Completed
Conditions
Adjuvant Therapy
Breast Cancer
HER2-positive Breast Cancer
Registration Number
NCT05599334
Lead Sponsor
Pierre Fabre Medicament
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to describe the demographic and clinical profiles of patients with early-stage HER2+ breast cancer treated with neratinib as an extended adjuvant therapy as part of the Early Access Program (EAP) in Europe.

Detailed Description

Eligible patients were selected among those who had received at least one dose of neratinib in the context of the early access program conducted in Europe between 01 August 2017 and 31 December 2020 (the patient identification period) and residing in one of the five target following countries: Belgium, Croatia, France, Italy and Spain, which were part of the EAP. Patients were followed up until the end of the study observation period/study entry date (05 July 2022). As this study was retrospective, the decision to prescribe neratinib was taken prior to and independent of the proposal to select a patient for this study.

Pathologic Stage (AJCC Classification) of Breast CancerAt initial diagnosis

Higher is the stage worse is the cancer.

Stage is defined as:

1A: tumor (T) up to 2 cm + not spread outside the breast; no lymph nodes (LN).1B: Small clusters of cancer cells (CC) (0.2-2 mm) are found in LN, or T in the breast is \< 2 cm and small clusters of CC are found in LN. 2A: No T in the breast, but cancer is in 1-3 axillary LN or in LN near the breastbone or T is 2 cm or smaller + has spread to 1-3 axillary LN or LN near the breastbone, or T is \> 2 cm and \< 5 cm and not spread to LN.2B: T is \> 2 cm and \< 5 cm and has spread to 1-3 axillary LN or LN near the breastbone, or T is \> 5 cm and not spread to the LN. 3A: no T in the breast or the T is any size; cancer is found in 4-9 axillary LN or LN near the breastbone, or T is larger than 5 cm and small clusters of CC found in LN. 3B: T has spread to chest wall or breast skin + may have spread to up to 9 axillary LN. 3C: Cancer has spread to ≥10 axillary LN, LN near the collarbone, or LN near breastbone
