Neoadjuvant Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab in Combination with Standard Chemotherapy for HER2-Positive Early Breast Cancer: Real-World Practice in Cuba.

Purpose: Dual HER2 blockade chemotherapy is the standard of care for localized HER2+ breast cancer (BC). However, despite the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy, relapses occurring in around 10% of patients highlight the need to improve its clinical approach. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness/safety of neoadjuvant therapy with subcutaneous (SC) trastuzumab- pertuzumab chemotherapy (real world) to extend the evidence, which comes mainly from clinical trials (selected population; intravenous [IV] trastuzumab).
