Abstract
Breast cancer remains the most common malignancy and one of the leading causes of cancer-related death among women worldwide. Advances in antibody-based therapies have improved outcomes across all biological subtypes: HER2-positive, triple-negative, and luminal breast cancer. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab and pertuzumab have established HER2-targeted therapy as a standard of care, while immune checkpoint inhibitors have introduced immunotherapy into the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer. The emergence of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), including trastuzumab deruxtecan, sacituzumab govitecan, and datopotamab deruxtecan, has further expanded the available therapeutic options. Bispecific antibodies represent a new generation of agents with the potential to overcome resistance and enhance immune activation. Despite impressive progress, important challenges remain, including resistance mechanisms and the management of treatment-related toxicities. This review summarizes the biological rationale, clinical evidence, resistance mechanisms, and safety profiles of therapies based on monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates in breast cancer. The development of these treatment modalities fosters the implementation of personalized, immunologically informed treatment strategies that are redefining precision oncology in breast cancer.
