Abstract P6-12-08: Serum biomarkers identification using quantitative proteomics in patients with HER2-positive inflammatory breast cancer receiving trastuzumab plus bevacizumab-based chemotherapy (BEVERLY 2 trial)
Abstract:Background
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare but aggressive form of locally advanced breast cancer, the optimal systemic treatment of which is still discussed. Beverly 2 trial was a phase II study evaluating the efficacy and safety of a preoperative regimen associating bevacizumab, trastuzumab, and chemotherapy in 52 patients with non-metastatic HER2-positive IBC, reporting a promising rate of pathological complete response (pCR, 63.5%, 95% CI 49.4–77.5; Pierga et al, Lancet Oncol, 2012… Show more
