De-escalation of treatment for HER2+ breast cancer is a priority, given the increase in cure rates owing in part to improved HER2-targeted therapies. In this regard, the neoadjuvant approach provides the ideal platform to test less-intensive treatment regimens. Here we highlight a study that demonstrated the role of the metabolic response after dual HER2 blockade as a method of selecting patients who are most likely to benefit from chemotherapy-free neoadjuvant therapy.

Abstract

De-escalation of treatment for HER2+ breast cancer is a priority, given the increase in cure rates owing in part to improved HER2-targeted therapies. In this regard, the neoadjuvant approach provides the ideal platform to test less-intensive treatment regimens. Here we highlight a study that demonstrated the role of the metabolic response after dual HER2 blockade as a method of selecting patients who are most likely to benefit from chemotherapy-free neoadjuvant therapy.
