Expert Interview

Slingshot members are talking to an expert! The topic is:

Examining the Phase III DESTINY-Breast11 and DESTINY-Breast05 Trials for Enhertu in HER2-Positive Early and Metastatic Breast Cancer from AstraZeneca (AZN)

Ticker(s): AZN

Who's the expert?

A breast cancer oncologist or clinical researcher with expertise in HER2-targeted therapy and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), experienced in interpreting pivotal trial results for early and metastatic HER2-positive disease, and knowledgeable about integrating emerging ADCs into evolving breast cancer care pathways.

Interview Questions
Q1.

How do you interpret the DESTINY-Breast11 data evaluating Enhertu followed by paclitaxel, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab in the neoadjuvant setting? What does this tell us about the potential of ADC-based regimens to move earlier in the treatment paradigm?

Q2.

DESTINY-Breast05 compared Enhertu directly with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in patients with residual invasive disease after neoadjuvant therapy. What stands out to you in terms of efficacy and safety from this head-to-head analysis?

Added By: slingshot_insights
Q3.

Considering the improved outcomes seen in high-risk HER2-positive patients, how might these results influence clinical decision-making for post-neoadjuvant therapy, especially in those with incomplete pathological response?

Q4.

How does Enhertu’s mechanism as a topoisomerase I inhibitor–based ADC contribute to its superior efficacy compared with earlier HER2-targeted therapies?

Added By: slingshot_insights
Q5.

Both DESTINY-Breast11 and DESTINY-Breast05 were presented in the Presidential Symposium at ESMO 2025. How significant is it for a single drug to feature prominently in multiple pivotal studies at this level, and what does that suggest about the strength of the data?

Added By: slingshot_insights
Q6.

What safety considerations remain with Enhertu, particularly regarding interstitial lung disease, and how are clinicians approaching monitoring and management in real-world settings?

Added By: slingshot_insights
Q7.

Given the broad HER2 expression spectrum across tumor types, do you see Enhertu expanding further beyond breast cancer, and what have these latest data shown regarding potential biomarker-driven selection?

Added By: slingshot_insights
Q8.

As Enhertu continues to demonstrate benefit across early and metastatic settings, how do you foresee treatment sequencing evolving—will chemotherapy-based combinations remain central, or could ADCs like Enhertu become the new foundation of HER2-directed care?
