KADCYLA is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) combining trastuzumab with the microtubule-disrupting agent emtansine, designed to deliver cytotoxic payload directly to HER2-positive cancer cells. It is approved for HER2-positive breast cancer, including metastatic disease and as adjuvant therapy. The mechanism exploits HER2 overexpression to achieve targeted cytotoxicity while minimizing systemic exposure.
