Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for people with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who are starting treatment with T-DXd. Participants will have their HER2 levels measured to see how well the treatment works for them.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am 18 years or older
I have been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer
I have a HER2 level of 1+ by immunohistochemistry
I have measurable disease by imaging
I have tissue samples available for testing
I intend to start T-DXd as my next treatment
I can provide informed consent
You may not be able to join if
I have metastatic breast cancer with a HER2 level of 2+ or 3+ confirmed by biopsy

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
* Women and men age \> 18 years

Inclusion Criteria:
* Women and men age \> 18 years
* Metastatic breast cancer, histologically- confirmed. Any estrogen receptor (ER) status is allowed. ER status will be determined by local laboratory assessment utilizing ASCO/CAP guidelines.
* Primary and/or metastatic tumor with 1+ level of expression of HER2 by immunohistochemistry as determined by local laboratory assessment utilizing ASCO/CAP guidelines.
* Measurable disease by cross-sectional imaging at the start of treatment. Patients with measurable bone-only disease or active brain metastases are eligible.
* Archival tissue available for biomarker assessment. One specimen should be the most recent metastatic biopsy. If HER2 1+ status was determined on a different specimen (either primary or metastatic tissue), that specimen is also required. Samples obtained from bone metastases that were processed via decalcification methods are not eligible.
* Intention to initiate therapy with T-DXd (Enhertu) at FDA-approved dose and schedule as next line of therapy. If T-DXd was already initiated, patients must be registered within 30 days of initiation.
* Ability to provide informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
* Concurrent Her2-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer (as confirmed by a metastatic biopsy with IHC 3+ or IHC 2+ with FISH amplified as per standard ASCO/CAP guidelines)
