PRACTICE AID HER2, HER3, and TROP2 as Therapeutic Targets in Different Cancers

HER2 Aberrations: Clinical Role and Frequency Across Tumor Types1,2

• HER2 is an established therapeutic target in breast and gastric cancer • HER2 alterations, including overexpression, amplifications, and other mutations, are found in a variety of other solid tumors as well • A number of novel HER2-targeted therapies are being evaluated in breast, gastrointestinal, lung, and other cancers, indicating that the role and impact of these therapies will continue to expand, along with the need for broader HER2 testing

ERBB2 amplifications/mutations and HER2 overexpression have been identified in a range of malignancies

Mechanism of Action of Agents Targeting HER21

a. Single-Epitope mAbs b. ADCs c. Bispeci c Antibodies

Inhibition of dimerization Pertuzumab Dual targeting of Promotion of the I II I II Targeted I II receptor Dimerization delivery of and pertuzumab internalization III domain III highly III binding sites and/or Trastuzumab cytotoxic degradation Margetuximab agents IV IV IV Z25 Engagement Cell of ADCC membrane

Direct inhibition of - the downstream domain tyrosine-kinase domain d. Small-Molecule Inhibitors eratinib

Inhibition of PI3-kinase signalling promoting cell-cycle arrest

a. Single-epitope monoclonal antibodies bind HER2 at a single extracellular domain, inhibiting downstream signaling, engaging antibody-dependent cytotoxicity, or inhibiting receptor dimerization b. ADCs also have antitumor effects through these pathways, but they additionally exhibit cytotoxicity by releasing a cytotoxic agent close to HER2-positive tumor cells c. Bispecific antibodies target more than one extracellular region of HER2 d. Small-molecule inhibitors bind the intracellular tyrosine-kinase domain

HER3 and TROP2 as Emerging Therapeutic Targets

HER33 pseudokinase activity, pan-HER approaches, • Crucial heterodimeric partner for other EGFR HER3 ADCs, and HER3 nanobiologic therapeutic family members approaches; select examples: U3-1402 (HER3- • Potential to regulate EGFR/HER2-mediated targeting ADC) and MCLA-128 (HER2–HER3 resistance bispecific antibody) • Enhanced expression associated with several cancers, including lung, breast, ovarian, prostate, TROP24,5 gastric, bladder, melanoma, colorectal, and • Transmembrane glycoprotein overexpressed in squamous cell carcinoma many different tumors, including lung, breast, • Implicated in contributing to treatment failure pancreatic, cervical, ovarian, colorectal, and through activation of PI3K/AKT, MAPK/ERK, and gastric cancers JAK/STAT pathways • Membrane bound with an extracellular domain • HER3-targeting investigational therapies: • Effectively internalized with binding antibody mono and bispecific antibodies targeting • High expression correlates with poor prognosis HER3 at multiple subdomains; miscellaneous • Rational therapeutic target; TROP2-targeting HER3-targeting therapies, including antisense investigational therapies: DS-1062, sacituzumab oligonucleotides, HER3-specific peptide govitecan (IMMU-132), and PF-06664178 vaccines, traps, molecules targeting HER3
