drug_mechanism_of_action
HER2‑targeted antibody–drug conjugate: the anti‑HER2 mAb binds HER2 on tumor cells, is internalized, and releases the cytotoxic payload MMAE (microtubule inhibitor) after linker cleavage, disrupting tubulin polymerization to induce mitotic arrest and apoptosis; may also mediate ADCC and bystander killing.
