Brief Title: A Study of the Addition of Metronomic Capecitabine to Standard Adjuvant Therapy in High Risk HER2+ BC paTients
Official Title: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-label Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Adding Metronomic Chemotherapy of Capecitabine to Standard Adjuvant Therapy for Patients With High Risk HER2-positive Primary Breast Cancer
Study ID: NCT03561740
Brief Summary: Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women. Recurrent or metastatic breast cancer is incurable. High risk patients usually have the following characteristics, such as, non-pCR after neoadjuvant therapy, lymph nodes positive, \>2cm tumor size, HER2 overexpression, etc. Intensive targeted or chemo therapy could improve prognosis. Previous studies have shown the efficacy and feasibility of intensive treatment of capecitabine in non-pCR breast cancer patients. Given the metronomic capecitabine therapy is well tolerated, we designed this study to compare the efficacy and safety of adding metronomic capecitabine to standard adjuvant therapy for high risk HER2+ breast cancer patients.
