Trial of Pre-operative Neratinib and Endocrine Therapy With Trastuzumab in ER-Positive, HER-2 Positive Breast Cancers

Is NCT04886531 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (Jun 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies multiple treatments including Neratinib and Letrozole (L) or Anastrozole (A) for breast cancer.

Phase 2RecruitingRuth O'ReganNCT04886531Data as of Jun 2026

Treatment: Neratinib · Letrozole (L) or Anastrozole (A) · TrastuzumabPatient will be treated with neratinib, an aromatase inhibitor and trastuzumab for 24 weeks prior to surgery, following an initial 3 weeks of neratinib alone, aromatase inhibitor alone or the combination of neratinib and an aromatase inhibitor. A breast biopsy will be performed prior to Day 1 of week 4 of treatment. Following surgery, patients will receive standard of care HER2-directed and endocrine therapy at the treating physician's discretion.
