Fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki injection is also used to treat a certain type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in adults that cannot be removed by surgery or that has spread to other parts of the body after receiving another treatment.

Herceptin is a HER2 inhibitor that is used to treat adjuvant breast cancer, metastatic breast cancer and other conditions as prescribed by your doctor. HER2 (Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2) is a gene found in cancer cells that stimulate these cells to grow. Some breast cancer cells overexpress their HER2 gene, this results in rapid, disorderly growth and division of cancer cells causing the cancer to spread and grow. Herceptin blocks the action of the HER2 gene and slows or stops the growth of the breast cancer. Herceptin may be used alone or in combination with other cancer treatment. It is available as an intravenous injection.
