Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (panitumumab,pembrolizumab,neoajuvant chemotherapy)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions
CYCLES 1-4: Patients receive pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes and panitumumab IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of cycle 0. Cycle 0 continues for 7 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive panitumumab IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15 of cycles 1-3 and days 1 and 8 of cycle 4, pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1 of cycles 2-4, paclitaxel IV over 1-3 hours on days 1, 8, and 15 of cycles 1-4, and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on day 1, 8 and 15 of cycles 1-4. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
CYCLES 5-8: Patients receive standard of care treatment, including pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes, doxorubicin IV over 15 minutes and cyclophosphamide IV over 30 minutes on day 1 of each cycle.
