Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with unresectable or metastatic breast cancer that is HER2-positive, HER2-low, or HER2-ultralow.

Probably not a fit

Patients with breast cancer that is resectable or those who do not meet the HER2 status criteria may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This prospective non-interventional study aims to observe patient-reported outcomes and real-world clinical data in individuals with HER2-positive, HER2-low, or HER2-ultralow unresectable or metastatic breast cancer receiving trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd). The study will enroll approximately 800 participants across multiple centers in Germany, with treatment and diagnostic procedures guided by the treating physician's discretion. Participants will also be informed about the use of a digital healthcare application to enhance their treatment experience.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the effectiveness and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan in real-world settings for patients with specific breast cancer subtypes.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success with similar observational approaches in understanding patient outcomes in cancer treatments.
