HER2DX Genomic Assay in HER2-Positive Early Breast Cancer Treated with Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab: A Correlative Analysis from the PHERGain Phase II Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to assess the predictive capability of HER2DX assay following (neo)adjuvant trastuzumab-pertuzumab (HP)-based therapy in HER2-positive (HER2+) early breast cancer.

Experimental design

HER2DX was analyzed in baseline pretreatment tumors from the PHERGain trial. Patients with stage I-IIIA HER2+ early breast cancer were randomized to group A [docetaxel, carboplatin, and HP (TCHP)] and group B (HP ± endocrine therapy). PET response was evaluated after two cycles. Group A received TCHP for six cycles regardless of PET response. Group B continued with HP ± endocrine therapy for six cycles (PET responders) or with TCHP for six cycles (PET nonresponders). The primary objective of this retrospective study was to associate the HER2DX pathologic co
