Summary: This study characterized the pharmacokinetics of Trastuzumab deruxtecan in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer or other solid tumor malignancies. Results showed no significant differences in steady-state exposure of the drug in different patient populations, suggesting that dose adjustment based on specific patient characteristics is not necessary.

Summary: Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has been approved for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer and gastric cancer, with the 5.4 mg/kg every-3-weeks dosage justified based on exposure-efficacy analysis. Intact T-DXd area under the concentration-time curve was significantly associated with objective response rate, while no significant exposure-response relationships were observed for duration of response or progression-free survival. Higher exposure to T-DXd or released drug was correlated with increased adverse events, suggesting a dose-response relationship with higher ORR and toxicity at 6.4 mg/kg compared to 5.4 mg/kg.

Summary: SHR-A1201, an ADC combining trastuzumab with DM1, was investigated for its safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer. The phase I study enrolled 12 patients and administered SHR-A1201 at various doses, with most treatment-emergent adverse events being mild to moderate in severity. The maximum tolerated dose of SHR-A1201 was found to be no lower than that of T-DM1, and the drug exhibited typical ADC pharmacokinetics. The study showed promising antitumor effects and confirmed the tolerability and safety of SHR-A1201.

Summary: LCB-ADC exhibits higher cytotoxicity compared to T-DM1 and effectively inhibits tumor growth in animal models with HER2 high expression. Furthermore, LCB-ADC demonstrates good efficacy in suppressing tumor growth in HER2-positive gastric cancer PDX model and T-DM1-resistant models.

Summary: P-cadherin is overexpressed in solid tumors, and PF-06671008 shows antitumor activity by engaging P-cadherin and CD3 epsilon. This phase 1 study evaluates the safety and tolerability of PF-06671008 and provides insights into managing immune-related adverse events. Limited antitumor activity and cytokine release syndrome were observed.

Summary: Triple-positive breast tumors overexpress HER2 and are positive for HR expression. ER expression affects the response to anti-HER2 and associated systemic therapies. Optimizing dual anti-HER2 blockade is important for disease control in triple-positive tumors.

Summary: MEDI4276 is a biparatopic tetravalent antibody targeting two nonoverlapping epitopes in subdomains 2 and 4 of the HER2 ecto-domain, demonstrating enhanced cellular internalization and cytolysis of HER2-positive tumor cells. In a first-in-human clinical trial, MEDI4276 showed clinical activity but intolerable toxicity at doses >0.3 mg/kg.

Summary: HER2 overexpression is associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer, with HER2-targeted therapies, such as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), showing promising results in treating HER2-positive breast cancer. The development of ADCs leveraging the high specificity of HER2-targeted monoclonal antibodies with cytotoxic small molecules represents a significant advancement in the management of the disease.

Summary: The therapeutic management of HER2-positive malignancies involves using HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), which release cytotoxic chemicals causing DNA damage and cell death. Combining DNA damage repair inhibitors with HER2-targeted ADCs shows synergistic anticancer effects in HER2-positive cancer cells. DS-8201, in combination with PARPi (AZD2281) and ATRi (BAY1895344), inhibits HER2-positive cancer cell growth, induces DNA damage and apoptosis, and has significant antitumor activity.
