Brief Summary

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

This is a randomized, open label Phase II neoadjuvant study comparing the efficacy and safety of the combination of traditional herbal medicine for cancer immunotherapy and neoadjuvant therapy versus neoadjuvant therapy in patients with breast cancer.

Detailed Description

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

This is a randomized, open label Phase II neoadjuvant study comparing the efficacy and safety of the combination of traditional herbal medicine for cancer immunotherapy and neoadjuvant therapy versus neoadjuvant therapy in patients with breast cancer. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to one of the two treatment arms: arm 1, combination of traditional herbal medicine for cancer immunotherapy and neoadjuvant therapy for 6 or 8 cycles; arm 2, neoadjuvant therapy 6 or 8 cycles. Patients will undergo surgery after neoadjuvant therapy. Efficacy will be assessed every 2 cycles.
