Trastuzumab Deruxtecan in Previously Treated HER2-Positive Breast Cancer.
BACKGROUND Trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201) is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of an anti-HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) antibody, a cleavable tetrapeptide-based linker, and a cytotoxic topoisomerase I inhibitor.

Trastuzumab Mechanism of Action; 20 Years of Research to Unravel a Dilemma
Simple Summary Overexpression of HER2 receptors have been identified in various types of cancer including breast cancer and ovarian cancer. HER2 overexpression is generally associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with HER2-positve tumors ...

This long‐term follow‐up study determined survival rates in a Swedish national cohort of 417 patients with breast cancer who all had neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST). Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was performed before NAST in clinically node‐negative and after NAST in clinically node‐positive patients.

Exceptional and Durable Responses to TDM-1 After Trastuzumab Failure for Breast Cancer Skin Metastases: Potential Implications of an Immunological Sanctuary [PDF]
Breast Cancer (BC) skin metastases represent a challenging clinical scenario. Although they usually arise when other distant metastases are already present, they may also represent a form of locoregional recurrence (LRR). Systemic therapy in this setting

Disrupting Circadian Rhythm via the PER1–HK2 Axis Reverses Trastuzumab Resistance in Gastric Cancer
In trastuzumab-resistant HER2-positive gastric cancer, glycolysis fluctuates with a circadian oscillation regulated by the BMAL1–CLOCK–PER1–HK2 axis, which can be disrupted with a metformin-based chronotherapy to overcome trastuzumab resistance.

A Case of Corneal Melting in a Patient with HER2-Positive Breast Cancer
Trastuzumab is the cornerstone treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer. While ocular side effects are more commonly described after the use of the antibody-drug conjugate ado-trastuzumab emtansine, we here describe corneal melting in a 79-year-old ...

The ErbB2 receptor in gastric cancer. the quick-change artist [PDF]
The ErbB family of receptors is providing the oncogenic signals necessary to cells to become transformed. In gastric cancer (GC) the ErbB2 (HER2) expression is associated with a poor prognosis, but addition of ErbB-targeted therapeutics to chemotherapy ...

Trastuzumab Sensitizes Ovarian Cancer Cells to EGFR-targeted Therapeutics
Background Early studies have demonstrated comparable levels of HER2/ErbB2 expression in both breast and ovarian cancer. Trastuzumab (Herceptin), a therapeutic monoclonal antibody directed against HER2, is FDA-approved for the treatment of both early and
