Description

Zhong Wang and colleagues compare two follow-up treatments for HER2-positive breast cancer in a 2026 real-world study from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. Their group covers 184 people who still had invasive disease after drug treatment given before surgery, in records from 2019 to 2022.

One group received T-DM1 and the other received trastuzumab plus pertuzumab, with disease-free survival as the main measure. Disease progressed in fewer T-DM1 patients, and some higher-risk groups seemed to gain more, though the overall gap was not firm in statistical terms. Low platelet counts at a severe grade were more common with T-DM1, and no deaths were linked to treatment in either group.
