ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Initial treatment for hormone-receptor positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC) typically involves endocrine therapy (ET) combined with different targeted agents. When hormonal therapies fail, until recently, the only option available was chemotherapy (ChT), presenting a significant therapeutic challenge. However, the recent introduction of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) has provided new treatment alternatives in this context. Sacituzumab govitecan (SG), a novel trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (Trop-2)-targeting ADC, has been evaluated following disease progression to ET and ChT in HR+/HER2- ABC. AREAS COVERED This review examines the latest clinical trials, including phase I/II and III studies and evaluates the impact of SG on HR+/HER2- ABC. The literature search focused on clinical outcomes, particularly regarding efficacy and safety, comparing them with traditional ChT. EXPERT OPINION SG has demonstrated to be an effective treatment for patients with HR+/HER2- ABC after progression to ET and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDKi) in any setting, and at least two ChT-containing regimens in the advanced setting. With a manageable toxicity profile, SG represents a significant advancement in the treatment landscape for this patient population. However, further research is essential to optimize its application and establish long-term benefits.Palavras-chave
