Choosing adjuvant therapy for HER2 positive early breast cancer after initial treatment

Official title: A Cohort Study of Different Choice of Adjuvant Therapy in Non-PCR Patients With HER2 Positive Early Breast Cancer After Neoadjuvant Therapy

Run by Peking University People's Hospital · NCT06693037 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing whether a combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab works better than T-DM1 for people with HER2 positive breast cancer who still have cancer after their initial treatment.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are patients diagnosed with HER2 positive breast cancer who have undergone neoadjuvant therapy and have residual invasive cancer post-surgery.

Probably not a fit

Patients with metastatic breast cancer, bilateral breast cancer, or those who did not undergo radical surgery may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This study focuses on patients with HER2 positive breast cancer who have undergone neoadjuvant therapy with trastuzumab and pertuzumab but still have residual invasive cancer post-surgery. It aims to evaluate the effectiveness of different adjuvant therapies, specifically comparing a combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab versus T-DM1. The study will retrospectively recruit patients treated between January 2019 and November 2024 and prospectively recruit from December 2024 to December 2028. The goal is to improve prognosis and survival rates for this specific patient population.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to more effective adjuvant therapy options for patients with residual HER2 positive breast cancer, potentially improving their survival rates.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies have shown varying success with adjuvant therapies for HER2 positive breast cancer, but this specific approach is novel and aims to address gaps in current treatment guidelines.
