Mohammad Jahanzeb, MD, professor of Clinical Medicine, Hematology/Oncology, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, discusses the future of adjuvant treatment in HER2-positive breast cancer.
The mainstay of this disease is HER2 blockade, says Jahanzeb. The future of adjuvant therapy, he adds, is not just a single HER2-targeted agent, but either dual antibody or an antibody followed by a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
The chemotherapy that is combined with this is less important, and patients with smaller tumors will not need to be administered combination chemotherapy, says Jahanzeb.
