MARGOT Trial Summary

This trial is testing two different combinations of drugs to see how well they work in treating HER2-positive stage II-III breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with stage II-III HER2-positive breast cancer, who haven't had invasive breast cancer in the past 5 years or any treatment for their current cancer. Participants must have proper organ function and a specific genetic profile (CD16 FF/FV). Women of childbearing age need a negative pregnancy test and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The MARGOT study tests how well patients respond to pre-surgery drug combinations: Paclitaxel with Pertuzumab plus either Margetuximab or Trastuzumab. The goal is to compare these two regimens' effectiveness in treating early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include allergic reactions, fatigue, nausea, hair loss from Paclitaxel; heart issues from Trastuzumab; infusion-related reactions from both Margetuximab and Pertuzumab. Side effects can vary based on individual health conditions.
