Safety profile of subcutaneous trastuzumab in patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer: The French HERmione non-interventional prospective study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesHERmione study was conducted to assess, in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive early breast cancer (eBC), the safety profile of subcutaneous (SC) formulation of trastuzumab in real-life in France. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective, non-interventional study included 511 patients planned to be treated in both neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings with a follow-up of 12 months maximum in 101 sites. The safety analyses concerned 505 patients. Primary endpoint was the description of systemic safety and local tolerability of the SC trastuzumab.
resultsThe median age of patients was 58 years. Over the study, 2449 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 422 (83.6%) patients (asthenia, arthralgia, radiation skin injury, myalgia, hot flush and diarrhea in ≥10% of patients): 92 AEs (3.8%) were grade ≥3 (radiation skin injury in 1.8% of patients and febrile neutropenia in 1.4% of patients), 76 (3.1%) were serious (mainly febrile neutropenia in 1.4% of patients) and 336 (13.7%) were treatment-related (mainly injection site pain in 9.1% of patients). Congestive Heart Failure occurred in 58 (11.5%) patients and was related to treatment in 4.6% of patients. Only 34 AEs (1.4%) in 27 (5.4%) patients led to permanent treatment discontinuation. One death was assessed as not treatment-related. Quality of life (QoL) analyses showed no deterioration of global health status.
conclusionThe HERmione study showed that, in a real-life setting, the safety of SC trastuzumab administered in HER2-positive eBC patients is consistent with data reported from previous clinical trials, without new safety concerns or QoL deterioration.
