Ian E. Krop, MD, PhD, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses phase II trial findings on trastuzumab deruxtecan, a HER2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who were previously treated with trastuzumab emtansine (Abstract GS1-03).

Joseph Sparano, MD: The William L. McGuire Memorial Lecture

Joseph Sparano, MD, of the Montefiore Medical Center, discusses three challenges:

  • How can gene-expression profiles and other diagnostic tests be used to guide the use of adjuvant systemic therapy?
  • Is it time to reappraise active surveillance?
  • Are there diagnostic and therapeutic strategies that can identify tumors at highest risk of metastasis, and novel therapies that can block the spread of disease?

Nadine M. Tung, MD, on HER2-Negative Breast Cancer: INFORM Trial of Cisplatin vs Doxorubicin/Cyclophosphamide

Nadine M. Tung, MD, of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, discusses cisplatin vs doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC) as neoadjuvant treatment in BRCA-mutation carriers with HER2-negative breast cancer. Although cisplatin as a single agent shows activity in this setting, the pathologic complete response with this agent alone is not higher than that with standard AC chemotherapy (Abstract GS6-03).
