About this trial
ADAPT-HER2-IV will address question of optimal neoadjuvant therapy in patients with less advanced -HER2+ EBC.
ADAPT-HER2-IV is planned as a superiority trial to demonstrate higher pCR rates in both clinically relevant subgroups of low-intermediate risk HER2+ EBC. Moreover, it aims to demonstrate excellent survival in patients treated by T-DXd (with the use of standard chemotherapy at investigator´s decision restricted only to patients with substantial residual tumour burden after T-DXd-treatment).
