A Phase II Study of Breast Cancer Treatment Using Weekly Carboplatin+Nab-paclitaxel, Plus Trastuzumab (HER2+) or Bevacizumab (HER2-) in the Neoadjuvant Setting
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Carboplatin, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, and 4 other interventions for Breast Cancer and 9 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 127 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This phase II is studying the side effects and how well carboplatin and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation when together with bevacizumab or trastuzumab before surgery works in treating patients with stage I-III breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab and trastuzumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and monoclonal antibody therapy together before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

Post-chemotherapy surgery for patients with a response or stable disease must take place no sooner than 21 days after last dose of Herceptin; and 40 days after last dose of bevacizumab to allow for normalization of blood counts
