About this study

The main purpose: To explore the safety of eliminating surgery for triple negative or HER2 positive breast cancer patients with clinical response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Secondary study objective: To explore predictive molecular biomarkers of response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and investigate whether ctDNA can predict pCR or survival outcome.

Primary endpoint: 5-year event-free survival (5-year EFS). Secondary end points: Whether combined neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy can improve breast pathological complete response rate (bpCR: ypT0), overall survival (OS), patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and safety

Treatment and study plan

Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy combined with Neoadjuvant Radiotherapy

Radiation

Neoadjuvant radiotherapy: whole-breast irradiation ( 50 Gy in 25 fractions) plus a mandatory boost (14 Gy in seven fractions, which began on the day following completion of whole-breast irradiation) TCb (HP) * : Triple negative patients will receive TCb regimens with or without immunotherapy and HER2 positive patients will receive TCb(HP) regimens.

Primary outcomes

  1. 5-year EFS

    Time frame: 60 weeks

    5 years event-free survival after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy

Secondary outcomes

  1. b-pCR

    Time frame: 18 weeks

    Whether combined neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy can improve breast pathological complete response rate (bpCR: ypT0)

  2. OS

    Time frame: 60 weeks

    overall survival after completing of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy
