Dual HER2-targeted adjuvant therapies
On September 9, 2011, The independent data monitoring committee has indicated that the lapatinib alone arm is unlikely to meet the prespecified criteria to demonstrate non-inferiority to trastuzumab alone with respect to disease-free survival.
Small HER2-pos tumor: How much chemotherapy is necessary?
Chemotherapy Anthracyclines > CMF Taxanes added benefit to anthracyclines Trastuzumab Combined with chemotherapy 1y = standard (several studies ongoing) Timing of trastuzumab according to CT unclear Accepted: start with anthracyclines, then taxanes combined with trastuzumab Delayed trastuzumab still effective (HERA) Lapatinib not non-inferior compared to trastuzumab Dual HER2-targeted therapies awaiting results of ongoing trials Small HER+ tumors - some low risk tumors <2cm need less Adjuvant treatment in summary concomittant chemotherapy (12 weeks Paclitaxel) - unclear remains the relevance of the ER-status

Hernata: Trast/Doc versus Trast/Vin M. Andersson et al., J Clin Oncol 2011; 29, 264-271 Ph-lll, first line HER2+ Doc: 100mg/m 2 Nav: 30-35mg/m 2 More patients in the docetaxel arm discontinued therapy due to toxicity (P <.001). The study failed to demonstrate superiority of any drug in terms of efficacy, but the vinorelbine combination had significantly fewer adverse effects.
