SABCS 2023 | Managing ADC-related toxicity in breast cancer

Heather McArthur, MD, MPH, UT Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX, discusses management strategies for adverse events resulting from antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) in patients with breast cancer. Whilst interstitial lung disease can be detected radiographically, early detection is crucial, since only patients with grade 1 interstitial lung disease can be rechallenged. Ocular toxicity, mucositis and stomatitis are additional toxicities, where patients receiving datopotamab deruxtecan, a TROP-2-directed ADC, must additionally have prophylactic mouthwash. This interview took place at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS) congress in San Antonio, TX.
