Information for the public

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu) is not normally available on the NHS for treating HER2-low metastatic or unresectable breast cancer in adults:

  • after chemotherapy for metastatic cancer or
  • if the cancer has recurred during adjuvant chemotherapy or within 6 months of finishing it.

Your doctor should talk with you about other treatment options. If you are already having it, you should be able to continue until you and your doctor decide when best to stop.
