Summary

This study tests a special PET scan that uses a radioactive tracer to detect HER2 protein on cancer cells. The goal is to see if this scan can better identify which patients with metastatic breast cancer will benefit from a targeted drug called T-DXd. About 70 women with advanced breast cancer will receive the scan and then treatment, and researchers will compare scan results to how well the tumor responds.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

A radioactive tracer called [68Ga]Ga-ABY-025 used in PET scans

What this could lead to

If successful, this imaging method could help doctors choose the right treatment for each patient, improving outcomes and reducing unnecessary side effects.

What could go wrong

This is an early exploratory study with only 70 participants. The scan may not reliably predict treatment response, and results may not apply to all patients.
