Evaluation of Ile655Val HER2 polymorphism associated with cardiac toxicity following the administration of trastuzumab in women with breast cancer.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
634 Background: Trastuzumab is well tolerated without major side effects except for cardiac toxicity. Although a number of clinical parameters have been associated with trastuzumab-associated cardiac toxicity (TACT), there is some indication that genetic variation of the HER2 gene may play a toxic role in a population of metastatic breast cancer patients. However, this finding needs confirmation and we looked at a population of non-metastatic breast cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the association between cardiac toxicity and HER2 [Ile655Val] polymorphism in non-metastatic breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab. Methods: The Ile655Val HER2 polymorphism was assessed in 73 women using TaqMan technology. For this study, the genotyping was performed using DNA extracted from normal breast tissue located at more than 1 cm of any other lesions. Charts review was used to collect information on TACT which was defined as any decline in LVEF > 10 % from the baseline to < 55 % or a decline in LVEF > 5 % to < 50 % (lower limit of normal). The Fisher exact test was used to evaluate the association between cardiac toxicity and HER2 polymorphism. Results: No deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium has been observed for the allele and genotype frequencies. The distribution of HER2 polymorphism was 3 Val/Val (4%), 18 Ile/Val (25%) and 52 Ile/Ile (71%). In this population, 19% (14/73) developed a cardiac toxicity. We found that 29% (6/21) of Ile/Val or Val/Val carriers compared to 15% (8/52) of Ile/Ile carriers showed TACT, but this association did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.21). Conclusions: HER2 Ile655Val polymorphism may be an efficient marker of TACT considering this tendency with this small cohort of patients. Larger sample is needed to strengthen this conclusion, since this result may influence on prescribing decision for adjuvant chemotherapy and anti-HER2 therapy in HER2 positive patients.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
