Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), given postoperatively for 14 cycles to patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2-positive) early breast cancer (EBC) who failed to achieve a pathological complete response after standard chemotherapy and HER2 blockade, represents probably the greatest progress in the management of this aggressive form of breast cancer since the adjuvant trastuzumab pivotal trials. This article addresses the rationale behind the conception of the KATHERINE trial, T-DM1’s structure and pharmacokinetics data, clinical efficacy data of the KATHERINE trial and of other EBC trials with T-DM1, safety aspects, implications of the KATHERINE trial results to clinical practice and future perspectives in the management of HER2-positive EBC.
