Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • HER2-positive, advanced (unresectable locally advanced or metastatic) breast cancer
  • Prior treatment with trastuzumab deruxtecan(T-DXd) in the advanced setting
  • Intention to treat with Trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) as first therapy upon T-DXd progression

Exclusion criteria

  • Any systemic treatment, other than T-DM1, for breast cancer after trastuzumab deruxtecan (As an exception, patients treated with endocrine agents, not in combination with cytotoxics or antibody-drug conjugates, will be permitted in the study)
  • Has been previously treated with T-DM1 for advanced breast cancer
  • Has been previously treated with 4 or more lines of therapy for advanced breast cancer
  • Half (50%) or more patients will be those who were treated with second-line trastuzumab deruxtecan (i.e. patients at the later line will be capped).

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. progression-free survival (PFS)

    Time frame: PFS is defined as the time from treatment initiation to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 12 months.

    PFS will be assessed by physicians as per routine clinical practice. CT and/or MRI scans will be at baseline and every 2-4 cycles at the treating physician's discretion, reflecting the observational study design.

Secondary outcomes

  1. objective response rate (ORR)

    Time frame: 12-month

    • objective response rate (ORR)
  2. 12-month survival rate

    Time frame: 12-month

    12-month survival rate

  3. time-to-discontinuation (TTD)

    Time frame: 12-month

    time-to-discontinuation (TTD)

  4. time-to-next-line-treatment (TTNT)

    Time frame: 12-month

    time-to-next-line-treatment (TTNT), disregarding endocrine treatments as the maintenance

  5. Duration of therapy (DoT)

    Time frame: 12-month

    Duration of therapy (of T-DM1) will be compared to the duration of previous therapy (T-DXd) to ensure the comparability of each treatments reflecting the tumor biology and clinical course.

  6. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Time frame: 12-month

    Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
