Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for HER2-Positive Breast Cancer with Central Nervous System Metastasis
Metastasis to the CNS has a very poor prognosis and limited therapeutic response because it is difficult for drugs to cross the blood-brain barrier. However, T-DXd has yielded positive results for BMs in clinical trials. Additionally, a therapeutic effect of T-DXd on ISCM and BMs was observed in the reported cases.
