Trastuzumab
trastuzumab: Trastuzumab (Herceptin®) IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
laboratory biomarker analysis: Blood is collected every 6 weeks during treatment. Samples are assessed for plasma cardiac markers (N-terminal brain natriuretic protein and troponin-I) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α).
adjuvant therapy: Patients receive trastuzumab (Herceptin®) IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 52 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
quality-of-life assessment: Patients complete Quality of Life and Quality of Health and Comprehensive Geriatric assessments of functional, cognitive, and mental status changes at baseline, weeks 26, and 52.

Timeframe: From Baseline to mid-treatment (week 26)Quality of life was assessed by using the mean change in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACTB) scoring instrument. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B) is a 37-item instrument designed to measure five domains of HRQOL in breast cancer patients: Physical, social, emotional, and functional well-being, as well as a breast-cancer subscale (BCS). Each question response is based on a 5-point Likert-type scale. Scores range from 0-148. High scores indicate better QOL.

Mean Change in ADL/IADL scores From Baseline to Mid-treatment. The functional status will be measured by a Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment comprised of two validated instruments: Katz's Activity of Daily Living (ADL) instrument and Lawton's Instrumental of Activities of Daily Living (IADL). The IADL scale contains eight items with a summary score from 0 (low function) to 8 (high function), with higher scores indicating higher function. The ADL scale contains six items with a summary score of 0 to 6, with higher scores indicating higher independence. A score of 6 indicates complete independence; a score of 4 indicates moderate impairment; 2 or less indicates severe functional impairment. The scores of both scales will be added together for a comprehensive geriatric assessment score.

The maximum score is 30. A score of 23 or lower is indicative of cognitive impairment. The higher the score, the better the participant's function (Scores 30-24 indicate uncertain cognitive impairment; scores 23-18 indicate mild to moderate cognitive impairment; scores 17-0 indicate severe cognitive impairment).

Mean Change in Geriatric Depression Scores From Baseline to Mid-treatment. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) is a validated tool with 15 items. The minimum score is 0, and the maximum is 15. Scores of 0-4 are considered normal, depending on age, education, and complaints; 5-8 indicate mild depression; 9-11 indicate moderate depression; and 12-15 indicate severe depression.

Mean Change in MOS social support scores From Baseline to Mid-treatment. The Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) Social Support survey tool measures multiple domains. It is a 19-item tool comprised of four subscales in one overall summary index. The subscales are Emotional/Informational Support, Tangible Support, Affectionate support, and Positive Social Interaction. The overall index score is determined by calculating the mean of all 19 items. Scores range from 19 to 95, with higher scores indicating high support availability to participants.

Mean Change in Mini Nutrition Assessment scores From Baseline to Mid-treatment. The Mini Nutritional Screening is a scale comprised of six questions. The sum of the six questions is totaled to determine a score which is designed to assess if there is a risk of malnutrition. The highest score possible, 14, indicated no risk, and the minimum score of 0 indicates the highest risk possible. 12 points or greater is considered no risk or normal. Meanwhile, a score below 11 indicates possible malnutrition.
