    Dato-DXd has shown compelling efficacy and a manageable safety profile in clinical trials for various solid tumors.

  • 3

    The FDA approved Dato-DXd for treating HR+/HER2- breast cancer and EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer.

  • 4

    TROP2 is overexpressed in many solid tumors, making it a valuable therapeutic target due to its association with poor prognosis.

  • 5

    Ongoing research aims to optimize Dato-DXd's clinical application, including sequencing strategies and overcoming drug resistance.
