Enhertu + pertuzumab granted Priority Review in the US as 1L treatment for patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer

This marks the first major evolution in treatment in this first-line setting in more than a decade – a setting where a strong response is crucial, as up to one third of patients may not receive second-line therapy.”
