  • Trastuzumab emtansine

Trastuzumab emtansine is an antibody and drug conjugate which kills the cancer cells by working on the HER2 pathway. It is a best choice of treatment for patients having HER-2 positive breast cancer.

  • Trastuzumab deruxtecan

Trastuzumab deruxtecan is a conjugate of antibody and drug that kills the cancer cells on HER2 pathway and supplies toxic drugs to tumor cells so that they can burst easily. It works best for patients having advanced HER2 positive breast cancer.
