Sponsored by Fudan University · Phase 3, Interventional, and Treatment
Evaluate the IDFS rate, overall survival (OS) rate, and safety profile of UTD2 combined with capecitabine versus capecitabine monotherapy as adjuvant therapy for triple-negative early breast cancer patients who did not achieve pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant therapy.
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label phase III clinical study that aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy involving the use of oral UTD2 capsule in conjunction with capecitabine, as compared to the efficacy and safety of capecitabine monotherapy. The study is specifically focused on patients diagnosed with triple-negative early breast cancer who, after undergoing neoadjuvant therapy, did not achieve a pathological complete response (pCR). The primary objective of this research is to assess whether the addition of UTD2 to capecitabine can provide a more effective adjuvant treatment option for this particular group of patients.

Prior Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy without pCR Received prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy containing anthracycline or taxane agents without achieving pathological complete response (pCR).
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy requirement: At least 4 completed cycles. Non-pCR definition: Residual invasive carcinoma confirmed by pathology after primary tumor resection.
Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Confirmation
Post-resection tumor tissue confirmed as ER-negative, PR-negative, and HER2-negative breast cancer by immunohistochemistry (IHC):
ER-negative: \<1% expression by IHC. PR-negative: \<1% expression by IHC. HER2-negative: IHC score of 0 or 1+, or 2+ with negative in situ hybridization (ISH) results.

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0
Collect all participants' adverse event data and classify and assess them according to the CTCAE v4.0 criteria. This includes documenting the type of adverse event, severity (Grade 1-5), duration, and whether it is related to the study treatment. Data collection can be conducted through electronic health records, patient reports, or investigator reports, among other methods.
Time frame: 24 months
