Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This multicountry, multicenter, retrospective, non-interventional study involving patients diagnosed with HER2-positive unresectable or metastatic breast cancer mBC will be conducted to understand the demographic and clinico-pathological profile of the patients, diagnostic practices for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status, current treatment landscape and sequencing of therapies, associated burden of toxicities with all lines of treatment (LOTs), and survival outcomes in the real-world setting.

Arms and outcomes
Arms (1)
- label
- Retrospective
- description
- Patients who are diagnosed with HER2-positive unresectable or mBC and have received at least 1 LOT in the advanced setting will be included. Approximately a total of 570-830 patients will be enrolled in the study.
- interventionNames
- Other: None (Observational study)
Primary outcomes (3)
- measure
- Percentage of patients receiving each treatment regimen with or without hormonal therapy in each LOT
- timeFrame
- Retrospective: from date of first diagnosis of unresectable or mBC (01 January 2017) to the end of follow-up (i.e., until death, the last medical record entry, or date of data extraction, whichever is the earliest) [Approximately 12 Months]
- description
- Assessment of treatment patterns in patients diagnosed with HER2-positive unresectable or mBC. Line of treatment (LOT) is defined as one regimen, possibly a combination of several drugs, given from either the index diagnosis or disease progression until the treatment fails to control the disease, is not tolerated by the patient, the disease relapses/progresses, or death occurs.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult female or male patients ≥18 years old or 'adults' according to the age of majority as defined by the local regulations * Patient or next of kin/legal representative willing and able to provide written informed consent according to the local regulations unless a waiver is granted by the local IRB/IEC/EC * Patients' medical records showing a diagnosis of HER2-positive unresectable or mBC (can be either de novo advanced disease, progression or recurrence of previous early-stage HER2-positive BC) since the available date of T-DM1 (Kadcyla) through reimbursement or patient access programme as a valid local treatment option or 01 January 2017, whichever is earlier and with the availability of at least 12 months of follow-up data (from the date of diagnosis of unresectable or mBC) in the medical records at the participating site, unless patient died within the first 12 months of diagnosis * Patients completing at least 1 LOT for HER2-positive unresectable or mBC Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with HER2-negative unresectable or mBC at index diagnosis * Patients with a change in HER2 status from positive to negative at the progression from early-stage to advanced-stage disease (ie, shown on a repeat biopsy at diagnosis of advanced-stage disease) will be excluded (patients who change from HER2-positive to negative on repeat biopsy during treatment for advanced-stage disease may be included) * Patients with concomitant cancer at the time of diagnosis of HER2-positive unresectable or mBC except for the non-metastatic non-melanoma skin cancers, or in situ, or benign neoplasms; a cancer is considered concomitant if it occurs within 5 years of HER2-positive breast cancer diagnosis * Patients who at the time of data collection for this study are participating or have participated in an interventional study that remains blinded
