Who may be able to join
- Women aged 18 to 70 who have been diagnosed with breast carcinoma in situ (a very early form of breast cancer that has not spread beyond the breast ducts or lobules).
- The breast tumour measures at least 2cm, and testing has confirmed it is HER2-positive (meaning the cancer cells have high levels of a certain protein that promotes growth).
- There is no sign that the cancer has spread to distant parts of the body.
- No previous cancer treatment of any kind has been received.
- An imaging scan taken within 2 weeks before joining the trial showed at least one measurable area of cancer.
- The heart is pumping well, with a specific heart function measurement (called LVEF) of 50% or higher, as confirmed by an ultrasound of the heart.
- Any side effects from previous treatments have mostly resolved to a mild level, and certain liver-related blood test results are within acceptable ranges (confirm with trial site).
- Liver and kidney blood test results are within acceptable ranges: total bilirubin no more than 3 times the upper limit of normal, liver enzymes (ALT/AST) no more than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (or up to 5 times for those with liver involvement), and kidney function markers within normal limits.
- Blood counts are adequate: white blood cell count, neutrophil count (infection-fighting cells), and platelet count (clotting cells) all meet minimum levels required.
- Women who could become pregnant must agree to use contraception during the trial.
- The person is able to understand the study process, is willing to take part voluntarily, and agrees to sign a consent form.

- People whose bone marrow, kidney, or liver function does not meet the required levels.
- People with moderate or severe nerve damage in the hands or feet (grade 2 or higher peripheral neuropathy).
