Pertuzumab A biomarker study associated with the TRYPHAENA study, a randomized Phase II study comparing three treatment arms involving pertuzumab and trastuzumab in combination with chemotherapy, showed that patients carrying PIK3CA mutations tended to have a lower p-CR rate compared to patients with wild-type PIK3CA , although the difference did not reach statistical significance. 59 This finding indicates that the addition of pertuzumab may not be sufficient to overcome trastuzumab resistance caused by PIK3CA mutations.
