An investigational antibody-drug conjugate proved active and safe for patients with previously treated HER2-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a phase II trial from China showed.

Drugs designed to target HER2-postive breast cancer could also benefit some patients with bile duct cancer, according to results of a patient trial to be presented on Thursday at the 36th EORTC ...

What’s even more exciting is that this drug also works for people with lower levels of HER2 (called HER2-low cancers), which means it could help even more patients in the future.

A bispecific antibody has entered the HER2 fray with a differentiated profile from traditional agents and a chance to challenge AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo’s star antibody-drug conjugate Enhertu.
