Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin combined with Toripalimab sequential chemotherapy as in patients with HR-positive, HER2-low breast cancer

Detailed description: This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin combined with Toripalimab sequential chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment in patients with HR-positive, HER2-low breast cancer

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Voluntarily agree to participate in the study and sign the informed consent;

Invasive breast tumor tissue with low HER2 expression confirmed by the central laboratory is defined as IHC 1+ or IHC 2+ expression of HER2 protein detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and no amplification detected by in situ hybridization (ISH) (according to the Breast Cancer HER2 Detection Guidelines 2019); Primary tumor specimens (wax pieces, slices or fresh tissues) can be provided for HER2 detection;
6. According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists (ASCO/CAP) 2020 guidelines, tumor tissue estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PgR) expression ≥ 1%;
7. Histological grade (Nottingham grading system) G3 or G2 with ER expression
