ESMO21 Expert Video Report on targeting in HER2-positive metastatic breast and lung cancers

Reporting from the ESMO Congress 2021, Michail Ignatiadis discusses results from the DESTINY-Breast03 and DESTINY-Lung1 studies performed in the metastatic setting and testing the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan. He describes outstanding results in patients with HER2-positive tumours, with manageable toxicity, although the occurence of pneumonitis needs to be monitored, particularly in lung cancer patients.

Abstracts:

  • LBA1 - Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) vs Trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) in Patients (Pts) With HER2+ Metastatic Breast Cancer (mBC): Results of the Randomized, Phase 3 Study DESTINY-Breast03 - Dr Javier Cortés, ES
  • LBA45 - Primary Data from DESTINY-Lung01: A Phase 2 Trial of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) in Patients (Pts) With HER2-Mutated (HER2m) Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) - Dr Bob Li, US
