Anbenitamab (a ERBB2-biparatopic antibody that induces profound receptor clustering) and HB1801 (a solvent-free albumin-bound docetaxel), have shown promising antitumor activity and an acceptable safety profile in patients with breast cancer.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>To evaluate whether neoadjuvant anbenitamab combined with HB1801 could improve efficacy without increasing toxic effects for patients with early ERBB2-positive breast cancer.</p><p><strong>Design, setting, and participants: </strong>This multicenter, phase 3 registrational randomized clinical trial enrolled patients with stage II or III ERBB2-positive breast cancer from 61 hospitals in China between December 19, 2024, and August 29, 2025 (data cutoff: January 28, 2026). Data were analyzed from February 1 to March 20, 2026.</p><p><strong>Interventions: </strong>Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive 6 cycles of neoadjuvant anbenitamab plus HB1801, with or without carboplatin (investigational group), or trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and docetaxel, with or without carboplatin (control group).</p><p><strong>Main outcomes and measures: </strong>The primary end point was total pathological complete response (tpCR) assessed by a blinded independent review committee.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Among 521 included patients (median [IQR] age, 52.0 [23-79] years), 263 were randomized to the investigational group and 258 to the control group. The tpCR rate was significantly higher in the investigational group than the control group (164 patients [62.4%] vs 132 patients [51.2%]; absolute difference, 11.4 [95% CI, 3.2 to 19.6] percentage points; P = .004). Benefit was consistent across subgroups, including subgroups with hormone receptor-positive disease (77 patients [51.7%] vs 63 patients [44.4%]), hormone receptor-negative disease (87 patients [76.3%] vs 69 patients [59.5%]), early-stage disease (111 patients [63.8%] vs 87 patients [51.8%]), locally advanced disease (53 patients [59.6%] vs 45 patients [50.0%]), with carboplatin treatment (74 patients [66.7%] vs 61 patients [54.5%]), and without carboplatin treatment (90 patients [59.2%] vs 71 patients [48.6%]). Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 77 patients (29.3%) in the investigational group and 73 patients (28.3%) of the control group. No treatment-related deaths occurred.</p><p><strong>Conclusions and relevance: </strong>This randomized clinical trial found that neoadjuvant anbenitamab and HB1801 in patients with breast cancer significantly improved the tpCR rate compared with standard therapy with a highly manageable safety profile. This new combination may offer an improved treatment option, although long-term survival follow-up analyses are warranted.</p><p><strong>Trial registration: </strong>ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier","PeriodicalId":48661,"journal":{"name":"Jama Oncology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":20.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13543038/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148888883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
