About this trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) combined with toripalimab and chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy for ER+/HER2- breast cancer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1.

Disqualifiers

Female patients during pregnancy or lactation.

Diagnosis of bilateral breast cancer, occult breast cancer, or distant metastasis confirmed by pathology.

Has an active autoimmune disease that has received systemic treatment in the last 2 years.

Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or known active hepatitis C virus infection.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Total Pathological Complete Response (tpCR) Rate: ypT0/Tis, ypN0

The tpCR rate is defined as the proportion of participants with no residual invasive cancer cells in both the breast primary tumor site (residual in situ cancer cells are permitted) and all sampled axillary lymph nodes.

Time frame
Up to approximately 30 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Breast Pathological Complete Response (bpCR) Rate: ypT0/Tis

The bpCR rate is defined as the proportion of participants with no residual invasive cancer cells in the breast primary tumor site (residual in situ cancer cells are permitted).

Time frame
Up to approximately 30 weeks
2

Objective Response Rate (ORR)

ORR is defined as the proportion of participants with a complete or partial response.

Time frame
Up to approximately 30 weeks
3

Event-Free Survival (EFS)

EFS is defined as the time from randomization to any of the following events: precludes surgery, local or distant recurrence, second primary malignancy, or death due to any cause.

Time frame
Approximately five years
4

Adverse Event (AE)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered a medicinal product, temporally associated with study intervention, without presumption of causality.

Time frame
Approximately three years
