Study Summary

This trial is looking at using copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab-labeled PET to help plan better treatment for women with HER2-positive breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread beyond the original tumor and axilla. They must have a biopsy confirming metastasis, not received trastuzumab in the last 2 months, and have at least one non-liver metastatic site over 2 cm. Participants need normal heart function and can't be pregnant or unable to consent.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a PET scan using copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab to see if it helps plan better treatments for breast cancer. It includes laboratory biomarker analysis, immunohistochemistry staining method, mutation analysis, and biopsies to assess the cancer's characteristics.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed for this diagnostic trial, potential risks may include reactions to tracers used in PET scans such as discomfort or bruising from injections, allergic reactions or exposure to radiation.
