Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Trial to optimize neoadjuvant therapy for HER overexpression and co-expressing of hormone receptors(ER and/or PR) breast cancer (HEr2+/HR+).

A new high potential trastuzumab conjugate T-DM1(trastuzumab was linked with the cytotoxic agent mertansine DM1)was tested with endocrine therapy and without against a standard arm with trastuzumab and endocrine therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

the neoadjuvant therapy Patients with HER2+/HR+ (HER2+ and ER+ and/or PR+) tumor will receive single agent T-DM1 for 12 weeks (3,6 mg/kg q3w) with or without standard endocrine therapy (tamoxifen in premenopausal women and an aromatase inhibitor in postmenopausal women, if not contraindications are present, in a standard daily dosage). The control group will receive trastuzumab in 3-weekly schedule (8 mg/kg as loading dose and then 6 mg/kg q3w) in combination with the same standard endocrine therapy, if no contraindications are existent.
