New treatment cuts risk of disease progression or death in HER2-positive breast cancer by 44%.
A new study shows that a combination of T-DXd and pertuzumab significantly reduces the risk of disease progression or death in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, compared to the current standard treatment.
This form of breast cancer, which accounts for 15-20% of cases, hasn't seen major advancements in over a decade.
The new treatment, which targets cancer cells directly, reduced the risk of progression or death by 44% and improved median progression-free survival to 40.7 months, compared to 26.9 months with standard care.
These findings could lead to a new first-line therapy and are expected to be submitted to regulators worldwide.
