Activity Overview
TROP2 is an actionable target in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) owing to its high expression on tumor cells and low expression on healthy tissue. TROP2-targeting antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) deliver potent cytotoxic chemotherapy to cancer cells. In this activity, three experts provide guidance on frequently asked questions regarding the use of ADCs in TNBC.
Target Audience
This activity is directed toward medical oncologists, advanced practice providers, nurses, pharmacists, and other health care practitioners who manage patients with breast cancer.
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:
- Develop evidence-based strategies for integrating ADCs in the management of patients with metastatic TNBC
- Apply effective methods to mitigate adverse effects associated with ADCs in patients with metastatic TNBC
