Abstract Only few case reports describe the pregnancy
course and outcome of breast cancer patients, who were
under treatment with trastuzumab at the timeof conception
or who have completed trastuzumab therapy before
becoming pregnant. The HERA trial is a large phase III
randomized clinical trial in which patients with early
HER2-positive breast cancer were randomized to receive 1
or 2 years of trastuzumab or observation following com-
pletion of primary chemotherapy. To examine the effect of
trastuzumab on pregnancy outcome, we report all preg-
nancy events that occurred until March 2010 in patients
enrolled in the study. For the sake of this analysis, patients
were assigned to three groups: (1) pregnancy occurring
during and up to 3 months after trastuzumab exposure
(group 1); (2) pregnancy occurring [ 3 months of last
trastuzumab dose(group 2); and (3) pregnancy occurring in
patients without prior exposure to trastuzumab (group 3).
Sixteen, 45 and 9 pregnancies took place in groups 1, 2,
and 3, respectively. 25 and 16% of patients in groups1 and
2 experienced spontaneous abortion, the former being
higher than figures reported in the general population.
However, short-term fetal outcomeappeared normal across
the three groups. Only 2 congenital anomalies were
reported, one in group 2 and one in group 3. No congenital
anomalies were reported in those exposed to trastuzumab
in utero. This is the first report from a large randomized
trial assessing the effect of trastuzumab on pregnancy
course and outcome. Based on our results, trastuzumab
does not appear to affect fetal outcome in patients who
manage to complete their pregnancy. We are currently
initiating a collaboration to collect similar data from the
other large adjuvant trastuzumab trials to confirm these
findings.

Introduction
One year of adjuvant trastuzumab is the standard of care
for patients with early HER2-positive breast cancer [1–3].
As trastuzumab is not known to cause amenorrhea [4], and
given the rising trend of delaying pregnancy to later in life
[5], patients with child-bearing potential could become
pregnant during or following trastuzumab exposure.
Unlike chemotherapy, the safety profile of trastuzumab
during pregnancy is not well described and limited to few
published case reports [6–10]. The most striking observa-
tion hasbeen theapparent risk of oligo- and anhydramnios,
which resulted in premature delivery, fetal morbidity, and
This study was conducted on behalf of the HERA study team.
This study was presented as a poster presentation at the 2011 San
Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium.

Trastuzumab & the amniotic fluid
Anhydramnios
o Trastuzumab blocks Her-2 expressed in fetal kidney
o It interferes with VEGF signaling responsible for amniotic fluid production and reabsorption

High risk of anhydramnios and fetal morbidity/mortality secondary to trastuzumab administration during pregnancy
N = 153
• Neonatal death = 1
• Neonatal B-cell depletion = 11, neonatal infection = 4
• Congenital malformations = 2 (club foot, cardiac)
Agent Use during pregnancy
Imatinib Avoid during the first trimester. Possible
starting the second trimester
Lapatinib Only one case report. Avoid during the
whole pregnancy period
Bevacizumab and other VEGF
targeting agents
No clinical data but worrying preclinical
evidence. Avoid during pregnancy
Zoledronic acid Induce anomalies in preclinical models,
could affect uterine contraction secondary
to hypocalcemia. Should be avoided
When to consider pregnancy termination ? “Is when you can not balance maternal benefits and fetal risks”
• Delaying standard therapy could seriously affect maternal prognosis (e.g. diagnosis of acute leukemia during 1st trimester)
• Patient is seriously concerned on delaying standard therapy that can not be delivered during pregnancy (e.g. Ca cervix)

Conclusions
1. Offering active treatment during pregnancy is feasible and could provide adequate disease control with comparable outcomes to the non-pregnant settings
Conclusions
2. Offering standard treatments is sometimes not possible, and hence adapting tailored strategies could be needed. Hence a need to engage centres with expertise in this field
Conclusions
3. Pregnancy terminations offers
– no therapeutic advantages
– Psychological detrimental effect on the patient that can be long-lasting
Should not be routinely offered to patients except in exceptional cases
