A Review of HER2-Targeted Therapy in Breast and Ovarian Cancer: Lessons from Antiquity – CLEOPATRA and PENELOPE

Abstract: Although breast and ovarian cancer have notable distinctions, there may exist parallel pathways that can be exploited for therapeutic gain. For example, the therapeutic arena in breast cancer has benefited greatly from available endocrine therapies as well as novel drugs designed to target the HER2 receptor, including trastuzumab, lapatinib, T-DM1 and pertuzumab. CLEOPATRA, a Phase III randomized clinical trial studying pertuzumab in women with HER2-amplified metastatic breast cancer, was practice-changing in … Show more

“… 28 In ovarian cancer, low HER3 mRNA levels represented a more sensitive phenotype for the HER2 dimerization blocking mAb pertuzumab and gemcitabine treatment. 29 Identification of tumor HER3 levels and heterogeneity might therefore pose an attractive option for patient stratification. The highly specific tumor uptake in our study indicates that changes and variation in HER3 expression might be sensitively assessed using a humanized version of 89 Zr-mAb3481 for HER3 PET.…”

“…Defining patient subgroups, being person-based rather than variable-based, can help target treatments towards those people who are most likely to benefit [5]. Treatments of some tumours are already stratified according to molecular profiles [16], and research is underway to stratify RA therapies on the basis of inflammatory mechanisms [17, 18]. Identifying patient subgroups in which outcomes are determined by factors other than inflammation might improve allocation of both immunomodulatory therapies and adjunctive pain management strategies [5].…”

“…Especially, TNXB and ERBB2 are not identified for any cancer by BLP. Actually, ERBB2 is a well-known cancer gene, and it plays a crucial role for certain subtypes of BRCA and OV patients [43], [44]. Third, it is important to note that the individual cancer type approach can only discover a small part of the common gene set for each cancer type ( Fig.…”
