Experts on breast cancer discuss the potential adverse events related to trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd).

Panelists discuss how to manage side effects of sacituzumab govitecan (SG), including counseling on alopecia, proactive management strategies, routine antiemetic premedications, and adjustments for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, as well as recommended breakthrough antinausea medications for home use.

Panelists discuss how to manage sacituzumab govitecan therapy, including absolute neutrophil count cutoffs for dose adjustments, handling febrile neutropenia, comparing diarrhea rates to clinical trials, identifying risk factors, and strategies for managing SG-related diarrhea.

This discussion focuses on strategies to manage neutropenia associated with SG, including the use of prophylactic growth factors and timing of their administration, comparing management approaches between clinicians.

This discussion explores the occurrence and risk factors of neutropenia associated with SG treatment, comparing clinical practice experiences with trial data.

Medical experts discuss the distinct mechanisms and components of different antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), including the drug, antibody, and linker, and how these components contribute to the mechanisms of ADC-related toxicities.

Medical experts review the currently available antibody-drug conjugates for breast cancer, including Sacituzumab govitecan (Trop-2 directed ADC), Kadcyla (ado-trastuzumab emtansine, T-DM1, HER2-directed ADC), and Enhertu (fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki, T-DXd, HER2-directed ADC).
