  • Objective

    To determine if the invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) with T-DM1 and tucatinib is superior to the iDFS in the control arm (T-DM1 + placebo) when administered to high-risk patients with HER2-positive breast cancer and residual disease after neoadjuvant HER2-directed therapy.

  • Key Eligibility

    -Not pregnant and not nursing, because this study involves an agent that has known genotoxic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects. Therefore, for women of childbearing potential only, a negative serum pregnancy test done ≤ 7 days prior to registration is required.
    -Age ≥ 18 years (male or female)
    - ECOG Performance Status 0-1
    -Adequate hepatic, renal, and bone marrow function
    -HER2-positive status will be based on pretreatment biopsy material and defined as an immunohistochemistry (IHC) score of 3+ and/or positive by in situ hybridization (ISH) according to current ASCO/CAP guidelines. Central testing is not required.
    -Patients with clinical stage T1-4, N0-3 disease at presentation and residual invasive disease postoperatively as defined above are eligible. (Note: Patients with T1a/bN0 tumors are not eligible).
    -Patients with residual HR-negative, HER2+ disease in the breast and/or lymph nodes per the surgical pathology report are eligible; however, patients with HR+ HER2+ cancers must have node-positive residual disease per the surgical pathology
    -Patients with synchronous bilateral invasive disease are eligible provided both lesions were confirmed to be HER2-positive, and at least one of the lesions meets the criteria outlined above. Multifocal disease is allowed, as long as the largest biopsied breast tumor was HER2-positive.
