Abstract P3-17-10: The impact of the presence of ductal carcinoma in situ in patients with invasive ductal carcinoma

Conclusion: In patients with HER2-positive breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant dose-dense AC and THP followed by completion of anti-HER2 therapy in adjuvant setting, the overall rate of NYHA Class III/IV heart failure was comparable to rates reported in trials of sequential doxorubicin and trastuzumab. Our findings do not suggest an increased risk of cardiotoxicity when pertuzumab is added to trastuzumab following a doxorubicin-based regimen.Citation Format: Xu L, Monga V, Thomas A, Leone JP.
