Abstract

Triple negative breast cancer is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer and has traditionally lacked targeted therapies leading to worse prognosis in most patients. We will review new targeted therapies for triple negative breast cancer including immunotherapy, antibody-drug conjugates, and poly (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. Immunotherapy is now a backbone of PD-L1 positive metastatic triple negative breast cancer in the front-line setting as well as part of neoadjuvant therapy for high risk localized triple negative breast cancer. PARP inhibitors and a new antibody-drug conjugate are additional new therapies that can be used to improve the outcome for localized and metastatic triple negative breast cancers. None of these treatments were available before the review period for this paper.
