Study Overview

Brief Summary

This study gathers information from the blood cells and tumor tissue during treatment with anti-HER2 therapies, such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, lapatinib, or neratinib, in patients with HER2 positive stage I-IV breast cancer who are scheduled to start anti-HER2 therapy. The information gained from this study may help researchers better understand the relation between cell response and anti-HER2 therapies.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES I. To determine the correlation between HER2 specific T-cell response in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with stage I-IV who receive anti-HER2 therapies, such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, lapatinib, or neratinib and clinical responses.

II. To determine the correlation between antibody response in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with stage I-IV who receive anti-HER2 therapies, such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, lapatinib, or neratinib and clinical responses.

III. To determine the correlation between host immune response in tumor tissue in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with stage I-IV who receive anti-HER2 therapies, such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, lapatinib, or neratinib and clinical responses.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the proportion of patients who develop HER2-specific T cell and endogenous antibody responses.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age >= 18 years
  • Histological confirmed adenocarcinoma of the breast stage I-IV from the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging 8th edition
  • Any estrogen receptor (ER) or progesterone receptor (PR) but HER2 positive defined as per the most current American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)/College of American Pathologists (CAP) guideline
  • Provide written informed consent
  • Willingness to provide blood samples for correlative research purposes
  • BLOOD AND TISSUE COHORT: Scheduled to start new anti-HER2 therapy/therapies
  • TISSUE-ONLY COHORT: Received or previously completed anti-HER2 therapy/therapies

Exclusion Criteria

  • Immunocompromised patients including patients known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive
  • Receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other immunosuppressive therapy =< 30 days prior to registration. NOTE: Inhaled steroids, low-dose corticosteroids (e.g. equivalent to or less than oral prednisone 10 mg daily), and steroid use for primary prevention of nausea per institutional guidelines are allowed.

Arms & Interventions

Observational Blood & Tissue Cohort

Patients with stage I-III disease undergo collection of blood samples at baseline, 8 and 16 weeks after starting treatment, and at the time of invasive disease recurrence. Patients with stage IV disease undergo collection of blood samples at baseline, 8 and 16 weeks after starting treatment, and at the time of progressive disease. Patients with stage IV disease with no disease progression ≥ 2 years on the same line of therapy undergo collection of blood samples at baseline, 8 and 16 weeks after starting treatment, and at the time of invasive disease recurrence. For all patients, tissue samples from previous biopsy and/or surgical resection are also collected on study.

Intervention: Biospecimen Collection (Procedure)

Observational Tissue-Only Cohort

For patients with stage I-IV disease who received or previously completed anti-HER2 therapy, tissue samples from previous biopsy and/or surgical resection are collected on study.

Intervention: Biospecimen Collection (Procedure)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

HER2 specific T-cell response and clinical response

Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks

Defined as (1) a 2-fold or greater increase in HER2-specific T cells or HER2-specific antibodies at any point during treatment if pre-treatment levels of HER2-specific T cells or antibodies are detectable, or (2) HER2-specific T cells or HER2-specific antibodies at any point during treatment if pretreatment levels of HER-2 binding activity are non-detectable.

Antibody response and clinical response

Time Frame: Up to 16 weeks

Defined as (1) a 2-fold or greater increase in HER2-specific T cells or HER2-specific antibodies at any point during treatment if pre-treatment levels of HER2-specific T cells or antibodies are detectable, or (2) HER2-specific T cells or HER2-specific antibodies at any point during treatment if pretreatment levels of HER-2 binding activity are non-detectable.
