This study focuses on patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer. The research examines how well imaging with 89Zr-trastuzumab PET/CT (a special type of scan that shows detailed pictures of cancer cells) can help predict which treatments might work best. This type of breast cancer has high levels of a protein called HER2 on the surface of cancer cells.
The study uses several medications that target HER2-positive breast cancer. The main treatment being studied is trastuzumab emtansine (also known as T-DM1), which is given through an infusion into a vein. This medication combines two parts – one that targets cancer cells and another that helps destroy them. Another medication used in the study is Herceptin, which is also given through an infusion.
The purpose is to understand how cancer cells change after previous treatments and to see how well T-DM1 works in patients whose special scans show certain results. The study involves getting scans, blood tests, and tissue samples to examine the cancer in detail. Patients will receive treatment and be monitored to see how their cancer responds to the medication.
