The purpose of this study is to establish a prospective, single-center platform research based on clinical subtypes to explore precision neoadjuvant therapy in patients with operable breast cancer who met the indications for neoadjuvant chemotherapy and by the update of basic translational research in the center, especially the refinement of typing, the discovery of new targets and the development of novel targeted drugs, verified the effectiveness of new targeted drugs in neoadjuvant therapy.

89Zr-DFO*-Trastuzumab PET in Patients With Gastric or Breast Cancer - a Pilot Study

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new PET tracer in patients with HER2-positive breast or gastric cancer. This tracer is made of radioactively labeled trastuzumab, and can show where HER2 is present in the body using a PET-scan. For this research, the investigators make PET-scans in people with HER2-positive, metastasized breast- or gastric cancer. The investigators will investigate if the new HER2-tracer correctly shows all tumor lesions. In the future, this method may be useful to help predict who will benefit from certain HER2-directed therapies. Participants will be injected with the radioactive tracer once. After injection, participants will undergo 3 PET-scans. Each PET-scan will take a maximum of 60 minutes. The PET-scans are on separate days within a week after injection of the tracer (e.g. 1 day, 2 days and 4 days after injection). Furthermore, the investigators will take 7 blood samples (5 mL each). Participants are not required to stay at the hospital. The first 3 participants will undergo an extra PET-scan 1 - 2 hours after injection. The amount of radioactivity injected will be 37 MBq (± 10%).

Clinical Trial of Atezolizumab With Paclitaxel, Trastuzumab, and Pertuzumab in Patients With Metastatic HER-2 Positive Breast Cancer

This is a single arm, Phase IIA clinical trial assessing the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with paclitaxel, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab in 50 patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2-overexpressing breast cancer. Due to concerns that corticosteroids may have a negative effect on tumor immunity expected with addition of atezolizumab to the standard of care regimen, patients will receive premedication with dexamethasone only for weeks 1 and 2 of the weekly paclitaxel, and then corticosteroid premedication will be discontinued subsequently. Patients must have pathologically confirmed HER2-overexpressing breast cancer that is locally recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic, with measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1. Tumor measurements and bone scans will be performed every 9 weeks while patients are on study.

Trastuzumab Rezetecan (T-DXh) in HER2+ Breast Cancer With Non-pCR After TCbHP

This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, phase 2 exploratory study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding 4 cycles of Trastuzumab Rezetecan (T-DXh), an anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate, as continued neoadjuvant therapy in patients with early or locally advanced HER2-positive breast cancer who have residual invasive disease after standard 6-cycle TCbHP (taxane, carboplatin, trastuzumab, pertuzumab) neoadjuvant therapy. Patients will receive 4 cycles of T-DXh (4.8 mg/kg IV Q3W) followed by radical surgery. The primary endpoint is tpCR rate. Secondary endpoints include ORR, EFS, OS, 3-year iDFS, and safety. Simon's two-stage design (H0: pCR ≤10%, H1: pCR ≥25%, α=0.05, β=0.2) requires 43 evaluable patients; with 10% dropout, 48 patients will be enrolled.

HER2HEART-US: Prevention of Cardiotoxicity in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving HER2-directed Therapy

Ten to 15% of patients with breast cancer are HER2 positive, with treatment focused on targeting the HER2 receptor. Although these treatments are generally well tolerated, they are associated with an increased risk of cardiomyopathy. There are currently no treatments proven to prevent the cardiotoxicities associated with HER2-targeted therapy, but there is convincing preclinical data demonstrating that prophylactic treatment with a beta blocker (BB) and/or an SGLT2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) may each independently prevent cardiotoxicity and HER-targeted treatment interruptions. The proposed pilot study will assess the feasibility and preliminary efficacy and safety of therapy with both a beta blocker (carvedilol) and an SGLT2 inhibitor (empagliflozin), alone and in combination, in a population initiating HER2-directed therapy for HER2+ breast cancer. The hypotheses being tested in this study are: 1. It is feasible to recruit 20-40 patients over 6 months 2. There are no differences in tolerability and safety between participants taking carvedilol and/or empagliflozin and those receiving usual care.

HER2 Directed Dendritic Cell Vaccine During Neoadjuvant Therapy of HER2+Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to learn more about how to treat patients with HER-2/neu positive invasive breast cancer (IBC). HER-2/neu is a type of protein that is known to be over-expressed in aggressive breast cancer. The study drug for this trial is DC1 study vaccine which is a HER2-sensitized dendritic cell (DC) study vaccine. This study vaccine is made from the participant's blood cells collected from a procedure called leukapheresis. Dendritic cells are immune cells that can tell the immune system to fight infection. In laboratory testing and from previous studies in participants, these cells may also help the immune system attack tumors such as breast cancer.

I-SPY TRIAL: Neoadjuvant and Personalized Adaptive Novel Agents to Treat Breast Cancer

The purpose of this study is to further advance the ability to practice personalized medicine by learning which new drug agents are most effective with which types of breast cancer tumors and by learning more about which early indicators of response (tumor analysis prior to surgery via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images along with tissue and blood samples) are predictors of treatment success.

TVB-2640 and Trastuzumab With Paclitaxel or Endocrine Therapy for Treatment of HER2 Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer

This phase II trial studies how well FASN inhibitor TVB-2640, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab work in treating patients with HER2 positive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). FASN inhibitor TVB-2640 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Trastuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches itself to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab attaches to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the cancer cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Drugs used in endocrine therapy either lower the amount of estrogen made by the body or blocks the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. Giving FASN inhibitor TVB-2640 and trastuzumab in combination with paclitaxel or endocrine therapy may help control the disease in patients with HER2 positive breast cancer.
