New drug aims to stop breast cancer return in women with gene mutations

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Female 18-75 years * ECOG 0-1 * Histologically confirmed invasive carcinoma (regardless of pathological type) * No gross or microscopic residual tumor after surgical resection * For triple-negative early breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant therapy (at least 6 cycles of chemotherapy), postoperative pathological assessment of non-pCR is required; for ER and/or PgR-positive and HER2-negative early breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant therapy (at least 6 cycles of chemotherapy or endocrine therapy), postoperative pathological assessment of non-pCR and ypLN + is required; for triple-negative early breast cancer not receiving neoadjuvant therapy, postoperative pathological assessment of ≥ pT2 or ≥ pN1 is required; for ER and/or PgR-positive and HER2-negative early breast cancer not receiving neoadjuvant therapy, postoperative pathological assessment of ≥ 4 positive lymph nodes or 1-3 positive lymph nodes with high-risk factors (tumor diameter ≥ 5 cm, or histological grade 3, or Ki-67 ≥ 30%) is required * Carrying pathogenic or possibly pathogenic mutations in BARD1/BRIP1/EXO1/FANCM/NBN/PALB2/PARP1/PARP2/POLQ/RAD50/RAD51/RAD51B/RAD51C/RAD51D/RAD52/RAD54L/RE/QL5/RFC1/RPA1/TOP3A/TOP3B/BLM germline genes confirmed by second-generation sequencing or first-generation sanger sequencing Exclusion Criteria: * Bilateral breast cancer or carcinoma in situ DCIS/LCIS; * Metastases at any site; * contralateral breast clinical or imaging suspected malignant but not confirmed, need biopsy; * Treated for advanced disease; * Patients who have received tamoxifen, raloxifene, or aromatase inhibitors (AIs) to reduce the risk of breast cancer ("chemoprevention") and/or who have previously undergone prophylactic ovariectomy within 2 years; * Malignant tumor (except skin basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ) within 5 years, including contralateral breast cancer;
