Summary

The introduction of trastuzumab for the treatment of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer has had a major impact upon cancer outcomes. However, cardiac toxicity remains a substantial concern. Conventionally, this toxicity has been considered as a transient and reversible phenomenon occurring in the immediate peri-treatment period in around 20% of patients. Current guidelines recommend monitoring heart function during treatment and at completion. Recent registry data suggest that trastuzumab-related cardiotoxicity may also manifest in the longer-term. The nature and longer-term prevalence of left ventricular dysfunction with HER2 positive breast cancer treated with trastuzumab is unclear. The aim of this project is to define the prevalence of left ventricular dysfunction late after completion of trastuzumab therapy.
