Improved knowledge of the biologic pathways, along with a number of new targeted therapies, has resulted in better outcomes for patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. These new therapies have been used in combination with older treatments to optimize patient outcomes. Read More ›

PARP inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors have changed the breast cancer landscape, with trials that show improved progression-free survival and overall survival. Read More ›

Two new antibody–drug conjugates with a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload have recently been added to the therapy options for patients with metastatic TNBC and HER2-positive breast cancer. Read More ›

In October 2021, trastuzumab deruxtecan was granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation by the FDA in the United States for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who have received ≥1 previous anti-HER2–based regimens. Read More ›

SASCIA was a phase 3 trial evaluating sacituzumab govitecan, an antibody–drug conjugate that received accelerated approval from the FDA in 2020 for the treatment of patients with metastatic TNBC who have received ≥2 previous therapies for metastatic disease. Read More ›

Sacituzumab govitecan is an effective new medication for people with metastatic TNBC that is well-tolerated. The most prevalent side effects seen in individuals with metastatic TNBC using sacituzumab govitecan are similar to those seen with chemotherapy and can be managed with early, proactive intervention.

Along with surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy, immunotherapy has emerged as the fifth pillar of cancer treatment and is revolutionizing cancer treatment across the board. Read More ›

Treatment with ICIs in metastatic TNBC has shown encouraging results. Immunotherapy has shifted the paradigm of cancer treatment and opened new research opportunities. TNBC is characterized by immunologic activation while being the most common subtype of breast cancer. Read More ›

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is becoming more popular for patients with locally advanced breast cancer. Downstaging may result in a smaller surgical extent or a higher breast conservation rate, and a better cosmetic outcome. Chemotherapy, on the other hand, has both short- and long-term complications.
