Ahmet Dirican: Next-Gen Bispecific ADC in HR+/HER2− Metastatic Breast Cancer at ESMO 2026

Ahmet Dirican, Professor of Medical Oncology at Medicana International İzmir Hospital, shared on X:

“ESMO26 Impressive results with a next-generation bispecific ADC!

Phase III PANKU-Breast01: EGFR×HER3-targeting iza-bren improved median PFS in HR+/HER2− metastatic breast cancer (8.2 vs 4.0 months; HR 0.41). However, grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs reached 85.3%.

Key questions:

  • Do ESR1, PIK3CA, or PTEN alterations influence response?
  • What is the impact of prior ADC exposure?”
