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. =
