Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test (with a sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL) result within 3 days of enrolment. 8. Men or women of childbearing potential must agree to the use of effective contraceptive for the study duration and for at least 7 months after the last dose of study treatment for women, and at least 4 months for men. 9.

Patient using drugs that could have pharmacokinetics interaction with investigational drugs. Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or OATP 1B inhibitors should be avoided. If concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 or OATP 1B inhibitors is unavoidable, consider delaying T-DXd treatment until the inhibitors have cleared from the circulation (approximately 3 elimination half-lives of the inhibitors) when possible. If a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor or an OATP 1B inhibitor is co-administered and T-DXd treatment cannot be delayed, patients should be closely monitored for adverse reactions. 14. Patient receiving drug that may cause QTc prolongations or cardiac arrhythmia. Pimozide (Orap®) and cisapride (Prepulsid®) are strictly contraindicated: they are associated with a major risk of ventricular rhythm disorder. 15.

Note: Patients, if enrolled, should not receive live vaccine during the study and up to 30 days after the last dose of T-DXd. 16. Participation in a therapeutic clinical study within 4 weeks before enrolment. 17. Patient is currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant 18. Patient has substance abuse history or any other medical conditions such as clinically significant cardiac or psychological conditions, that may, in the opinion of the investigator, interfere with the patient's participation in the clinical study or evaluation of the clinical study results. 19. Person deprived of their liberty or under protective custody or guardianship. 20. Social, familial, or geographic factors that would interfere with study participation or follow-up.
