Revolutionizing triple-negative metastatic breast cancer treatment: sacituzumab Govitecan’s role in advancing chemotherapy

Abstract

Purpose: This review aims to discuss the role and efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan in the management of breast cancer. Summary: Breast cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer among women worldwide. This comprehensive review delves into the advancements brought about by Sacituzumab Govitecan in the treatment of metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). With a focus on its mode of action, efficacious role, clinical trials, and comparative advantages over conventional chemotherapy, the review highlights the therapy’s precision in targeting cancer cells through monoclonal antibodies. Sacituzumab Govitecan’s ability to deliver a chemotherapeutic payload specifically to cancer cells with the Trop-2 receptor sets it apart from traditional chemotherapy, minimizing collateral damage and reducing severe side effects. The impact of Sacituzumab Govitecan on improving progression-free survival, tumor response rates, and, significantly, the quality of life for patients is discussed. This article also sheds light on ongoing trials, FDA recognition, and the therapy’s potential to transform breast cancer treatment. Conclusion: In conclusion, Sacituzumab Govitecan shows potential as an innovative therapeutic option for breast cancer, particularly in metastatic breast cancer and triple-negative breast cancer, but it warrants additional research.
