Elvina Almuradova: MSKCC Study Sheds Light on Treatment of HER2+ Node-Negative Breast Cancer
Elvina Almuradova, Associate Professor of Oncology at the European Institute of Oncology, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“A recent MSKCC study (n=213) sheds light on one of oncology’s more nuanced challenges — how to treat patients with microinvasive, HER2+ node-negative breast cancer.
Key findings:
No difference in invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) between patients with 1–4 vs. ≥5 microinvasive foci
No clear iDFS benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy + HER2-targeted therapy (CT/H2TT) in patients with ≥5 foci
And yet, prognosis was excellent overall, with a 5-year iDFS of 95%
More treatment ≠ , better outcome?”
