, , , ,

Helena A. Yu, MD, initiates a discussion on the role of HER3 in the development of resistance to EGFR-targeted therapies. She also examines the HERTHENA-Lung01 study and analyzes the emerging data from this trial.

  1. Please discuss the role of HER3 in the development of resistance to EGFR targeted therapies. (Manickavasagar, et al. Lung Cancer Mang, 2021; Engelman, et al. Science, 2007
    • Describe the rationale for targeting HER3 in patients with EGFR TKI resistance.
    • What have data shown with treatment strategies using dual targeting of HER3 and EGFR?

  1. Please review the rationale and study design for HERTHENA-Lung01 and discuss emerging study data and its implications on the treatment landscape. (Goto, et al. WCLC 2023. Abstract OA05.03; Johnson, et al. ESMO 2023. Abstract 1319MO)
    • Briefly outline the study design and key endpoints. What are your perceptions around the brain mets data presented at ESMO this past year?
    • What are some key takeaways from safety data?
    • What implications may these findings have on clinical practice?
