About the research
This is a multi-center real-world study, in which patients who meet the inclusion criteria will receive treatment with Pyrotinib + Trastuzumab + Taxanes. Taxanes will be used for 6-8 cycles or discontinued due to intolerable Adverse Events (AEs), after which Capecitabine will be used for rhythmic chemotherapy combined with Pyrotinib + Trastuzumab. The aim is to explore the efficacy and safety of Pyrotinib, Trastuzumab, and Taxanes in treating Trastuzumab-treated HER2+ Advanced Breast Cancer (ABC).
Who may be able to participate?
The list below is the sponsor’s full registry wording. It can include conditions, prior treatment, test results and other requirements. A match in search does not mean you qualify.
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Age: 18-70 years old, female;
2. Pathological examination confirmed HER-2 positive invasive breast cancer; (HER2 positivity is defined as an immunohistochemical (IHC) score of 3+ or in-situ hybridization (ISH) result for HER2 gene amplification in \>10% of immunoreactive cells.
HER2 positivity needs to be verified by the pathology department of the research center involved in this study)
3. Imaging confirmed recurrent/metastatic breast cancer;
4. Patients who relapsed and metastasized three months after discontinuation of Trastuzumab treatment;
5. Have at least one measurable lesion (according to RECIST 1.1 criteria);
6. ECOG score of 0-2;
7. Expected life span ≥3 months;
8. Normal major organ function;
9. The researcher believes that the participant may benefit;
10. Volunteer to participate in this study, sign informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
Patients who meet any of the following criteria are not eligible for participation:
1. Have any confirmed history of drug allergies, or severe allergic reactions to any component of the investigational drug (NCI-CTCAE 5.0 grade \> 3);
2. Patients in advanced stages who have undergone systemic treatment;
3. A history of serious heart diseases such as congestive heart failure, unstable angina, arrhythmia or myocardial infarction;
4. Suffer from serious pulmonary diseases, such as interstitial lung disease or pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, acute pulmonary diseases, etc.;
5. Currently suffering from severe liver-related diseases, such as acute hepatitis, explosive hepatitis, coagulation factor synthesis disorder, etc.; Those who are positive for HBV surface antigen or HBV core antibody must have a peripheral blood Hepatitis B virus DNA titer test \< 1×10 \^3 IU/ml in order to participate;
6. Comorbidity or condition that may interfere with their participation in the study, or any serious medical impediment that might affect participant's safety (such as, active or uncontrolled infection, active liver/gallbladder disease requiring antiviral treatment);
7. Other invasive tumors (including second primary breast cancer) that may affect the evaluation of results and adherence to the protocol;
8. Having undergone major surgical procedure or are yet to recover from major internal diseases within the 4 weeks prior to the study;
9. Any circumstance that the researcher considers the participant unfit to participate in the study.

Experimental arm
Pyrotinib, Trastuzumab Combined With Taxanes
\*When taxane drugs are discontinued (after completing 6-8 cycles of treatment or due to intolerance), the therapy can be continued with the combination of metronomic capecitabine and trastuzumab, along with pyrotinib.
Drug: Pyrotinib · Drug: Trastuzumab · Drug: Taxanes · Drug: Capecitabine
Pyrotinib DRUG
Pyrotinib 400mg qd po continuously
Trastuzumab DRUG
For Trastuzumab, the loading dose for the first treatment cycle is 8 mg/kg, and for subsequent cycles, 6 mg/kg. It is to be used once every three weeks
Taxanes DRUG
Taxanes: Usual clinical dose is administered, in a 21-day cycle.
Capecitabine DRUG
Capecitabine: 650mg/m2 each time, given twice daily
What researchers are measuring
Outcome measures describe what is being studied. They are not proof that a treatment works.
Primary measures
PFS
Time frame: 24months
the period of time from the start of treatment for cancer patients to the observation of disease progression, or death due to any reason
Secondary measures
CNS-PFS
Time frame: 24months
the period of time from the start of treatment for cancer patients to the observation of intracranial progression , or death due to any reason
ORR
Time frame: 24months
the proportion of patients who have a partial or complete response to therapy
DCR
Time frame: 24months
the percentage of patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have achieved complete response, partial response and stable disease to a therapeutic intervention in clinical trials of anticancer agents
OS
Time frame: 24months
the period of time from the start of treatment for cancer patients to the observation of death due to any reason
Overall Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event, Including Serious and Non-Serious Adverse Events
Time frame: 24months
Adverse event (AE) severity was assessed according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 5.0 (NCI-CTCAE v5.0); if the AE was not specifically listed, the following grades of severity were used: Grade 1 = mild; Grade 2 = moderate; Grade 3 = severe; Grade 4 = life-threatening or disabling; and Grade 5 = death. Severe and serious are not synonymous. Severity refers to the intensity of an AE, whereas a serious AE must meet criteria set out in the protocol; both were independently assessed for each AE. Only the most severe intensity was counted for multiple occurrences of the same AE in one participant.
