Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab work when given after surgery in treating patients with stage I-II human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2/neu) positive breast cancer (confined to the breast or the breast and lymph nodes under the arm). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab after surgery may help prevent the cancer from coming back.

- description
- SYSTEMIC THERAPY: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour, paclitaxel IV over 3 hours, and trastuzumab IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 14 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. MAINTENANCE TRASTUZUMAB THERAPY: Beginning in course 6, patients receive trastuzumab IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients may undergo radiation therapy at the discretion of the radiation oncologist and medical oncologist and patients with estrogen/progesterone receptor positive tumors receive hormonal therapy as determined by the medical oncologist per standard NCCN guidelines.
