Evolving Treatment Landscape of -mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Trastuzumab Deruxtecan and Beyond.

Successful targeting of -activating mutations in DESTINY-Lung02 phase II study has led to the approval of the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) as second-line treatment in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Despite the impressive results, several matters need to be addressed, including the clinical activity of T-DXd in patients with disease in the central nervous system as well as the role of T-DXd in the context of HER2 overexpression. Additionally, data regarding novel agents used to target HER2 continue to accumulate. This review highlights the challenges and unanswered questions that have emerged after the approval of T-DXd in patients with -mutant NSCLC.
