HER2-Selective and Reversible Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Tucatinib Potentiates the Activity of T-DM1 in Preclinical Models of HER2-positive Breast Cancer.

Abstract

The preclinical findings in breast cancer models presented here demonstrate that combining tucatinib with T-DM1 enhances the antitumor activity of either agent alone, supporting clinical studies of the combination in HER2-positive breast cancer, including in patients with brain metastases, which remains an important unmet medical need.
