Drs Park and Curigliano discuss the DESTINY-Breast06 trial of T-DXd in patients with HER2-low or -ultralow, HR–positive, metastatic breast cancer.
In this episode of Oncology Unplugged, a podcast series from MedNews Week, host Chandler Park, MD, a medical oncologist at the Norton Cancer Institute in Louisville, Kentucky, was joined by Guiseppe Curigliano, MD, PhD, a full professor of medical oncology at the University of Milan, as well as the director of the Early Drug Development Division and co-chair for the Experimental Therapeutics Program at the European Institute of Oncology in Italy.
In this exclusive interview, Drs Park and Curigliano discussed the potential future role of artificial intelligence across oncology disciplines; how advances in precision medicine will help improve patient care; the significance of seeing early research with fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki (T-DXd; Enhertu) evolve into the present era, where the agent is FDA approved for the treatment of patients with HER2-positive solid tumors. They also discussed their insights on data from the phase 3 DESTINY-Breast06 trial (NCT04494425) investigating T-DXd in patients with HER2-low or -ultralow, hormone receptor–positive, metastatic breast cancer.
