plus trastuzumaB in Patients With Small, Node-negative, HER2-positive Breast cancER (SOBER)

This phase II trial aims to study the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks adjuvant docetaxel plus trastuzumab in patients with tumors ≤1cm, node-negative, HER2-positive breast cancer.

Why the study stopped: Due to slower than anticipated enrollment, the study was terminated early after 78 patients were recruited.

About this study

Many clinical trials has showed the superiority of combining trastuzumab to chemotherapy in the treatment of HER2 positive early breast cancer with tumor size ≥1cm or node metastasis.But in pT1n0m0 breast cancer patients, patients with HER2 positive tumor show worse prognosis than those with HER2 negative tumor.A short duration of trastuzumab administration contaminately with chemotherapy may have similar efficacy and lowerer toxiticy compared with standard one year therapy.Our study aims to study the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks adjuvant docetaxel plus trastuzumab in patients with tumors ≤1cm, node-negative, HER2-positive breast cancer.

Primary outcomes

  1. Disease-free Survival

    Time frame: 3-year estimates

    Estimated percentage of patients alive and disease-free at 3 years from randomization, where disease-free survival is defined as the time from the date of surgery to the first appearance of one of the following: breast cancer in situ or invasive breast cancer recurrence at local, regional, or distant site, invasive contralateral breast cancer, second (non-breast) invasive cancer, or death without cancer event; or censored at date of last follow-up.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Breast Cancer Specific Survival

    Time frame: 3-year estimates

    Defined as the time from the date of surgery to death from breast cancer relapse; or censored at date last known alive.

  2. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 3-year estimats

    Defined as the time from the date of surgery to death from any cause; or censored at date last known alive.

  3. Treatment-related adverse events

    Time frame: up to 4 months

    Incidence and severity of adverse events as assessed by NCI CTCAE V4.0

  4. Change of LVEF after treatment

    Time frame: up to 4 months

    The change of LVEF after 12 weeks treatment compared to the baseline LVEF
