About this trial

The goal of this observational study is to assess the prognostic value of a genomic classifier (S18) and its refined version (S\*) in women with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer. The study aims to determine whether these tools can predict event-free (EFS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients treated with neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapies.

Disqualifiers
