JBCRG-16 (Neo-LaTH): Investigation of Dual-HER2 Blockage Therapy in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer (exploratory randomized P-II) (JBCRG-16 NeoLaTH)

Objectives: To investigate the efficacy and safety of dual-HER2 blockage therapy in HER2-positive breast cancer. (1) To evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab(T) and lapatinib(L) therapy followed by combined with paclitaxel(P) in the neoadjuvant setting (2) To verify the period of T and L dual anti-HER2 therapy based on efficacy and safety (6 weeks vs 18 weeks). (3) To verify T and L combined with anti-endocrine therapy based on efficacy and safety in the patients with ER-p0sitive and HER2-positive charactersitics.

Endpoints: Primary :pCR (including residual DCIS, breast only) Secondary: (1) Safety, (2) Clinical response rate (ORR), (3) Breast conservation rate, (4) QpCR, (5) pCR (including residual DCIS, breast + axillary), (6) SpCR

Trial Period: Registration: Feb 2012-Sep 2013
Total study period: Feb 2012-Jul 2014
Post operative follow-up: -Jul 2019 (Follow-up study)

Lead Principal Investigator: Masakazu Toi (Graduate School of Medicine Kyoto University)
