SHR-A1811 Monotherapy or Sequential THPy as Neoadjuvant Therapy for Stage II-III HER2-Positive Breast Cancer

This is a prospective, open-label, phase II, multicenter exploratory clinical study. Eligible female patients aged 18-75 years with stage II-III HER2-positive breast cancer will receive 4 cycles of SHR-A1811 (4.8 mg/kg, intravenous infusion every 3 weeks). After 4 cycles, tumor response will be assessed per RECIST 1.1 criteria. Patients with a ≥50% reduction in tumor burden will continue with another 4 cycles of SHR-A1811 followed by definitive surgery. Patients with \<50% reduction will receive 4 cycles of the THPy regimen (docetaxel + trastuzumab + pyrotinib) before surgery. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) will be assessed for minimal residual disease (MRD) at baseline, after 4 cycles of treatment, and postoperatively. The primary endpoint is total pathological complete response (tpCR), assessed by an independent review committee (IRC). This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of imaging- and MRD-guided neoadjuvant therapy in HER2-positive breast cancer.

PAveMenT: Palbociclib and Avelumab in Metastatic AR+ Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This clinical study is aiming to determine the safest doses and schedule for the combination of two drugs named palbociclib and avelumab. The study will also be investigating how effective the combination is for a subgroup of breast cancer patients whose cancer expresses the androgen receptor (AR) but not the oestrogen (hormone) or HER2 receptors. Palbociclib is a drug used in routine care for hormone-receptor (HR) positive and HER2 negative advanced breast cancer, the most common subtype of breast cancer. It is possible that the combination of palbociclib and avelumab will be a more effective cancer treatment than each drug separately, but this is unknown and this study is needed to establish the best dosage and schedule of each drug as well as how effective the combination is.

De-escalation Neoadjuvant Therapy for Intermediate Risk HER2-positive Early Breast

High pathological complete response (pCR) rates are seen using different neoadjuvant chemotherapy schedules with trastuzumab and pertuzumab in HER2-positive stage II-III breast cancer patients. Total pCR rates in breast and axilla have been described as high as 64%, and with an even higher rate of \>80% in patients with HER2-positive and hormone receptor (HR) negative tumors. pCR is associated with better long-term outcomes in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. Neoadjuvant treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer typically consists of six cycles of treatment. Longer duration of treatment is associated with higher pCR-rates but also with increased toxicity. It is therefore important to investigate which patients can safely be treated with less than six cycles of chemotherapy and which patients require six cycles for maximum efficacy.It is hypothesized that patients with a complete pathologic response may not benefit from additional chemotherapy, while those with residual invasive disease require further treatment. This study will evaluate de-escalation of the number of neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles in intermediate risk HER2-positive breast cancer.

A Study of BL-M07D1, BL-M07D1+Pertuzumab and BL-M07D1+Pertuzumab+Docetaxel in Patients With Unresectable Locally Advanced or Metastatic HER2-positive Breast Cancer

This study is a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BL-M07D1, BL-M07D1+Pertuzumab and BL-M07D1+Pertuzumab+Docetaxel as first-line treatment in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer.

SMP-656 for HER2-Positive Advanced Breast Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if single-agent SMP-656 works to treat patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have progressed after prior HER2-targeted topoisomerase inhibitor antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) treatment. It will also evaluate the safety of SMP-656 and identify the optimal dose for future trials. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the objective tumor response rate (DOR, PFS, DCR, OS) of two different dose regimens of intravenous SMP-656? What are the side effects and safety risks of these two SMP-656 dose regimens? Which dose level achieves the best balance of anti-cancer activity and tolerability? This is a randomized, open-label, dose-optimization Phase II clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive one of two fixed doses of SMP-656 given intravenously once every 3 weeks. Participants will: Complete screening tests within 28 days before the first SMP-656 infusion to confirm eligibility Receive study treatment every 3 weeks until cancer progression, intolerable side effects, withdrawal, or other stopping criteria Have regular tumor imaging scans, physical exams, vital sign checks, and blood tests to monitor tumor response and safety Attend a safety follow-up visit 30 days after the last dose of SMP-656 Complete longer-term survival follow-up after the 30-day safety check Provide optional blood and tumor tissue samples for additional research studies

A Study of Tucatinib vs. Placebo in Combination With Ado-trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) for Patients With Advanced or Metastatic HER2+ Breast Cancer

This study is being done to see if tucatinib with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) works better than T-DM1 alone to help patients who have a specific type of breast cancer called HER2 positive breast carcinoma. The breast cancer in this study is either metastatic (spread into other parts of the body) or cannot be removed completely with surgery. Patients in this study will be randomly assigned to get either tucatinib or placebo (a pill with no medicine). This is a blinded study, so neither patients nor their doctors will know whether a patient gets tucatinib or placebo. All patients in the study will get T-DM1, a drug that is often used to treat this cancer. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Patients will swallow tucatinib pills or placebo pills two times every day. Patients will get T-DM1 injections from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle.
