Sacituzumab Govitecan in the Treatment of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: Present and Future
摘要
This review focuses on clinical trials of sacituzumab govitecan (SG) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC)-an aggressive subtype with high recurrence, mortality, and poor prognosis-aiming to systematically analyze SG’s safety profile and clarify the future prospects of antibody-drug conjugate (ADC)-based therapies for this disease.
Recent FindingsSG, a trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (Trop-2)-targeted ADC with a monoclonal antibody conjugated to SN-38, has transformed TNBC treatment. Latest phase II/III trials, which have led to its approval in many regions, confirm its efficacy in improving overall survival; most induced adverse events, though common, are manageable with timely and proper clinical interventions.
SummarySG expands treatment options for TNBC patients, offering new hope by enabling precise, targeted drug delivery that minimizes off-target toxicity. Its favorable risk-benefit profile supports wider clinical application, and it also guides the design of next-generation ADCs, laying a foundation for more effective TNBC therapies.
