BettER: Biomarker Driven Early Therapeutic Selection in Patients With HR+ HER2- Metastatic or Unresectable Breast Cancer

This is a prospective study to assess the impact of biomarker driven, early therapeutic switching and delayed imaging with the incorporation of DiviTum® serum TK1 activity ("DiviTum® TKa") in patients with hormone receptor (HR) positive, HER-2 negative metastatic or unresectable breast cancer receiving first-line or second-line treatment.

DESTINY Breast Respond HER2-(Ultra)Low Europe

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) as monotherapy is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-low breast cancer who have received prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting or developed disease recurrence during or within 6 months of completing adjuvant chemotherapy. Based on the extended therapeutic indication of Trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu®), a new patient population will be enrolled, comprising adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HR-positive, HER2-low, or HER2-(ultra)low breast cancer who have received at least one endocrine therapy in the metastatic setting and are not considered suitable for endocrine therapy as the next line of treatment.

HER-TEMPO - Real World Treatment-related Outcomes on T-DXd in Canada

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.

Tucatinib and Trastuzumab in HER3-mutant and HER2-not Amplified Metastatic Breast Cancer

The H3RAKLES trial would allow patients with a progressive metastatic breast cancer to have access to one more line of systemic therapy. Patients included in this trial will have already received at least two lines of chemotherapy (and potentially several lines of endocrine therapy for patients with a HR+ disease). In this setting, few treatments have demonstrated a clinically meaningful benefit, and any additional option is valuable. Furthermore, the pre-clinical and clinical rationale indicate a high probability of clinical benefit, as previously shown in Table 1, with all patients treated with trastuzumab and a TKI targeting HER2 displaying a response. Besides, with several years of hindsight for the combination of lapatinib, trastuzumab and capecitabine, we expect excellent tolerance with the same treatment without capecitabine. The H3RAKLES single-arm phase II trial will evaluate the combination of tucatinib, a HER2 TKI, and trastuzumab, a HER2-directed antibody in patients with a HER2-not amplified metastatic or unresectable breast cancer harboring an activating ERBB3 mutation. To demonstrate the actionability of ERBB3 mutations, all patients will receive a combination of trastuzumab and tucatinib, in 3-weeks cycles.
