EUREKA Study: Phase 2 Study to Optimize Neoadjuvant Therapy in HER2-positive Early-stage Breast Cancer Using ctDNA and HARPS Biomarker Assay
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey
Summary
This is an open-label phase 2 study to evaluate the pCR rate in patients diagnosed with HER2 positive breast cancer treated on an adaptive clinical trial design. Tumors will undergo testing using a novel molecular phosphoprotein-based biomarker assay, HER2 Activation Response Predictive Signature (HARPS) to identify HARPS-positive breast cancers. To assess 3-year invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) in patients with HARPS-positive and HARPS-negative HER2-positive breast cancer. To correlate changes in ctDNA with treatment outcomes in patients with HARPS-positive and HARPS-negative HER2-positive breast cancer. To understand the changes in quality of life (QOL) measure in patients with HARPS-positive HER2-positive breast cancer treated using an adaptive neoadjuvant trial design.
Description
EUREKA is a phase II study that will evaluate optimization of neoadjuvant therapy in patients with stage II-III HER2-positive breast cancer. This adaptive clinical trial will enroll patients with cT2-T3 N0-2 HER2-positive breast cancer. Tumors will undergo testing using HARPS assay to identify HARPS-positive and HARPS negative HER2-positive breast cancers. Patients with HARPS-positive HER2-positive breast cancer will be treated using an adaptive trial design to optimize neoadjuvant therapy such we are maximizing treatment efficacy while reducing risk of treatment related toxicities.
