About this trial

This study is a randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical study for patients with early or locally advanced (T≥2cm, N0-3, M0) HER2-positive breast cancer, aiming to compare the peripheral blood ctDNA clearance of neoadjuvant pyrotinib + trastuzumab + docetaxel and pertuzumab + trastuzumab + docetaxel for one course and to evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of four courses of neoadjuvant therapy
