Summary
This trial studies the use of medications after surgery in patients aged 40 and older with a specific type of early-stage breast cancer. These medications help prevent the cancer from coming back by blocking growth signals in cancer cells. Adding another medication to the treatment has been shown to significantly improve patient outcomes.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patient is required to have lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy shows pCR and will complete 1 year of trastuzumab +/- pertuzumab treatment. No radiation, or an omission of radiation, will be given on this arm, including external beam, brachytherapy or intraoperative radiation. Patients will be required to follow up with a medical, surgical, or radiation oncologist every 3 months for 5 years. At these follow up visits, a physical exam will be performed to assess for any disease recurrence. Screening mammogram or MRI is recommended every 6 months for patients on this arm.
Group II: Arm BActive Control1 Intervention
Patient is required to have her-2 positive breast cancer, clinically node negative from exam. Patient will complete neoadjuvant chemotherapy per Medical Oncologist. This arm will undergo lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy shows pCR. The patient will proceed with radiation as standard of care. This arm includes a review of outcomes in the patient's medical chart as well as a collection of biospecimens such as blood and urine, for correlative studies.
Group III: Arm CActive Control1 Intervention
Patient is required to have her-2 positive breast cancer, clinically node negative from exam. patient will complete neoadjuvant chemotherapy per Medical Oncologist. This arm will not undergo lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy shows pCR. The patient will proceed with radiation as standard of care.
