Filter by:Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has been studied in multiple global prospective DESTINY-Breast trials and has a marketing authorization from Health Canada for patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC) and HER2-low mBC, respectively. Multiple stakeholders, including clinicians, patients, regulators, and healthcare decision makers, are interested in real-world treatment-related outcomes in order to better represent the effectiveness of therapies in routine care settings.
HER2 gene amplification, detected in 20% to 30% of breast cancers, was a poor prognostic factor before the advent of anti-HER2 therapies. In the early 2000s, trastuzumab revolutionised the management of patients with HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer in the metastatic and localised stages of the disease. At the time of diagnosis of metastatic disease, 7-11% of patients have brain metastases, with (70% of cases) or without symptoms (30% of cases). In the absence of brain metastases, 30% to 50% of patients will develop brain metastases within the first two years of treatment, depending on whether the disease is hormone receptor positive (HR+) or negative (HR-). The presence of brain metastases is the most important prognostic factor. The neurological symptoms caused by the presence of these lesions, but also by the local treatments offered, affect patients' quality of life, although improvements in surgical and radiotherapy techniques have significantly reduced the need for particularly toxic whole brain radiotherapy. International guidelines do not recommend systematic brain MRI in the absence of neurological symptoms, either in the adjuvant or metastatic stages of this disease. However, there may be a role for more systematic and earlier screening for cerebral recurrence, as single cerebral recurrences without extracranial involvement are common and the new anti-HER2 agents (i.e. tucatinib, an anti-HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and T-Dxd) have shown significant objective response rates in cerebral metastases. To date, no clinical or histological prognostic factor (proliferation index, HR expression, etc.) has been used to identify a population of patients at high risk of cerebral relapse, allowing monitoring and treatment to be personalised. New tools for these indications would significantly modify our clinical practice, allowing the identification of a subpopulation at high risk of cerebral recurrence, suitable for increased monitoring and therapeutic adjustment.
Doctors leading this study would like to learn about providing cancer treatment/therapies to Nigerian women with breast cancer based on their human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status. This study will focus on the efficacy and safety of anti-HER2 cancer treatment before and after surgery.
This study is a registered phase III, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BL-M07D1 in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who had failed previous treatment with taxanes and trastuzumab.
A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of DP303c versus trastuzumab emtansine in patients with HER2-positive Advanced Breast Cancer
This study is intended to carry out a single arm, prospective, open clinical study, and use Darsilide combined with endocrine therapy, Trastuzumab and Patuzumab to treat early or locally advanced breast cancer of TPBC before surgery. It is intended to further explore the efficacy and safety of the new adjuvant treatment for TPBC patients with step-down therapy.
DEMETHER is a phase II trial exploring the maintenance of trastuzumab and pertuzumab fixed dose combination (FDC) for subcutaneous administration (SC, PHESGO) following trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) as induction treatment for HER2-positive unresectable locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients.
The purpose of this study is to test if four different programs (prolonged overnighting fasting alone, exercise alone, a combination of prolonged overnight fasting and exercise, or general health education sessions alone) can reduce fatigue in women with advanced or metastatic breast cancer who are receiving a medication called a cyclin-dependent kinases-4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor.
This study aims to identify HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer patients who could benefit from neoadjuvant treatment using PHESGO™ (pertuzumab and trastuzumab) without chemotherapy. The approach involves utilizing specific biomarkers (HR and HER2 IHC status) to select participants whose tumors strongly rely on the HER2 pathway, potentially benefiting from a HER2-targeted approach without chemotherapy concurrently.
The study will include patients with HER2-positive breast cancer and 1- 3 distant metastatic lesions, all amenable for curative intervention. Patients will be stratified by prior therapy and ER expression. In the initial baskets patients with be treated with trastuzumab-deruxtecan. Patients are treated with T-DXd 5.4mg/kg on a three weekly (21 day) basis, with the goal of 16 cycles leading to a treatment period of year, including local treatment. The first 8 cycles of T-DXd are administered neo-adjuvant, and 8 cycles adjuvant, after completion of local treatment. The proposed M22BOL trial is based on an important knowledge gap for regarding breast cancer patients with 'oligo-metastatic' disease who are usually not included in clinical trials for patients with metastatic disease since loco-regional treatments (radiation, surgery) with curative intent is not allowed in clinical trials for metastatic breast cancer. Moreover, neo-adjuvant trial protocols for early breast cancer exclude patients with distant metastases that can be treated with curative intent. This basket trial evaluates T-DXd for oligo-metastatic breast cancer with the goal to induce deep responses and subsequently long-lasting disease remissions and potentially cure.
