RNA-Seq Data From Early Stage Triple Negative Breast Cancer Tumors Treated With TVEC and Chemotherapy (MCC18621)

This study is a phase 1/phase 2 trial testing the combination of talimogene laherparepvec (TVEC) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy for the treatment of stage II-III triple negative breast cancer. The trial demonstrated that the addition of TVEC to neoadjuvant chemotherapy was feasible, and resulted in a pathological complete response (pCR) rate of 45.9%, residual cancer burden (RCB) 0-1 rate of 65%, and event free survival of 89%. The macrodissected formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples were from 50 patients treated across two phases at different timepoints (pre-treatment, 6th week of treatment, and surgical resection). RNA-Seq data is provided along with clinical classifiers.]]>
