Description

Patients with advanced HER2+ breast cancer on either (1) first-line trastuzumab/pertuzumab OR (2) second-line T-DM1 in the metastatic setting OR (3) adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy or T-DM1 with isolated intracranial recurrence will be included. Patients with de novo metastatic disease and brain metastases or isolated intracranial recurrence can enter upon initiation of maintenance trastuzumab/pertuzumab after chemotherapy if deemed necessary by treating oncologist and meeting other inclusion criteria. Patients with 1st or 2nd intracranial disease event (brain metastases) and stable extracranial disease will be enrolled. Third intracranial progression would be considered if > 12 month interval between second and third intracranial progression. They will receive local therapy with stereotactic radiosurgery ± surgical resection followed by enrollment. Patients will continue standard of care treatment trastuzumab/pertuzumab or T-DM1 with the addition of tucatinib. Hormone receptor-positive patients requiring endocrine therapy should continue.

Study treatment will continue until intercranial disease progression or intolerable side effects. Patients with extracranial disease progression while on trial with stable intracranial disease should continue tucatinib into the next line of therapy as described in protocol. If a subject continues tucatinib into the next line therapy they are still considered on study treatment and will be monitored according to the protocol. Cycles will continue consecutively and not restart. Once the subject comes off tucatinib they are considered off study treatment and will enter the follow up period.
