Optimizing treatment management of trastuzumab deruxtecan in clinical practice of breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) targets human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and has been evaluated in patients with HER2-positive unresectable/metastatic breast cancer in the phase II DESTINY-Breast01 trial (NCT03248492; DS8201-A-U201) and the randomized phase III DESTINY-Breast03 trial (NCT03529110; DS8201-A-U302). Approximately 20 additional studies are ongoing in breast cancer, including HER2-low breast cancer, and other solid tumor types within the DESTINY trial program. T-DXd has demonstrated a generally manageable safety profile, with low-grade hematologic and gastrointestinal adverse events (AEs) among the most common; interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis has been observed in patients receiving T-DXd and can be sever
