Pyrotinib-based regimens for advanced HER2-positive breast cancer: real-world sequential therapy after progression

Official title: Real-world Study of Pyrotinib-containing Regimens in First-line or Second-line Treatment of Advanced HER2-positive Breast Cancer

Run by Peking University People's Hospital · NCT07600164 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This real-world study tests whether giving disitamab vedotin after pyrotinib-based treatment helps people with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18 years) with histologically confirmed HER2-positive inoperable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, receiving either first-line or second-line pyrotinib-containing regimens and considered candidates for subsequent disitamab vedotin therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients whose disease does not respond to sequential therapy or who experience intolerable toxicity may not benefit from the plan.

What this trial studies

This multicenter, prospective real-world study will enroll up to 500 adults with HER2-positive inoperable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who are receiving first- or second-line therapy. It examines sequential use of disitamab vedotin following disease progression or intolerance to pyrotinib-based regimens, with pyrotinib plus trastuzumab and chemotherapy as first-line and pyrotinib plus capecitabine as second-line. Primary endpoint is real-world second progression-free survival (rwPFS2); secondary endpoints include rwPFS, tumor response, overall survival, time to treatment failure, safety, and patient-reported outcomes. The study seeks to reflect real clinical practice across a single center, focusing on safety and effectiveness of sequential therapy in routine care.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the approach could offer a practical sequence of therapies to improve disease control and survival for patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer.

How similar studies have gone: Previous trials have shown activity of pyrotinib and disitamab vedotin in HER2-positive disease, but real-world sequential data remain limited and this study addresses that gap.

Who can join: the full rules

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Aged ≥ 18 years old;
2. Histopathologically confirmed HER2-positive inoperable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer;
3. Patients with first-line or second-line advanced disease:

   First-line advanced disease: no prior systemic therapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease. For patients who received neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy, the disease-free interval (DFI) after the completion of the last chemotherapy or HER2-targeted therapy was more than 12 months; Second-line advanced disease: prior treatment with taxane combined with trastuzumab, with or without pertuzumab, in the advanced setting; or recurrence occurring during neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, or a disease-free interval (DFI) of ≤ 12 months after completion of the last neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy and HER2-targeted therapy;
4. Planned to receive pyrotinib-containing regimen, and judged by investigators based on clinical practice to have potential subsequent treatment with Ruikang trastuzumab after failure of pyrotinib-containing therapy;
5. Traceable medical records available throughout the treatment period.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Failure to sign the informed consent form;
2. Pregnant or lactating females;
3. Patients participating in any interventional clinical trial involving investigational drugs or marketed drugs at enrollment;
4. Other conditions deemed ineligible for enrollment by the investigator's judgment.
