Zanidatamab before Surgery for the Treatment of Early Stage HER2/Neu Positive Breast Cancer
This phase II trial tests whether zanidatamab works to shrink tumors in patients with early stage her2-neu positive breast cancer. Zanidatamab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

Male subjects must agree not to donate sperm and female subjects must agree not to donate oocytes starting at screening and throughout the study period, and for at least 7 months after treatment discontinuation
- Patient with reproductive potential must have a negative pregnancy test =< 3 days prior to the first dose of zanidatamab
Exclusion Criteria
- Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study
- Prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen
- Has received therapy for this current diagnosis of BC including investigational therapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, or chemotherapy, surgery or radiation
- Mean QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) >= 470 ms
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, active peptic ulcer disease or gastritis, active bleeding diatheses, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements or compromise the ability of the patient to give written informed consent
- Female patients who are pregnant, breast-feeding, or of reproductive potential who are not employing an effective method of birth control
- Patients with uncontrolled seizures
- Any major surgery for any reason, within 4 weeks of the enrollment. Portacath placement will be allowed
- Clinically significant cardiac disease such as ventricular arrhythmia requiring therapy, myocardial infarction, unstable angina (within 6 months prior to first dose of study drug), any history of cardiac failure, and uncontrolled hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure > 150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure > 100 mmHg on antihypertensive medications)
- Known active hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C. Hepatitis testing is not required unless the patient has a history of hepatitis B or C
- Known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive. HIV testing is not required for those patients who are not known to be positive
- Total lifetime anthracycline load exceeding 360 mg/m^2 doxorubicin or equivalent
- Any condition that requires systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (> 10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medication =< 14 days prior to treatment. Note: Subjects who are currently or have previously been on any of the following steroid regimens are not excluded: * Adrenal replacement steroid (dose =< 10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent) * Topical, ocular, intra-articular, intranasal, or inhaled corticosteroid with minimal systemic absorption * Short course (=< 7 days) of corticosteroid prescribed prophylactically (e.g., for contrast dye allergy) or for the treatment of a non-autoimmune condition (e.g., delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction caused by contact allergen)
- History of life-threatening hypersensitivity to monoclonal antibodies or to recombinant proteins or excipients in the drug formulation
- Known distant metastatic disease including (CNS) metastases, symptomatic CNS metastases, and leptomeningeal disease (LMD)
- Acute or chronic uncontrolled renal disease, pancreatitis, or liver disease (with exception of subjects with Gilbert’s syndrome, asymptomatic gall stones, liver metastases, or stable chronic liver disease per investigator assessment)
- Symptomatic pulmonary embolism =< 28 days
- Administered a live vaccine =< 4 weeks prior to randomization. Patients can get coronavirus disease (COVID) vaccine that are not alive before or during the study period, with 48 hours between vaccine administration and investigation agent administration

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To determine the efficacy of zanidatamab for patients with early stage HER2/neu positive (HER2+) breast cancer (BC) as determined by pathologic complete response (pCR).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine pathologic response by residual cancer burden (RCB).
II. To evaluate the radiographic response and volumetric change in tumor size by ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
III. To evaluate tolerability and safety of zanidatamab for treatment-naive early stage HER2+ breast cancer (BC).
IV. To evaluate the rate of adverse events and treatment-emergent adverse events with zanidatamab alone (for patients with hormone receptor negative tumors) or with endocrine therapy tamoxifen or letrozole (in hormone receptor positive tumors).
V. To evaluate the feasibility of treating patients with early stage HER2+ breast cancer with monotherapy zanidatamab.
VI. To determine tumor-based predictive biomarkers of response.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess circulating free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) levels and dynamics as biomarkers of response.
II. To assess effect of zanidatamab on immune environment.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive zanidatamab intravenously (IV) over 60-150 minutes on days 1 and 15. Patients with estrogen receptor positive tumors who are postmenopausal also receive letrozole orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Patients with estrogen receptor positive tumors who are male or premenopausal also receive tamoxifen PO QD on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 3 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 2-8 days after completion of cycle 3, patients undergo surgery.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up within 7-21 days of surgery and at 1 month after surgery.
