stage II and III luminal breast cancer as neo-adjuvant treatment
Study GEICAM is a multicenter, open label, non-randomized phase 2
trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nab-Paclitaxel in the
neoadjuvant treatment of ER positive HER2 negative patients
amenable to receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Studio GeparSepto
A randomized phase III trial comparing nanoparticle-based
paclitaxel with solvent-based paclitaxel as part of neoadjuvant
chemotherapy for patients with early breast cancer
Primary endpoint:
To compare pCR rates of neo-adjuvant treatment with nabpaclitaxel with solvent-based paclitaxel
Secondary endpoints:
Assess the pCR rates for stratified subgroups, Assess various pCR
rates, Determine response rates of breast tumor and axillary nodes,
Clinical remission rate by taxane use, Rate of breast conservative
surgery, Toxicity and compliance, Determine pCR and LRFS in
patients with a cCR and a negative core biopsy before surgery
