In the primary analysis of the open-label phase III PRECIOUS study, pertuzumab retreatment combined with trastuzumab plus chemotherapy of physician's choice (PTC) significantly improved investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) compared with trastuzumab plus physician's choice chemotherapy (TC) in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive locally advanced/metastatic breast cancer (LA/mBC). Here, we report final overall survival (OS) at the median follow-up of 25.8 months.

Despite the availability of validated tools to measure FT, a simple screen remains an unmet need. We evaluated item 12 ("My illness has been a financial hardship to my family and me") of the COmprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity (COST) measure as a single-item FT screening measure.

Background: Most cancer survivors have multiple cardiovascular risk factors, increasing their risk of poor cardiovascular and cancer outcomes. The Automated Heart-Health Assessment (AH-HA) tool is a novel electronic health record clinical decision support tool based on the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics to promote CVH assessment and discussion in outpatient oncology. Before proceeding to future implementation trials, it is critical to establish the acceptability of the tool among providers and survivors.
