4. Diagnosis of stage I-IIIB breast cancer
5. Received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (minimum of 3 cycles) and surgical resection (lumpectomy and/or mastectomy)
6. Discovered to have residual disease at least ypT1aNx or ypTxN1mic at surgical resection
7. Candidate for adjuvant chemoradiation as part of standard clinical care
8. Planned initiation of radiation within 12 weeks of their final oncologic surgery

10. Adequate cardiac function, with LVEF greater or equal to 45% (only for patients who will receive TDM-1 therapy)
11. Adequate organ function per the following criteria within 21 days before the start of treatment. If a laboratory value required for study eligibility does not meet the below requirements, the value may be retested.

• Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 k/uL
• Platelets ≥100 k/uL
• Hemoglobin ≥ 10 g/dL
• Serum Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN
• Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (except in patients with Gilbert's disease, where bilirubin to 4x ULN is allowed).
• AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN
• Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN

12. For females and males of reproductive potential: agreement to use adequate contraception during study participation and for an additional 6 months after the end of chemoradiation administration or until advised by their medical oncologist
13. Agreement to adhere to Lifestyle Considerations throughout study duration
