If it is in a <DataTemplate> best bind your action to Command and CommandParameter inside your ViewModel

<Button Command="{Binding myCommand}"
        CommandParameter="{Binding Extra}"
        x:Name="mybutton" Width="200" Height="50"/>

Full example using a ListView / MVVM

MVVM ListView + Command Button
