Summary

This study plans to initiate a prospective, randomized controlled trial to investigate the optimal timing of antibody drug conjugate (ADC) therapy in the management of advanced Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer.

Primary Objective:

To compare the difference in PFS2 (Time from randomization to disease progression after second therapy) between antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) followed by chemotherapy versus chemotherapy followed by ADC in the treatment of advanced HER2-negative breast cancer.

Secondary Objectives:

To compare overall survival (OS), adverse events, patient-reported outcomes, and cost-effectiveness between the two treatment sequences. Additionally, to identify potential biomarkers predictive of benefit from frontline ADC therapy.

Conditions

  • Breast Cancer Females

Interventions

DRUG

Antibody drug conjugate

The selection of ADC agents will be based on the patient's molecular subtype. For Hormone receptor (HR)+/HER2-low patients, anti-HER2 ADCs such as trastuzumab deruxtecan may be used. For HR+/HER2-zero patients, TROP-2-targeted ADCs such as sacituzumab govitecan are preferred. For HR-/HER2-low patients, either anti-HER2 ADCs or Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP-2) ADCs may be considered. For HR-/HER2-zero patients, TROP-2 ADCs will be used. The specific ADC regimen will be determined at the discretion of the investigators.

DRUG

Chemotherapy

The chemotherapy regimen will consist of standard second-line agents such as capecitabine, eribulin, vinorelbine, or gemcitabine. The specific chemotherapy regimen will be determined at the discretion of the investigators.
