New, modern antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as promising additions to the treatment arsenal for patients with lung cancer, with the first HER2-targeting ADC recently gaining FDA approval for patients with unresectable or metastatic NSCLC whose tumors have HER2 mutations. Clinical trials are also underway with novel ADCs targeting HER3, TROP2, CEACAM5, and MET, among others, and have been yielding encouraging results to date. What are the unique structural and mechanistic features as well as efficacy and safety profiles of these ADCs? Where are they likely to best fit in the NSCLC treatment algorithms? What practical considerations should be taken into account when integrating these therapies into treatment plans? These and other topics are explored in this unique educational activity, based on a recent live symposium, in which experts compete to answer a series of challenge questions that frame explanatory evidence and panel discussions focused on the growing role and impact of ADCs in the treatment of NSCLC. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Discuss the clinical importance and biologic rationale for targeting of HER2, HER3, TROP2, and other alterations with novel ADCs in lung cancer; Summarize the characteristics, mechanisms of action, and latest safety and efficacy of ADCs targeting HER2, HER3, TROP2, and other alterations in NSCLC; Apply the latest evidence and guidelines on patient assessment in NSCLC, including biomarker testing as indicated, to identify patients for novel ADCs and other targeted therapies; and Implement multidisciplinary and patient-centric approaches to effectively and safely integrate HER2-, HER3-, and TROP2-targeted and other novel ADCs into treatment plans for appropriate patients with NSCLC
