Mechanism of Action: Herceptin (Trastuzumab)

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Ian Krop, MD, and participants discussed considerations affecting first- and second-line treatment of metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer in the first article of a 2-part series.

In this episode of Emerging Experts, Paolo Tarantino, MD, discusses the latest developments in breast cancer research and treatment.

One new frontier of cancer detection is emerging: metabolomics.

In season 4, episode 2 of Targeted Talks, Sara A. Hurvitz, MD, discusses key advances in the HER2-positive breast cancer space and interesting ongoing research, namely trastuzumab deruxtecan.

The phase 3 EMBER-3 trial showed imlunestrant improved PFS over SOC endocrine therapy in ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer with ESR1 mutations, though not significantly in the overall population.

A phase 2 trial showed ctDNA detection in HR-positive early breast cancer was linked to larger tumors, higher residual cancer burden, and increased recurrence after neoadjuvant endocrine therapy.
