Clinical Trial Summary

This is a prospective examination of ribonucleic acid (RNA) extracted from tumor material of breast cancer patients treated with a neo-adjuvant therapy. The RNA will be analysed for expression of estrogen receptor (ER 1), progesterone receptor (PgR), HER2 and Ki-67 with MammaTyper™.

According to the determined values for the individual parameters at least 4 subtypes can be distinguished to date

• Luminal A-type

• Luminal B-type

• HER2-type

• Triple-negative-type As non-clinical endpoint, the agreement of new subtyping with Immunohistochemical methods will be evaluated.

As clinical objective, the 5 year Distant metastasis free survival (DMFS) and Overall survival (OS) will be reevaluated according to the new subtyping.

Description:

Tumor material collected from patients who received neoadjuvant therapy either with four cycles of doxorubicin 60 mg/m² plus pemetrexed 500 mg/m² on day 1 every 21 days followed by four cycles of docetaxel 100 mg/m² on day 1 every 21 days or four cycles of doxorubicin 60 mg/m² plus cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m² on day 1 every 21 days followed by four cycles of docetaxel 100 mg/m² on day 1 every 21 days will be re-analyzed with the MammaTyper Kit. The Kit is an in-vitro molecular diagnostic test for molecular subtyping of breast cancers into Luminal A & B, HER2 and Triple negative. It allows quantitative detection of the RNA expression status of the genes for estrogen receptor (ESR1), PgR, HER2 and Ki-67 on the basis of their mRNA present in the samples. This prospective diagnostic study will investigate the subtyping-results of the MammaTyper™ analysis and will compare them to the subtyping of the former immunohistochemical analysis performed. Based on the MammaTyper™-subtypes the efficiency of the therapy regimen and the outcome will be re-evaluated from the patient data.

Intervention

Device:
• MammaTyper™
MammaTyper™ is an in vitro molecular diagnostic test for the quantitative detection of the biomarkers estrogen receptor (ESR1), progesterone receptor ( PgR), Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and proliferation antigen Ki-67 on the basis of the values of the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Agreement of new subtyping assessed as rate of patients in MammaTyper-subtype groups compared to rate of patients in subtype groups according to immunohistochemical analysis according to St. Gallen Guideline 2013	For each MammaTyper and immunohistochemical based subtype categorization, percent agreement, positive and negative percent agreement as well as kappa-statistics are calculated.	Baseline
Secondary	Assess difference of 5 year OS of breast cancer subgroup Luminal A vs. combined subgroup (Luminal B (HER2 positive / HER2 negative), HER2 positive, triple negative), based on subtyping with MammaTyper™	Assessed as rate of patients in subgroup Luminal A with 5 year OS vs. rate of patients in combined subgroups with 5 year OS based on MammaTyper subtyping	5 years from the date of patient registration
Secondary	Estimation of difference in prediction of pathologic complete remission for MammaTyperTM Ki-67 vs. local Ki-67 visual scoring assessment for Luminal tumors, whereby a positive difference is expected	Assessed as rate of patients with complete response and Ki-67 determination according to MammaTyper and visual scoring assessment	Baseline
Secondary	ESR1 mRNA is predictive for 5 year OS with low expression of ESR1 mRNA being associated with adverse outcome (rate of patients with 5 year OS and high or low expression of ESR1 mRNA)	Assessed as rate of patients with 5 year OS and high or low expression of ESR1 mRNA	5 years from the date of patient registration
