Real‐World Impact of Anti‐HER2 Therapy‐Related Cardiotoxicity in Patients With Advanced HER2‐Positive Breast Cancer

They also noted that cardiac toxicity resolved in the majority of affected patients, and that patients were able to receive further anti‐HER2 therapy without recurrence of the cardiac issues.
