Registered outcomes7
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | 3-year Invasive Disease-free Survival (IDFS) Among Analyzed ITT Patients | 3 years from randomization into study | The primary objective of the study is to compare the 3-year invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) of adjuvant TC versus TAC as treatment for early stage HER2-negative breast cancer among analyzed ITT patients. ITT patients are all patients who were randomized, whether or not they followed protocol. IDFS, defined as the time from the date of randomization to local recurrence following mastectomy, invasive local recurrence in the ipsilateral breast following lumpectomy, regional recurrence, distant recurrence, invasive contralateral breast cancer, second primary cancer (other than squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin, melanoma in situ, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, colorectal carcinoma in situ, or lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast), or death from any cause prior to recurrence or second primary cancer. Patients who have not had any such event at the time of data analysis will be censored at the last date they were known to be event-free. |
| Primary | 3-year Invasive Disease-free Survival (IDFS) Among Per-protocol Patients | 3 years from randomization into study | The primary objective of the study is to compare the 3-year invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) of adjuvant TC versus TAC as treatment for early stage HER2-negative breast cancer among per-protocol patients. Per-protocol only includes those patients who were randomized and received treatment as outlined in the protocol. |
| Secondary | 3-year DFS-DCIS, OS and RFI Among Analyzed ITT Patients | 3 years from randomization into study | To compare disease-free survival-ductal carcinoma in situ (DFS-DCIS),overall survival (OS) and recurrence free interval (RFI) of TC with TAC. DFS-DCIS, defined as the time from the date of randomization to local recurrence following mastectomy, local recurrence in the ipsilateral breast following lumpectomy (invasive or non-invasive), regional recurrence, distant recurrence, contralateral breast cancer (invasive or non-invasive), second primary cancer (other than squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin, melanoma in situ, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, colorectal carcinoma in situ, or lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast), or death from any cause prior to recurrence or second primary cancer. Patients who have not had any such event at the time of data analysis will be censored at the last date they were known to be event-free. |
| Secondary | 3-year DFS-DCIS, OS and RFI Among Per-protocol Patients. | 3 years from randomization into study | To compare disease-free survival-ductal carcinoma in situ (DFS-DCIS),overall survival (OS) and recurrence free interval (RFI) of TC with TAC among per protocol patients. |
| Secondary | Number and Frequency of Participants by TOP2A Status by Study Treatment | 10 years (from baseline to end of study participation) | To evaluate the effectiveness of TC and TAC in TOP2A altered (amplified, deleted, or overexpressed at the protein level) early stage HER2-negative breast cancer |
| Secondary | 3-year DFS Stratified by TOP2A Among TC Arm | 3 years from randomization into study | To evaluate DFS among TC in TOP2A altered (amplified, deleted, or overexpressed at the protein level) early stage HER2-negative breast cancer. |
| Secondary | 3-year DFS Stratified by TOP2A Among TAC Arm | 3 years from randomization into study | To evaluate DFS among TAC in TOP2A altered (amplified, deleted, or overexpressed at the protein level) early stage HER2-negative breast cancer. |
