It is also used after an initial treatment plan to treat HER2-positive early breast cancer which has a high risk of occurring again.

Pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and hyaluronidase-zzxf combination prevents the growth of some tumors that produce extra amounts of a certain substance known as the HER2 protein. It should only be used in patients whose tumors have been shown to produce extra amounts of this protein (HER2 overexpression).
