Summary
This study looked at whether rifaximin, a gut-focused antibiotic, could reduce stomach problems like pain, bloating, and diarrhea caused by pertuzumab-based chemotherapy in people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer. The goal was to help patients complete their cancer treatment without delays or dose cuts. The trial was terminated early, so results are limited.
