Treatment of metastatic HER2 positive breast cancer in young patient with very advanced disease – case report
04/2019 MUDr. Markéta Protivánková; MUDr. Dagmar Brančíková, Ph.D.; MUDr. Jiří Vašina
Although the percentage of patients diagnosed in the early stage of the disease is increasing after the introduction of breast cancer screening, a large group of patients still have metastatic breast cancer. Advanced HER2 positive breast cancer has been therapeutically difficult to treat with adverse prognosis until the introduction of targeted anti-HER2 therapy, and its therapy has been complicated by a number of possible side effects and considerable toxicity. Our case report describes a case of a 42-year-old patient who had HER2 positive breast cancer diagnosed at a very advanced stage of the disease. After the use of dual-block treatment with concomitant administration of trastuzumab and pertuzumab, a high-quality and long-term response of the disease was achieved in which the quality of life of the patient significantly increased. At the same time, this treatment was very well tolerated.
