What are the benefits of antibody-drug conjugates over other available treatments for solid tumours in clinical practice? Antibody-drug conjugate pros and cons1,2 Off-target toxicity Efficient targeting agent Target antigen must be on all tumour Tumour cell specificity cells Nanoscale drug carrier MDRPs can remove released drug from target cell Higher therapeutic index mAb size makes solid tumour Bystander effect penetration difficult mAb, monoclonal antibody; MDRP, multi-drug resistance pump. 1.

Prof. Giuseppe Curigliano Associate Professor of Medical Oncology University of Milan, Milan, Italy When and how would emerging antibody-drug conjugates be incorporated into the treatment paradigm? Sequence of treatment Treatment of HER2+ advanced breast cancer Unsuitable for ChT or with long DFI, Previous treatment with (neo) First line minimal disease burden, and ER+ adjuvant pertuzumab + trastuzumab with a DFI <6–12 months Anti-HER2 + ET Progression Second line T-DM1 (if available) Tucatinib Trastuzumab Trastuzumab Trastuzumab + Trastuzumab Third line + trastuzumab + unused ET deruxtecan lapatinib + unused ChT + capecitabine if ER+ Fourth line Other option not previously used to block HER2 and beyond ADC, antibody-drug conjugate; ChT, chemotherapy; DFI, disease-free interval; ER, oestrogen receptor; HER2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; ET, endocrine treatment. 1.
