Unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative (hormone-receptor–negative and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 [HER2]–negative) breast cancer is an aggressive disease with poor outcomes. Nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)–paclitaxel may enhance the anticancer activity of atezolizumab.

A phase 2 study showed that progression-free survival was longer with palbociclib plus letrozole than alone in the initial treatment of postmenopausal women estrogen-receptor (ER)–positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2)–negative advanced breast cancer. We performed a 3 designed to confirm and expand efficacy safety data for this indication.

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 that inhibits dimerization, has a mechanism action is complementary to trastuzumab, and combination therapy two antibodies shown promising activity acceptable safety profile phase studies involving

Among breast cancers without human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) amplification, overexpression, or both, a large proportion express low levels of HER2 that may be targetable. Currently available HER2-directed therapies have been ineffective in patients with these "HER2-low" cancers.

Patients who have residual invasive carcinoma after the receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer poor prognoses. The benefit adjuvant in these patients remains unclear.We randomly assigned 910 with HER2-negative (containing anthracycline, taxane, or both) to receive standard postsurgical treatment either capecitabine without (control). primary end point was disease-free survival.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201) is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of anti-HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) antibody, a cleavable tetrapeptide-based linker, and cytotoxic topoisomerase I inhibitor. In phase 1 dose-finding study, majority the patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer had response to trastuzumab (median duration, 20.7 months). The efficacy in metastatic previously treated emtansine requires confirmation.In this two-part, open-label, single-group,...

The cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor palbociclib, in combination with fulvestrant therapy, prolongs progression-free survival among patients hormone-receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer. We report the results of a prespecified analysis overall survival. randomly assigned HER2-negative cancer who had progression or relapse during previous endocrine therapy to receive palbociclib plus placebo fulvestrant. analyzed...

Trastuzumab emtansine is the current standard treatment for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer whose disease progresses after a combination of anti-HER2 antibodies and taxane.We conducted phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized trial to compare efficacy safety trastuzumab deruxtecan (a HER2 antibody-drug conjugate) those in HER2-positive previously treated taxane. The primary end point was progression-free survival (as...

This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and its downstream signaling on response survival in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with gefitinib.For 90 consecutive NSCLC who had received gefitinib, EGFR analyzed by DNA sequencing exons 18, 19, 21, 23 tyrosine kinase domain. Expressions phosphorylated (p) -Akt p-Erk were determined via immunohistochemistry. Response rate, time progression (TTP), overall compared...
