Abstract: After a 47-month median follow-up, 1 year of trastuzumab given sequentially after adjuvant chemotherapy was not associated with a statistically significant decrease in the risk of relapse.

“…In the HERA and PHARE (Protocol for Herceptin as Adjuvant therapy with Reduced Exposure) trials, longer duration of therapy was associated with higher rates of cardiotoxicity 12, 38, 39. Rates of cardiotoxicity appear to be similar when trastuzumab is added to chemotherapy containing epirubicin as opposed to doxorubicin 40, 41, 42, 43. In a meta‐analysis of adjuvant trastuzumab trials published by the Cochrane group in 2012, there were 135 cases (2.5%) of HF of 5471 patients in the trastuzumab groups compared with 20 cases (0.4%) of 4810 in the control groups, yielding a statistically significant relative risk of 5.1 for development of HF in patients treated with the monoclonal antibody.…”

“…Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression is present in 15%-20% of new breast cancer cases.Trastuzumab is a monoclonal antibody against the HER2 receptor. Its effectiveness and safety in patients with a HER2-positive tumor in the adjuvant setting has been confirmed in six phase III studies [2][3][4][5][6]. In The Netherlands, the price of trastuzumab is approximately 40,000 Euros per patient per year of treatment [7].…”

“…Ainsi, nous avons montré dans le contexte du traitement du cancer du sein [6] que plusieurs des participantes à un essai qui évaluait l'efficacité du trastuzumab administré comme adjuvant, ont confondu les résultats de cet essai -non significatifs [17] -avec ceux d'essais précédents montrant une avancée thérapeutique significative [18,19]. De plus, ces patientes pensaient avoir été confortées dans cette interprétation par leurs médecins, qui étaient particulièrement favorables à cette molécule.…”
