Site for EA1181 (CompassHER2-pCR): Preoperative THP and postoperative HP in patients who achieve a pathologic complete response (PSCI# 20-099)
The purpose of this study is to test whether it is safe to eliminate additional chemotherapy after surgery in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who have no remaining cancer at surgery, after receiving a single chemotherapy drug (for most patients, paclitaxel), with Herceptin (trastuzumab) and Perjeta (pertuzumab) for 12 weeks before surgery. The standard treatment for patients who have no remaining cancer at surgery is to receive additional chemotherapy after surgery. This study will test whether patients who receive no further chemotherapy after surgery have no higher chance of tumor recurrence than patients who have received additional chemotherapy after surgery.
