Phase 2 Study of Zanidatamab for Early Stage HER2 Positive Breast Cancer
Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05035836
This clinical trial is testing the effectiveness of a new drug, zanidatamab, in treating patients with early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. The study aims to see if the drug can help eliminate cancer cells before surgery.

Program Overview
The study is focused on evaluating how well zanidatamab works for patients with early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. Researchers want to see if the drug can lead to a complete response, meaning no cancer cells are found after treatment. They will also look at how the drug affects tumor size, its safety, and any side effects. The study will explore how zanidatamab interacts with the immune system and its potential as a standalone treatment for this type of cancer.
Description
The main goal of this study is to see if zanidatamab can effectively treat early stage HER2 positive breast cancer by achieving a complete response, where no cancer cells are detected after treatment. Researchers will also assess the drug's impact on tumor size using imaging tests like ultrasound and MRI. They will monitor the safety and side effects of zanidatamab, both alone and in combination with hormone therapies like tamoxifen or letrozole for patients with hormone receptor positive tumors. The study will explore the feasibility of using zanidatamab as a single treatment and identify any biomarkers that predict how well patients respond to the drug. Additionally, researchers will investigate changes in circulating DNA and the immune environment as potential indicators of treatment response.
