Preclinical Efficacy and Safety Assessment of an Antibody–Drug Conjugate Targeting the c-RET Proto-Oncogene for Breast Carcinoma

Abstract

RET is broadly expressed in breast cancer specimens and thus represents a potential therapeutic target; Y078-DM1 and Y078-DM4 demonstrated antitumor activity in preclinical models. Optimization of the dosing schedule or an alternate cytotoxic agent with a different mechanism of action may reduce the potential risk of neuropathy. Clin Cancer Res; 21(24); 5552-62. ©2015 AACR.
