Study Summary

This research is being done to determine if early changes on a type of imaging procedure called PET (Positron Emission Tomography) can predict which patients are most likely to respond to the combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab when given prior to surgery.

Primary Outcome

SULmax is the maximum SUV corrected for lean body mass. Change in SULmax from baseline to Day 15 on FDG PET in correlation with pathological complete response (pCR) in patients treated with preoperative pertuzumab/trastuzumab. pCR was defined as no viable invasive cancer in breast and axilla by local pathology review. SULmax was measured via spherical volume over the target primary breast cancer tissue.
