Liver toxicity of chemotherapy and targeted therapy for breast cancer patients with hepatitis virus infection

Breast cancer patients with HCV can be treated with chemotherapy and targeted therapy with trastuzumab. Breast cancer patients with HBV who accept antiviral therapy can be treated with chemotherapy and targeted therapy with trastuzumab and patients can benefit from prophylactic antiviral therapy before chemotherapy. However, a multidisciplinary cooperation and closely monitoring liver function during the course of chemotherapy may benefit patients.
