Introduction to Kadcyla 100mg Injection

Kadcyla 100mg Injection is a specialized treatment indicated for both early and metastatic breast cancer, specifically targeting tumors that express human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2).


Uses of Kadcyla 100mg Injection

Kadcyla 100mg Injection is prescribed for:

Treatment of HER-2 positive early breast cancer.

Management of HER-2 positive metastatic breast cancer that has not responded to previous cancer therapies.


Benefits of Kadcyla 100mg Injection

Effectively targets HER-2 positive breast cancer cells, inhibiting their growth and spread.

Provides a targeted treatment option for patients resistant to other cancer medications.

Improves progression-free survival and overall treatment outcomes in advanced breast cancer.


Mechanism of Action of Kadcyla 100mg Injection

Kadcyla 100mg Injection combines trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody that targets HER-2 receptors, with DM1, a cytotoxic agent. Trastuzumab binds specifically to HER-2 receptors on cancer cells, delivering DM1 directly to the cancer cells. DM1 disrupts microtubule networks essential for cell division, leading to cell death and regression of HER-2 positive tumors.
