Chairperson’s Perspective: HER2 in Solid Tumors – From Pathology to Personalized Treatment Plans
About this episode
Dr. Kathleen Moore discusses the significance of HER2 in solid tumors and its implications for treatment strategies.
Faculty: Kathleen N. Moore, MD, MS Dr. Kathleen Moore reviews the clinical significance of HER2 expression across diverse solid tumors and its role in guiding treatment decisions. She outlines HER2 testing methodologies, including immunohistochemistry (IHC), to identify patients with advanced solid tumors who may benefit from HER2-targeted antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs). Dr. Moore summarizes key data from trials such as DESTINY-PanTumor02, DESTINY-Lung01, and DESTINY-CRC02 that supported tumor-agnostic approval of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) for previously treated metastatic HER2-positive (IHC 3+) solid tumors, along with strategies for proactive monitoring and management of ADC-associated adverse events.
