About this trial

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a personalized, risk-stratified surveillance strategy can safely reduce unnecessary cardiac imaging while preserving early detection of treatment-related cardiotoxicity in women with breast cancer (BC) receiving HER2-targeted therapy (HER2-TT).
