Eligibility Criteria
Study Population: Criteria: Age: Adult patients (≥18 years). Diagnosis: Confirmed diagnosis of unresectable or metastatic breast cancer (mBC). HER2 Status: Documented HER2-low status. Treatment Decision: Patients for whom the decision to initiate trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) treatment has been made independently and prior to enrolment in the study. Enrollment: Timing: Patients must be enrolled within 30 days before the administration of the first T-DXd infusion. Consent: Patients must provide written informed consent for data collection.
You may qualify if:
- Adult patient (age ≥18 years) with histological or cytological confirmed diagnosis of unresectable or mBC.
- Documented HER2-low status (IHC1+, IHC2+/ISH-) in patients who have received prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting or documented HER2-low status (IHC 1+, IHC 2+/ISH-) in patients who have developed disease recurrence during or within 6 months of completing adjuvant chemotherapy.
- Recent prior decision to initiate therapy of T-DXd per SmPC (up to 30 days). Documentation confirming this decision will be required and collected.
- Able and willing to provide informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- History of other primary malignancies in 2 years prior to unresectable or mBC diagnosis.
- Patients who at time of data collection for this study are participating in or have participated in an interventional study that remains blinded.
- HER2-low status patients who have previously documented HER2+ status in the same tumor.
