Women with residual disease following neoadjuvant therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer have inferior long-term outcomes. Now, data from the KATHERINE trial, a phase III open-label study, reveal the superiority of the antibody–drug conjugate trastuzumab emtansine (consisting of trastuzumab conjugated to the cytotoxic microtubule inhibitor emtansine; T-DM1) in improving outcomes in this setting.A total of 1,486 women with nonmetastatic, invasive primary breast cancer with residual disease after neoadjuvant taxane-based chemotherapy plus trastuzumab followed by surgery were randomly assigned (1: 1) to receive 14 cycles, consisting of 3-weekly intravenous doses of adjuvant T-DM1 or trastuzumab. The primary end point was invasive disease-free survival (DFS).
