Trastuzumab Deruxtecan Alone or in Combination With Anastrozole for the Treatment of Early Stage HER2 Low, Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer

Complete Title: A Phase II, Multicenter, Open-Label, 3-Arm Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) alone, with anastrozole, or in sequence with chemotherapy for HER2 Low Hormone Receptor Positive (HR+) Breast Cancer in the Neoadjuvant Setting
Trial Phase: II
Investigator: Sara Hurvitz

This phase II trial investigates how well trastuzumab deruxtecan works alone or in combination with anastrozole in treating patients with HER2 low, hormone receptor positive breast cancer. Trastuzumab deruxtecan is a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called deruxtecan. Trastuzumab attaches to HER2 expressed at low levels on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers deruxtecan to kill them. Anastrozole works by decreasing estrogen production and suppressing the growth of tumors that need estrogen to grow. This study is evaluating how effective trastuzumab deruxtecan is at treating hormone receptor positive cancer cells that have low levels of HER2 expressed on them when given alone or in combination with anastrozole.
