Pertuzumab plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel for metastatic breast cancer.
BACKGROUND The anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) humanized monoclonal antibody trastuzumab improves the outcome in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. However, most cases of advanced disease eventually progress. Pertuzumab, an anti-HER2 humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits receptor dimerization, has a mechanism of action that is complementary to that ...
متن کاملPertuzumab, trastuzumab, and docetaxel in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
BACKGROUND In patients with metastatic breast cancer that is positive for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), progression-free survival was significantly improved after first-line therapy with pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and docetaxel, as compared with placebo, trastuzumab, and docetaxel. Overall survival was significantly improved with pertuzumab in an interim analysis without the me...
متن کاملCardiac Safety of Paclitaxel Plus Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab in Patients With HER2-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer
INTRODUCTION Myocardial strain imaging and blood biomarkers have been proposed as adjuncts to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) monitoring for the early detection of cardiotoxicity during cancer therapy. We report the results of a preplanned cardiac safety analysis of global longitudinal strain (GLS), and troponin-I (TnI) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in the phase II study ...
متن کاملPertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
Overexpression of HER2 - found in approximately 15-20% of all breast cancers - is a negative prognostic factor. Although trastuzumab significantly improves the prognosis of HER2-positive breast cancer, half of the patients with metastatic breast cancer experience disease progression within 1 year. Pertuzumab is a novel HER2-targeted humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to the dimerization d...
متن کاملMode of action of pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab plus docetaxel therapy in a HER2-positive breast cancer xenograft model
In a Phase III trial for HER2-positive breast cancer (the CLEOPATRA study), the triple-drug combination arm of pertuzumab plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel showed significantly longer progression-free survival and overall survival than did the trastuzumab plus docetaxel arm. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of action of the triple-drug combination therapy in vivo. For this purpose, we...
