TUKYSA Target & Pathway
ProTarget
A receptor tyrosine kinase that promotes cell growth and division. Approximately 20% of breast cancers overexpress HER2, leading to aggressive tumor growth. Targeting HER2 blocks these growth signals and can trigger immune-mediated destruction of cancer cells.
Pathway Context
HER2 forms dimers with other HER family members to activate growth signaling
A receptor that triggers cell growth, proliferation, and survival when activated. Mutations or overexpression of EGFR drive many cancers, particularly lung cancer. Blocking EGFR stops the growth signals that fuel tumor progression.
