Resumo

Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody–drug conjugate incorporating the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–targeted antitumor properties of trastuzumab with the cytotoxic activity of the microtubule-inhibitory agent DM1. The antibody and the cytotoxic agent are conjugated by means of a stable linker.
